    Can we get some mini-event weekends?

    It would be really cool if you guys could add some small event incentives on random weekends independent of your special events. Just add little boons to random game play elements for a weekend. Here are some examples.

    3 day event suggestions Friday-Saturday

    Double drops weekend
    This weekend event makes all monsters whether field monsters, or dungeon and trial chests drop twice the loot. So hunters can get twice the materials, and pony/bird/wolf trial farmers have an increased chance to get their mount.

    Double wolf marks weekend
    Self explanatory. Get more wolf marks from pvp

    Double tomes weekend.
    Gear up just a tiny bit faster this weekend.

    Double Hunt Seals weekend
    Get more seals for your hunt efforts.

    Black Friday Sale Weekend
    All vendors whether the item vendor in Quarymill, or the tomes vendor in Mor Dhona/ Idyllshire/ Rhalgr's reach have discounted wares.

    Double MGP saucer weekends
    Get your saucer fix this weekend. Different from event since the related event NPC's and items are not included.

    EDIT:

    I don't know why I forgot something so obvious! Absolutely!

    Double XP Weekend


    So these are just suggestions, don't have to use all or any of them, but it would be nice to see small community shake-ups in Eorzea outside of official seasonal events. I've seen other MMO's implement things like this, and it could see spikes in community activity during these weekends, like shorter pvp queues, larger groups running hunts, or more party finder groups running trial mount farms. If anyone has other suggestions feel free to add!

    I would love to see this happen, good idea. This is probably the only thing that I like from F2P games.

    of course it is but having some buffs during the weekend wouldnt hurt anyone especially since there usually is higher login numbers on weekends

    Monthly updates bringing more original and thought-out content that here is not what I would call a dead game.

    Regarding OP, I'm sure Yoshida would come up with a stupid excuse not to implement this, as usual. Good idea though.

    Why not, it sounds reasonable. Then...

    I like this. I don't see why people always refrain from improving already successful stuff.

    If they did double xp weekends it might actually entice me to level more alt-jobs with the extra time I have on those days.
