Increased Quest XP Holiday Weekend! 11/25 - 11/30 - Link
Frelorn just announced this over on the official forums:

On Wednesday November 25th we will be increasing the amount of XP earned on all quests by 50% until Monday November 30th.

Since we had done many increased XP weekends in the past, we thought having some incentive for the questers would be a nice change. We will of course still be having straight up increased XP weekends in the future.

Have fun!
