Yes, all those playlists are in rotation now. I’m not sure about the double XP, the in-game message (of the day) says it is active, but even in the featured arena playlist, Holiday Fiesta, I am only getting around 8,000 XP, and that is with a Mission: Victory boost. Assuming the Global Double XP plus the double XP from the ‘featured’ playlist stacks, I should be getting more, no? Unless Arena XP gains really are that low…

Yes, Arena XP gains really are that low… even with boosts. I haven’t seen anything to confirm when the last day of the even is, but I definitely plan on taking full advantage of the xp and playlists!!

Yeah even with the double XP gains are still pretty low (at least for Arena). Legendary XP boost packs are back in the REQ store in case ya’ll need a little extra XP. I know I do still about 12.6 mil away from 152 lol.

Nice on legendary XP REQs. Those plus double XP should help some ppl out. I don’t have time, but go fight the good fight gents. I will sink some time in.

Also, agree I wish Arena gave more XP. My personal favorite game type.

To be fair, Holiday Fiesta games tend to be SUPER quick a lot of the time, if game lasts a bit over 5 minutes or longer, you’ll most likely get 10 or even 11K from a legendary boost, and close to 10K with a mission victory. Shorter though and you’ll get results of like what ya said.

Broey Broe, do featured Playlist give more XP than Warzone though? I’m always cautious on burning Legendary XPs in wrong areas.

MWFF with legendary xp boost is the best way to go if you are looking to min/max your time

My bad they are working.

You likely selected a boost for a specific task (most Spartan / AI kills, etc)

Featured Arena Playlists do not, but I would say both types of legendary boosts work in different scenarios. Arena XP Legendary Boosts may give less, roughly about 10K if you play the featured playlists but they make up for how fast games can be, Warzone boosts give out a lot more with the way heroic firefight’s double xp right now, they give you about 21 to 23K a game, but they take a bit longer to do. I will say Infection is a pretty good playlist to play when global double xp is a thing, you can get 13K most of the time and if you play better, sometimes even 15K. During this month it’s mainly what you’d like to play to be honest haha. But I would reccomend playing Holiday Fiesta, Warzone Firefight, Mythic Firefight (If you got a team for it) and on occasion infection (Unless you absolutely adore it of course).

I’m not getting double xp? Anyone else?

Thanks for the input sWEATYnSHAKeY & Broey Broe. I’m not chasing 152, but will have some fun trying to gain some ranks before Jan 4th.

Also, KevinKoolX on YT, made a video & spreadsheet on how many games per day you’d need to play per day to reach 152. Pretty awesome nerdy. Link: Can YOU Get Rank 152 in Halo 5 Before Halo Infinite Release Date? Halo Infinite 152 Reward! - YouTube
