No.  Unless it goes back to the old system.  Under the current system it'd be leeching paradise.  Hell I'd even leave my toons in there overnight while I slept in order to get the freebie xp, even if it was reduced.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

I dont know if its possible to have old system on duel and new on the rest.
But there shouldnt be any gold cause there shouldnt be upkeep on duel.

Yes please, i only went archer because they removed this, and as 2h its no fun getting triple teamed (or triple teaming another hapless person) I just like one on one fights while levelling my char.

Wut? That's the most fun thing as a 2h, fighting multiple enemies.

To each his own, Xant. Regardless, dueling has always granted a bit of xp, as far as I know, and I don't think that should change in this patch. Perhaps they could simply do the following:

1. Write a script that gives a tick of 1x/2x XP to everyone on the duel server every minute, after checking to see if your character has the "dueled" flag.
2. If you have the flag, you get xp and the script removes the flag.
3. If you don't have the flag, you get no XP tick.
4. Dueling adds the "dueled" flag to your character.

OR

Just return the old XP system for duels. You kill someone? You get a bit of gold and xp.

Duels should give XP per kill depending on the opponents level, like before the patch. You should get only XP, not gold, because there is no upkeep for duels.

I've got a solution...

Just give the regular 1000xp, 50 gold per minute, as long as you've won a duel in the last minute or two.  That way you can't simply go AFK for it, and it's never going to be more profitable than the main servers.

I just can't think of a way that multipliers could be implemented to the duel server without obvious ways to abuse the system.

Xp on the duel server would be great.  Either Camaris or John's solution would work well for me.

Auto-hotkey script to walk around spamming LMB and pressing F every second.  Get a buddy to join the duel server when he goes to bed as well and voila.  Not super efficient but it'd work.  And hell we're gamers.  We'll find a way to exploit anything.  Look at how we broke DarkFail with our macro'ing awesomeness in order to afk-grind while sleeping/working.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?
