There are some skills that training DXP time with is not ideal, not many, but some.
If you saved up a collection of artifacts it is, and I'd argue if you can do that you are getting way too much exp, but if you haven't you're not getting enough for the time you spend with DXP active. Farming is another skill that if you train with DXP active it is time being wasted for the most part. Slayer is to a lesser extent, and Dungeoneering to a much greater extent.
So my suggestion is that for skills where the exp is sporadic, when you have your DXP being consumed for these skills, each usage of these skills consumes a certain amount of time and then stops until it consumes time again. Otherwise if these skills are being trained with DXP their time is being wasted with lots of inactivity in between benefits.

It is a process of making it better each time, and I believe this is a way to do that for next time.
For almost all of the skills it is great though. But these skills could use a different way of consuming DXP time so if people want to train them with the DXP period they can.

Maybe you're given an option between types of skills, and you have an allotted amount of times given that you can switch between before the count reaches 0. And perhaps if the amount of times are used, you may train a normal skill for that period after, and the pause would be a separate thing entirely, but after you've used the switch between skill types the allotted amount of times, you have to wait 3 hours for the amount to refresh. This is not an exact suggestion, just an example for how it could be done.

That makes no sense what so ever first off arch doesn't count for dxp all it does for arch is double excavation rate(and same for invention it gives double lvl progress rather than double XP for disassembling stuff) which means faster gathering of artifacts it doesn't effect the over all xp u gain and with farming u can easily hit 120 or 200m with enough insta grow pots on dxp planting a specific tree (idr which exactly but it's crazy xp) so it's not wasted on farming either nor is it wasted on dg since ur running around a dungeon killing/gathering a lot of stuff plus with dung cards u can easily clear 1m xp per high lvl floor and there's plenty of people willing to use the cards for that exact reason even without the cards on low floors u still get a lot of xp per floor not just in dg itself so it seems perfectly fine the way it is to me

Didn't know about the 2x the speed thing. That sounds more useful than I thought.
Farming I suppose you have it spread out over a good length of time so you can do a Farm run at the beginning or end before you pause and decide what to do next. As it is a good amount of exp when the spurts do come.

no theyve changed the way dxp works. its now more useful for most people. it use to be 72 hours thats it. and thats not 72 hours to be paused it was just a weekend.

definitely doesnt need a change.

with what you have responded with, id recommend reading about how dxp works and what works with it and what doesnt.

I still think it does, as far as arch goes at least and farming if there are these insta grow things you are either abusing dxp or being abused by it. If you save up a stash of either artifacts or those, then exp should take time off after a certain amount of exp is had. If you're training arc or farming normally you are either pausing while working on getting an artifact and resuming only to waste time saving for another artifact, even if the 2x the speed thing is true, it's not enough to merit the time spent in dxp mode, because the time would still be way more productive if spent on restoring an artifact. So like I say these sporadic skills are either abusing or being abused by dxp and there is no in between, it needs to find a balance where it isn't getting abused nor abusing with dxp time spent.
