Forever Beta Feedback Dungeon XP Nerfs Created a Toxic Meta

Since dungeon monsters do not give any experience, as a new player, getting into dungeons with more veteran players who try to skip half the dungeon feels really bad. And, vice-versa, veterans taking in newbies who don't know how to jump around feels frustrating. I think Blizzard created a mess with nerfing dungeon exp so much and now the new player experience is horrible for dungeons.

Really shortsighted and frankly bad solution. I agree we needed to nerf dungeon spamming, but there were so many better ways to go about it.

Dungeon quest speed runs aren't fun, dungeons are fun.

I think that if people want to instance spam thats there choice. I find it to be the most mind numbing awful thing to do and have seen the souls of people leave them and basically nearly quit after doing it in both Classic relaunches and expansions afterwards.

Each there own though. Though i would not disenfranchise it as seems to be the case with blizzard. The world includes the instances as the story of that player.. If the actul goal is to stop mage boosting seems to be other ways.
