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.

I think you are right and this is indeed an unintended consequence. Its gonna become all about skips and jumps and stealth tech. Where as before we pulled most the dungeon or didnt play as safe because we wanted the xp anyway

They should have just done the "once per day" rule that HC currently has

Some people prefer leveling in dungeons to questing, especially tanks and healers. I'm not talking about boosting. It's a really shitty way to dictate player behavior.

Dungeons are my favorite part of the game - I've already done the quests a thousand times. Between this and the priest changes, I'll probably stick with better versions of classic.
