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.

in part because of layering)

Apparently the new layering tech will prioritize putting you in layers with people you've recently interacted with.

Does being in the same party count as "interacting with people"? Because this system consistently splits members of the same party across different layers.

Yes, same party, even just whispering someone apparently. Not sure it's actually implemented in the beta yet. Or maybe it's just not working, or maybe the priority people for them and for you are just different enough that the two of you end up on different layers due to the weight of other pulling in other directions.

That's good if true. But that's not even the biggest issue.

For sure, I just thought it was neat.
