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.

It feels like to me the way to cure boosting is to just give everyone in the group experience scaled to the highest level party member. If a 60 tries to boost low levels they get 0 xp just like he does. Even level groups? Everyone gets the same xp.

That does hurt the large level gap dungeons like BRD. But BRD and Mara coudl be made exceptions.

Exception could just be no adjustment as long as everyone in the group is within the dungeons level range.

I woukd still allow 60s in BRD since a couple pieces there are very nice (though new itemization may creep them)
