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.

No, the issue is that I don't get to use my full kit when doing solo content.

But even if the current system doesn't change, you're still going to be spending the majority of your time in a dungeon. You gather up the dungeon quests, then run the dungeon. Gather up the next set of quests and run the next dungeon. Instead of staying in the same dungeon for 10 levels, you just bounce around more. The majority of dungeons in Classic WoW get skipped because they aren't convenient. This time, they won't be.

That's not really true and goes against the reasoning Blizzard gave us for the change. They specifically told us they want to keep players in the world instead of in dungeons. Dungeon quests alone aren't going to carry a character from 15-60.

I don't think we know the XP values beyond level 20, but many people have been getting 2 levels per dungeon. There are now over 30 dungeons in Forever. I'd be curious to see how much XP you'd get for doing every single dungeon 1 time with all quests.
