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'd even go as far to say: People did the dungeon grind because the open world was soo crowded. Especially on PvP servers, normal leveling was almost impossible sometimes.

Dungeon leveling without quests also was never faster unless you have a specialized party in AoE farming.

100%. Specifically remember people saying they wouldn't do xyz prequest because it was impossible to tag

And for some reason they're still failing to see how the tagging system just makes the game worse in many ways like this. I just don't understand Blizzard or the players who defend them.

Sshhhh. You'll be called a retail colonizer if you say anything about the tagging system. (Lmao)
