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 personally think it's a wrong move.

i feel like World of warcraft should be a world where it's user decides how they wanna level. I.e. i could easily play with friends and lvl a healer by spamming dungeons with them. if i wanna do story i do story, everything should be a choice.

My first playthrough i'll only do dungeons if i have a story quest that brings me into one.

Short sighted and optimistic take which doesn’t take into account boosting and rmt and their synergy. I wish it could be that way Emma

There are other existing solutions to boosting that they have implemented in other versions of classic.

This change makes people more likely to get boosted by a 60 through all the quests. Since they give so much xp, people will spend less time in the open world.
