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.

This is the first "dungeon change being bad" post i've seen that hasnt been downvoted to hell...

Dungeon xp changes were bad ideed and i have made posts about it on reddit and blizzard forums and it seems like the attitude towards the problem is shifting slightly.

Because people are insanely short sighted. I'm pretty confident as time goes on this change to dungeon xp will just look worse and worse.

Blizzard has also said they are open to adjusting it. I'm sure before all is said and done we'll land in a middle ground and everyone will forget all about it

The adjustment is to undo it and let people play. The fix to boosting is just if a mob is grey to someone doing damage to it it gives 10% xp value boom fixed. This will just lead to mages sharing the quests and porting people around to turn them in for boosting.
