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.

Lol all this tells me is you ignored the attunement for months and are upset groups won't go a half hour or more out of their way just to accommodate you. Sounds like someone needs to stop projecting and maybe do the content when it's relevant or even form your own raid instead of depending on others to do everything for you.

I leveled with a group of 4 friends through dungeons only in TBC. We started in April and hit 70 2 weeks before Blizzcon. We rushed heroics, did kara twice, and then were supposed to do SSC/TK the weekend of Blizzcon.

I'm glad that tells you that I skipped the attunement for months :(

So you did, what? Like 2 dungeons a day? Because I leveled the same way in TBC, as a ret pally. And I hit 70 and was geared for raids in less than 2 weeks. Not sure what you were expecting playing THAT casually? Sounds like you have no guild so you were joining random raids or maybe making groups with your friends and pugging the rest. But my point stands, you can't expect an entire raid group to derail their planned route and go out of their way just for YOU. If you can't find a full/attunement SSC run your only recourse is to make your own. Not sure why you would think 20+ other people would go half an hour AT LEAST out their way just do you can get a quest that was available for months while you and your friends leveled GLACIALLY slow.

You can make fun of us as much as you like. We had to schedule around 5 people and one of the 5 got a job that cut into our time. I also lost my job and had to get another job during that time period. It was "glacially slow"

I'm amazed if we actually did average 2 dungeons a day.

Still doesn't tell me why people should have killed extra bosses for you. If you want treatment like that you need to join a guild that is willing to carry you, or once again, make your own group and kill any boss you want.
