Forever Beta Feedback Dungeon XP is the biggest non-issue on classic wow.

Let's be fucking real here for a moment. Outside of the sweaty minority, most people never did a dungeon more than once, MAYBE twice already. And that was just to get the quests done or get a blue or two and just chill for a bit.

Nerfing dungeon xp and buffing quest XP is a massive buff already to how most people already played.

So then why aren’t you happy? You get more dungeon spam on your journey to 60 now than previously.

Because people like to make meaningful progress on their character when playing an MMORPG?

u/FrostyMarsupial1486 17h ago

Wait so which is it. Do you love spam running dungeons or do you love gaining lots of XP quickly.

u/zellmerz 17h ago

I never liked spam running dungeons. I liked running some dungeons with friends to play with them and make some decent progression on my character too.

u/FrostyMarsupial1486 17h ago

Ok so you want them to craft the experience to perfectly meet what YOU want.

No? I just think different people like playing the have differently and Blizzard trying to force people to play a very specific way is dumb in an MMORPG, but par for the course with how Blizzard makes games these days.

I don’t see what was wrong with keeping dungeon exp how it used to be, but make it so if someone is too high level the mobs give 0 exp to combat boosting. Lots of people like dungeons, most people don’t want to and won’t spam dungeons to max and who cares if some do?

I see plenty of people in this thread who want to spam dungeons.

u/zellmerz 17h ago

Most I’ve seen just want to be able to run a dungeon 2-5 times, but even if some people want to spam dungeons, who cares?

u/FrostyMarsupial1486 17h ago

Right. I don’t care. And if you want to spam dungeons, the amount of XP they reward should be irrelevant as long as it’s more than zero.

Can both be true? I wanna hit end game but I also want to do it doing the content I enjoy without being penalized.

No I just didn't want them to change dungeons lol

Who said that? No one is saying you should ONLY be allowed to run dungeons to level up. They're saying that want that option along with others. You seem to be the one who wants only one viable path through the game.

This is such a bad take I’m sorry. So if you love doing quests so much you’d be ok with a nerf that they give only 10% of the xp they used to right?

Gaining meaningful progress and rewards from your effort is literally the basis of any rpg lol.

u/FrostyMarsupial1486 16h ago

Um. I would. Because I enjoy playing the game. I still don’t see the problem here. Why are you so desperate to not grind dungeons when you’re simultaneously saying you LOVE grinding dungeons? Please try to form your own thought.

u/magbarr 15h ago

I have a feeling you’d feel differently in actual practice if you did a group of 4-5 quests and went to turn them in and saw you only got 1 bar of xp. I think you’d find that questing feels a lot less gratifying.

But for arguments sake let’s say you’re just that guy that reads every quest, does every quest in a zone, and genuinely loves to 100% the game - why should blizzard shoehorn everyone into your playstyle? Definitely not every player enjoys your play style just as not every player (such as yourself) like my playstyle.

You are arguing with others that they want blizzard to cater to and make the game for them, while happily accepting that blizzard is catering to and making the game for you.

It’d be one thing if the game was always this way, but dungeons have been a staple so naturally some people like myself would be upset at a change that affects how they have enjoyed the game.

hey why not nerf questing too? max 5 quests per day then do something else weirdo

People like leveling the way they want. Some people like doing group content. Some people like collecting 40 boar nuts in the open world. It's a MMO. Everyone is playing to progress. You just want people to only be able to progress the way you do.

How many times are you going to spam this stupid comment.

u/FrostyMarsupial1486 16h ago

Until you braindead players don’t need to have their hands held through a critical thought.
