Forever Beta Feedback Unintended outcomes of the Dungeon XP Nerf

  1. Monster Skip Runs [ More than just end game dungeons ]

  2. Hard Reserving of low level gear [ Not just Cruel Barb ]

  3. Less Tank and Healers leveling [ You see them say it every day on reddit since the nerf ]

  4. Tanks and Healers charging for their services for low level dungeons [ Not just end game ]

  5. Less dungeons begin ran [ Meaning harder to find groups ]

  6. Less social interactions [ Dungeons were the group activity, questing is primarily solo ]

  7. Some dungeons being skipped entirely [ Alliance have no reason to run Shadow Fang Keep since there are no quests and no mob XP ]

There are more issues than just these, I normally just run a dungeon 3-5 times now trying to convince people to do that will be drastically harder.

why would cloth users help me do Scarlett Monetary Armory?

Will people just Skip SM Cath because you have to clear all mobs?

We have never had to ask these questions before and this is why people are so passionate about it, we are supposed to be playing this version Forever.

Just make Boosting a lifetime bannable offense.

Since I get such little xp in a group, why would I not just ask my 60 friend to run a dungeon for the quests and loot and be done in 10 min

This is the new dungeon boost. 60 carries four people for quests or one person pays extra for quests, all quest items and loot. Continues to alienate the low level community and nothing breaks terms of service.

its a no brainer for sure. Boosters will just have an alt with all the quests to share.

Ask yourself what would be Blizzard's response?

Nerf the dungeon quest xp.

Lock out any +10 level character from joining the dungeon when grouped with any character not in that level range.

Any other number of options to further kill this behavior.

After a month or two and the player pop nosedives they will be too checked out to give a fuck.

Revert the XP changes for people that are appropriately leveled for the dungeon and keep the nerfs for any group with one player that has outleveled the dungeon.

This is like a no-brainer.

Probably prevent people from sharing dungeon quests entirely because "picking up Quests yourself was always the main character" or some bullshit.
