Unintended outcomes of the Dungeon XP Nerf

[u/Deathtonic]

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.

As a tank player, I can confirm I’ll do hard reserving on items. Sorry for the inconvinience.

[u/CanadianHockeySyrup → u/Independent-Dark4559]

I just won’t take anyone that can roll on any DPS loot I need for my solo leveling journey.

[u/Pepper_Jack_Cheese → u/CanadianHockeySyrup]

Same. Sorry rogues/hunters/shamans but I ain’t takin ya unless I’m literally only there for quests (bfd for example)

[u/smitty8843 → u/CanadianHockeySyrup]

so the same as classic?

[u/So_Full_Of_Fail → u/Independent-Dark4559]

I need to find a tank to pair my priest with to level and HR the 1 and done dungeon gear with.

[u/Independent-Dark4559 → u/So_Full_Of_Fail]

You have it easy. Grab a paladin or warrior tank and get 3 leather dps

[u/Winterough → u/Independent-Dark4559]

1g/run RFC 2g/run RoL 3G/run WC etc for my tanking services.

[u/just67browsing → u/Winterough]

Take enchanting as a profession and just claim all floor loot and unwanted blues. gg

[u/Independent-Dark4559 → u/Winterough]

Wait wait wait let my copy this for later

[u/Vivid_Succotash_6298 → u/Winterough]

Not bad rates tbh

[u/Winterough → u/Vivid_Succotash_6298]

Going to have to do “Flex rates” as per demand.

[u/topres-dk → u/Vivid_Succotash_6298]

Nope pretty good.

[u/throwaway387190 → u/Winterough]

Damn, that is a great idea for WC. Not much loot for my paladin anyways, so i can get some quests done and get usable gold

Plus I kinda hate WC, so why not get paid for my pain. If no one takes me up on it, who cares?

[u/Winterough → u/throwaway387190]

My character name is going to be Tanking Services

[u/javz → u/Winterough]

Race you to it!

[u/LandBeforeTimeOnVHS → u/Independent-Dark4559]

I can confirm other mail/plate wearers will not be in my groups.

[u/Audiobro → u/Independent-Dark4559]

Tanks were already doing this in anni and hardcore

[u/Independent-Dark4559 → u/Audiobro]

Even low level dungeons?

[u/FatalChaos_ → u/Independent-Dark4559]

Can't really blame you for that, if you only get to do a dungeon one time without massively lowering your xp/hour then I don't see why you'd bring in someone that can roll on stuff you need, especially if you're a role that's super desired like a tank

[u/stizz22 → u/FatalChaos_]

I promise people are gonna fill groups like that regardless of how many times they plan on running the dungeon

[u/Independent-Dark4559 → u/FatalChaos_]

It’s not something I’m proud of, but hey, I don’t make the rules.

[u/Gallium_Bridge → u/Independent-Dark4559]

I'm not poopooing you for reserving, but don't pretend like your hands are bound. You could not do it if you wanted; people using the actions of others as a reason for them adopting the same behavior is such a cancer, even if this is null-impact example of it - I just fucking despise the sophistry behind it.

[u/pandahands69 → u/Gallium_Bridge]

I mean it has little to do with what other players are doing and entirely about the design decisions that encourage a behavior.

[u/Independent-Dark4559 → u/Gallium_Bridge]

You are right. Definitely. But I need to compensate somehow, otherwise why even bother if the xp is low? I genuinely wouldn’t do it if xp is good.

[u/Dantini → u/Independent-Dark4559]

Straight to my ignore list
