Don’t understand how this is even a topic. How is the levelling experience “so rough” when many people were 90 the day after launch and speedrunners were doing it in 3 hours. Chances of OP being someone who ran these brain rot monkey runs and burned out?

The world belongs to the clever and that’s exactly why some players are miles ahead before the rest even get started.
Is it fair? Probably not but it is what it is
its not clever to do what they are doing its completely playing against what the game should be.
And what do you mean is it fair? ofc it should be a fair we are paying for a product to play a game it is also not it is what it is this can be fixed thats what the forums are for and why classic is a thing to begin with because people wanted stuff changing back to how it was.
If we now see spending hours of preperation in pre patch and spamming repetitive content smart then the community is at a loss at this point its not hard to do the runs you can have 80IQ and play world of warcraft.
Nobody is playing MOP classic to level. It’s taking 4+ hours per level questing and it is trash. Personally I was going into this planning on playing 3 different characters but the chances of getting them 90 and pre-raid bis before raids is looking worse and worse each day.

The best part about it the classic players who wanted LFR removing because you can just queue up and dont need to see the open world and do other things are fine with making a group of 5 and not talking to each other for 8 hours straight to do levels 2x faster than questing.

Welcome to 2025 where people calling max lvl 1 day after expansion launch without rested exp “slow leveling”. 
It’s indeed a completely ridiculous take.

Not sure if you saw but they have made it so you can farm pvp gear this week and are starting the new pvp season next week there is 100% a reason for people to be tilted about this as you can fall behind and there is not enough time to lvl multiple characters and gear them up.

There is even a catchup mechanic. It doesnt matter if u didnt play arena for 2 months. U will be caught up on day 1 after hitting max level. Also, it was never intended that you can and should have multiple chars from the start. Its called twinking and not multiple maining

you are not listening at all are you i could come back at the end of mop and buy a lvl 90 boost the whole point of it is to be able to play at a fair playing field when the game releases these players are doing nothing else different than me time wise but they are spending that time not playing the actual game to get an unfair advantage.
If any other game is launched i dont wait 2 months to play the game its just released and by putting time into it playing the correct way how its supposed to be played should be rewarded as such.
This is how I can tell you are either a troll or an idiot. The top 1% made 5 man groups with full heroic Dragon Soul gear are just that, the top 1%. The majority of people are solo for their own reasons.
He sounds like “It’s fine that the cost of lifing is $500.000 per week. There are people that survive that, so its fine”.
They should buff the XP in instances by a lot.
Instance:
17,000 XP per Mob
90,000 XP per boss
Open World:
20,000 XP per Mob
170,000 XP per Quest
Monkeyruns:
200,000 XP per 90 sec run + que time + loading screen
On 89 - 90 you will get about 0,7% per run, which will result in 142 Runs which will take approx 6 hours to be done (including looking for new people, loading screen, joinbug)
That’s the “fast way” people do abuse as it does no preparing.
the mogu spam runs are actually rewarding more xp its around 10million xp per hour with a good group so around 3 hours for 89-90.
How am I wrong here?

It is about 10kk/hour but it will still take like 6 hours.
because there is different comps you can run and some of the comps wipe the mobs out a lot faster.
Is that monkey run also as the average xp per mob seems really low for that instance they all award around 10k each in mogu.
But i see also there it says 9.7 million xp per hour it is currently 27.5 million xp for 89-90
Yea sure if everyone has engineering boosts we can save up even more seconds per run, but the avg. player will find his “fast leveling” abuse in the LFG-chat and it will take him about 6 hours from 89-90.
Ye but im not talking about LFG im talking about the people who have a team to do it with thats where the unfair advantage comes from i understand there is downtime but these players dont get it.
It’s insane. I just hope none of this actually gets through to Blizzard. It’s a work week, it hasn’t even been 2 days since launch and you’ve got people upset as they already hit 90 but want to do it again so therefore everything should be nerfed, which would ruin a lot of other player’s experience.
Like please, get a job and let the rest of us smell the flowers at least a little bit before you convince Blizz to make this a sweat-fest.

Its strange how you say get a job to someone not wanting to play 14-20 hours to gain 5 levels when most of mops content is in a few story quests and end game for you to then put a work week meaning you have a 9-5 job some people are self employed or have jobs with better hours allowing them to play during the week some even work weekends.
But just to make it easier for you to understand if you cant play during the week and expect to only play weekends leveling from 85-90 will take up all of your weekend no time for anything else during that time if you choose to quest.
You then will not be able to farm gear before the seasons starts on wednesday so you will be farming your honor gear while people are playing arena.
