The end of twink boosting?

I’ve just watched a video on YouTube from Kelani


In regards to twink boosting, on the current ptr if your a twink and you join a dungeon or raid group those in the group with you recieve 95% less xp for having you in the group.

Personally I think this is a great idea although I think it still needs some refining, maybe the possibility for twins to only join grps with other twinks so no griefers join a random dungeon just to upset everyone.

Thought I’d share the news what do you peeps think?

Really… That kinda sux I was hoping all the irritating advertising was gonna stop :confused:

It would, you can’t guarantee to join queue with people for boosting. It will essentially stop twink boosting

The xp isnt good if the booster is 5-6 levels above you,thats how they stopped dungeon boosting in 7.3.5.
I know there are people posting on the forums how it will switch to 120’s now.But its not the case…also the gear start to be really good at the end of expansion,since most of the ie are around ilvl 350…and i think we will be at 450 by the end of bfa.

Doesn’t change a thing for me, I can still boost people through LFG :>

…Just queue at the same time and only join if the ready check pops for both people at the same time. ez.

Do you have a source with figures?

They simply wanted to be noticed by you!
You cruel cruel, Isenpåi…

its good enough in Islands considering you’re afk while getting boosted.
IE boost will replace FH boosting and that’ll be it

I don’t want to be a buzz kill, but my bud prot war boosted my mage alt via freehold while he was 120. My mage got like 300-350k exp for each run.
It was a couple of months ago I think.

So the option is still available, not for a Twink, but for a geared tank. And since they don’t buff normal dungeons in 8.2 it will be even easier.

BLizzard at their best. cute symptoms instead of disease.

Disease is what exactly? Players who have seen certain quests X number of times and who want to level faster?

I personally blame crazy scaling system, which makes you feel weaker each level from 110 to 120.

My bet will be that we will have a mob in mechagon or in Azshara that will give insane amount of xp…and warlock will mvp untill they patch that(timless isle turrtels,argus invasions).Also killimg of rares or something along those lines in 8.2. Zones comes into mind(black prince mobs in mop,stonedrakes from cata).

The problem is from 116-119 if you are questing,but if you have a legion char with 2 legos and tier sets then its easy,not to mention argus trinkets.

And since i bet 8.2. Is the last biggest patch for this expansion id say a prepatch with some invasion portals will be also broken and abused.All based by track records time after time with each expansion.

I don’t think so, they can’t leave a game without a content patch for a year. Next expac most likely will only come next year, cause this is a classic year…

Ofc they will.We might get a small 2-3boss raid,and then brace your self for prepatch.The rest they will cover with “you got classic”,and they will annonce the next expansion at blizzcon so they will use the alpha/beta of that expansion as “content”.One year of no content is seen as a good sign given there track record.

Also the shear fact that the neckless will go up to lvl 70 and then it turns into legendary is all available for 8.2.
And the writing is on the wall that past 8.2 they quit on bfa,since it was badly recived as an expansion.

Random non factor, Nathanos and Sylvanas?

Nooo, I do hope wintergrasp rewamp had some hidden meaning, I want icy lich queen to update Northrend textures. Or just some action up there in the snow.
