Why remove bonus XP Cata?

Hello,

I logged in this morning and noticed that the XP bonus had been removed from Cataclysm. I came back specifically for that feature since I’m not a big fan of drawn-out leveling. I was surprised to see that the bonus had been removed WITHOUT any communication from Blizzard.

I feel caught off guard and very disappointed—why remove it without any prior notice? I wasn’t able to finish leveling my character to get back into the game.

Yeah why remove it?

That was barbaric… :smiling_face_with_tear:

Most likely the had it scheduled. Like:

  • release Molten front
  • give players something to do like alts under JJ buff, when average player had Molten Front completed.
  • remove JJ to prepare players for heroic+ protocol inferno farming.

Agree 100%, they should atleast have given us a notice…

Another reason not to play already dead game. I guess they’re doing everything to kill “classic” realms.

Anyone tried to reach GM, cba to do it myself. I hope they’re clueless and this is bug. Makes no sense to remove it this fast when it’s anniversary (not even technically started or over yet because it’s on 23rd nov).

Please Blizzard, give us a reason, why did you remove the exp bonus? The bonus was very useful to play in a more relaxed way.

Makes no sense while Cata is dying

I was hyped to level out my alt for weekend but now I’m not even going to log to Cata at all. Good job Blizz! Knowing that Cata is rushed and last phase is coming soon you deny players to reach max level.

Exactly what I’ve been thinking. It’s almost as if they want it to die…

This makes no sense. Retail has XP buff going on until January and Cata was cut off in less that three weeks of buff?

Yeah, exactly. I tried to find out in which recently published article from Blizz they comment that JJ was/will be removed with new patch…nothing.

Yes. Once again blizzard shows us, just about how much they love communicating with the community.

Absolute disgrace from their part.
