Comment by etheridianDo they plan on doing anything about Chromie Time kicking you back to your capital at 50? Imagine being a tank and booted out of the dungeon during a boss add phase because you managed to ding. It's seriously messed up.Comment by SilverDragon234Not a good idea.Comment by TheLustful
WOD aucutally had a lot of great questing and zones and tons of stuff to collect and see and do. I think legion in comparison wasnt even of the level of WOD was in terms of stuff on map, as a collector, or sheer amount of rares, and objectives. Look at broken shore zone, its pretty barren in comparison also (to Tanaan jungle)Comment by TheLustfulDo they plan on doing anything about Chromie Time kicking you back to your capital at 50?

That’s why I never considered leveling in WoD content. People will see how empty WoD leveling will be without the treasures and extra expComment by PalewindI loved leveling in WoD. This nerf -- so many years later -- is a testament to how well they designed the questing experience and how seamless and easy-going it was.

You can walk a few steps in any direction and stumble on something worth your while.Comment by PleinairiAbout damn time honestly. I'm surprised it wasn't already.Comment by KorijenkinsThey think people enjoy leveling.Comment by bloverWoD questflow and overall design is still really solid, and for your average Player, that could be more important. Overall, though, I think it's good for no one expansion to be so much better for Leveling, than others, even if it still benefits from much more modern design paradigms, than previous expacs.Comment by IsfendiyarWell, I really hated levelling Draenor anyway. You know, more like geographic issues like big scale of mountain areas, huge canyons and such.

Legion in fact was a better option for story and fun. And now, people who look for power levelling, will gaze their eyes on Legion where everything has been cotton candy for 4 years.Comment by nes76I'm sure the next thing on the chopping block are the Legion invasions...Comment by DragonkhanThat kind of sucks Blizzard. I liked having the option if I wanted to gen up a character real fast I can use wod and level fast. If I want to take my time I can go to other expansions and experience the story. I wouldn't take the time demephisto as gospel. He's a speed leveler. He has like 50+ 120 warriors. I always found I'm like 2-3 hours slower than his routes/technique/muscle memory. So when he said it was 6 hours I knew it'd be like 8-10. Especially incorporating little breaks to step away for whatever reason.Comment by DragonkhanThat kind of sucks Blizzard.

In the last Beta build, completing all six invasion objectives would have easily gained you two levels. Not it won't even get you one.Comment by Thatoneguy335NOOO. Gorgrond leveling has been my jam for years. How DARE they!Comment by RiverwyndI feel like it IS a case of "fun detected." If you are levelling too fast for your taste, don't do these. I thought this game was supposed to be mostly about the end game. If so, why fear fast leveling opportunities? Whatever...life will go on.Comment by AucieleanThis sucks so much. But I ain't as angered as I should be, cuz... let's be honest... who didn't see this coming a mile away. That said 1 hour or a hour and a half isn't that big a difference thus far still faster then retail atleast and probably still faster then most other zones.Comment by XardasOficial
