Because it’s common knowledge. You can feel free to read numerous people claiming they did in the classic general forum. I also know people who did.
Timbermaw rep!!!
Current end game zone traversal is pretty comparable to burning steppes, silithus, and easier than either plaguelands while lacking EPLs scarlet crusade gank patrols.
Mob density is less than EPL and zone sizes are pretty comparable while flight paths are much better in the current zones.
I had fun grinding part 2 for a whole week, not even enough time to truly find my way around everything.
The problem is not with the grind, it’s the wait. We grinded part 1 in like a month, we than had to wait 10 more for part 2, the grind itself was the wait more than the 7 days of questing.
Pathfinder caused all my friends to quit. If enough quit, then I guess pathfinder percentages could get that high after wow only appeals to rep grinders and no normal person.

My entire old guild quit the game in BFA. Pathfinder and class design were at the forefront for their reasons.

I got halfway to exalted around mid July on both reps but I got bored and stopped grinding. Heritage armor is more appealing to me so that’s where I’m at now with retail. I didn’t see the big fuss about Classic but I tried it yesterday before they shut the stress test off and it was a nice change of pace. Felt like I was playing Morrowind or something lol.
it is what it is, its a hard knock life man
Didn’t help that’s for sure. My friends list started going grey back when crz was implemented, and Blizzard killed realm identities. Pathfinder, and all the item level scaling rubbish drove most of the others away. Pathfinder was not the only culprit.

Honestly if you’re out there doing wqs then most of those people are the ones that are going to have flying. It’s the other 60% of the people that detest wqs that don’t have it and you don’t see.
When it’s boring content absolutely. Why not let us grind rep via actual content? Mythic+? Battlegrounds? They can leave it for wq people too. Hell make it faster that way. It’s dumb that that is the only way.

It took way more than two weeks grinding Netherwing faction and it was 100x more painful.
rose-tinted glasses is a terrible condition.
And they win either way. Players do it they can report Pathfinder is a success. Players don’t do it they can say people don’t care about flight and remove it.
Don’t have it seems like a crazy grind.
I just resubbed 10 days ago to kill a month before another game release and it took me 8 days to finish part 2 from neutral rep. That’s the least grindy pathfinder I’ve ever seen.
I don’t agree with pathfinder in the least but this time it was super easy.
It’s common knowledge because a few random people on the internet said it was so?
Yep. I totally get it now! Whew! How could I have missed that?
No…
A few people on the forums are making claims that may or may not even be true.
Been playing wow for years. Never done a pathfinder, never will.

I like the concept of pathfinder but not the implementation with regard to the grind.
To me, ideally it would be available around the end of the first raid and just require you to do the zones content. No rep grinds and no other time gating beyond just being available after the first raid.
