Recently Aggrend said that the SOD team is focusing on promoting people playing SOD, this is great and all runes being available from lvl 1 is start.
However, it is still classic wow with lots of grinding slow leveling. I would suggest increasing the exp boost to 300% to promote more alts/returning players. I want to return to SOD but classic with a 150% boost is still painfully slow.

Is it though? I hit lvl 9 before even leaving the Valley of Trials, one shotting stuff the whole way…
Getting about a level an hour on my 50+ pally too. Thats WAY better than vanilla.
Might as well just give out rank 14 , 100% mount phase hunter no doubt with 58 boost.

Disagree. You quickly outlevel areas you are in as is. 150% is fine.
IMO, their complete focus should be on the upcoming Naxx, Scarlet Enclave and Karazhan Crypts releases as that is the type of content that will draw players back to SoD

I am already out leveling most content. So no.
As a returning player, I’d be fine with a bigger boost, but I also think it’s fine how it is now.
The 150% it’s at now feels way faster than 150%, but that could be that I was trying to play on fresh where every zone has no mobs and you can’t quest.
40-60 is eye gouging…
sounds good to me!
I feel giving a mount at level 10 is better.
150% experience is okay.
In saying that though, it would be pretty nice in P8 if they introduced a speed buff to the xp/gold buff already in place.
150% experience increased
300% gold gained
25% run speed increase
That would be a nice thing to see at the top of your screen.
Op must be a retail andy used to going 1-70 in a couple hrs
Im a returning player, just started last week.
I levelled warrior 1-60, which is considered one of the hardest classes.
It wasnt difficult nor did it take long.
300% xp is completely not needed.

I don’t think they need a boost, however I did like what they did in retail where once you maxed out a character, the next one got an xp boost. Once that one was maxed, the 3rd toon got an increased boost. So basically 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% up to 25%. I wish they would actually use that on all the servers (except HC).
My brother in Elune, leveling is breakneck speed compared to regular vanilla. You can literally go 1-60 in like 30 hours /played and that’s just casual solo questing/incursions.
If you think this is “grinding slow leveling”, then MMORPGs in general are not for you.
They must remove the Seal/Sanctified system if they’re serious about promoting alts/returning players.
