Blizzard shooting themselves in the foot with this one. Prepare for more sub losses.

Thats happening more because of problem like the one in the thread and the overall dissatisfaction of BfA and the way it has been handled, not over the pet alone.

It’s not about what the players want any more but about getting the players to play for a long time.
They’re failing at that though.

Wonder how many meetings they had to have to decide that Smoochums was priority over all the other issues…lol

Blizzard: We want you to play our island content.
Also Blizzard: We see you found a way to make normal islands fun, and we don’t want that.
Of all the people at 110, how many are really selling runs? How many just want to be able to efficiently farm a little bit while solo? How many almost exclusively pvp or run actual 110 content? And even if people are selling runs or carrying their friends, who cares? It isn’t cutting the leveling time by 90% or anything. It is maybe cutting the leveling time in half, and I’d wager the vast majority of people getting power leveled have already done your garbage quest lines more than once.

So instead of nerfing xp gains from Island expections where this is happening, the devs would rather hit everyone that benefits even remotely from locking xp at 115-110. That’s stupid. Why are the devs so insistent on holding on to this for expeditions when it makes zero sense to have xp gain there in the FIRST place. Yet another pointless band aid fix to an issue just like currency was for azerite armor, because the devs wanted so badly to hold on to the current azerite armor system before finally admitting they’re going to change it later on. Sorry you have to be the messenger for idiotic decisions like this, Ythisens.

My issue with this is. I was planning on disabling XP gains on my Nightborne Monk once she hit 110 so she could get her class mount at level 110. I wasn’t planning on abusing the system I just wanted to that particular content at the level it was meant to be done on.

I’m not going to complain. It’s your game and you can do what you want.
I’m just going to tell you what an epic failure of a decision this is.
I’m a 119 Community Owner who has seen a Pvp oriented community grow to over 200 players in as little as two months.
We did Timewalking raids like Black Temple and Ulduar and completed them.
We did Pvp premades pretty much all day long.
We did World Events.
And this is just Wrath/Cata all over again. History repeating itself, all the wrong decisions being made.
119 is the only reason I was even subbed to the game. The community was amazing and still is, but this will undoubtedly wreck it.
It was super fun while it lasted.

I’m happy to see that blizzard is working SOOO HARD for the community and is making AMAZING changes to the things that are really struggling in the game currently. A small group is using their subscription cost and playtime in the game to play with people they know in order to get through the TEDIOUS LEVELING PROCESS faster. Probably because leveling a 3rd/4th/5th alt is just unbearable to do when all the quests are completely Linear now and you’ve seen the content several times. Maybe put your resources into failed game design that is currently upsetting players and why your sub count is ticking down more and more every day. Maybe put your time and attention into the NOT FUN AT ALL Azerite system. Or Maybe put it into class balance more. Or maybe IDK instead of just ignoring the community that use to love this game and is slowly starting to despise it more and more, address the true issues on why people are quitting. You are acting like a bully on a playground to the subscribers that have paid hundreds/thousands of dollars to your company through the years. Blizzard/Activision has literally taken a position of " Play our game the way we want, or don’t play it at all". Blizzard is really starting to disgust me this past year. Maybe realize your game is doing the worst ever right now on backlash and fix things that will make it better, not just upset players more.

But, players would play a longer time if they were allowed to stop leveling to experience previous content at-level, right? So how is that the reason?
I honestly don’t get this. It makes no sense to me, anyway, that a 110 would power level someone to 120. I’m clearly missing a key component of their reasoning here.
I know that I wanted to stop at 110 so I could do pathfinder and spend time luxuriating for a bit in Legion content because I missed the expansion. I wanted to do the fishing and get the pole and get flight and do all the dungeons and quest and get the rep for allied races…all of it. It would seriously have increased my time spent ingame. So I don’t understand what the point of this is.

Blizzard,
are you seriously trying to compete for the worst company of the year in America for 2018? You have a tough competition against EA and Bethesda, but I think you have good chance!

Are you kidding me? Twinking through expeditions with 2 other twink friends to see how fast we could go has been the last thing I’ve enjoyed and liked about this game. We didn’t boost, we didn’t destroy anything, we had hours and hours of fun.
Raiding isn’t fun without tier which was taken away, m+ are boring, pvp is so unbalanced it isn’t funny (getting one shot by overpowered shamans and rogues is a much bigger issue than twinking). I have 3 twinks I’ve just had a blast on and hearing this is beyond disappointing.
There are so many better ways to handle twinks too. Make it so if you’re above 110 with xp-off you can’t queue for bgs since that really is a problem? Nerf us a bit? Taking it away tho is just bs.
