Can’t help players level up their followers. 3000 xp (combined) required to unlock the last leg of the quest chain, and even though you can get upwards of 550xp (I think) on a perfect day, usually you’ll only get 300xp per day. That’s a time-gate you can’t avoid, and having missed it the first 10 days of the patch prior to raid, means you won’t be raiding until more players put the time in.
Attunements were better than this … that’s saying something.
