Follower Dungeons - Initial Daily Limit

then go with friends for more learning?

I’d never put anyone through that, not even friends, lol, every time I’ve tried tanking before it has gone VERY badly.

Blizzard relies on player reports to find bots, which would be hard to do if they are living inside of dungeons, being able to gain levels AND gold without a chance of being detected.

But wouldn’t a simpler and less onerous solution here be to have diminishing returns on loot and gold rewards and / or cap the daily amount at substantially more than 10?

10 total per day seems strangely very limiting…

It impacts literally nobody else.

except that server resources are finite

The simplest and easiest solution to both implement and understand is to just say “You can only do this dungeon 10 times per day”.

I had zero interest in this until I just realized something: can you target which dungeon?

Because if so, this sort of fixes the Altar of Decay requirement for me…(I hate having to go there)

I would imagine that after ten runs of follower dungeons in one single day on any given spec, you’d be more then prepared to queue for a Normal with other people.

To be entirely fair about this situation, the AI followers are not powerful, at all. You’re already spending eons clearing a single normal dungeon, from a leveling perspective at least. Not to mention you get next to no XP from killing mobs.

But yeah this situation is starting to look like a “FUN DETECTED” one. They nerfed the XP, then put a limit a few days before launch, so now it leaves you to wonder “what’s next?”

@Wulm-aerie-peak

can you target which dungeon?

Yes, you can choose the dungeon.

@Darren-suramar

They’re limiting you to ten runs per day. Why in gods name are you going to possibly need play through a dungeon more then that per day if you’re using this feature as intended?

If it were not per account, i would be fine with it, but nope.

@Darren-suramar

If you want to grind dungeons for EXP, then queing for Normals is going to be faster and more efficient,

Says who? You do not have to wait for AI to queue!

As someone who has learned a lot in this game, don’t think of it that way. Just tell your friends: “Hey. I wanna learn how to do” whatever it is. Then go and give it a shot. You’re not a burden.

They nerfed the XP,

Seriously?

HUGE swing and miss Blizz!

[Warthinator-earthfury]

Yeah I tried it on PTR yesterday with a level 61 on Nelth and got 71 rested XP per elite mob

Follower dungeon XP is severely gimped.

[Kretyn-illidan]

Sorry, I guess it’s more of a grind, and less farm. Just grinding from 60-70. But 10 a day should help. Hell, with 10, you’d probably get from 60-67 ish

For crafting?

Just do it on Mythic once and keep extending the cleared instance lockout every week forever. You’ll never have to do the dungeon again.

Nobody who actually works there have stated this.

But you don’t seem to have a more sane explanation outside of smoke filled room mustache twisting “blizzard hates players” tin hattery.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

@Kretyn-illidan

Just grinding from 60-70.

With severely gimped XP, these aren’t meant to grind out levels.

[Kaoscontroll-area-52]

Did you miss me?

Doubt you’ll even get to level 61. Pretty sure there’s 0 bonus XP for those dungeons. I’ll check PTR again right now though to verify.

Just checked and it’s just like the specific dungeons menu/queue. No bonus XP.

[Deunan-atiesh]

live stress testing is what this sounds like to me. Makes sense.

True, and it’s still better than 10 total per day.
