Gathering professions shouldn't give Character EXP

[Ahira-turalyon]

People are looking to REDUCE the ways to get experience and level? What will I read next?

I also miss the minor stat bonuses they used to give after you hit certain levels.

People complained they were “forced,” to be a skinner on their warlock for the extra 1% crit or whatever it was. Even though their guild was only clearing normal so that extra 10 dps didn’t really matter

[Sshhsshhsshh-proudmoore]

They didn’t matter, but they were nice little bonuses that made the profession feel more impactful to players. What hardcore guilds required of their guild was their business. For the rest of us we got to choose the one we wanted.

[Kazghani-wyrmrest-accord]

Of all the things to complain about, you chose probably THE most innocuous thing in the game, OP.

Y’know what? Ok, let’s do it, IF they put the exp bonuses back on all the heirloom gear I wasted tons of gold on that I’m never getting refunded.

[Astealoth-area-52]

Gathering gives very small xp, you’re saying leveling is too easy and want to fix it with something that gives like 1% of the xp of any other activity. Leveling with gathering xp is actually a challenge mode people have participated in. During MoP there was a lot of chatter about people leveling up RP pandas with no faction by picking flowers. If you want harder leveling, don’t build rested xp. Most people don’t have the time to take hours per level. People can just buy level 60 with a token, what does it matter to you how fast or slow someone levels? Personally I hate leveling, I have 5 chars I’m doing weekly rested XP dungeon spams on right now so I can level with minimal impact on my sanity.

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

but even without heirlooms i can reach lv 60 with just questing and killing monsters no problem at all and pretty darn fast.

That’s the point lol

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

this will not be a popular opinion.

Please unsubscribe from World of WarCraft and take your horrible suggestions with you.

[Yelenya-daggerspine]

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

why? because as it stand now raising your lvl just from questing and battling monsters alone is enough to reach lvl 60 without any problems.

lol…and?
you DO know that merely leveling ISNT the real game here, correct?
It literally gets you next to nothing in and of itself.
Leave leveling alone.
thx

You should gain experience from every profession imo. Gathering always and production for things that aren’t grey (could give skill up) with more expensive items to create giving more xp.

[Spring-the-underbog]

I sort of sympathize with leveling being too quick. But I’d rather keep the xp within professions.

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

you lvl up so fast that it makes the game leveling experience boring and annoying.

so your own personal opinion should be the rule for everyone?

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

but even without heirlooms i can reach lv 60 with just questing and killing monsters no problem at all and pretty darn fast

new heirlooms vs the original looms: there is no contest. the new ones are light blue and barely higher than greens. in fact some greens are better. the originals were dark blue and on level with epic items. and let’s not forget the originals had exp bonus on each piece which was removed for snowflakes’ reasoning.

your whole post reeks of “we are leveling too fast (again) we need to slow down leveling. make it like classic so everyone can enjoy wow again.”

this game was fine the way it was for 9-10 years? or more? till a few snowFLAKES arrived and whined and complained they out leveled zones and quests turned grey before they could complete the zone. the rest of us: once a zone got too easy we moved to a harder zone. that is where the challenge was, not by making scaling all quests the same level (as player), not by making all mobs scale to player’s level and most certainly not by reducing the heirlooms power, removing the exp bonuses and basically upsetting most of the original players.

somewhere along the way, the devs took pity on the whiners and slackers and molded the game to be better for the minority of players versus the majority of players.

please by all that is holy, stop trying to reduce this game further.

[Scarwell-silver-hand]

I don’t see the worry about exp from gathering. Each node gives exp equal to one kill, give or take. Not sure how that is the driver of the problems you cite.

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

Gathering Professions shouldn’t give experience

I disagree

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

you lvl up so fast that it makes the game leveling experience boring and annoying.

I know what you need

@Kaurmine-area-52

[Big Sphere of XP] a ring or neck or trinket that gives 55% xp So people who want to use looms but don’t want to level fast can do so they just don’t equip the Sphere, people who want to level fast can equip the Sphere.

Except you need the [Big Sphere of Reversed Polarity] Reduces XP gained by 55%

Skinning doesn’t give experience

Just checked that out it does give exp but it is a small amount maybe because I’m in a area i already explored. 2100 per herb not bad but 70 to 84 per skin .ahm.

[Kaurmine-area-52]

@Pyromor-shandris

it does give exp

Time to hop on my lowbie and test brb

[Keymah-wyrmrest-accord]

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

but this just my personal thought, i think Blizzard should remove Character experience from gathering professions in the game.

gathering professions like:

• Herbalist
• Miner
• Skinner

Without this, there would be no Doubleagent. Full stop

[Lyssra-farstriders]

Classic doesn’t have that and you might enjoy playing there.

@Melodybell-eldrethalas

because as it stand now raising your lvl just from questing and battling monsters alone is enough to reach lvl 60 without any problems.

So take away someone’s love of leveling a different way than you, because your way is “just fine?”

No… I don’t think so.

You play the game the way you want to play and others will play the way they want to play.

Removing fun just because “you can get it elsewhere” is ridiculous.

[Kaurmine-area-52]

God low level riding is so painfully slow

I didn’t get any experience as a level 20 skinning a level 20 mob

I say Pyromor is using hacks

[Emirasha-area-52]

I have 3 skinners & none received any Exp for skinning
