I hate the sleeping bags

I think it’s a neat concept, and I think it’s cool that one person can put it down for their entire group, but holy cow these things are annoying and not worth it.

You finally get your group made, and get everybody to the dungeon aaaaand somebody put down a sleeping bag so guess we’ll just spend the next 3 minutes doing absolutely nothing after finally being ready to start the dungeon

Same! I like the rested XP items but the actual sleeping bag… Meh.

I think the point of it wasn’t to be used in that way

I think it was intended to be used before you log off for the day and you’ll get rested exp wherever you are so you don’t have to run into an inn

So you literally start where you left off instead of wasting time running

Yesssss, my god these are so annoying.

I’ve had it as bad as players wanting to drop them before each boss in BFD so they get a tick of rested to boost the xp of the boss kill (?)

I think XP boosts are antithetical to Vanilla in their entirety, so my solution has been to simply not do the quest chain and not use the sleeping bags, but there’s no way to actually avoid this retail minded fluff from impacting your gameplay. Also still pretty annoyed you can’t turn off the discoverer’s delight from 1-25.

If you wanna spoon your homies do it on your own time.

it’s for if you need to go to the bathroom or something, when AFKing is unavoidable so you might as well do it. not for holding up an entire group at the beginning of a dungeon lol.

I don’t want to use the carebear bags at all, ty.

I mean… mine’s on CD, let’s hookup?

It’s a pretty easy fix. Make the buff stack at 20 second intervals so people don’t fall asleep waiting for it. It’s only a 3% buff and mostly a fun cosmetic thing. No reason to make it a drag every time someone drops one in a dungeon group.

People should be happy to spoon!

You realize that every 10 dungeons you do thats 30 minutes of downtime right? 3 minutes is a freaking ton, and it’s not after 2 hours of gameplay it’s at the start the point when everybody is ready to play the game and doesn’t need a break

I personally think their hilarious.

I always shift into bear form to make it more realistic…

Hey, will you shave my back bro?

The absolute horror. :scream:

Once again folks … a thread to complain about literally anything.

If you aren’t squeezing as many snuggle jokes as possible during those 3 minutes… then are you even using the sleeping bag?

So like, The sleeping bag is supposed to be a fun thing that gives a minor buff and makes people giggle a bit. It isn’t to crazy to ask the buff stacking time to be reduced so people aren’t dreading every time one gets dropped in a group.

It’s in the spirit of the item to begin with. I don’t think the guy’s being to unreasonable with this one.

Oh no, 3 mins of waiting so you get a boost to exp. What a struggle!

I would prefer it if it didn’t give a 3% increase in XP, but instead, if you log out while sleeping in it you collected rested XP at double the rate.

yeah when I first heard of sleeping bags I thought it would be a way to log out and gain rested exp anywhere in the world. that’d make a lot more sense.

3 minutes is not a long time at all.

Makes more sense then what we got TBH. But would miss the spooning jokes.
