I thought levelling from 110-120 was going to be faster?

With 8.1 but I see in the patch notes only 1-110 speed increased by 25%. I misunderstood?

110 to 120 might a tinge faster just in the sense there are now invasions like there were in Legion. Otherwise the xp numbers needed were basically not touched for 110-120.

Thanks. Though I thought I did hear it was being reduced 30%.

Nah the reduction 110-120 is single digits %'s…minimal for that bracket

110-120 is already fast, I think it’s fine where its at

I wouldn’t even call it single digit its so insignificant.

The XP reduction was to make it quicker and easier to level to current content and to get past the dreaded level 60-80 and its very old content. This became especially important after Patch 7.3.5 and enemies started scaling with your level, slowing leveling significantly. Once in current content the devs want to slow things down since leveling 110-120 is current content. You can hit 120 by fully completing the three zones. In 8.1 the addition of faction assaults will speed this up even further.

this change was more for the infamous 60-80 crawl and such.

110-120 is not all that bad. Its tedious because of ilevel scaling imo but not too bad.

Lower level leveling tends to suffer from “are we there yet?” syndrome for me and others. you loaded up like 6 quests. Out doing them you went flower picking/rock mining and even did archeology. Hell you even did some pokemon stuff.

Complete the quests. Going back to town going man this has to get me a ding. And…no ding. Feels bad at times.

Why would nerf xp needed for current content 1 patch in to the expansion?
