Leveling too easy

As I’m leveling I feel a little too powerful. I’m level 5 human lock and I’m fighting level 4 defias and they hit for 4 damage. I use curse of weakness and that reduces their damage by 4 so they sometimes hit me for 1 damage or they miss. Maybe scale this a little better so it’s still a challenge and the world feels dangerous. Compared to classic, I’m a beast lol

And quadruple the exp needed per level!

We also want naked corpse runs and exp loss upon death!

oh jeez. yeah well. i guess im glad i didnt give my era gold away lol

Yeah - I was watching people take on 2-3 mobs at a time and not even drop below 50%. Send this back to the kitchen to cook more. No chance this is ready by Nov.

Yeah i just put up curse of weakness on 5 mobs only one level below me and i finished the fight full health and full mana haha

at level 5 !? dude handlign 2 mobs at once is a HUGE milestone, its a huge signal that the first stage of levleing is over.

I think for most classes thats coming closer to 20 than 10 i could be wrong but its defintiely not 5 for ANYONE

in era right now if you roll a lock and get lvl 4 and go into the defias woods in elwyn, pull 2 mobs you are running or dead.

yeah i don’t know if it’s a scaling thing for the mobs or just nerfing warlock curse of weakness lol

yeah this is everything i feared. Marketing to classic deisigning for retailers.

they are trying to make one game to rule them all. its gonna fail

you cant end up with something that off without basically intending to push it quite a bit IMO.

The person I saw was lvl 10 or so. Even still, 2 mobs at time should be tricky.

Try leveling a priest to level 10 without a wand, it will feel just like classic lol. I did this tonight on the beta on my troll priest. I could barely survive if I ever pulled two mobs at once! Even after I got my wand and rocking 4 spell power…I don’t notice mobs dying any faster than wanding in classic so far.

Guess it depends on the class and if specific ones got some new scaling/ability that makes them OP from start stats/gear aside?

Warlock leveling was always easy in starting zones once you got your imp and then again at level 8 with fear. Curious if imps were buffed in forever from start. And dots being able to crit will be crazy.

Im running around obliterating things as an undead paladin. It definitely feels too easy to me as well.

I agree with you. However, now I’m level 12 undead warlock and once got to Brill from level 6 on it did get harder. 2 mobs were a challenge. Where level 1-5 I could fight 2 mobs with minimal issues. Fighting one mob my level without fearing them takes 1/4 my health away. So just the very early starter levels they made easier from what I can tell to help you get going. Also, remember locks one of the easiest to level was harder on my priest early on but still easier than classic, but that needed fixed for priests!

I also think the leveling is too easy. I just leveled a Warrior in BC Anniversary to 25, and I’m doing the same in WoW Forever. The mobs are not hitting nearly as hard as they should be. Classic is supposed to be punishing.

i have to agree, it feels too fast/ easy. this is the starting stuff too tho… here’s hoping it’s just intentionally easy for the new people starting the game and the difficulty and time will get more after lvl20

Absolutely disagree. It’s not “too easy”. It’s perfectly fine as is, because it will get harder. You cannot just take Level 1-5 and make a general conclusion from just that. D:

It looks like they tweaked the classes, and now they’ve become way too strong for Classic..
