This really should’ve been the way it always worked. There’s no difference between ruining people’s fun in PvP not letting them play (because they’re always dead) and ruining peoples’ fun in PvE not letting them play (because you’re one-shot everything and 100y ahead of everyone else).
You group with someone XP-off, you are considered XP-off and go into that queue.
Common objections:
“Timewalking doesn’t matter”
So this change is fine, thank you for agreeing. Also, why are you even doing content that doesn’t matter?
“Make your own group”
No U. The point of LFD is to make playing the game easier. If you want to not play the game, the burden should be on you to make that happen, not on me to make playing the game happen.
Man with how often yall complain about these uber level 11s 1 shotting entire dungeons, I swear I woulda seen at least one by now while leveling characters
Some people let them do that as they’re either a friend, a guildy, or paying them gold for the RBG wins to maybe unlock a skin from Legion… but if they’re in there alone randomly then yeah that would be annoying, they’d probably end up hiding the entire time to mooch the victories I’d imagine
Back on topic though yeah if people turn off XP make it like what happens with Warmode and just put them in a separate queue or phase so they don’t interfere with people trying to level. A buddy of mine used to sue Warmdoe a ton but when we try to meet up in town he was in a separate phase than i was so I couldn’t see him till he turned it off… make the frozen XP folk end up like that
Because Blizzard bribes me every week it’s up with the delusion of getting a nice Trinket from doing content that’s slightly harder than LFR because people are more likely to get filtered by 20-year-old dungeon mechanics than the latest iteration of dodge the swirlies.
they did this in wrath througb i think it was wod. it ended badly with several hour long queues to do a SINGLE bg. fastest i ever heard of was 45min queue per bg.
if i remember the 19 was really popping. 29 and 39. followed by 59,and then 79. 49 and 69 were pretty dead cause eots sucked and 49 was really unbalanced. hunters basically one shotting people in 49s with warlocks dominating 69s.
As I recall that all started when PVPers whined enough about wanting to level through PVP (a minigame in a PVE game) that they got their wish. The ability to turn off experience was added at the same time and those who did had their own queues (for battlegrounds).
I’ve seen two. One made sure he had aggro on everything and kept the pace where everyone could keep up. The other paid attention to the Mage who kept butt pulling stuff and picked everything up.
But… considering this is just another trolling spam thread, I’m not taking it even remotely seriously.
Dear Blizzard,
People are having fun playing in a fashion that is different than mine, stop them. They should be playing the way I want.
Lets go one step further:
Make my parses all 100, thats the new base line. If you do more damage/healing than me, youre obviously not playing the same way I am, make them stop it.
