we heard the same for the zombie plague in Wrath. any meaningful event is met with vocal criticism from the players who cant be bothered to lose xp per hour.
This solves nothing.
My rogue has been getting pasted over and over again, lol. Granted, I’ve completely how to play one but diving in to that as a fresh 50 in greens was not the best idea 
I’ve leveled 3 toons from 50 to 60 via this event alone. It’s not too bad, but questing through Chromie Time is still the most optimal… Unless you’re stuck with Shadowlands as the only option.
But I do think that the mob tagging is a bit annoying and could be faction based at least… Speaking of, I thought mob tagging was going to be a thing of the past with this expansion, was I incorrect about that?

Hey Orctang.
Well it’s what I’ve been doing and many others.
If you look on the map you’ll see if the boss is up.
This absolutely works, no reason for such a dramatic thread.
If you have issues finding a group during an event, then it is very easy to announce in chat that you are making one. People will join.
If there is a lack of players, then it is very easy to switch to one of the more populated event areas for better luck with groups.

Let me guess you are getting levels super fast!
No, it doesn’t not work after the huge xp nerf!
There is nothing dramatic about this. The only drama there is, is what Blizzard did to the XP gains and not opening unlimited tagging for the event.

Boy it’s fun getting jumped on all over again lol, how I’ve missed it!
Still love you buddy!
Sorry you’re having a bad time dude, I don’t know what to tell you. I’ve had a different experience.
Good luck.
Love you too friend!
Thanks, I was having fun until the huge XP nerf, now Chromie time is faster.

Are you kidding me? This event is insane for leveling.
Just tag the elites.
Make a group/join a group for bonus exp.

It’s mainly prepping so I have everything ready for the “Got nothing else to do” phase at the end of a patch. That, and I have pretty much not much else to do at this point, since I’m almost done getting the last few transmogs, and there’s still a week before launch.
I saw a Bellular video calling it “so fast it feels like cheating”
I think I went from level 10 - 14 in 25 mins of effort as a Boomie. It sucks.
Half the mobs end up evading because people pull them too far. Even with a group you fight for the regular adds. And there’s so many AFK / single tag people, the large mobs take like a minute to die.
I never stuck around for the boss. Unless the boss gives 2-3 levels of EXP, I don’t see it as insanely good. It’s low effort. Not fast.
Contrast to MoP regular questing, I took my priest from 51 - 58 in about an hour of casual questing (while also messing with the talents).
Ive leveled 6 toon pretty fast. My lowest was a 38. The event could be a little more robust, but, it’s ok.
Evokers are growing on me too.
this is dumb, lets just ignore all the features of the game.
also what is layering…
Extremely low effort quest lines and invasions.
This feels extremely exaggerated because if leveling was that fast they wouldn’t have implemented the boost due to a large outcry from players about how long leveling took. Granted to me it’s a part of the game so I don’t care how long it is and I know a lot of people are frankly terrible at leveling, I used to be the same way. Now I just sit down and do it. In Wrath it took me two weeks to hit 80 from 70 because I just really hated leveling. Then since Cataclysm it’s been a “I will sit down and hammer this out now” thing and am usually level capped in the first day or two of an expansion but it also now is only like an 8 hour at worst process if you’re having to learn.
Think when Classic released I was 60 on what, day 4 or 5 but that was also extremely unhealthy gameplay. Think I held off on sleeping until I was 40 which was about 45ish hours into the whole thing. Did first week MC though so I’m happy about that much.
Not at all.
To some people even an hour leveling is too long.
Remember, the boost was implemented in 2014.
Additionally, DF reduced the exp required for 1 - 60.
The anniversary event is giving us 18% EXP
There is a temporary buff granting everyone an additional 50% EXP to prep alts for DF.
Oh I see, you’re talking about questing in MoP NOW. That makes sense, I was thinking you meant back when the game was still 1-90 and was like “Uhh, I remember a lot of people griping it somehow took months, though realistically a week if you just did it.” Especially since the level range you gave would have been in the worst of Vanilla questing.
I ended up getting one character to 60 with full 252 gear and got the BoA trinket. I can’t complain. Didn’t play much
it was okay i’d say
Huh since when are Paladins necromancers.
