The 8.1 leveling nerf. Which level bracket is it going to affect?
2
Seems to be all of them, aside from the 110-120, but the bulk of it will be that 60-80 range covered by BC and Wrath, the leveling "dead zone" so to speak.

Nevermind, read the chart wrong.

All of them, Bellular had a decent video on it covering the variations in the % nerfs in the last couple of days.

The 8.1 leveling nerf. Which level bracket is it going to affect?

1-39 will have an increased XP cap
40-120 will have a bell-curve reduction, peaking at 60ish at 40% and downhill from there.

Here is a table of data taken by comparing the 8.1 PTR numbers against a patch prior to 7.35 (when leveling was fun)

Just plugged all the info from 7.0.3, 7.3.5, 8.0.1, and 8.1 PTR into Excel.

Here are the results.

The difference between 7.0.3 and 8.1.0 PTR experience is as follows:
Level % XP Change 8.1-7.0.3
1 0.0%
2 0.0%
3 0.0%
4 0.0%
5 0.0%

106 -25.0%
107 -25.0%
108 -25.0%
109 -25.0%
110 -25.0%

So there is an increased experience required between levels 10-39, but after that from 40-110, there is a straight decrease in overall experience required from the 7.0.3 levels (so leveling will be faster overall than the previous super fast speed minus old heirloom benefits).

The total amount of experience required to level is reduced by 8,649,990 from 7.0.3 levels.
