You’re from Moon Guard. No experience you have is ever relevant to the larger community. It doesn’t matter who you know or what they think. You’re a small sub-set (Your friends) of a small sub-set (Moon Guard) of a small sub-set (Roleplayers) of the population.
Most players see leveling as a chore that is necessary to get to the fun part of the game.
The actual amount of time is irrelevant. Look up the word “hyperbole”.
No, they need to fix dungeon leveling.
So basically, you admit to lacing your posts with hyperbole?
And you tell me that my words are irrelevant?
Really?
And when I say “I’ve heard people saying”, I’m talking about on oboards. I don’t participate in Moon Guard communities much, outside of the occasional comment I make in General when I’m out leveling or doing world quests or what-not.
Trust me, I know to avoid Moon Guard’s community as much as possible. Especially SWC/Goldshire.
I can’t say that I disagree, dungeons could use a tweak. I don’t want the “Get 5 levels out of one dungeon” thing, but yet I think they are a bit underwhelming, esp how long it takes to get a dungeon, and how harsh some of them (say, TBC’s) can be.
Still believe buffing the xp you can get while having heirlooms equipped up from 50% to 100% would of been better. That way both sides would get pretty much what they want. Want to level more like it was pre 7.3.5, then just equip the heirlooms. If you like the way leveling speed is currently then just use regular quest gear to level.
Well, maybe Blizz saw that it was too slow even for newbies and decided to give everybody a buff? Buffing just heirlooms makes it still too slow for newbies.
I think +40% from Heirlooms and -40% required for level from 60-80 is very awesome.
Every person in the world uses hyperbole. It’s not meant to be taken literally.
Taking it literally and then arguing it’s wrong when you incorrectly took it literally is not my mistake. It’s yours.
Or, you know, you could not use hyperbole and stop exaggerating?
When you mass exaggerate, it makes it really hard to take anything you say seriously whatsoever.
You say “leveling is too slow!” and then go on about how it takes you five minutes to kill something and how it takes 11 years to get out of Duskwood, and I’m just rolling my eyes. I know it’s Hyperbole, but when you use Hyperbole nonstop like that, it makes you sound like a kid that’s bawling at the top of his lungs over some first world problem.
Not saying you are a little kid crying like that, but that’s what Hyperbole makes you sound like.
TIL Two related clauses, both in reference to a single point, is “non-stop”
You lost the argument so you’re trying to attack the syntax of the post. It’s pathetic.
My boyfriend stood behind me as I was playing the other day and watched my 97 disc priest take 10 minutes to kill a quest mob at the end of a quest chain, the kind that you are not permitted to group for.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. Devs release this stuff entirely untested. Or maybe they test it on max level characters.
The “people” you claim said that pre-7.3.5 leveling was “boring because it was all one or two shot” hadn’t leveled a character in many years. They read that in the forum. In fact, though mobs were too easy to kill during the first part of Legion, they were NEVER all 1 or 2 shot for at level characters, even in heirlooms.
And in any case, those people who thought leveling ought to be made harder never intended to level a character, and still haven’t. They just thought other people deserved to be put through the wringer.
Basically, yes, it is “non-stop” and the hyperbole used was way over the top exaggeration.
And I didn’t “lose” an argument, because it wasn’t really an argument to start with.
The point is… you’re complaining about it’s too slow and you try to use hyperbole to demonstrate why, which is kind of ridiculous. Maybe, instead of hyperbole, you should try and be a bit more constructive, and/or try to use realistic numbers to analyze what it took before, and what it would take now and maybe you’d discover that it’s really not that bad.
Here’s some hard data:
After 7.3.5, I leveled my Highmountain Tauren through Mt. Hyjal. it took me roughly 3 hours to do this, and I gained 5-6 levels.
Needing 25-30% less, let’s just assume 25% less, in the same 3 hours to clear Mt. Hyjal, I would have instead gained about 7-8 levelups in the same amount of time.
TIL “My anecdote with zero supporting evidence” = “hard data”.
I have personally 1-shot mobs in Northrend at Level 78 in Storm Peaks with Judgment, WITHOUT heirlooms during 7.2.
In Legion content, I have 3-shot mobs before (albeit with crits).
And you’re talking about a Disc Priest, IE, a Healer, well obviously fights are going to be slower as a healing spec. Try Shadow, I bet you’d kill it a lot faster.
That was just off the top of my head, as an example as the kind of data I meant.
LOL. Shadow? You have got to be kidding. You clearly haven’t been paying attention for the entire expansion.
Disc levels faster than shadow. but how would you know that, since you’re claiming to have routinely 1 shot mobs in storm peaks, a zone I put a character through for loremaster only a month ago. So.
Sure I believe you.
1). I said during 7.2 (you know ,the whole “it was too easy back then” thing?)
2). I have a Shadow Priest, and she’s fine. I’ve not had any problems killing stuff with her whatsoever.
LOL right.
I had my shadow priest (Vieria @ Moon Guard) doing World Quests 3-4 days ago. She was doing fine (though she struggled a little due to outdated gear at first).
And yes, I one-shot mobs during 7.2 in Storm Peaks without Heirlooms with Judgment crits with my Draenei Paladin (Maeka @ Moon Guard). Dunno what else to say if you don’t believe it. shrugs
EDIT: Spelled Vieria’s name wrong. Two i’s, derp.
So was the “five minutes to kill a spider”, but you cried about for multiple replies despite calling your own admittedly made-up numbers hard data.
You’re a hypocrite.
I clearly said that my example was not hard data, but I was looking for something “like that” (meaning that my example was not in fact hard data). Apparently, giving an example as to the type of data I mean makes me a “hypocrite”.
But do keep with the personal attacks and such, whatever.
