If it's really that big a chore then try some insta 60 server. I don't get the point of leveling if it's something you hate doing.​

I play on this server for the late game experience. I'd let Chero rape me with a tire iron if it would mean playing on this server. Twice if it meant playing here without leveling.​

2x or 3x seems reasonable. Though I wouldn't mind it being higher than that. I am pretty convinced that if you make it 1x, the server won't last long (again?!).

Or just to be safe make it insta 60,right?
 
Better yet, make it insta 60 full t3 & r14.
Dont have timo playin' them vanillza wowz gear grind. Wanna login and do som uber pwnage to noobz. Ya feelin'?

And ofc make it optional so those who want 2x can take it slow no need to insta 60 full gear if u dont want :)
 
since when 2x-3x xp rate = instant 60? man some guys here have real problems with brain and stupid 1x xp blizzlike expierience balance economy mindset shit.

get real, who cares if you leveled 1x or 3x, your not a better player if you managed to lvl with 1x xp

Sorry. I don't know why my post upset you that much. I really do believe 2x or 3x would be perfect fit. A reasonable compromise for the most part of the community. But I might be wrong, of course.
 
If everything works i don't mind going x1. That way i can finally do escort quests and low lvl instances on a private server the way it's meant to be played.
 
I got bored pretty quickly as I reached level 60 and had Dungeon Set 2. I was not into raiding or battlegrounds so I quit at that point. Leveling/questing and 5 man instances always entertained me the most. If you raise the experience rate too high, then you would outlevel some zones leaving them without completing all quests or even had to skip some entirely. Even more so when you add the experience you additionaly gain from dungeons. That was one big issue I had with Mists.
With x1 experience rates you complete a zone for each level range, add a few dungeon runs and you're good to go.

That is true. But I do hope you realize that 1 - 60 in vanilla is about five times as long compared to 1 - 90 in MoP.
 
1x for all reasons !

- nobody will do lvl dungeons
- will break economies
- changes game experience =nomore blizzlike
- world will feel empty
- ppl only running high lvl dungeons
- lvling progress becomes obsolete

But the major reason is:

Most of the gamers are nostalgic enthustasts and they will INSTANTLY LEAVE with high rates.

peace

Yes, that is one reason I want to play. I played vanilla when it launched and always thought that leveling speed was okay.

Why would that be a bad thing? isn't it all about what the majority "want"?

There is a discrepancy between what the registered want, and what the unregistered want.

I am interested in knowing how 2x exp rates would "break the economy" and how capping respec costs at 10g wouldn't, though.

Not that I'm complaining about it.

I have now clue about the economy thing, but I you raise the experience rate, you would have to skip quests, zones or dungeons at some point. I don't know how tragic it is when doubling the experience rate. What I remember from vanilla is that after completing one zone you usually reached the level to go to the next adjacent zone. That wouldn't be possible anymore. And if you level too fast, the pre 55 instances are abandoned pretty soon.
 
Personally, I prefer x1, voted for that as well. But from a unbiased point of view, x2 would benefit the server certainly. Short and long term. If you look at it unbiased, there is no denying that. I doubt any x1 voters would say "fuck it" and not play here if it would turn out to be x2. No matter what they might say, I believe a big chunk of those would play here nonetheless. Yet at the same time it would attract players that dislike x1.

To me at least it seems very obvious that more people would opt not to play at default x1 rates. For the greater good it would simply be wiser to go x2. It still caters way more towards the x1 believers while still not neglecting the other playerbase.

But unbiased opinions that dont reek of personal preferences seem not to be the norm in this thread.

Again, I myself voted for x1 as this is what I, personally, enjoy the most. That certainly doesnt mean its the best for the server.

Of course this is just my experience, but I already skip quests on purpose in favor of grinding. The one time I've attempted to do 100% quests, I ended up grinding too. There's just not enough experience to go from 1-60 solely through quests.

Of the past 3 level 60s I've leveled on 1x rates servers, I've done 5-mans...3 times? One run through of Scarlet Monastery, Maraudon, and ST. If I wasn't a warrior, I doubt I would've done any of them aside from ST for the class quest. It's a pain finding a group half of the time, and it's quicker for me to just bypass instances. I spent maybe 2-3 hours looking for an SM group so I could grab the sword of omen and another few hours getting to the instance, and clearing out the 3 of them, but I could've spent that time and gained maybe 2-3 levels and been better off from it.

I think that there ARE enough quests to solely reach lvl 60. Did you go to/explore all of the places, where your faction gives you quests?

In what server did you play? Did you look for a group in it's peak hours or in the early morning?

The server I did my warrior on doesn't exactly count, as I was one of the first groups to hit 60. With my hunter, it should've been peak hours since it was a US timezone, but I was still unable to find any groups forming. So I just didn't do it.

And yeah, I've explored everything. Multiple times.
