EDIT: I made a new post about Earthen Racials: Earthen Racials Need a Rework

But thank you Blizzard for fixing (almost) everything on my list!

There are a few major exploits available for Midnight leveling. I will list all the ones I know about. Edit: Some fixed happened and I moved those exploits. Everything listed still works.

  1. Housing Endeavor scales the active zone, it is very very broken. Quest XP and rewards scale, mob XP scales and you can use an unscaled character to kill mobs for you. Right now it is less than one hour 80-90 with endeavor farm. It also scales BoE drops, old zone boes will flood markets on Midnight launch. This needs to be fixed, it will affect more than just RWF.
  2. Earthen characters can use party sync to get large amounts of experience with the exploration racial. Racial is honestly too OP, it should be lowered. Earthen damage racials need buffed so that should compensate.
  3. You can use a script to queue for an enter Midnight delves from anywhere in the world.
  4. Siren Isle and other elite areas can be farmed to skip 80-81, maybe to 82 in some cases.

Might be more that I don’t know about. Leave a reply if I missed something important. Blizzard please fix these exploits before launch.

These were on the list but moved, confirmed fixed by Blizz, GJ.

  1. Quests in Tirisfal Glades scale to current level during the questline with Arator. There are a lot of quests that can be pre completed this way, and they give lots of experience once they start scaling.
  2. War Within first craft experience still applies if you are level 80 or higher. Might have been fixed, unsure, if not it should be changed like it was for Dragonflight crafts.
  3. Mastery of the Timeways buff from Turbulent Timeways is still working on the Midnight Beta. If a player has this buff, it will work in Midnight, and they will level 30% faster. This will ruin world first 90 race, it MUST be fixed.
  4. Delver’s Call quests in War Within zones give more experience than they should. Most quests give 1k exp, they give 4k exp. This makes them viable for prestacking on fresh characters. They should be adjusted to a similar value.

I can also confirm that Endeavor XP is temporarily disabled in Midnight Early Access.

Furthermore, scaling for the older zones when doing Endeavor activities is disabled for the entire first month, and will return with the Endeavor that begins in early April.
