Help those on non quick-level servers!

When the expansion comes and they do the quick leveling servers from 20-60 Blizzard needs to give the players that leveled up on normal leveling servers an extra bonus like gold or exp or mounts (please and epic mount) for the 70-80 or something to make it fair, otherwise everyone will go to the quick-level servers.

We are not releasing quick leveling realms. We are planning to adjust leveling a bit to help make it go a bit quicker and when we do, this will affect all realms not just specific ones.

How about a repeatable quest to get us from level 1 to level 58 instantly? :D One level gain per turnin? I like that...


Let me think about that one......








No.

Q u o t e:


When we say "leveling curve go a bit quicker" do we mean more exp per quest/mob? Or is there something else being done, like more localized quests in specific zones?

I'm thinking the former, because the latter might be more time consuming and Blizz might actually have to finish certain quest lines like "The Missing Diplomat" ^_^


We don't have specific details that we can share with you just yet. How we go about it is going to depend on just how fast we feel is comfortable for leveling. We have a couple of other things that are going to help with the leveling also such as some of the changes we are making to Dustwallow Marsh for one. There will be more things to do there.

Wait a minute... ooooh, nice to know it'll be getting a facelift at least at the questing level. But I guess thats expected, what with Jaina there and her being important to the Arthas storyline. Care to shed a bit more light on these 'changes'?


Sometimes, as a candle is oft to do, I have to cast a few shadows along with the light. This is the case in regard to your question here.

Q u o t e:
@Neth: Do these changes come with the expansion or a patch BEFORE the expansion? Don't have to say when the patch was released... I'm just curious if this is a change that is going to be released with the expansion upgrade (or say, as a Patch 2.0 right before).


Some things (as far as what we plan/know right now) are going to be implemented prior to the expansion. Exact details of what and when I couldn't give you. We'll keep everyone informed as we go along though. I can't guarantee anything as of yet since it's all about scheduling.
