Although I don’t necessarily disagree with this change from a designer\/balance standpoint, I know all my leveling toons\u00a0under 60 will be very disappointed. Oddly, this hotfix\u00a0is not included on the list of hotfixes that blizzard links at the bottom of their post, as of now anyway. The original text can be found HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We are applying a hotfix\u00a0today to all level 1-60 dungeon quests for Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms dungeons which will significantly reduce the amount of experience they award.<\/p>\n

While dungeons should remain integral to our evolving storylines, and great places to collect gear in cooperative environments, we need to make sure each player\u2019s questing progress remains relevant as dungeon quests are completed. In many cases we\u2019re seeing players enter dungeons to complete quests, only to come out ahead of the leveling curve for the zones they\u2019re in.<\/p>\n

This change should allow players the opportunity to reap the benefits of running dungeons, while not outpacing the leveling flow from levels 1-60. At this time there are no plans for making any adjustments to dungeon quest experience for Outland, Northrend, and level 80+ Cataclysm dungeons.<\/p>\n

You can find a list of all of the latest hotfixes here: http:\/\/us.battle.net\/wow\/en\/blog\/1232869<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
