Blizzard announced the upcoming 50% experience value buff event on June 22, and later issued a blue post stating that it would restrict the behavior of dungeon farming. The official stated in the blue post that two changes will be made soon: 
- Adjust the behavior of monsters in most dungeons (including the new dungeons in the classic server of "Wrath of the Lich King") to prevent being infinitely trapped, Slow down and kite.
- At the same time, when there are large level differences among players on the same team, the experience points gained will be significantly reduced.
Currently, the WLK Classic Server Beta test server has been open for more than two weeks, and Blizzard has been making continuous changes. After the update on July 14, a player revealed an amazing news to Xiao O: is a mechanism that has been implemented in the current WLK test server client: when the level difference between large and small exceeds 5 levels, The experience value will be reduced to 1/10, which means a 90% reduction. Then Xiao O also found friends who are currently playing on the beta test server to confirm that this information is true. This change will have a great impact on the entire Classic Server game, and it also means that the brush-based upgrade business that has been flourishing in Classic Server for three years will soon become a thing of the past. And if nothing unexpected happens, this mechanism should be implemented before the release of WLK, most likely at the same time as the opening of the experience value buff.
One-stop upgrade by car will soon become history
Since the birth of World of Warcraft Classic Server, the upgrade business with brushes has been very popular, from Prison in the 1960s "Blood" Zurg " Marathon" Stratholme From the one-stop service to the TBC version of the Slave Pen and Shadow Maze, the invincible AoE profession of the mage has long been the myth of bringing bosses up to speed in the nostalgic server. Super Maraudon and other monster-pulling and A-mob actions that require strong operability have also brought some gameplay shocks to players in the classic server. Pulling hundreds of monsters at one time is really impressive. Due to the popularity and prosperity of the national server brushing upgrade business, after the TBC era, Paladin also began to join the team of brushing Stratholme, and it seems that the number is no less than that of mages. After more than two years of development in the classic server, players have become accustomed to upgrading by car when starting an alt account, because compared to completing tasks and spawning monsters by themselves, upgrading by car is much easier and does not require a lot of time. With repeated actions, you can quickly upgrade your character to the full level by spending only a small amount of money.
Xiao O said
Not only that, Blizzard will also restrict the wizard's single-player copy, so that the monsters in the copy will be immune to skills such as control and deceleration soon after entering the battle. Combined with the level 70 direct upgrade service released a few days ago, perhaps this new upgrade will no longer have the restriction that each account can only be purchased once. In this way, once the mechanism of this Beta test server is implemented, it means that players can only rely on completing tasks and killing monsters to upgrade, otherwise they must purchase the official direct upgrade service. It's hard to say whether this change is a good thing or a bad thing, because the upgrade of low-level dungeons has been around for more than ten years. Now that Blizzard has made changes, it is equivalent to changing the way players have been upgrading. At the same time, it also makes it impossible for those players who rely on trumpet upgrades as the main game content (or eating ribs) to continue to survive.
