People are already doing it. Once you hit level 15 or whatever it is to get into stockades on alliance you can literally sit afk in a dungeon entrance for a couple day and be 60.
Actually shocked blizz didn’t just come out the gates with a boost since it’s essentially already happening without them getting a cut of it.
Oh okay it sounded weird because he makes it seem like there’s an NPC or something in stockades that will kill shit for you and you can just hang out in there all day collecting XP.
So you’re still gonna need someone at level 60 to do the work for you which is not gonna happen on day one.
Boosters are real people, and the best boosters are actual players who are farming gold for themselves. The gold sellers are usually pretty shitty and very hit or miss on quality.
Happy to say I only farm gold for myself, and by God you really have to do fucl all boosting when you only take of yourself, and then guild shit aswell obv
Not at all the same as being able to buy a boost straight to the level you want instantly. It still takes a long time to mage boost, and not instant like Blizzard’s. Really being dishonest here
Bit of an over exaggeration. Boosting has actually been nerfed from the 2019 version. Horde perspective:
10-18 RFC takes an evening and money, unless you can scoop in for free with a mage boosting an alt.
18-27 SFK costing 3-5g per run, hit and miss with booster, takes a couple of evenings.
27-42 SM costing 5-7g per run, armoury is challenging to one pull and for 90%+ success requires a decent mage with appropriate boosting gear. Cathedral has been nerfed and requires a very janky spot for the kill phase, and is also unreliable requiring a mage with engineering and PvP trinket to make it consistent, easily a couple of evenings and is just as if not more efficient to join cleave groups.
42-47(50) ZF the range at which you get xp here has been nerfed requiring escorting people through the dungeon, or kiting them back to the start and killing with coc. I boosted a couple of friends their last night with 11 minute runs. This is only just more efficient than a cleave group and that is due to time finding a group. Take 3-4 evenings.
47(50)+ ST learnt the boost last night on my 53 mage, and brought a friend in, 30-50k xp per hour.
Boosting is a challenging game for mages to learn and invest in, and is not as efficient as people make out. It costs a lot of gold to afk level a character from 10-60 and takes much longer than a couple of days. Nobody is getting boosted on their first 60, unless it's help from a guildy to rush a couple of levels.
Nobody is getting boosted on their first 60, unless they buy gold to do it
agreed on the body of your post, but fix that part. people for sure do it, if they're willing to pay blizz for a boost they're willing to buy gold for the same boost even if it requires afking for days.
