The majority WANTS increased dungeon XP (Blizzard update, 10 Nov)

10 Nov 2026 · Kaivax on the official forums

TL;DR
  • A hotfix deployed on Sunday, November 8 raised dungeon kill XP from 40% to 60% of Classic Era values.
  • Blizzard says it has tracked dungeon XP "very carefully" since the hotfix.
  • Blizzard feels the adjustment is working well and produces dungeon leveling speeds that fit with the rest of WoW Forever content.
  • The response came in a forum thread arguing that the majority of players want increased dungeon XP, where one player claimed dungeon XP was 36% of vanilla values.

We’ve tracked this very carefully, and the hotfix that we deployed on Sunday, November 8 took dungeon kill XP from 40% of the values in Classic Era to 60% of the values in Classic Era. We have subsequently felt that the adjustment is working well to produce dungeon leveling speeds that fit with the rest of WoW Forever content.
