No sir, I don't like it.
One positive thing that will come out of this is that you no longer need to buy heirlooms for your friends if im understanding this correctly. If heirlooms xp will no longer stack with raf, you can rock heirlooms while your buddy has same xp gain.This is welcome change since ive spent tons of gold on getting heirlooms for my friends (i recruited over 10 of them, got all mounts and pets and have 3 rewards pending).
blizzard your foot is gone stop shooting at it
- THE GAME IS TOO EASY AND YOU CAN MAX LEVEL IN 5 HOURS! MAKE IT HARDER LIKE VANILLA!- GG BLIZZ! NOW I CAN"T LEVEL FAST OMG! WHY EVEN PLAY! I'M UNSUB! #NEVERRAF
Hey Blizz, you're getting good at this whole "slice your wrist" thing. Keep it up!
The amount of salt here from all the pleb casuals and training-wheels scrubs. Wow. God forbid you spend a couple of days in a single zone.
I'm surprised they didn't add additional rewards to compensate for the reduction in exp. An increase in the amount of summons? Or something completely new, say, all appearances gained by your buddy are also added to your collection?
What the actual duck did I just read?
Maybe they just want a more homogenised and smooth experience across all parts of the game. Then again, one can argue that if they wanted that, there are a lot of other things they could have done first instead. I'm just going to not jump into conclusions like calling that they want to sell more character boosts or whatever. As far as I'm concerned, 3 friends of mine failed to get hooked onto WoW because apparently RaF+Dungeon spam wasn't very fun. Isn't it possible Blizz just want to keep newcomers engaged while still keeping benefits for players who try to bring their friends into the game?Let's just hope BfA brings more changes like these, especially on other parts of the game that feel very "gimme gimme".
FU Blizz. Why Recruit A Friend doesn't work in all countries. I invited a friend to a game and we both have NO BONUS cause we live in Poland. I have more friends who want to play WoW, but now you can kiss my a.s.
They want you to "Recruit an actual friend" and not abuse the RAF-buffs to powerlevel alts etc. - I think it's a good change for the game. Maybe not necessarily important but good.
They've made this less attractive in my opinion. Bad decision.
