The development team realizes that this is resulting in a very jarring experience moving from Draenor to the Broken Isles, and plans to adjust Legion content to be more in-line with where it should be as leveling content in a future patch. Essentially due to de-powering the Artifact, we needed to make outdoor Legion mobs weaker than earlier content otherwise, max level players would find themselves suddenly having a much harder time with outdoor world content such as World Quests. There is also a bit of weirdness at the moment with mob HP once you reach Legion content. If you're still finding it slower that it was a couple of weeks ago after those hotfixes, specifics about where you are, what you're fighting, and what spec you're playing would be extremely helpful for identifying any remaining issues. The intention was never to make leveling slower than it was in 7.3.5. Since the pre-patch we've made a large number of hotfixes and changes to leveling content, and are continuing to find and fix bugs wherever possible. We’ve included the largest part of that post below:īlizzard Makes WoW Leveling Faster for All Levels From 40-100 through Battle for Azeroth Patch 8.0.1 Hotfix

Players have also shared their concerns about the slow speed of leveling since the pre-patch, and in a new blue post on the game’s official forums, community manager ‘Ythisens’ addressed some these concerns. The 8.0 pre-patch launch hasn’t been the smoothest, and Blizzard has already deployed various hotfixes to address the apparent account, login and stat squish issues.
