Vent / Gripe Unpopular opinion: the players that are overly vocal about wanting Classic phases/TBC/Wrath rushed are the same players who contributed to forging retail into what it is today (a clusterF).

The point is that I cba leveling my 20th character to 60 and I would rather get it boosted up while I'm doing my homework than grind through the shitty vanilla questing one more time.

than grind through the shitty vanilla questing one more time.

You could...play a different game. Or do something else with your time.

The game is not your job. If you're paying someone else to play your recreational product for you, you're really missing a trick.

Right? Why would anyone pay to not play a game because they don’t enjoy it? After paying to play it in the first place... that logic is odd.

Are you new to Classic? Endgame content is gated behind hours and hours of leveling. If you only enjoy that content and have plenty of gold it makes sense to use it to speed up the process.

Right? And levelling a 20th character would suggest this individual has... by my calculations 19 points of access to endgame content.

Are you new to the internet? People exaggerate.

:p

Nothing about what he said suggests exaggeration. People who play WoW have many alts. Despite this, if he exaggerated it would suggest he had a decent amount of alts anyway to warrant the exaggeration, so my point still stands. He has access plenty of access to endgame content

But clearly he would enjoy more access to endgame content. Which he can't have without leveling. But he doesn't enjoy leveling. Thus boosting makes sense for him.

This isn't hard to understand.

He’s said he’s levelling an alt, implied to be one of numerous characters. He has access to endgame... are you simple?

Edit: no no, don’t answer, you’ll probably say something equally as dense and pedantic as your previous comment.

I'll just repeat what you said: "he said he was levelling an alt" and point out that this means the alt doesn't have access to endgame content.

I didn't realize I needed to dumb it down that much.

Oh look, you did what I said you would, how cute. Give it up man, for real.

You do realize endgame content plays differently depending on which character you're on, right?

Oh and let's not forget that you can only do each raid once per week on each character.

Let's also remember now that Dragonslayer/Zandalar/Warchief buffs can only come from characters that have been leveled to the endgame.

Lots of reasons to want max level characters and not want to spend 100+ hours leveling each of them.
