WoW banner - Image 1There's a concern underway right now over at the World of Warcraft forums, although this matter probably concerns casual players a bit more than usual. It's regarding rested exp - the x2 bonus you get for killing monsters while your character's still in the rested state.

Getting back to our subject matter, Goggins over at the forums was posting two problems with rested exp that he hoped would get addressed "now":

1. Double the rate at which we earn rested XP.

2. Make rested XP = 3x base xp instead of 2x (not sure if it is really double the XP or what the bonus is but increase the bonus.


Blizzard representative Nethaera dropped by soon after to reply. And while it was more of the routine "We're working on it - we'll tell you as we update," we couldn't help but smile at the lady's creative way of stating her message:


We haven't said how we plan to make the gain of experience go faster. What you are making at this point is a suggestion of what you think we should do, which is fine if you wish, but we do have ideas of how we want to go about it that we'll fill everyone in on at a later point in time.


"Now" is never a really good time frame for us. ;) When you say "now", you generally mean, today, right now, this moment. We're not ready for "now" right now. We'll get it in though, later, which could be sooner to a degree than late later, but we shall see how it goes.


Like we said, we'll just have to wait until the developer updates. Then again, if future replies are as amusing as this one, the wait won't be as bad as we'd anticipate.
