Wowhead broke down the exact experience requirements to gain each level before and after the newDragonflightpatch and saw a drastic change: the XP requirement for each level had a reduction of between 74% and 78%. This massive change in experience meansWorld of Warcraftplayers can easily go from level 50 to 60 in a couple of hours, with some major quests giving over an entire level’s worth of experience.
The experience requirement for each level below 50 was also reduced, but at less drastic levels. That said, with some levels having XP requirements reduced by as much as 40%, leveling will still be faster than it was before, even at lower levels. Though the 50% Winds of Wisdom experience buff is officially gone, players can still level faster than they could before with these new experience requirements. Players can also still benefit from the18% experience buff from the Anniversary Event untilDragonflight’slaunch, and can still earn the bonus 10% from activating War Mode.
