Test Realm Patch Notes: 2.4.3

[Concillian]

I can imagine all the crying that the community (read, mouth-breathers on the official forums) will be sobbing about, but I for one appreciate this. Having decided to level up a few lower level characters (I'm terrible, I had never levelled anything bar my main over 25 until this week. In two years.) I'm once again reminded of how goddamned terrible all that running around is. The sub-50 zones have some of the longest runs still in the damn game, and just being able to cross Ashenvale or (shudder) Desolace in less time is a tremendous benefit.

If you think about it though, it makes sense.

They made leveling easier in these levels, so you'll generate less money just from spending less time. So the cost reduction makes sense. It's probably in-line with what they expect people to have at that level.

The reduction in level just goes along with the whole making the leveling process easier thing.
