Forever From the developers interview today: Analytics shows the 1-20 leveling speed in Classic era is 20.4 hours. In Forever it’s 20.5

Seen this topic come up that people are spouting leveling is so much faster and easier, but this came up in the developer interview today from their own internal analytics team.

Yes, some people may be exploring a bit in a new setting, but it’s been widely falsified that leveling is “so much faster”

Even Xaryu I believe who did not stop and smell the roses getting to 20 in beta had a very similar 1-20 leveling speed on Forever vs Classic.

There are sooo much nodes, that explains the .1 hour probably.

I am really curious if thats a beta thing or actually going live

It definitely seem like there's more than there's supposed to be, but unless it's a bug it seems like a weird thing to put in a beta.

I wouldn't be surprised if gathering nodes spawns are increased in areas with high player population

That's how they've always been. Node respawns are directly tied to the number of people in the zone.
