No crap, they hit the "OMFG there is no way I am doing this on more than one toon" wall and quit.



^^^^


This.


So it looks like about 1 out of 3 level 80s were leveled to 85. Now add in all those who hit 85 then quit shortly after, that's an even more dismal number comparatively.


The saddest part of all is that it only takes two to three weeks casually playing to go from 80 to 85, yet people still don't want to do it more than once, because the content is just that bad.

Those percentages are about as uselessa as something can possibly be.

I got all 10 of my 80's to 85 - that's no problem at all. Grinding long and miserable heroics, grinding long and miserable rep grinds, and the pug unfriendliness of the first set or raids made doing anything for all of them beyond that a grim prospect.

Enter firelands daily grind from hell that makes all other rep grinds look trivial and my desire to log in went away.

I'm also not a big fan of of how the firelands raid is setup, where you have to clear tons of trash just to do anything (similar to but far worse than ICC) and also don't care for the BOE bonanza (that's also somewhat similar to ICC but far worse).

Heh, I got my Priest to 85 and quit. I picked the WRONG class to start the expac off with, for sure.

Let's see here before I left in Jan. I had 3 toons at 85, Pally, Hunter, DK. My Shaman is sitting at 83 or 84 at the moment, leveled him up before Cata Release, my Warrior was either at level 82 or 83, my mage was there as well. My other hunter was still sitting at 80.

Once I saw that I couldn't craft top gear due to the fact that orbs were BOP, I said screw it, I'm not running all my crafters through dungeons so I can make gear.

i am not sure about the validity of this list but i am happy to see rogues near the bottom. i am of the mind that any stealth class should have significant dps reduction just for getting an ability as useful as stealth...but with druids being so overpowered blizzard must have gutted rogues for some other reason

Yep, got to 85 on my Rogue and was like... uh... no thanks, not again.

Sadly, I tried. I think I have a a whole rift .. er.. pack of characters in the 80-84 range (priests, mages, couple of pallies, another DK, druid, rogue, warlock, I think there was a SP in there somewhere.)


Just couldn't take it.

Woot - go rogue! Always in the bottom!

I feel sad for my favorite class.
