In World of Warcraft Classic's Season of Discovery, players are finding a new way to level up faster by sleeping rough in-game. An added feature with the latest update, sleeping bags are becoming ubiquitous around capital cities and dungeons as a means to gain extra experience points (XP). A sleeping bag provides a 1% XP buff for one minute to players and their party, stacking up to a 3% bonus for a three-minute nap, effective for two hours. This creative XP boost has been humorously tied to in-game economic inflation and reflects players' continuous pursuit of efficient leveling, especially post-GDKP era, where players have amassed gold with fewer expenditures available.

Why are World of Warcraft Classic players choosing to sleep in-game and how does it benefit them?

Sleeping in-game with the new sleeping bag item allows players to gain a stacking XP buff, netting up to a 3% increase for two hours after resting together for three minutes. This helps speed up the leveling process, making it an advantageous strategy for players wanting to progress faster in the game.

Providing additional background: World of Warcraft Classic is a re-release of Blizzard Entertainment's original World of Warcraft game, offering a nostalgic experience for players who want to relive the early days of the MMORPG. It has gained popularity for preserving the original game mechanics and content while providing occasional updates and seasonal content through initiatives such as the Season of Discovery.
