World of Warcraft Season of Discovery: Game Producer Crushes Supply Box XP Farmers' Hopes

Feb 07, 2024 1:43 PM

The recent update from a World of Warcraft Classic producer has thwarted the plans of players attempting to gain an early XP boost in the upcoming Season of Discovery. Players had been stockpiling Waylaid Supply boxes with the strategy of turning them in once the new phase begins to gain immediate XP gains with the increased level cap. However, the producer clarified on Twitter that these boxes will not grant XP after players reach level 25, rendering the efforts of many to farm and stock these supplies somewhat futile. With Phase 2 set to deliver exciting new content, including a dungeon-turned-raid and several new zones, the game's community is bubbling with anticipation despite this setback.

Can Waylaid Supply boxes be used to gain an XP advantage in World of Warcraft Classic's Season of Discovery?

No, Waylaid Supply boxes will not provide XP once players surpass level 25 in the game, as confirmed by a game producer, nullifying the benefits of stockpiling them for the new phase.

World of Warcraft Classic is a nostalgic re-creation of the original World of Warcraft experience, featuring gameplay and environments as they were before the release of subsequent expansions. Players engage in quests, raids, and PVP battles, mimicking the 2006 version of the game. The game's Season of Discovery promises to bring back players to earlier, simpler times with a new raid and the thrill of leveling up all over again, just as the original game was known for its community-driven adventures and ever-evolving fantasy world.

Looks like the World of Warcraft Classic community's strategy of stockpiling Waylaid Supply boxes for a XP boost in the upcoming Season of Discovery has hit a snag. It's always interesting to see how players adapt and react to these kinds of curveballs, but with Phase 2 on the horizon, there's still plenty of anticipation for new content and challenges in the game's nostalgic world.
