Mists of Pandaria General Information & Discussion - Release Date 9/25/12

I can't recall in previous xpacs when the xp reductions came in, was it the pre-launch patch or the xpac launch? Those new sub-85 amounts are really nice to see while I still have 5 teams left to get from 81-85 and would like to do so before launch.

I actually just mentioned this in another thread:

No, there is no Blizzard source yet, but the change was just made with one of the latest beta builds. Why would they bother to lower the experience needed to level so late in the beta if they had no intention of making it live? And when have they not nerfed prior expansion experience when a new one was released?

The announcement on lowering XP needed for Wrath came out after 4.0.1 was already on live servers and about 3 weeks before Cata (4.0.3a) actually went live - http://wow.joystiq.com/2010/11/18/wr...reduced-by-20/

Yeah, I was thinking it should go live with 5.0 along with removal of guild xp cap but couldn't remember back to Cata or Lich launches. So pretty much should only have to level one more team under the old xp rates and then have the last 4 under the new....hoping anyway as that would mean I'll def have all classes at 85 in time for MoP if that's the situation
