Summary
World of Warcraftjust improved Follower Dungeons by drastically increasing the daily instance limit and removing the experience penalty for teaming up with NPCs. Now, players can enter up to 50 Follower Dungeons a day inWorld of Warcraft, effectively removing all restrictions from the new feature.
Follower Dungeons is a new system that was added to the game inWorld of Warcraft: DragonflightPatch 10.2.5, Seeds of Renewal. Using the feature, players could enter up to 10 NormalDragonflightdungeons a day witha team of popularWoWNPCsto test out new roles or fill out vacant party slots. Characters received 5% less experience per NPC. However, there was only up to a 20% penalty for a full team of followers.
Now,World of Warcrafthas completely removed almost every penalty from Follower Dungeons. According to aforum post fromWoWcommunity manager Linxy, as of the weekly reset on February 26, players can enter up to 50 Follower Dungeons per 24-hour period – five times the previous limitation. Additionally, the experience penalty characters get for each follower has been removed, granting them full XP gains regardless of the team composition.
World of Warcraft Lifts All Restrictions from Follower Dungeons
To put this new 50 dungeon limit into perspective, clearing aDragonflight dungeon with Followers inWorld of Warcraftusually takes no less than 20 minutes. Clearing 50 dungeons at this pace would take roughly 16 hours out of the day. Unless players are spending every waking moment farming these instances, most will never encounter this limit.
Players are glad to see the Follower Dungeons feature become even better than before. While it is not the most efficient way to level up inWorld of Warcraft, having the option to enter a dungeon solo is useful for those trying out new builds or specializations, who aren’t confident enough to play with other players yet, or who simply prefer to play solo or at their own pace. As an entirely optional system, Follower Dungeons are a big win for the game – and the removal of thelimitations from thisWorld of Warcraftfeatureeliminated virtually every one of its downsides.
Some fans have big hopes for Follower Dungeons. Players are wondering ifWorld of Warcraftwill eventually let them customize their NPC followers, or even fight alongsideiconicWoWheroes like Alleriaor Anduin in future expansions. Fans will have to wait and see whatWorld of Warcraftdoes with Follower Dungeons in the future, but so far, every update to the system has been a step in the right direction.
