Too lazy for a real post, but here’s Patch 3.2.2’s best kept secret:

AV now has a separate 70-79 bracket, worth roughly half the XP. I believe the heirloom items are supposed to work on battleground XP now, but that’s still a pretty huge nerf for levelling. I was hoping they’d bring the other battlegrounds up to AV level rather than nerfing it this way, but oh well.

I hope everyone is excited about getting shit on by feral druids!

EDIT: I take it back!

The experience gains in Alterac Valley were not adjusted in patch 3.2.2. The gains were percentage-based according to level brackets. Since the level brackets changed in 3.2.2, the experience gains decreased as a result. Because of this, we’ve added an across-the-board increase to experience gains in all Battlegrounds to compensate for the adverse affect on Alterac Valley that came as a result of the level bracket changes, as well as make gaining experience in our other Battlegrounds more viable.
