Will you be leveling alts in patch 7.2?

Yes, I know patch 7.2 is all about flying class mounts and new legendaries and new weekly Broken Shore content, but what I’m really looking forward to is finally leveling my alts.

I’ve always played a Druid as a main in WoW ever since the game launched. I played him all the way through Legion beta, but when Legion launched I decided to start with my Monk alt to replay the content from a fresh angle thinking I’ll get back to my Druid soon. That…didn’t happen.

First, the tweaks to the Monk class in Legion made them very enjoyable to play, at least for the DPS and healing specs. Soloing as DPS was a breeze, and healing in dungeons and raids feels solid. On top of that, this expansion isn’t terribly solo friendly. The devs made the content very deep and rewarding, which is great on your main, but not so great for your alt.

So now my main is my alt and my alt is my main. But I feel kinda guilty having left my tried and true Druid buddy behind. My half-hearted attempts to level him through the same content have gotten him as far as 107. Lately alt catch up mechanisms have been rolling out — like Artifact Power boosts — and there are more on the way, but what has me excited about 7.2, honestly, is simply new content for my Druid to dig into in order to finish leveling up.

Will you be taking advantage of patch 7.2 when it goes live on Tuesday to play catch up with any of your alt army?
