Guild Wars 2

So I have a small handful of alts that I made at launch that I never ended up playing, and thanks to the excitement of an incoming new expansion, I opted to finally try playing a couple of them. I realized that they had birthday gifts including the scroll that instantly levels to 20, so I opted to do just that on one of those alts before proceeding to run through the starter instance I was in. Surprise: turns out that first instance doesn’t actually downscale, so while most players are running around with a few hundred health, I have nearly 2,000 HP, and my attacks one-shot all the enemies, save the final boss who admirably lasted around 30 seconds.

I’ll grant it’s such an unusual circumstance that those starting instances don’t really need downscaling, but for the sake of not having veterans like myself accidentally ruining the fun of brand new players, can this please be fixed?

This explains so much when I was trying to level my Alt lol

Please don’t. The starting areas with auto attack 1 to kill a boss.. especially when you’re alone is unnecessarily tedious.
I mean you don’t even get access to other skills anymore. If they removed the NPE and did this then fine, but until then back off.
