I’m a huge advocate for skips for many of the complaints mentioned: time is short, friends are so far away, less playtime, the barrier for entry is catastrophic.

I don’t think that justifies a skip to endgame, though. Skipping to the current expansion is fine, skipping to the end of the current expansion just makes me question why they bothered to develop the leveling content for the expansion at all.

You have two years to get through this expansion. Please enjoy it.

You’re welcome to do endgame once you get there, but if you’re so pressed on time you can’t even get *to* your friends I can’t imagine you’ll have the time to learn your job well enough to be as asset to them once you finally reach the level cap.
