I'd prefer to level 1-70 without some monotone grinding of a single quest (yes know that I don't have to use any "clever use of game mechanincs"). I really hope Blizzard solves this ASAP. As others have suggested, make so that you only get full XP the first time you complete a quest with a char, or something similar.
^ I agree... that's the main reason why we try to bring visibility to these. Sometimes bugs like these will be reported on forums and will go ignored for months on end, but when 90% of the playerbase is aware of it, and willing to use it, that's when the devs usually solve it pretty quickly.
It could be already live and the hotfix thread that hasn't been updated. It has happened before.
But either way, there might be other similar leveling methods, and we can only hope they can extend the same hotfix to other quests as well. Should be easy enough to be done until tomorrow.
The problem right now is that people can do the quests on Normal, exit the game, change to T6 and get T6 xp. You can play the whole campain on normal and get T6 xp for every turn in quest.
Funny thing, after Patch 2.0 hit and before RoS came out, they already have had a patch up that dials down XP when turning in the same quest subsequently (there was Mira runs and similar), and they kinda quickly fixed it, as well as the Cursed Chest event placements.
Are you sure ? I tried it and it seems like i only got the t6 bonus at the "kill mira" quest.
I have tested all the quests before the start of S1, and, in fact, there are 3 quests, which allow you to make it at normal and to turn it on T6. I will not name the other two quests, but they are worse from exp/hour perspective. Also, I did thorough bug report, sending all information at hacks@blizzard.com. And, of course, it was not fixed in 6 months.
Probably, I had to make the video of all these quests just after the start of S1, as videos seem to work better than sending bug reports. At least, they did fix Alaric quest.

Thanks you for taking the time to report! Still haven't seen a blue confirmation of the Alaric hotfix being live, but it's great if it is.
Right now, on EU all quests give very little reward for the second completion. At least, the quests I have checked. There was some small patch, so it seems to be fixed. Also, quest duping was fixed. Although there are still some holes, as long as they are not public, it is fine.

My D3 armory
My Youtube Channel
People tested it on Twitch last night, it started with people doing it on Ghom. Last person i saw doing this before I went to bed was Modz.
You can even turn the Mira quest in 4 times on T6 if you do it right with 4 people.
01. Kill Mira on normal dont turn in.
02. Everyone leaves game and party and change to T6
03. Everyone starts the game individually
04. Player A turn the quest in. Joins Player B both turn in, Then A and B join C and turn in, and then A B C join D and turn in.
05. Rotate the order.
This needs to be nerfed !
