You mean banning GDKP was not the economic panacea it was advertised to be?!
Color me shocked…
And also label all those forum warriors who advocated banning GDKP’s liars…

I was in the process of doing the post gnomer quests for crafting recipes just to see the cost and how it will come together.
I saw the cost of recipes and saw you have to buy stuff from other crafters so you know it’s going to cost a lot.
I’m not a fan of big gold syncs in discovery seasons. The point of seasons isn’t supposed to be about gold like it is in Classic. It’s a limited time run for people to enjoy seasonal stuff, not grind gold.
The whole gold issue really makes the seasons feel bad in my opinion.

What?
Are you saying recipes that drop during the first raid lockout of the phase are expensive?
Time to riot, I guess.

Nah. 90% of the population bought their gold before the lockdown, so it’s the 10% (like myself) that didn’t stock up on gold asap that have to…pay…the price. Pun intended I guess.
They’ll be able to buy whatever epic they want immediately without worry of cost. No rioting necessary.

that’s if anyone sticks around for aq/naxx
Players: Epics are too easy to get! Make them harder to get!
Blizzard: Okay.
Players: Wait, no, go back.

Banning GDKP{'s no doubt fixed this problem so you’ll delete this post… oh wait…
At what point were you spending 1500g for one run in Naxx bro lmao
Detail that list please
25g is nothing.
Honestly feel like many players are stuck with a classic WoW approach, which is fine, but that won’t cut it here if you don’t want to be standing around all week trying to get stuff.
This is CHEAP. I’m not trying to flex here either. The mounts are CHEAP. These plans are CHEAP. Getting an epic crafted item miles better than your bis tier set from the first patch for 100g total IS CHEAP.
Go into SM and smack a few mobs around in GY. Go fight overworld level 40 normal mobs if you cant do that. If you are the right kinda class, you can straight up solo bosses in the current “end game” dungeons. Go get some pre-bis, do a gnomer and hope you get some souped up loot, and go out in the world and literally ONE SHOT everything.
If you aren’t out there smacking around level 45 mobs for greens and raw gold, you are doing it all wrong. Stop fishing and doing quests (first few weeks is a terrible time to do quests for gold in terms of efficiency.)
We’re at the point where gold sinks need to be introduced. People that put any effort whatsoever into farming gold are just stacking it and stacking it. I had to stop playing p1 all together because I hit the point where I felt like the gold had just become entirely worthless.
I’m not shaming anyone here. Just giving some stupid advice.
Agree with the OP, the cost of these materials may incentivize people to buy gold. Professions should be banned along with GDKPs.
Phase has been out for 1 week and this axe is unbelievably rare. I feel like people forgot just how low the Uld blue drop rates are.
There is not much to measure value of this axe on at the moment. Probably the first one, maybe the only one, to hit your server. I have yet to ping a pendulum of doom on my scans.
People bought gold before the GDKPs were banned. This decision was just made.
You guys are also missing the entire point. It’s nuts. I feel like you all have collectively confused yourselves on what the GDKP ban would accomplish. You are wrong about this.
Banning GDKPs means that people cannot go and pay for raid gear now. Paying a guild to run Gnomer for the epic 2h axe is no longer an option. The players that either farm gold or swipe are going to spend MORE GOLD on BoEs. Seeing the price of BoEs go up as a result of the GKDP ban is such a rudimentary form of supply and demand. Econ 101.
They did not ban swiping either. They banned GDKPs. You should stop listening to whoever told you this because they are wrong.

Let’s assume you are a melle and allow for only one wipe:
- flask x2
- frost pot x4
- shadow pot x4
- arcane pot x1
- nature pot x2
- mongoose x10
- elixir of giant x10
- firewater x 10
- weapon stone x5
- lip x10
- fap x5
- healing pot x10
- rage pot / thistle tea x 20
- food buff x20
- boon x2
If the run goes for more than 4 hours you need a 3rd flask, if you wipe more than 1 time you will need more shadow or frost pots.

You’re taking 5 hours to clear Naxx bro? Why 10 mongoose, 10 elixir of giant, etc?
Also throw some G values up on those and let’s see what it adds up to

Because melle die quite often. Do you want to end up without consumes?
Of course the extra roll over to next run, but if you bring less you risk running out midrun.
No. The runs I go to usually take about 3hours, but people know what they are doing.
During progression it takes much longer and same if you are running with different people each week. For some reason new people always struggle on 4h.
Well I can give you Era values but I assume that SoD will be decently cheaper since there will probably be more supply and they may make black lotus like in SoM which greatly decreased flask price.
- flask x2 - 750g = 1500g
- frost pot x4 - 40g = 160g
- shadow pot x4 - 80g = 320g
- arcane pot x1 - 20g = 20g
- nature pot x2 - 50g = 100g
- mongoose x10 - 40g = 400g
- elixir of giant x10 - 15g = 150g
- firewater x 10 - 40g = 400g
- weapon stone x5 - 90g = 450g
- lip x10 - 15g = 150g
- fap x5 - 15g = 75g
- healing pot x10 - 1g = 10g
- rage pot / thistle tea x 20 - 10 to 40g = 200g
- food buff x20 - 1g = 20g
- boon x2 - 10g = 20g
Total 3975 gold
A good amount may roll over to the next week and I also reduced prices in my 300-1500g assuming SoD consume prices not current Era prices.
Just buy some gold get banned play another game. Problem solved.
Lol, if some of these people think I’m paying that much they’re drunk… I’ll find it myself or not at all. I ain’t made of gold…
Bro
A “group that knows what theyr’e doing” taking 3+ hours
750g for a flask???
Lmaooooooo
Legit trolling
