I can guarantee you that is way more than how many characters could fly in TBC. 5k gold was a crapton of money.
Not to mention they were per character basis.
I just unlocked flying and it took me a little over a week of just doing WQs and killing convenient rares that appeared when I was near… It takes no more than two hours a day to do both zones…
No you didn’t. Blatant exaggerations don’t further your cause.
I did rep grinds for as long as it took me to do dailies/WQs in the zones, on days when I felt like doing them, and I was finished in 15 days.
If you were doing rep grinds for 8 to 10 hours a day and barely got it in 14 days, you’re either flat out fudging your time spent or you are seriously doing something very, very wrong.
Or they’re playing more legitimate content you know… And every time they do a couple wqs they log off because there is better games out there?
Seriously flying shouldn’t be locked behind wqs. Let people do it via wqs if they want. Make it the fastest way to do it even. Making it the only way to do it when it’s boring solo afk content? Makes zero sense.
