The classic experience - “It’s ok to get nothing, as long as everyone else is getting everything! yay!”
Play another game if being rewarded is all you want.
I’ll get flamed for this, but this is why GDKP was so nice. Even if you didn’t win any loot, as long as you contributed you still felt like you got to walk away with something by getting a gold cut at the end.
I’ve done 3 full MC clears and it took until the end of the 3rd run for me to win my first item under the 2SR system. While it was great to see my friends get loot the first 2 runs, it felt pretty bad to come up with nothing after buying all the consumes and getting world buffed.
Exactly. And even buyers who get outbid on an item they wanted can console themselves with the fact that they will profit from the high bid at the end.
Basically the only sad faces at the end of GDKPs are those who screwed up and got their cut reduced as punishment. And they deserved that.
Oh my god, GDKP isn’t coming back, can we please get through a topic about anything without people crying about GDKP.
I personally don’t want it to be on fresh. I’m mainly a Whitemane guy and like the server having something unique to offer.
So, raiding’s not fun unless you’re guaranteed to get something?
That’s like not playing PvP games unless you win only.
By design, you’re not supposed to every time.
Theyve been completely unhinged about the GDKP ban for a year now. Theres been DDoS attempts over it. An entire planetary supply of salt all because they cant use RMT’d gold to buy gear.
Fun fact: a large chunk of them have taken to “silent auctions” instead where they hit a venmo/cashapp account, skipping RMT’d gold entirely, to buy gear. The bidding is entirely done via discord.
The issue is that several former GDKP groups have had someone dump the account and run off with the cash, going completely radio silent and off grid, absconding with - in at least 1 case - 5 digits worth of cash leaving the rest of the group with zero recourse due to the nature of the transactions the account is being used for.
You love to see it.
I mean, it’s more fun when you are. So I choose to raid on Whitemane.
It’s not fun when having a sizeable pile of gold is required to get anywhere, turning raids into marketplaces.
The average player wants to roll on gear, not buy it through GDKP.
Hence the ban- it has enough power to change endgame, and it has before, Classic 2019.
People who engage are just afraid of losing rolls.
It’s not healthy when no one plays the game ‘normally’ because all PvE requires bidding.
Are you having fun with your guild? Are you being social with your guild?
This era of WoW wasn’t about getting all the loots handed to you. It was about experiencing the journey with people you enjoy playing the game with. Obviously getting good loot is nice, but it shouldn’t be your main focus.
What if we did GDKP…but without the ‘G’?
“I dont lose points for this item because im a tank and blah blah blah”
Another sunrise , another day where I don’t see any player benefiting from GDKP, life’s good , awesome game .
Everyone report OP he is clearly a cheater and loves to buy gold. Violating TOS
Swiper no swiping , swiper no swiping
Ooooooh maaan!!
Seethe and keep clowning
new copypasta just dropped
I would never raid with a raid that allows to roll for loot. It can happen that some person wins all loot, just because he is lucky.
Always raid with a loot council, the person with the worst item / needs it most will then get the loot.
Loot Council is fine until the Guild Master’s girlfriend/wife gets all the loot.
This is a myth.
Increase loot!
interesting, a month, u must be playing on different servers to the rest of us, mc only opened 16 days ago
