BDGG confesses to paying for PVP carries for World First Race

Why, imo, the hate is here to some extent.

The carrier is gimped by dead weight carries and wins…means they just won a 2 on 1 all by themselves. That can sting the ego.

Same for the PVE carries. Guild x has stringent selection for all 25 slots. And has issues.

There is carry guild X. Works out the way they can give up 3 carry slots and still run the raid with 100% guaranteed success not wiping all night.

all of them banned from wow all addons banned make it illegal to have carries and have a team to monitor for carries or bots.

Lol what?.

It’s not about it being easier or not it’s about an additional source of gear in the first week when loot lockouts are hard to come by. For the rest of us who won’t kill everything in a week or 2 it doesn’t matter.

Yes but it is about it being easier.
They don’t need to fuss about with gear, and the randomness of it all, and simple just go - buy the boost and be guaranteed what they wanted to fill in that slot.

That seems to be like it’s about ‘easier’ for me :man_shrugging: and having the edge.

It does matter simply from a core-game loop point of view with regards to gearing which even if people aren’t doing the content that necessitates these actions will still feel like they want to do because they see a work around but Blizz won’t do anything about that because Ion and others there are of the agreement that they want players dabbling in every bit of content.

how do separate paid carry from a guild giving up slot 25, pvp slot 2 to the returning player and just hooking up a friend.

You see some players in the this game are nice to their friends. Been so long dude, cool you are back.

Here is slot 25/2. Sit there look pretty and we will get you up to speed a bit fast. All this for free.

Also Carries tend to not make the raid/pvp char the deal maker you see. 200K goes to char x. Group invite comes from player y.

First, there are piloted and non piloted boosts. Piloted means the Gladiator logs into your account and plays it for you. That means the guy behind the 1800 rating account is 3000 rating.

Second, 8 gladiators with 2 guys just AFK is gonna ROFL stomp a 1800 team easily. You obviously don’t play RBG

And that, IIRC, is illegal.

Has nothing to do with boosting. If Team A was going to win no matter what, the problem isn’t the boost. The problem is Team B’s skill level and ability.

Sure, it sucks to know 2 people have paid to be carried, but the boost itself is not the underlying issue because at some point, Team A and Team B would have matched up and Team B still would’ve gotten steamrollered.

You are, effectively fighting against a self-handicapped team and still loosing.

Uh no top 10 guild buys tokens lol. I don’t think you realize how much gold you make from raid boosting these guilds probably went into this tier with half a bil or more banked.

How to kill the entire top end scene over night with the amount of consumables and other bs blizz demands right now.

Tell that to the 1800 learning groups I do all the time who beat teams like that on and off.

This is the whole “I can’t hit 1600 because boosters!” thing all over again, when you do finally find these guys in game, they’re just pressing all their CC buttons at once, overlapping, then wondering why they’re getting destroyed 5 seconds later.

Sharing accounts is against ToS but Blizzard doesn’t actually enforce it 95% of the time. Several world first guilds have been caught on stream doing this and Blizzard doesn’t seem to care.

most of my friends quit wow over the course of the past few expansions, i see them irl but its frustrating to have few people to play wow with.

All top guilds were doing it, you either join the club or don’t compete.

This is Blizzards problem, not BDGG’s, or Limit’s, or Echo’s. PvP gear was still too good for PvE (you could get a max level weapon LONG before a pve one)
