compared to world buffs they are, yes 
which just means world buffs are overpowered, not that flasks are weak and deserve to be cheap
150 spell power is extremely overtuned. not weak.

No, hes just fabricating a story based off 1 random video he saw and claiming it as an absolute.
Followed by “there’s no proof cause I can’t record it because X reason”
I’ve seen handfuls of Hunters mining/herbing with names like “javdysldberzf” and I’ll msg them and be like “jajaja I’m a bot reply if your not” and they never reply. I am by no way saying every character out farming is this though. I’d say roughly 30% of my encounters. Also not uncommon to see them just standing idle on node spawns waiting as well.
yeah i was gonna say, as if countless people aren’t streaming the game constantly every day lol
Yeah record 24/7 on the off chance it happens. 
I get the feeling some of these posters run bots.
lotus is rising right back to where it was, hopefully blizz will monitor this and add the sod change for chance off herbs please

This is the real fix.
Don’t know how that’s possible. I got lectured in this very thread by some economics major who totally understands how supply and demand work that that wouldn’t happen.
In fact, he’s still posting in this thread. Now denying there’s such a thing as the black lotus mafia. It’s not like they literally named themselves the black lotus mafia.
Also, people trying to downplay the existence and impact of bots is very strange to me. My rational mind tries to find a reason people say such things. Simply being naive is a possibility, but you have to also consider the fact that Classic Botting and gold selling is a multi-million dollar industry. That’s a big reason for them to try and diminish the amount of bots and their effect on the game.
you don’t deserve the SoM change not without harder raids
It’s that blizzard has made it very clear they don’t care and will allow bots so we just have go move on.
Indeed in tbc vanilla flasks get nerfed hard and even in wrath flasks are not as good as their vanilla counter parts
you couldnt do a hard raid thats why you are still on classic era, im here for tbc again and retail for hard raids, id be all for harder raids this 1 year cycle is a snooze fest and im just passing the time. its fun to flask without swiping. buying gold in this game for consumes is sad and blizz allows it so the bots will continue and the swipers will continue
yeah they are all full of it. i farmed lotus in 19 and i farmed it in era and i dont want to farm it on a megaserver full of bots and layers, it was fun competing for them in 19 vs real people and pvping over lotus spawns every 45 min to an hr, now its just bot city and vennies that even if you win against you get mass reported into a ban, no thanks

There’s definitely ‘mafias’ on MMOs. It’s important they keep their profits profitable.
There’s even a reddit thread or two about a discord in the EU that posts screenshots of people selling cheaper boosts then mass report them into a silence.

It wouldnt be off chance if it was the absolute you claim
But you unsubbed anyways,your word is worthless now.
Youll be back for the next fresh in a year, only to dissappear after 3 months again
You’re missing the biggest difference which is so laughable lol.
Blue Sapphires can be farmed infinitely in DME due to the RTVs down there.
Black lotus doesn’t spawn anywhere in a dungeon.
Not at all the same comparison… not shocking Eyr liked your post since they have absolutely no clue how the game works or it’s mechanics.

You don’t deserve to talk about anniversary since you apparently aren’t even playing.
It’s about time you hop on another forum alt again
Yet theyre more expensive than lotus, but more freely farmed. supply and demand for sapphires but not lotus?
and theres 8 layers, making it impossible to control. You cant mafia that many layers.i dont think you understsand just how much 24/7man power you need for that. As someone who mafiad 2 to 3 layers on leather, we were stretched even with 100 people for that. 8 layers? we would have needed 800+ players
You dont seem to either, to be honest. i have friends farming lotus with full pvp control 2/3rds of the day on 2 layers. This means the mafia is broken and cant exist.
