I am going to tell you all how to do end game the poor man’s way. Forget the delves. You can repost as much as you like or make a guide if you wish.

Step one, lvl a few characters to 80. Should take a few hrs each.

Step two, get minimum gear to go to LFR, again a few hrs.

Step 3, train jewelcrafting and enchanting. 2 mins.

Step 4, go to queen and get loot.

The goal is to get the crafting recipes. Sell them on the auction house for gold. Use the gold to buy whatever end game run you wish. Welcome to pay to win.

pay to win would be skipping steps 1-4. boost your toons in the shop, buy gold with the token, then pay for a carry with gold. thats p2w. what you described is actually considered legit.

Sounds like you did a lot of playing to get that “win” though.

And I must have missed the step where you paid anything besides a subscription.

Nah OP, you’re doing it wrong.

Buy 5 wow Token
buy a 70 boost
buy a 70-80 carry
buy a heroic raid and mythic raid carry
buy a mythic plus carry
buy a delve carry
buy a pvp carry to 2400 (just need this once)
wait for reset
buy a wow token
buy a heroic raid and mythic raid carry
buy a mythic plus carry
buy a delve carry

By now you should be 625 ilvl.

They had too much playing in their plan. the goal is to be AFK 99% of the time.

Thats not even p2w, thats pay to skip.

P2w would be BUYING the gear directly from the blizz store. Buying buffs you couldn’t obtain ingame. Like imagine buying a pet that applied any missing raid buff.

Just buying gold and buying carries… meh.

That is pay to win. Spend real life money for the ultimate goal to get the best gear in the game.

I’ll never understand people that choose to die on this hill.
So if I bought a currency called Goblin Bucks, and in-game Goblin Bucks converted to 620 ilvl gear or PVP rating, that suddenly isn’t pay to win?

Well, aside from the math not adding up, if you wanted to be 625 ilvl, you’d be looking at having to buy roughy 30 M+ carries and one token will get you… one. And legit sources aren’t selling CE yet and by the time they are, you’d be looking at 10+ tokens for one Mythic clear.

So the math of paying to 525 ilvl (not even max) and one Mythic raid clear would be around a minimum of 40 tokens, getting loot funneled to you or the Mythic raid mount guaranteed would be extra.

So if you want to spend 800 bucks for something can earn for free, who’s really winning?

It’s going to be several weeks before anyone can buy Mythic raid carries.

Sure takes a while to P2W.

Hi , Enchanter here.

I’m not paying 400k for an enchant recipe.

I won’t pay 250k either

(both current AH post prices)

The chants they make require profaned tinderboxes so are expensive to make anyway.

The weapon enchant I’m currently using sims for about 1-3% difference and costs only around 1200-1500g to make at rank 3.

I’ll keep using Stonebound artistry until raiders come to their senses with pricing.

Also, Champ track gear BOE’s from raids are not worth 200k-1M gold either just cuz they dropped in a raid. No0t buying any of those. I can get my own Champ track stuffs from delves :slight_smile:

All right Goblin, out of the wolf’s clothing. I can see that you are also trying to play Alliance’s AH too for a buck. Nice try , but your jig is up.
