Cost of Warband bank is ludicrous!

Back when guild banks were released, the last few bank tabs were incredibly expensive and often only acquired if a guild had many people contributing to the fund. The prices just haven’t gone up over many expansions, so now it’s low compared the amount of gold we make due to inflation.

This was clearly designed as another gold sink for convenience, and the prices aren’t that bad if you compared guild bank costs to the TBC economy. Remember how much 5k gold was and how many players complained about the cost of epic flying and never got it? Now drop 20k for a single bank tab.

Then it inherently fails in its entire point. It should not be a gold sink at this time if their intended goals are what they claimed they were. This doesn’t contradict my claim it makes it very clear.

This removes its QoL improvement and makes its use more or less useless for the average player for its intended goal.

This only makes it clearer that they messed this up horribly and doesn’t answer the questions of how this would be useful in the future when it can’t answer any of our current problems with storage as it is now.

It was staged as QoL and to make it less needed to do the whole Guild Bank storage most people end up using as well as allowing us to easily share resource between our toons as well as give us gear for our alts for our time on our mains.

The only part of its stated goals that it does well enough, and I think that could have been entirely circumvented by just making all our gold shared between toons baseline rather than needing to be passed, is giving us an easy way to share our gold regardless of servers.

It does none of those things well or easily or for the future of the game.

I could never see myself making such a large investment.

LOL I never thought I’d pay 5 Million gold for a mount but sure came BfA and that AH Long Boi mount…day 1 I walked into main city and brought it right away…never say never…LMAO

So glad I didn’t back then. The release of the Gilded Brutosaur would have actually made me mad with how Blizzard advertised that older Brutosaur and how it would vanish. To only release this one which is an upgrade IMO. Yes, I did get this one, but I just used my bnet balance and a few holiday gift cards to purchase it. No real grind or real money from my pocket was required.

Tab 5	2,500,000
Total	3,126,000

Yeah I think maybe at best I’ll just settle for 5 tabs lol.
