Crafting is BROKEN

I rarely even ever see a multiboxer in the wild, outside Orgrimmar flexin their power maybe. What I see a lot of is blatant botting, you can always tell when you find a way to grab their aggro and they stand there still attacking all the grey mobs, and no matter what you do, their pattern does not change at all. If anyone drives prices down from mass farming, I’d have to lean towards the botters being the problem.

I saw some bots a few times now at the LFR NPC in mists…theyd run from him over to a vendor over and over…probably ten bots total. They were running solo but what gave them away is that instead of running directlyi to each NPC, theyd take this unnecessary “V” shaped path back…every…single…time…lol.
Watched for about 10 minutes the first time, then reported. After that I just report them when I see that “V” path between the NPCs.

Agree.
I think if boxing were the problem bliz would have banned it instead of just the keyclone software/apps and been done with it.

Do you know what my engineer is doing? I don’t have a fancy 5 mil mount, so she is running from the mailbox to the auctioneer is orbios…

…my JC/Ins benefits from cheap bot farmed ore and herbs. :man_shrugging:

Maybe if there wasn’t so many people crafting them they would be worth something.

right. So many times in BFA I’d go to a wq and what do I see, the entire area with the objective npc completely grey, and 27 druids all in one spot. Blizzard should do to botters what old consoles used to do if they detected you modded your system, brick it. Make it where their computer can never play WOW again. They’re cancer to the game. Sorry for being overly talkative, it’s how I deal with my anxiety, force myself to talk to people.

Deliberate. This is a form of taxation on the rich, doubling as a gold sink, tripling as a social security system on the poor, quadrupling as a check on legendary power imbalance

I usually remember them at the end of the expansion. Ever since they broke them in Warlords I just lost interest beyond making bags.

This is the first expansion I can remember where I crafted stuff in the first few days that gave me upgrades. That was a nice change even if the gear was replaced quickly.

Gnomish gravity well… gob glider, loot-arang, nitro boosts, mail box for my ah mount…

Engineering might not have gotten any new good stuff… probably because the devs are internally seething that they gave all my alts proto-flight…

bounces up into the sky and goblin glides off into the sunset

The investors say Great Success!

I don’t see the problem here… They weren’t going to let you gouge non crafting professions. The lower rank ones are going to be worth nothing because the lower rank ones are going to be heavily crafted by the hardcore… When blizzard starts allowing more then one piece of gear things will then get interesting the amount of people who are going to pool money to get the top pieces are going to probably be able to make money off them as them selling at a profit is still going to be a lot cheaper then leveling all the way up there yourself. and the profit you can make selling is a risk so a lot of people I imagine aren’t going to do it. but yeah there’s no profit in selling the lower rank gear right now. and no one has the ash to level up that high so it’ll take time for demand to rise.

Doesnt bother me, lol. Im as talkative as they come.
When we first met one of the first insults my soon to be wife said was “You talk a LOT” :laughing: :laughing:

I’m feeling bullish on these 190 items. Good time to load up on some call options. :wink:

yup.

With classic, people asked for the return of ‘meaningfull profession’… forgetting that meant only a small handfull of player who get pattern first / capitalize on them early make any profit.

first guy with lionheart helm became rich… the 3rd guy? not so much

I can talk for days on here, but put a real person in front of me, I won"t have any clue what to say. Something like WOW is great therapy.

I haven’t done any crafting yet. are you saying the mats that you HAVE to buy costs more than selling them or are you saying buying mats that you can farm cost more than the crafted item? If it is the latter then just farm it yourself? boom full profit.

Anyone that bought rank 4s is an idiot. Why spend gold on a R4 knowing you won’t be able to actually craft it into a legendary for weeks. You could just have waited until when you could make it, and by then the price would have dropped massively.
