I’ve noticed since they added the dubloon vendor it’s as if the bonus from my mission table quit working and I rarely get more than 2 or 3 coin sacks, whereas before i would get dubloon sacks with sometimes 8 to 10 coins.
Why does this game company pretend to fix something then nerf another part of it so that there is no real fix just the pretense of a fix?
I farmed over 100 yesterday and got 26 in one pouch. I was wondering if they had been buffed. RNG
wow. I must have a bugged character then because i have done IE alot and have never seen more than 12 coins in a bag i also have the bonus that is supposed to give it a chance at more coins.
It isn’t rng when it’s consistent. I just wish the fools at blizzard would tell us the rules of the game so we know what to expect. As it is how fun would chess be if the rules changed every week and you couldn’t know what the rules are until you started playing.
It’s no wonder the stock value for this company is tanking.
That’s some luck if you got that many, lol. And 26 from one? Shenanigans.
To me, it feels like the rate has been lowered a bit. Ran a lot on this girl earlier in the week, only got 2 dubloon pouches. My priest’s 4 heroic runs, got none. My hunter’s 5 runs, got one. My DK, got two.
Whereas prior, it seemed like you almost always got a dubloon bag. Though I also tend to be unlucky. My hunter’s treasure map did give a mission that had the Vor…something Leacher pet, which was one of the couple she still needed. That probably used all my luck for the next month or two to be honest.
My friend and I have noticed a nerf in the coins. Before the vendor, we would get coins on almost every run. Now it seems like we get them 30% of the time, and most often it is a sack of 2.
It’s pure nonsense to create a game that has hidden rules. They tried to spin it as if it were part of the fun but the truth is they are just too lazy to do the kind of detail work that previous teams did.
It’s like they want to get paid but don’t want to do the work.
I did my four heroic IE’s this week, and got doubloons in two of them, 4 and 8, for a total of twelve. I think it barely put me over a total of 200 that I have on my main. At that rate, I’ll never get all the stuff off of the doubloon vendor.
I did, however, get a pet in my third run, and it was one I didn’t already have. So I think that puts me at 5 pet drops, with 4 being unique. Still no mounts though, and so far only 1 toy.
/moo ![:cow:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/cow.png?v=6" ":cow:")
Yes, stealth nerfed big time.
Yeah i thought myself that it seemed funky…i don’t remember them dropping as much as they used to but just might be rng…i run my 110 dh and a spare alt on my 2nd account (another chance at mounts) and run it but at this rate it’s gonna take me maybe another 400-500+ runs to get enough dubloons to get both mounts ![:frowning:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/frowning.png?v=6" ":frowning:")
Seems so. It’s mostly worth doing the first one each then rewards seem to taper off after that.
Pure unadulterated balderdash. This same attitude seems to have infected every section of wow and has infected their other ip’s as well. It’s as if they don’t want our money anymore.
I haven’t noticed any difference.
DEFIANTLY lower. I just need 25 to get the seagull, and I have gotten 0 dubloons in 3 runs. Also I have the find the bonus ones on the ground, which out of maybe 50 runs has netted me 3 dubloons, and that’s in just one run, so 49 runs there was no point to the bonus dubloon perk. NErfing the drop rate somewhat I could see. But cutting it back THIS much is just insaine. Even after I get my first mount, I need another 1850 to get the rest of the dubloon loot I want. At this current drop rate it’s not going to happen.
26 in one? Calling total BS on that.
Can confirm they nerfed them.
On this toon I rarely get any dubloons. But on my ally alt I get 3 to 10 dubloons per IE runs. Fun right…
I mean so they want to make it take more time, I don’t like it but I can see why they would.
What I I find about this sort of change annoying to the point of just saying screwthis is when they make one change to make it appear as if they are changing things for the better but in reality they hide the fact that it was nerfed.
We deserve better treatment than what we have been getting from this company. The end result is the loss of hundreds of millions in annual revenue and the stock losing almost 1/2 it’s value.
After all the times they have treated us like this you’d think that blizz would have learned it is better to be transparent rather than let us be frustrated and feel cheated and lied to.

Making a reddit post was easier than trying to get an image on the wow forums. But, there’s a screenshot in that link.
Also… there is a research you can do near your mission table for extra dubloons. That helped a lot.
EDIT: They removed the screenshot. It happened, not too concerned about whether people believe it or not. Happy dubloon farming!
Kind of a mean move to put a vendor with things I want and punish us who try to farm the Expos for the cool stuff, TMOG collectors and myself want those tricorne hats.
I’ve been trying to farm Dubloons since I saw the tricorne hats released for 8.1…
All through the interviews, BlizzCon, and even many forum posts and news, Blizzard made the implication that every time you did an IE you’d get a number of Dubloons based on the difficulty of the Island.
I gotten 13 in one bag, and that was before both the Ship Upgrade for more Dubloons and 8.1
Seriously they did NOT say anything about it not dropping. A lot of the people on here keep saying they’re getting good numbers of dubloons, but every time I tried to do a Heroic pug for IE we keep losing. (I do normals, is that why they’re not dropping?)
Instead of starting a new thread I thought I’d like to vent my spleen over the missions the weekly drops.
Week 1 I get 20ish residuum. I’m excited and think this is going to be a nice weekly reward. Every week since it’s been a piece of transmog gear.
You might want to counter with confirmation bias but it appears they have also decided to nerf the weekly mission. I mean for gawds sake why does this company seem hellbent on bait and switch routines as a system to retain subs? Isn’t it already obvious what blizz thinks will manipulate folks to stay subbed is in fact what is ruining their game and company?!
