If your guild is running GDKPs as a main raid, then not sure what to say other then probably look for a better guild, and one thats more progression focused where you can be more of a core raider. Few if any real progression guilds will run GDKPs outside of Alt raids, as their main focus is to gear out their own raid team. While they eventually might run some GDKP raids, those raids would generally focus on alt raids typically in outdated content.
What makes GDKP raids effective is where you have at least 50-60% of the raid that can carry people, its also why they tend to be prevalent in outdated content, but relatively uncommon in progression, these early raids will be a mix, even if you do do a GDKP the only items that even might have value would be the epic ones, there just isnât that many spots in a 10m so most classes will have few if anyone bidding against them, and on the off chance you joined a raid that did have people competing, take the gold.
Also while you want to paint everyone who joins a GDKP as a gold buyer, the fact is itâs very easy to make gold in wow, especially in SOD where a lot of people are doing all their quests for extra gold, and who I suspect might find the lack of quests at 26 challenging. Honestly, of all the raids I have seen posted for BFD, practically none are GDKP.
Right âŚso you maybe get a handful of greens solo farming for 6+ hours (most of which will not sell for more than 50s) and likely donât see a blue until you reach 20+ hours.
Most greens also donât sell on first list. So factor in the cost of relisting items as well.
Youâre talking an almost negligible amount of gold.

No screenshots, no proof, no disclaimer that as a member of a GDKP, OP got a cut of the $$$
what excuse? who cares? someone buying the staff for 800 effects you in no way, shape, or form.
Gonna go ahead and say that isnât going to sell (< 5% chance). And if it does, the buyer should be reported immediately
Heres on the other server im on.
Itz ALl TEh GdKPs FAult
it does not matter to me how effective self-centered players think gdkp raids are, because I am not playing solely for the purpose of gearing up a character, but to enjoy the raid with other players that I am friends with or want to get to know.
Thats what we do in gdkps too.
We are a solid community.
so solid that you donât care if people bot or rmt as long as you get your cut, I get it

I find doing summons to be a lot of fun. I hangout with my friends in discord and get drunk goofing around and I meet a ton of really interesting people. Plus I charge a good bit less than the norm so everywhere I go people are super talkative with me and often go out of their way to help me with things if I need.
It can be a little tedious if you donât find a way to enjoy the time doing it or if you are only focused on making gold.
But I do get why for some it would be a bleak way to play the game. Itâs just not for me. It honestly was the best thing that I have done in game to make friends and meet people.
Having said that, I donât think for a second that anyone who put in the time and effort to make that much gold would blow that much on a staff at level 25.
What you mean all the gdkps i do are on discords in a community.
You have 0 idea what youre talking about.
If i wanted to look at RMT id just go to the AH.
your âcommunityâ just above said that they donât care if people buy gold
I know exactly what Iâm talking about because thatâs a typical person defending gdkp

Yeah i get where they are coming from, it isnt my job to police the game.
Should i report everyone selling these rings?
They are going to get RMT gold when they sell.
Isnt that the anti gdkp logic?
if you agree with them then donât tell me I donât know what Iâm talking about when itâs clear that my statement above was correct
I agree its not their job to police the game.
Love how you put words in my mouth and then dodged everything else that was said.
That + failing to change your approach when people present counters = Your entire existence on this forum
itâs not putting words into your mouth, itâs exactly what I stated, your âcommunityâ doesnât care if people buy gold, for whatever reason whether they think itâs a good thing or it doesnât affect them or itâs ânot their jobâ(which btw is false most bot bans come from player reports right now)

Show me your mailbox full of actioned player reports.
My âcommunityâ is a lot of people.
I hope you arent a hypocrite and feel the same way about the AH.
grand exchange was a horrible addition to runescape, i could live without the ah with no trouble at all
