Maybe bc were in a transition between management or cause player base is dying??? idk but i couldnt buy a token for the past 24 hours as there are none on the AH, and now im down 3 raid characters for FL. RIP game. greed ftw? Have one other active account but will not be subbing multiple via usd.
I solved gold issue by service sale. I gave up the dream of full production alliance and horde. 3 transfers and faction changes And now alliance is richer for it lol.
And if I need moar gold its swap out 85’s all night long for dailies, all profits to the same bank alt.
Still have a grobb horde char, but they exist to see its pvp sometimes lol. Honor vendor gear is all they need. they can be poor.
Dude, OP is talking about buying tokens for GAME TIME, not to sell for gold. Yikes.
If players don’t need tokens for gold to sell on AH, people who buy them for sub time have no tokens.
Since it seems blizzard does not inject them into system. or do it very sparingly. Since op says the market is dry.
DOuble edged sword if the token market isnt manipulated. that means the players buying gold from them quit and us players that refuse to buy subs/gold are now subjected to becoming the buyers or quitting.
There are Tokens on AH currently, not sure why its not working for you.
True. But there is the 3rd option of people who jsut buy the say 6 months block anyway, make gold in game and just play. time will tell who was the bigger of these populations I guess.
Playing armchair analyst…at this point the game is not dangling bait to need money. I won’t say cata is dying, but its clear its not a packed house.
My guess is less players are rushing to ah to get the BOE’s for raid. Or had the gold on the bank alt already. we had a long phase to grind up gold the old fashioned ways.
Ahh i see your on frostmourne maybe its just whitemane edit - they gave me acct time to buy a token on the ah their back it was just a temp thing i guess.
It’s because I’m not playing Cata and selling gold to you whales like I was in Wrath.
Just waiting for them to introduce the token in vanilla era so I can legit sell you whales gold again.
No way you all that poor you can’t afford $15 a month
Wow… that’s a classy move, belittling people based on their finances. Good job.
they did have that patch/dt last iirc.
I can’t ding blizzard there too much. I do work in IT. I’ve had servers in clusters made the same way. all are the same since a cluster. Name and IP, the only difference.
4/5 of them patch fine. Same patch load. And the 5th one goes…bet you were expecting an easy day. Guess again…
All the more reason to add it and spite you.
No sweat off my nethers. Keep farming gold and dailies just so you can play each month lol
If a whale wants to pay for my sub, then I gleefully will.
I…
Have no problem playing the game legit and earning gold through hard work.
The whale does, and I’ll gladly exchange with them and let them compensate for their lazy way of gaming.
I’m on Arugal Cataclysm, and it was working, not sure what happened with you
Tokens are server specific? Can’t be because my dead server has token in AH and a checked a high pop server and there’s tokens there, same price.
As for 'why buy tokens instead of pay $15/mo?" I bought 3 tokens yesterday because gold has no other use on a dead server, already have everyone with fast flying. Four toons doing 22-25 dailies/day (FM, TH, Uldum) adds up.
Also, inflation. Back on retail, if I bought tokens in WoD when I made over 2m gold running garrison gold missions on all my alts before they patched it. Had I bought wow tokens I could have got them 30k-33k each. Right now a retail wow token is 271k each. Right now just going off 1.5m, that gets me 5.5 tokens instead of what could have been 50 tokens.
Just game version and region.
Selling gold? My brother you couldn’t even buy 2’s carries lmao
Why would I want to?
