Nothing says "Casual Content" like 50K gold for a dragon saddle

are professions still crap to make money on?

Not talking about all world quests. Talking about the purse you get from finishing the dragon race ones. I believe there’s five or six up?

Then don’t buy it… I have over 10 mill gold and I’m not wasting 50k on a hard-to-see saddle for a mount I almost never use

50k gold is probably about a solid 24 hours of non-stop playing through dailies, playing on more than one character if you want to earn it right away.

Using the AH is not an option for most people, since all professions are a gold sink unless you got lucky early and became a billionaire with the recipes early on.

Considering this saddle cosmetic is celebrating this small micro-holiday and is likely going away afterwards, it’s pretty gross.

Hello, I see you replied to the thread. Probably because of an exploit that has been in the game since DFs launch and still isn’t fixed, haha! Bots out there farming millions of gold with a Chromie Time exploit!

Thanks for your post and have a great day!

I am pretty casual and think 50K is easy to get. Don’t even have to bother with the auction house or professions to do it. If I really wanted to, I could do make more 50K every week just on world quests. Dragonriding (14 quests a week) would make about 21,000 gold a week across three characters. That doesn’t count for any other world quests offering gold.

Bet you’d be dead wrong lol

There were swarms of people in Booty Bay when I went to buy mine.

You also can do anything in non-bis gear technically, but does it feel good? Do you struggle, can you pull a bunch of the mobs to make it go faster? Nope.

Anyways, 5 post alt. Gonna throw you all so I don’t gotta see posts since it’s possible you’re evading already.

I added those into account, between 520-580g or whatever it is they reward. I think I recall something like 528g but I added up to account for the possibility of it being 580 each. Still under 7k on top of all the other gold WQs. Which isn’t anything to scoff at, seems like a high amount of gold WQs up atm. Still takes quite a while to complete them all.

Should be 7 up each rotation. 4 in the original Dragonflight zones. 1 in Forgotten Reach. 2 in Zaralek Cavern. They rotate on Tuesday and Friday giving each character 14 races a week and about 500 gold per race.

These aren’t even the most profitable world quests. Other world quests in the dragon isles can give up to 1000 gold. But they aren’t guaranteed. Most give 500-600 gold each.

What else are the truly casual going to do? Sit in a city and wait for hours trying to get on a Mythic+ team because they don’t fit the meta?

No, 50k is hard for players who sit in Stormwind all day doing nothing but talking in trade chat. If you actually went out into the world and pressed buttons occasionally you’d realize this.

Go do the soup event on all your characters and pray for a flavor pocket. Easy 50k right there.

50k is casual. If you’re an elite, you’re broke cause you’re spending your time in progression. Why are you whining over this? You don’t need it for anything.

is the saddle temporary or permanent? i was hearing it was temporary? im not spending 50k unless its permanent

From who? Far as I can tell it’s permanent. It unlocked the saddle in my dragon customization screen.

Whatever other content they want to do? PvP, roleplay, chat in cities. If they made some of the main ways to communicate world-wide maybe people would do more content. Doesn’t help RP much though.

I’m buying it because yay collections and I’ll make that 50k again before the end of the week.

now i’m not saying your right or wrong , but the fact are that the whole token price thing and how they calculate it is all happening behind close door we dont have access to nor cant peek trought.

so realisticly for all we know the token price could be just as made up as santa and you wouldnt know because just like the subs count blizzard does not share those thing with the player base .anything related to how the token work without those data is nothing more than made up theory we think is happening until proven otherwise.

and i see some people coming saying ‘‘but blizzard said that’’ ,blizzard said alot of thing trought the year that were either never true or were scrap later down the line.remember them saying tender would never be on the real cash shop ? cause i sure do

Easy there mojumbo. I play 1-2 hours here and there throughout the week. With child, and job, and care giver for my father.

Still have plenty to buy this with. I won’t, because it’s hideous – but still. No tokens as well.

But yes, 50k is a little silly. Can’t be made in one day that easily, but can certainly be done by just auctioning basically everything you find. Ore doesn’t sell well anymore, but all the rousing elemental stuff goes fast and is easy to farm.
