The Paid Boost is NOT pay to win, thats not how Pay to Win works. At the most its pay to save time.
Pay to win is something usually bought at a game store in a game that gives the player some sort of power advantage that CANT be gotten through playing the game normally.
FOR INSTANCE: The best dagger in Classic for dagger rogues in off of KT, its Kingsfall which has the following stats:
Kingsfall
Binds when picked up
Unique
One-hand Dagger
105 - 158 Damage Speed 1.80
(73.1 damage per second)
+16 Agility
Durability 75 / 75
Requires Level 60
Equip: Improves your chance to get a critical strike by 1%.
Equip: Improves your chance to hit by 1%.
Now thats the BEST dagger in the game.
Now Pay To Win would be if blizzard sold a dagger in the in game store that was something like this:
The Little OFC
Binds when Picked up
One-Hand Dagger
+22 Agility
+17 Stamina
118-179 Damage 1.8 speed
Improves chance to get a crit by 2%
Improves chance to hit by 2%
Do you notice that the dagger in this scenario from the store that can ONLY BE BOUGHT WITH MONEY is MUCH better than Kingsfall which is the THE BEST DAGGER in the game you can get from raiding?
Thats EXACTLY what PAY TO WIN is, its BUYING an item or advantage that cant be attained in game, so anything you can raid or pvp for is inferior to anything from the store.
The boost the are selling is NOT pay to win as you reaching level 58 can infact be done without buying it. It is NOT PAY TO WIN.
Also the direct meaning of pay to win off of google as a source"
PTW is used in gaming with the meaning “Pay to Win” to refer to games that allow players to purchase items or abilities (e.g., more powerful weapons, additional health points) that give them an advantage in the game, either over other players or NPCs (Non-Player Characters).
