Guys, let’s raise the issue of reworking the Trading Post token system
Blizzard is creating an artificial shortage of tokens. Every month new items are added to the Trading Post, and even if you’re selective with your purchases, there’s never enough tokens. The prices are unreasonably high compared to the amount of tokens we can earn
Soon, a huge new content feature is coming – Player Housing – and the Trading Post will likely offer tons of house items. That will require even more tokens. The situation is snowballing and needs to be addressed
Here are a few suggestions:
1. Increase the monthly token cap to 2000
2. Cut item prices in half
3. Add bonus quests, events, or activities that reward tokens
And option 4 – probably not popular, but a last resort – allow tokens to be purchased for real money in the shop
This is a battle we can never win because they are full on FOMO devs now. The Early Access and 90$ mount and the Legion Remix decisions have sealed it, they are 100% FOMO.
My pet peeve is that i keep getting the notices that i completed a traders tender quest even after i got the max amount for the month.
What I would like is Either stop sending these notices or reward some tenders for completing these extra objectives.
It could be at a discounted rate, maybe 50% of original payout, but if i do the work maybe give some reward?
Im not a fan of the rising inflation prices or the constant seasonal themes. Was hoping we would get more old/remade stuff like the Scarlet sets they made. Plenty of Vanilla and TBC sets that they can remake and throw on the TP.
There are only “not enough tokens” if you want to buy everything. That’s why people answered you the way they did.
There are more than enough tokens to buy 1 big piece and maybe a couple of smaller pieces every month. That’s why people say “never meant to buy everything”
We dont know how large the expenses will be, remember there are tons of transmog items for like 50 tokens every month.
Sure there may be a giant statue of Xalataths feet for 750, but you can just skip a month to save.
1500, the monthly alotment, is enough for a mount + transmog set and some miscellaneous items. It will still be enough when its house item+mount or what ever combination.
Why would you even want to buy everything. Most of the time the stuff really isn’t that great. Like I mostly skip the ground mounts. I mean…they’re ground mounts. I literally won’t ever use them even if I did like them. What’s the point in spending tokens on those.
