You ever run M+? Buying a boost or two can get your gear ahead of others and that improves your M+ score faster/better (and thus is an advantage).
The advantage is there and just because you can earn it yourself =/= its not pay to win. Your still effectively cracking open your wallet for an advantage over other players.
But what advantage does that have over me playing with my friends and pushing higher than most boost groups sell early in the season?
People who boost mplus are obvious and dont get invited after.
Its not actually an advantage
implies that everyone who buys boosts is terrible at the game
it is when your trying to expedite the gearing process and are not willing to tap in game friends for carries shrug
Those are some good points
Most of them are, hence why they boost to begin with.
Expedite gearing to still be behind the people selling you the boost?
I’m not sure this is fully understood by the p2s crowd.
I mean most of the people complaining dont play anywhere near that level enough to understand it
your still ahead of others who were at your level before the purchase of said boost? the competition is varied and gaining the most advantage possible though?
Yes, your not ahead of everyone (shocking, I know) doesn’t mean your not now further ahead than other people.
Thats not how it works and its not an advantage. You dont compare against people who are fresh max level characters. You are compared to the people at max gear and you will never catch up to them.
Again the other guy that just hit 60 doesnt matter.
No, they are just there. Blizzard is the one who gains.
Yes it does. They give you the gold.
Then we would go back to illegal gold buying sites. Same thing.
Thats exactly what pay to win looks like
Lol what you mean your getting end game achievement, mounts, gear that is beating the game = winning … You say its not a race ? Why there a Mythic race every time new raid comes out ?
No. In order for you to get the gold from a token, it must be purchased by another player, who can then use it to pay their sub or redeem for $15 of bnet balance. This process does not change the total amount of gold in the region, only facilitates it’s movement from 1 player to another.
Selling a wow token is no more blizzard giving you gold than selling an item on the AH is.
Stamping your feet like a child isn’t going to make your argument stronger.
The players aren’t doing it for free. Everytime I did any kind of sale I profited from it.
Actually they don’t.
Players in game earn the gold and buy the tokens.
Boosting isn’t going anywhere.
The good from the token outweighs bad players getting mad over it.
Game isn’t pay to win.
I don’t need to make my argument stronger because you can’t refute it.
Someone with a worthless opinion can’t.
To be fair, Blizzard perma banned me on three separate accounts during vanilla and TBC for buying gold from Chinese gold* sellers back in the day.
People argue it’s P2W because it’s Blizzard selling the gold. Now that Blizzard sells me gold, I don’t have to worry about being perma banned anymore.
Well when you write all the rules, then no one can defeat the unstoppable troll.
You’d be the troll since you continue to do nothing but post worthless opinions.
I’ll just let the forums speak for themselves then.
Content in knowing that you’re wrong.
