If the playerbase is able to annoy another player by spamming some visual or auditory effect, the playerbase WILL spam some visual or auditory effect.

Then I can see a 5 min cooldown or something. The current ones are excessively long and frustrating.

- The rarer the item is, the more prestige you get from actually having and using it.
- This item is fairly nice. 2-minute cooldown is much shorter than most other cosmetic items and the effect looks cool.
- Blizzard is probably looking for ways to remove excess gold from the economy. Gold sinks like this one and the 5 million gold brutosaur mount are a good solution.
I think it’s ok.

I suppose it depends on what it is. I do agree that far too many fun things do have more restrictive cooldowns much longer than necessary.

All of the items sold by the Mad Merchant are prestige and gold sink items.

It’s because people can’t control their urge to be little s**theads like children.
So you have to do callings every single day for 150 days straight, just to spend on one toy? That actually sounds like a lot to me.

All toys should have a cooldown based on MY preference only. Nobody else matters!
…and someone give me a snozzberry!

It is a lot. It’s also not required. It is your choice.
This sounds like a strawman,false equivalence, gaslighting, or something that everyone spouts. Someone help me out here.

Very true. Fortunately, I don’t want it and therefore have zero risk of dropping that much gold on it.

I mean they did say just from the callings. It doesn’t include everything else that can be done daily to get like 5 to 10k more gold. Hell, repeating Raid runs that you can solo and just selling the gear can do it for you.
Just selling the junk items dropped in Dragon Soul alone rakes me 500 gold per run, and that’s not even the highest level Raids that can be soloed now. Go all out daily and you could rake in close to 20k gold a day if you’re really devoted.

Strawman fallacy.

Thank you! I wanted to sufficiently lambaste Gnasha with the correct socially acceptable public shaming.
Gnasha… you are a Stawman’s fallacy!

The reasoning is a fallacy of relevance: it is an argument that deliberately misrepresents the opposing position out of spite against the proposition they stated…
In other words literally nobody said they have to do callings every single day for 150 days straight.
Samezies! Lol
If you want to limit yourself to doing them on just one character in a day, sure. Although it’s more like 125, assuming that you get NO paragon chests with additional gold and items, and get NO vendor-able or AH-able items while doing the quests, and also do NO quests that award gold, somehow, despite being at max level.
Then yes, it could take up to four months. Cut down to less than two if you’re doing it on two characters. Cut down to less than one if you do it on three. Cut down further by other gold rewards and items you get in the process.
I imagine if it’s something that someone wants really badly, bad enough that they’d come to the forums and claim it’s unfair, somehow, they could budget the 30 minutes or so to do three callings a day. I find it’s most efficient to do three on one character one day, three on a second character the next day, then three on a third, and by then the first character will have three callings again for the following day.
Good luck!
damn thats a lot of words.
