Why is gold abysmal this xpac

We get 1k gold from big old adventure sacks or whatever tho at least. Time to buy gold I guess :frowning: Swipe the ol’ credit card and play the ol’ swipearoo game.

I’ve only been getting like 170 g from them

Delv gold sucks , you have a room full of gold and you get 5 gold pitas Da hell

The thing about token gold is that it comes from players. That’s why I am thinking blizz made a mistake, or there are raw gold sources we have not found, or this is meant to be a deflationary expack, with less raw gold generated to pull gold out of players hands.

I’ve noticed there’s also no arena quest line that opens a WQ to kill an elite like the last few expacs. I had like 10 alts parked in the plains in DF to do it weekly when it was a 1.7k g reward. Really easy income

Gold is hard to get because of a simple philosophy.

How to sell pay for convenience the easiest? Make things as inconvenient as possible. In short, gold is harder to get because they want to sell more WoW tokens.

You forget that there is an economy and you can SELL stuff rather than buy.

It still means someone somewhere needs that gold. In the end it drives up WoW token sells even if it doesn’t get you personally to buy more.

Tokens have dropped sharply in price, the gold is mostly not created but changes hands, the market is dictated by the players, not by devs, you can farm yourself. Blizzard isn’t blameless but pinning it all on them as it was just a huge conspiracy is disingeneous, and denotes that we can’t do anything about it, which is patently wrong.

yea someone pays for token with real money because they don’t want to farm.

Doesn’t mean they can’t farm.

It’s like arguing that the leveling process exists to sell character boosts.

Sure you can do something about it, but it’s a lot less convenient as noted before. Thats why its called a pay for convenience item. If people are making less gold then only one of two possibilities are going to happen here. The cost of things are going to greatly reduce, or people are going to buy more tokens to help them pay for the expenses that are not dropping. But if you wish to believe this isn’t a design choice to make it so tokens sell more. Then what purpose do you think there is in having gold earned in the world at a lesser amount then before?

he’s made 5 million profit.
his gross income has been significantly above that.

skill issue I guess.

Those greens take 100’s of artisans acuity he’s lying to you.

People are making more gold, that’s why things cost more.

Wow tokens. Just take a look at the price of them. Ppl are buying them up like crazy. One token is more than a monthly sub and they are half the price they were a month ago. The amount of gold sinks in the game that blizz put in place is huge compared to what it use to be. I guarantee you they are making more from tokens than subs or it’s really really close. Every time you buy a token you just paid someone’s sub. Most ppl do not buy just one.

They do not.

No your misunderstanding or intentionally misrepresenting what I am saying. Your statement would be true if you had instead said. It’s like arguing that the leveling process is made more difficult in order to sell character boosts.

The reason why gold from playing content, rather than playing the market, is so scarce can be revealed by pressing “esc”, then “Store”, and then “WoW token”. Simple as that.

Post the item link. I’ll prove it.

Edit: I was wrong. It was my purple engineering tools that I can make, my tailor can make green profession gear.
