The Wow Token

Michelanio · March 03, 2015, 03:22:28 PM

It seems like blizzard will in the fairly short time bring out a game time token that people can buy for money and then sell on AH for gold. I think itÂ´s a good idea that blizzard is bringing this out since there are those that got allot of gold but perhaps can't afford to buy game time and vice versa. I just hope that the prices don't get to far out of hand but apparently blizzard will control that in some way. Here is a link to some more info about it.

It's basically a copy paste from CCP's PLEX system. It's one of the things they did with EVE Online to get rid of gold spammers and bots.

I would not be the first time blizzard "borrowed" something from other games

Yeah, let's just hope it works. I don't like that they aren't subject to market change and can't be resold though.

As yet though we still don't have a guide on how much they will be ..... 10,000g not enough 100,000g maybe 500,000 too much

Just going long the lines of "if i farm gold for a month how much would i get ?" and is it possible to make enough gold to not pay a monthly sub ?

If they miss on the value on the high side, they rape the economy badly.

Seems like the token will come out here in the EU this week. According to Mmo-champion the initial gold price will be 35k and it will cost 20 Euro to buy from the store. Keep in mind that the current gold price in the US is around 22,5k

At 35k then I guess I can cancel my subscription.

I was expecting it to be a lot higher.

So was I tbh and that's not even a fixed price it can go lower as we saw it do in the US cause I think they started at 30k there

That is stupid low for â,¬20, but I guess they had to in order to keep balance in the in-game economy.
