not anymore , man. since blizzard linked all their games under battle.net you cant sell your wow account anymore without selling all the games you own on battle .net. not even mention the fact that this is a bannable offense

€50 for a boost and 30 days is an absolute rip off XD

I’d just go with the €30 one for the mount and pet, that’s the typical mount and pet cost.

but why is it 60 euro??? can you tell me? does blizzard have an employee behind a keyboard manually boosting all the players that pay for it?
since they made it an automatic process, this service cost them literally nothing

I used to as well but unfortunately I can’t really do much with my hands now, thankfully using a keyboard is still possible! I suppose because the fingers are mostly stretched out.

I am happy they kept the cosmetics in the cheaper option this time arround, unlike wotlk where you had to buy the 80eur pack for the mounts, i skipped that one.
I can live without the level boost.

yes and they can sell it to 100 euros if they want to .

I would not pre order unless its on steam since its 100% likely that wow will be on steam, if transfer is not free it wont matter anyway if you gonna buy next expansion anyway so better wait for steam.

I personally 99% likely wont be playing unless they compensate me for all the issues if had past 1 year especially regarding freezes that exclusively happen in wow

29.99 for all the goodies

79.99 for all the goodies + 30 day + max lvl boost.
So for 30 days > 10 bucks + 40 bucks > for one boost to 80.
You be crazy if you pay 40 for a boost, it will take you 6-12 hours to level to 80 after cataclysm releases and the gametime is free so you just pay 50 just like the store price is. Blizzard is way out of touch because if they would have sold the goodies + gametime for 29.99 most of the poeple I know would have bought it, supporting the game you spend so much time on. But right now they ask 50 bucks for support and everyone be like, hell no.

because somewhere in senior management decided that its correct price for boost as product/service they offer.

tbh that boost is much more valuable then 60 euro boost in retail because its curring over 100 + hours of gameplay needed to level up

im personaly delighted about it - boosted my hunter and its already 4300 gearscore after 3 days and i just started to push beta dungeons :stuck_out_tongue: gamma im coming soon (tm ) when i collect a bit more 225/232/245 gear :stuck_out_tongue: and then when i get bored with S3 (which will be soon as they announced S4 so i cba to gear up besides getting few KSMs on my tanks / hunter i will very likely start ICC then :stuck_out_tongue: )

if blizzard decides to keep permanent wolk classic servers im more then likely to buy multiple boosts there in next couple of years. if they dont - well then i cba to buy any more boosts there simple.

its always all about how you value your time. for me personaly leveling in wolk is not experience worth the time so i didnt even level to max my dk which i started and got to 71 on launch .

with they intoduced those boosts earlier when i was on 3 months break in retail now :confused:

its always about how you percive value of things. nothign else.

im really curious where you came up with 6-12 hours there . if you written 60-120 then sure - shows you didnt play cata and even more then this in wolk

32

Powerleveling right now only takes 12 hours to get to 80

Soon we get more heirlooms so that time be cut in half

But since you 70, clearly you have no idea about other expansion level rate xD

34

“only 12 hours” xdd

35

Poeple like you are funny, why do you play a game if you take hours spent so sirious?

If you play 3 hours a day you got it in 4 days.
If you play like you, you got it in 1 day

Now don’t expect to earn the same money with playing a video game as working a full time job, games are a hobby and a job is work.

36

good for you . i doubt i could even level 70-80 in 12 hours thats why i dropped leveling my dk :slight_smile:

just like most of normal people :slight_smile:

funny that you mentioned looms- this shows how extensively you played wolk if you have all of them - i have 0 since this hunter is my first max level in wolk :slight_smile:

have a blast with my boosted hunter. most likely will boost warlock next when i will be done with S3 of DF :slight_smile:

I think it’s a mix between what you enjoy doing. I personally love leveling, but if you don’t enjoy it, then 12 hours are way too long.

39

That is exactly hes point and mine to, you can’t compare playing a video game for so called fun the same as working a full time job

But this what you do enables them to put crazy prices on something that would never be worth the vallue.

i personly suck with leveling in wolk and in classic - its to slow and way to boring for me - on the other had i can make this amount in 1-2 hours of work - i just stay an hour longer in work click keyboard few times and watch netflix in background (yay home office )

guess im primary target audience of such boosts

im ok with that

i have been saying for long time that i wish such boosts were aviable in classic/tbc - then i would play them :slight_smile:

You got them, mage boosts


You know the effect sharks have on games, right?

Boosts shouldn’t be allowed in any cases, you only get retail players with that, single players playing a single player game in a multiplayer world.

But ye you do you, I just leave soon.

42

the only effect it does have on me (and on many people like me ) is that i started to actually play wolk classic.

without it i wouldnt be playing it at all besides few hours after launch .

had they such boosts in classic / tbc i would play them also much longer then few days after launch . and so would a literal ton of people

dungeons are now litteraly filled with boosted chars there.

so yes there is a huge crowd more then willing to pay for boosts.
