Blizzard need to reduce the gold cap by ALOT

mats for example.
some players can decide if a certain material will be worth 1 copper or 1k gold.

You just want more with less work while taking away from people who actually took the effort to make gold. Thinking about flagging this for trolling at this point

Competition doesn’t matter for those who are not extremely into farming.

Whether you sell that 40 herbs for 8 gold or 11 gold each won’t affect you at that level.

if you call trolling to anyone who does not agree with you, you are the troll.

and many of them (not all) did not work for it. they multiboxed for it.

No…

Tokens are sold to players with pre existing gold. So demonstratively it’s more then possible for players to make that gold themselves and as you put it ‘compete’.

In ArcheAge resource sinks scaled with your property. The richer you were, the more resources and time you had to sink into your property. The system was set up in such a way that players had to determine how much wealth they wanted to pursue, relative to what it would cost to maintain it.

In Vanilla, once you got your epic gear, gold for repairs was an actual problem. I remember keeping a set of blue gear for world content and sometimes pvp, because I wanted to save gold.

Of course, to make a good gold sink the game needs actual systems. For example, in ArcheAge the main resource sink was real space housing. There were finite plots, players had to compete for houses, but… every player needed access to houses to be viable at endgame. But there wasn’t enough plots.

Players were encouraged to get as much property as possible, and then charge those who can’t afford it. An entry fee to enter my house and use my crafting benches.

I think a real space housing system, with taxes and everything is exactly what WoW needs. It will syphon wealth out of the rich, while the casual players will have to be content with their one house.

Do you know how hard it is to flip a market? Because it is not that easy…

You cannot just buy every single Zin’athid and post it 1k each, because that will create a massive hole in the market and the rest of the sellers quickly fill it out. If you just keep buying and reposting at 1k people will keep filling the hole and you will be bankrupt in an hour.

The richest people in the game don’t even multibox at all, please do some research instead of spreading false information. The richest person in the game who has over a billion g doesn’t touch seperate accounts at all.

You are baiting

How do you know who is the richest in the game? Genuine question.

Because I see tons of youtubers with billions who have 8 accounts and multibox…

How does one “compete” in an economy if all you need gold for is materials?

If you cant afford the prices your server offers, you need more gold and need to work for said gold.
To be able to afford it.

Removing gold or changing gold caps wont change a damn thing.
You cant spend what you dont have.

And if you want to “compete” now with actual players who “own” the AH or know how to play the AH, you need a huge understanding of the market and how to manipulate it.

So what are you trying to say with this post?

being in discords with people who love gold making, TSM (tradeskillmaster) discord for example. Most very rich people in the game don’t multibox.

im not sure what baiting is, but its really naive to think that only few people got capped with several characters dont use ‘other’ methods.

The majority of players do not even hit gold cap on one character.

the majority of the players dont do mythic raiding.
whats your point ?

U are literally assuming stuff saying “its really naive to think…”

Source of this thread: just trust me dude

That it’s pretty pointless to care about the very few super rich wow players.

not when they actually have a bad effect on the rest.

I still have not seen any sensible example how they do that.

I am not affected by a player who has lots of gold.

Not to mention the fact that reducing the amount of gold an account can hold doesn’t stop those players being rich, They’re just as rich as before…
