I am of the opinion that all currencies for legacy content should be removed and replaced with gold. It doesn’t matter if someone can skip all the Anima and War Resources and etc grinds; it’s legacy content. This would also increase the value of gold.

You were meant to be against the currencies! Not make more of them!

Yes but that would also mean more stuff not everyone can get cause not everyone has millions to spare
I like the legacy currency idea but crests as they are serve two very important functions.
1: It ties upgrades to content difficulty as puny said.
2: It disincentivises holding onto crests to wait for higher ilvl items. You can upgrade your current gear with carved or runed whilst acquiring gilded and not waste those carved or runed crests. Meanwhile if you had one currency, spending it on anything but high / near max ilvl items would feel like a waste of that you’re being set back.
They want you in game, farming. Reduce the currencies and that means reduced game time = bad for investors.
The thing is… I feel that if Blizzard had gone that way, season 1 for Delves would have never allowed us to go beyond the 4/8 Hero gear. But, albeit with a lot of work and patience (and it’s become even more viable since they removed the crest limits), you are able to.
Of course this will be different in season 2, period, because we’ll just be able to earn gilded crests much more reliably through delves.
Wow, apparently the currency subject has made news.

Not necessarily so.
If they made it less frustrating to play then players would play more.
When they made the 100 Exalted Reps achievement Account Wide I went and finished off loads of reps to get the achievement. I would not have started from over again with most of those reps.
It’s often a false economy to make grinds longer to get players to play longer. As they’ll often just give up instead.
Same with Alts when Alts are made easier it means players play more as they don’t have to farm a grind on their alt so they play more other things instead of just not playing an alt at all.

Lil bro are you having difficulties with basic reading and understanding? Trust me you’re the problem because I introduced a friend to the game when the expansion launched and he figured it out very after getting to 80.
What about trading up like you can do with crests. As someone that only raids Hero and avoids M+, upgrading the crests allows me to get transmogs I otherwise wouldn’t.
I also think there are to many curencies
For the moment would apreciate for warbands to not need to gather thrm again.
Ex my chest is 610 on maine, upgraded to 626, when i get a chest on alt , i should be able to upgrade a 610 to 626 free. This will make me want to play more alts or do more stuff with new found main
Legacy currencies need to be removed, there are far too many in each expansion. Either replace them with gold costs or have a universal ‘legacy’ currency.
Non Legacy can remain as it is.
Its unfair for new players or those wishing to experience older content to be met with unnecessary grind walls outside of when it is the meta.
