Is TWW PVP item crafting with stat variety P2W?

I am frustrated since Blizzard added the token into the shop and I dislike that they keep making it easier to get items with better stats by using gold, instead of these items being available directly in the PVP vendors. I agree that it is a MMO and that you can farm but they should not give the easy way out if you swipe your card,

I agree with that.

Need Versatility/Mastery boots ? No worries with the right amount of gold you can have it

?

Rank on the pvp item doesn’t matter, it’ll be the level of the pvp token in pvp no matter what the rank of the item is. You can literally provide rank 1 mats for it and then just put it up for public crafting order, even with a low amount of gold as commission someone will craft it for weekly or for first craft eventually.

The PVP items with stat variety are locked by crafting/buying materials/farming things that can be fast paced with gold, I wasn’t talking about material ranks, the low ranks are just as expensive as the high ranks, but that is not the point. The point is that Blizzard management is intentionally making the players to spend gold to gain an advantage, via embellishment gear, enchantments, potions, stats locked by crafting, etc.

I’m a little shocked so many people in this thread don’t understand the very simple point you’re making.

Pay gold → Gain advantage in PvP.

That’s pay to win. Gold or Tokens, it’s still pay to win.

Saying it’s “small” buffs is not an acceptable argument, that’s still pay to win. And some of them (embellishments, for example) are significant.

Saying it’s not a lot of gold is subjective, and still doesn’t disprove your point.
