remove transmog costs and armor repair costs. just no point at this stage in the game. ++ to OP. if you want to stop gold getting too stupidly high where people can just buy everything straight away, stop putting items on a vendor. make people have to do something, even if its run an old raid or something. :\

and people claiming we need a gold sink… a) no, and b) hello warbank tab 5?

Your transmogrifier is ripping you off. Mogging isn’t that expensive.

PLaying for so many years never bothered …

I doubt he found it :smiley:

At a point I suggested that at the start of each month there should be a tax equal to the 0.1% of (total gold in possession + total vendor value of all items equipped, in bags, in banks, in AH and in mailbox) for every character in an account, as long as that character has logged in during the previous month (so that offline characters/players are not impacted).

It would be small per player but massive gold sink. If someone’s possessions and gold stash added to 50k gold for example, they’d pay 50 gold. That’s less than the vendor value of a 493ilvl item equipment. For a player with possessions amounting to 1 million gold, they’d pay 1000 gold, or around the income from 2 skyriding world quests. But for an AH goblin or hoarder with 50 million gold in possession/“assets”, the tax would be 50k gold! This would incentivize AH goblins to spend their gold instead of hoard it. And its effect on “poor” players would be smaller than on “rich” ones.

Thats not taxing the rich folk its mostly goes at the low gold goblins

People have millions and millions of gold they dont care but the small man does if he moggs and need too get 700 out of his pocket

Mogging is a magic prozess why can the proffesion enh or ingi make toghether a tool that make us using mogging for free

I agree with that.

I mog whenever I get a new piece of gear or asap. Don’t consider myself an rper even if I play on one

I think moging being free would benefit everyone. Can’t really see any downsides to this, unless you really want to pay for some reason.

LMAO No. It was more along the lines of I’m not going out with you looking like that!

Well downside would be inflation of gold so what you save on mogging you will pay double on ah for other stuff. You know like basic economics.

As someone who mogs like all the time, so much so if I’m not in combat I’m in the collections tab wondering what might fit, I gotta say:

“No, there is already enough gold distributed that mogging having the price it does is fine, go fly around and do some world quests and get up to 3k depending on the day. The game is allowed to have some things that make you manage your resources, not everything needs to be affected by, oh no the player needs to play the game mentality”

Also

This thought process only works in the real world as irl everry person makes different amount of money in any given time period, which is why the disparity needs to be taken account for.

However, in a game where every given player has the same rewards given to them for the same effort output, the only difference between a rich player and a poor player is choice on what activities you do. And yes some rich player use/have used exploits to get their wealth or paid for it, that is not the status quo and therefore mostly, not completely just mostly, irrelevant when it comes to balancing the game.

But as it stands every player has easy acces to enough gold to make the function of transmogging atleast, irrelevant, easiest example would be the world quests that reward anywhere between 1.5k and 4k depending on the uptime of the quests in the time span of about 15min for fast classes or quests and 30mins on slower ones, this is per character btw.

So the excuse of earning class is rather not valid in this case.

Tmoging price is fine

Players who are complaining should get job in game or farming gold.

Or simply find 1-2 tmog max

thank god its not as @$$ as in FF14

If you cannot afford your cosmetic change addiction then you need to seek a self help group - one is available in the church of the light.

I do agree that the cost of transmog i very high, for no reason at all.

Atleast let us change between saved presets for free?
With the recent change to mog-farming and also the BIG access to different looks, why do we have to pay so much for it?

Its not a problem for me, but i tend to have all gold gatherd on one character and i dont want to send gold or visit Warbank to get gold on alts just to be able to transmog. It just feels like a bad design to me, even though i can cope with it, even more easily now with warbank atleast.

Cheers!

Or give the gold to me. I’ll look after it…

There is reason for it you just dont like it so you keep saying there is no reason for it.

I say increase the cost massively so people stick to their mogs for longer and have time to appreciate it. And we can always take our time before we click Accept.

An unpopular take, I know. Heehee.
