Cool but theres nothing worthwhile to get with bnet balance. Unless you like normalfag games.

Can't you get Overwatch lootboxes with Battle.net balance? This could be a good time for WoWfags to cash out.

wowfags bought game time till 2020

>worthwhile
>Overwatch lootboxes
Choose one

Cool.

Its gonna cause the price of them to go up drastically I bet, making people buy them just for the gold. Ultimately blizzard is gonna end up getting $5 on every sale making them always win.

Could use it for WoW character services.

So, they are killing the only players left on their game? Because I think nobody still pays that shit with cash.

So does this mean you can now buy a WoW Token from the auction house for gold and exchange it for 15 Blizzard bux?

i pay with cash faggot

Can i do this without actually wasting a token to enter my lvl 110 chars?
I had like 5 tokens saved up for this

Amazing idea, senpai

greedy blizz making you spend a token to log into your character first to be able to change the tokens into balance

Id use it to buy Hots skins but no one here shares that opinion, I know that for sure.

>Plays retail
>Calls others faggots

>Tokens cost $20
>Add $15 to b.net balance

jews

quick niggers how can I make 5k gold fast before the token goes up
no one is buying matts

>Get the whole value so you can endlessly cycle from token to B.net balance

Impossible to buy them right now

So? It doesn't cost Blizzard anything.

Even so, 5$ for a transfer is ridiculous.

what would be the problem with doing this

Great, now the price to play WoW will skyrocket because it uses the same tokens as the store. Fucking hell. 60k was already quite a bit.

No, you're getting money for WoW gold instead of a token. You're basically getting free money instead of the $15 value of a sub.

>people still play this fucking game

Wew

I figure when a game begins to push this sort of thing it indicates they've lost a healthy, stable population and are now preying on whales who'll make up for it by spending a fuckpile.

how the fuck do you make gold now? no one is buying shit

As opposed to playing what? It's the only time-waster game around that isn't a mobile game.

My servers have full population, but that all kind of depends on what the cap is. Since everything is phased these days there's no real way to tell either.

Not like it matters anymore, the game is pretty much single player now because faggots on the forums cry about socializing.

It's been like this for years my man. The only people still playing retail WoW are the biggest shiteating drones you could ever imagine.

Blizzard has been cashing out on short attention span casuals for awhile now. Just look at their release cycle. They start shilling WoW store, shit out D3 with the RMAH, go back and fix it xDDDD with RoS, and then keep stringing them along with terrible, yet highly advertised and microtransaction packed games with Hearthstone and Overwatch.

Wouldn't be surprised if they go full mobage at this point, a new Blizzard "game" is gonna hit soon.

pfft its 110k on EU servers you cuddled fgt

It keeps going up because there's nothing to do in game but farm.

This will inflate its value even more because real money is endlessly more valuable than gold.

they're probably trying to squeeze money for the last expansion for D3

after that they'll probably go raw into OW and make it even worse

If you do Starcraft II CoOp it'd be a decent way to get the characters since them being behind a paywall is super shitty considering some people spent 120 or more for their ebin saga

I still play WoW, but if someone came along and released a better MMO game I'll be all over it. Already tried XIV, and it does boss fights amazingly well but everything else is mediocre.

Just want a good fantasy game I can mess around in. Maybe if Conan Exiles ever leaves EA.

Suggest me another mmo that isn't fucking shit.

Fuck GW2.
Fuck Wildstar.
Fuck the only competitor being Weeb WoW.

guys how do I make gold?
are old raids still the way to go?

Do Mythic+ runs and sell boe 900 items.

>all tokens on EU sold out

Ebin. Gonna be 300k tomorrow

Are there any boes in m+? Never heard of it before

I would also buy hots skins

I just want that FUCKING cloud

Move on. The genre is fucking dead. How many times do you have to be told that before you finally get it through your skull?

Better buy the bundle. Bitch.

What is the price of hots skins?

Ironically cheaper than Dota 2 skins.

Varying levels of ridiculously overpriced. It's like $10 for a 'basic' skin and $15-20 for a 'legendary' one.

>the overwhelming majority of dota 2 skins cost a whopping 50 cents for a full set on the market
>HotS skins cost $5 for the cheapest ones, and $10 for most of them
you what

>I can Finally move off the Shitty low pop server I got stuck in.
>all I need to do is farm gold for a whole month to do it.

back to tichondrious I go.

Expensive as fuck, you'd wanna stay glued to the weekly sales if you wanna not get jewed.

This came out 3 hours ago with the new skins and also showing off Lucio.

>the overwhelming majority of dota 2 skins cost a whopping 50 cents for a full set on the market
Depending entirely on the value and rarity of the set. You're forgetting the sets that go for hundreds of dollars on the same market.

best way to make gold is just to join a top 50 region guild and sell raid carries

>plebbit skin
>on the worst hero

pottery

How does that work if you have to share the gold with 20 others?

Because you can carry multiple people in one run, sell the loot as well, and people pay literal gorillions of gold.

I havent played since WoD but 1 sell would easily be worth months of wow tokens.

WoWfag here, I only buy in 3 month bits because the game is that awful now, it's all I can stand to play it for before unsubbing.

>cash out
>turn something that there are ways to turn into real money or atleast Blizzbucks that you can spend on other products into something that is untradeable and shitty.

Are you one of those people that talk about "investing" in a gaming PC.

Who else have been sitting on 10 of these?
Time to get Overwatch for free
And a extra one that I can sell to a friend

Thanks Blizz

>tfw 2 million gold on US servers

Guess I'll finally buy reaper of souls, over watch, and Starcraft 2

Co-op in SC2 is pretty fun.

or just buy overwatch and sell it on keysites?

yeah if you're good enough at the game to be in a top 50 region, sure. most people aren't.

I have plenty of these but I own all the Blizzard games I want. I think.

Guess I should just liquify them and keep them until something comes along.

so how does this token selling work? let's say we all try to get some money out of our old wow accounts but not enough people buy 20$ tokens to get shitty wow gold. what then?

dingadingding

give it three months and you'll see articles about people buying overwatch with b.net money and selling it to keysites

Then the price of tokens plummet and you don't get much Battlebux for your gold.

Then you'd have to sell your account. Blizzard isn't selling you CD keys for these.

What about Gift a "friend"

Fuck, I gave away 3 millions worth of gold before uninstalling WoW.

TES Online is actually pretty fun, but is in no way a serious competitor.

If I were still teenage me, I'd probably have used it to buy some of the pets/mounts on the shop. But now i've got a job and a card to pay for it myself, I don't see a need for it since I can just buy any pets/mounts directly.

it's pretty easy, 90% of it is time commitment and nepotism since raiding is a joke

this is incorrect. cheapest skins are 7, average are 10, most expensive are 15. Weekly sales chop that in half

It's fun but doesn't satisfy my MMO needs. I'm also just not really into TES lore.

That's perfect, because TESO bastardized all of it. It has absolutely no relevance to the lore.

OSRS

Well that explains a lot.

Unsurprisingly there's no tokens on the AH, so much for getting them while they were cheap

carries killed wow. More than anything blizzard ever did to it.

There is nothing more cancerous than paid carry group.

I never paid for a kill and I never will.

carries are just a symptom of the cancerous design

>Cancerous Community

Fixd. WoW is garbage but paid dungeon runs aren't indicitive of bad design.

How would you remove the need for carries in an MMO anyhow?

I get you're retarded, but man to compare a skin he's had since overwatch release to reddit is beyond retarded

What genre isn't dead?

ASSFAGGOTS and Multiplayer FPS.

>nothing more cancerous
There is the GW2 community, pic related GW2 players arguing about DPS meters getting added

90% of the thread is the same, people arguing it will "increase toxicity" w/e the fuck that means, basically they the most offendable group of failed miscarriages to disgrace the earth

By tuning shit so tight you cant carry.

Lack of UI mods is part of why GW2 is garbage, not that the game's combat system permits much depth for theorycrafting. It's even more shallow than modern WoW which is pathetic coming from GW1.

I just opened the game for the first time in months to buy some tokens and I'm blown away with how well it runs. Not that I don't expect 60 fps+ in WoW but it certainly hasn't been running like that in capitals this autumn when I played regularly.

That wouldn't work. Carries function because as you get stuff on farm status the gear/experience you get from running the raid (or in the case of Legion getting rng legendaries from the world lel) the raid becomes easy enough to permit extra players. If you tuned it around that point, nobody would be able to clear it simply due to lack of gear.

The only real way they could prevent carries from happening would be to create mechanics that simply require 20 competent players, but even then carries would still probably exist.

I think the real issue is that gold has just become all important. Carries wouldn't be as much of a thing/problem if you couldn't buy your way into everything whether it's ingame or through wow tokens. The extent of gold should never really surpass consumables and weak gear at best, but inflation and a need for goldsinks to deal with that inflation just makes it more and more valuable every expansion.

>this game is so awful and shit I can only play it for 3 months straight before I take a break before another 3 month streak
are you listening to yourself, you fucking love that game

Only time i resub is new expansions. usually for the pre-expansion patch, then the next two months, unsub and wait two years, repeat. Been that way since vanilla.

Nah, you can downscale ilvl to a fixed number. And prevent usage of any gear above certain fixed ilvl. Something like Herald of the Titans only tuned so every player has to carry their own weight.

Definitely possible.

> current expiration date July 3
>expiration date after redeem June 4

wtf

probably not

why would they let you do that?

>wow in 2017
>turn token into $ to buy garbage off their store

zero fucks

Since you could before, and still can?

>just redeemed 3 tokens with all my gold last night

I have like, 200k gold on my wow characters that I havn't played in years. Would I have to spend 1 token to first reactivate my account in order to convert the rest to battle.net cash I could spend on shit they might release in the future?

How much are tokens anyway? They still around the 30k I remember hearing when they first came out?

Yes. And if you're on EU there are none on AH.

I imagine they will be at least 200k minimum tomorrow, if there will be any at all.
