If you could put Nether Vortex on the Shop, that would be great....
Let me help you out.
People choose what server to play on first by population, then by quality, then by exp rates. Shop prices do not factor in except to discourage people from playing there, if a shop exists. Now the reason stores are successful, is that if all the first 3 criteria are met, people will use the store en masse for convenience factor. Nobody chooses a server initially based on how much gear they can buy. Nobody. Except maybe you, judging by the way you talk.
Speaking pretty boldly for a population of tens of thousands of people. Those are not the factors or priorities that I used when choosing a private WoW server to play on. Cash shop availability and prices did indeed rank in my top three considerations for picking a place to go.
I must imagine that there is a fairly diverse set of priorities across the private server populations.
This is not a fact per se, it is how YOU percieve servers to be ranked, but that does not make it universal. Shops may deter some people from playing here, but you must remember the other side of the equation, which is that a shop can attract players. Now population like you said, is one reason people might want to play on a server. But if that is true, then so is my reasoning of low/medium prices. Low/medium prices = more donators and donators = players = more population.
You have to balance the loss of players from having a shop to the gains of players by having it. And Warmane has managed to do this quite well on Icecrown and I see no reason Outland should be an exception to that statement.
Why they added all Hyjal loots but not the t6 hands + head?
can we get an update for it in the shop?
