Lordaeron - buying items for real money. Fake or reality?

[Jakkre]

I really doubt that.... Perhaps when it's been having ICC for a really long time that would be the case but i hope not... They will make money nontheless lol!

Money with what? Mounts?
I doubt that many ppl will donate for lower tier items that are even more expensive than on the other realms.

Dont get me wrong, I would love to have no donor gear at all. I just doubt that ICC and RS gear will never be available because there is just too much money that can be earned with it.

Jakkre is correct. According to Kaer, the limitation is meant to stay until the last bit of Wrath of the Lich King content is released, then it will be lifted and the content in the shop will be equal to what's available to be acquired in-game, minus Legendary items. I don't know if there would be a delay, how long a delay would be or if it would happen alongside the content release, but it's a bit early to get into that anyways.

Just to ask a straight forward question

Will Shadowmourne quest be disabled ?
because there is really no point in putting restrictions or talking about a NON-P2W realm if Shadowmourne is available on Coins but not in-game.

Did you read what he just said? "content in the shop will be equal to what's available to be acquired in-game, minus Legendary items".
And why would Shadowmourne quest be disabled?

The reason the quest line is disabled on the other servers is how easy it was for people to abuse it with external programs. It's not a matter of it being bugged or the usual "ur greeady!1!!" thing. From what I understand that quest line is going to be available and Shadowmourne obtainable in-game, yes. The goal is to have everything we can possibly have working to be working.

Thanks for an answer about Shadowmourne :) I was looking for one :D Still i'm happy about the gear answer as well :)

its still better to get a clear answer from officials rather than keep wondering about things :P

@Obnoxious thanx for the reply :) cheers

Wait so once ICC has all the bosses available and heroic mode is out also... Does that mean you can donate ICC items then like a full set or something? That would kinda remove a lot of the players reward for actually working hard for their gear and then someone in full set comes and brags about how they bought it all? I think that's a bad decision to make but meh... If we think about it then the realm will turn out to be like Rag/Deathwing once ICC is fully released minus the Shadowmourne.

I guess u gonna need +264 item level gear to buy +277 hc gear.
For example, the t10 sanctified set to buy the t10 hc set.

Or you can, you know, play the game to get the items, and do it for yourself, not taking into consideration every move and choice players you might never meet make regarding their own fun.

[lassi68]

If they do this before all the bosses have been killed on heroic, well, that will suck big time.

Still it kinda ruins the experience if other people who have worked for their gear when ICC is out and you see someone with a full set from donations... Just think that's wrong... I think that's what he ment by hes snobbish comment. Even if we can ignore them and not play with them they affect the population and the server in my opinion. I simply wished that ICC gear was not gonna be apart of the coin shop but i hoped too much i guess... The income from ICC items is too high i suppose or what is the reasoning behind it? I just don't want a Deathwing/Ragnaros 2.0.

[Feralbeard]

I support the idea that you must obtain 264 ilvl item in-game by doing raids to be able to donate for 277 ilvl equal item. With this system players will have knowledge for at least normal raid mode. Otherwise there will be bad guys will big pockets who will get priority over less geared people(because it is Warmane and GS > skill) but they might be bad at strategies and general knowledge of wow, class, etc. That will ruin the quality of raids period.
If it will turn out to be different then this realm will be no better that Deathwing and Ragnaros, which just..suck hard. And p2w will live yet again.

IMO, the maximum ilevel available on Coins shop should be 251 or 264 only.
