World of Warcraft Gold Challenge - Beta Competition Hour 1

2012-01-23T12:10:00.001-05:00

I decided to make a Human Rogue for the competition, thinking that stealth may be useful in helping to get my couple stacks of copper ore that I need to begin my reselling journey at the Auction House. Stormwind is the best Auction House in terms of distance between mailbox, bank, vendor, and auctioneers, plus the run from the newbie area is not that far. Like the Alpha Competition, my plan was

AnalysisEinstein visits our protagonist occasionally? Though he seems to be sitting in front of a modern computer array, we are left pondering the many possibilities.

2011-07-09T15:31:00.003-04:00

The Review When you get your 20 Mark of the World Tree and start into the Molten Front of Firelands dailies, you'll notice a fairly stark dichotomy in design. The daily quests you'll be running in Mount Hyjal will be sorta cute (punting turtles and chucking bear cubs come to mind) and will be reasonably spread out in a calm, flowing sort of manner.

Now that the commodities markets are cooling and the Cataclysm expansion starts to shake off its fledgling exuberance, I've started to turn back to the Auction House to supplement my strategic gold reserve.

Why Do Players Buy Gold in World of Warcraft?

2010-12-22T00:06:00.000-05:00

The biggest reason players buy gold in World of Warcraft is because making gold in WoW is often tedious and job-like compared with Player vs. Player, Group, and Raid experiences.
