Otherwise, gold passes between players in exchange for various in-game goods. When you pay gold to purchase something from an NPC vendor or when you pay to repair your equipped gear, that gold ceases to exist. Gold in World of Warcraft is spontaneously created when you kill an enemy and loot coins from it, when you sell items to a vendor and when you complete a quest that rewards you with some currency. This isn’t a zero-sum game where you can hoard a resource to bring up the value.
Unlike a real-world currency, there is no set amount of gold, either. Killing enemies who drop useful items or gathering natural resources causes them to respawn, so the limit on these goods is equivalent to the amount of time people spend harvesting them. There has never been anything truly scarce in World of Warcraft nothing in the game is really finite except the time players put into it. I’ve resubscribed to the game to see how things are today, which is kind of like smoking just a little bit of crack to remember the flavor. Since a lot of players are now wondering whether they’re going to be able to pay for their subscriptions with gold, it might be a good time for a discussion of Azeroth’s economy, and how it has evolved over the last decade. The price will start at 30,000 gold, and will fluctuate based on market conditions.Ī few years ago, when I played World of Warcraft, I was able to earn thousands of gold a day on the Auction House, and had so much extra currency that I was able to spend millions of gold on rare cosmetic items. Blizzard introduced new functionality to allow people to buy game-subscription tokens that they can sell to other players for in-game currency in the most recent patch to World of Warcraft.
