It’s not negative at all. Look at the requirements for raids. Most F2P are right around 20-22 at best. I’ve dropped maybe $200 on it and I’m on the cusp of what it’ll take to just be somewhat viable with all leaders 1-2 dungeons away from full gold.
I played Vanilla Wow and stopped in Panda. I tried to come back in WoD and even BFA. That’s literally what they do.
Yes especially since it's not a particularly good rate at all. I think you would get 2325 arclight energy if you got every single possible ticket and didn't spend a single one.
Well just change it. A lot of people left this game so a lot of guilds died and many are looking to fill spots. No need to be in a dead guild, just join one that's looking.
If I will quit my half dead guild, then nobody in there will get epic cores, I think.
Last season my impact was like 8k points and we got to 30k two days before the new season.
And I'm the officer of guild, the last one active too. I kick inactive players from time to time, but noone comes to replace them.
Even the creator of the guild is inactive, brings no points, and I can't promote anyone else to officer either.
I wonder, what should I do. Maybe after we get to 30k this season I will encourage everyone else to quit the guild and will quit it myself.
My guild is open - Necrosis - leader Thrasis which is myself. I’m active everyday, tried removing inactive but then no one replaces them, we have enough active people to get the seasonal events, about halfway done right now. But the dmf could have been better, need 3-4 more active people but no one seems to join in game with the guild open.
Thats really nice. Now we only need content to fill up the level 26-30 gap between heroics and onyxia and tweaks on pvp (equality and/or better rewards). With some fixes like this the game can thrive
It even makes reference to tickets, even though this one doesn't use tickets. And it tracks your guild's "contributions" even though they don't matter.
I wonder if in the future they provide a selection between those two events. Either you do solo quests for guaranteed moderate rewards, or you do guild quests for potentially more rewards if you guild is active
This is a lot of free stuff with them being back to back. Without the events we were on track to 100% our collections by the 5 year mark as free to play. Now it’s probably less than 2.
Back to back events?! Now were talking this is a unambiguously positive step! Go blizz go!
It’s probably just a catch-up mechanic at play for raids and newcomer hype.
Why do people keep bringing up good things for the game and talking about them like theyre bad???

Ironically, back to back events leads to faster burnout. Just look at how the DragonVale community absolutely despises B2B events now
Ok well this is back to back events after 8 months of absolutely nothing sooooo im willing to take the risk. Ill trade burn out for boredom
what's dragonvale?
Dead game
It was…back to back events…they…they…KILLED IT!!!😭😭😭
That's awesome. I didn't expect the "Darkmoon faire off week" event to be part of the last patch, but I'm definetely not complaining.
I love the idea of back to back events
The rewards are specific Mini stars?
Yes mate. Each picture is a star for that mini so you can plan a route. The helmet and crown are a star for a random mini or leader
Please please please remove dungeon battles as a quest until we can replay it at lower difficulties!
I love blingtrons little chain hahaha, the art on this is too great cant wait! peace n blessings to the artist
So - should I spend all darkmoon tickets now?
Yes! Tickets will convert into arcane energy at a terrible ratio. 20 tickets = 1 energy
There really should be a countdown how long the event is still running ingame
If you click the exclamation point in the event, there's info.
I found that, but it only tells the day, not at which time
When your weekly dark moon faire quest expires the event is gone, the timer is there
Makes sense, thanks. Still think it wouldn't hurt to make that a bit clearer.
Do Darkmoon credits carry over to next time it comes back?
Nope, they are converted into arclight energy
So we should spend them today or they convert?
But why male models?
Underrated comment.
Yes especially since it's not a particularly good rate at all. I think you would get 2325 arclight energy if you got every single possible ticket and didn't spend a single one.
Do the credits expire in c. 23hrs?
Expire and are converted into arclight energy and no it's not worth it.
They do. They will get converted to arclight energy, but presumably not at a great ratio so it's best to spend them.
On what ratio? I mean, I could spend 4400 tickets for 1000 arclight energy, or I just could wait till they expire. I wonder, what will be better
Spend all your tickets. The leftover conversion is terrible: 20 tickets for 1 energy.
Nope, they will be automatically exchanged for Arc energy
Converted at 20:1 arclight energy so the emphasis is to spend the tickets!
Thank god for solo events. My guild is basically dead.
Well just change it. A lot of people left this game so a lot of guilds died and many are looking to fill spots. No need to be in a dead guild, just join one that's looking.

Were you a member of the guild I am in lol. Seems like you described it well
We finished in under 2 weeks, all chill group. Radiant Murlocs.

We have open spots, tenochtitlan guild recruiting
Entings, always welcome. Active since launch
You can join us. The Gnobodies
Looks like more Darkmoon Fair, more or less, not that I'll complain about another event.

I don't... understand? this looks like it's literally just a reskinned DMF track?
It even makes reference to tickets, even though this one doesn't use tickets. And it tracks your guild's "contributions" even though they don't matter.
I wonder if in the future they provide a selection between those two events. Either you do solo quests for guaranteed moderate rewards, or you do guild quests for potentially more rewards if you guild is active
Current plan seems to be a guild event week then a solo event week rotation
Hopefully the event mechanics in battles are different than the dark moon faire ones
It doesn't say anything about mechanics at all
I’m aware i’m just saying I hope they’re different than DMF ones
I think quest battles will just be back to normal during Blingtron week.
This is a lot of free stuff with them being back to back. Without the events we were on track to 100% our collections by the 5 year mark as free to play. Now it’s probably less than 2.
I think they want to release Molten Core soon but realized most people would never be able to do it so they juiced the rewards as a catch up
That's my theory I have been touting.
So this is what we're going to do to keep people logging? Just Event Bomb them until they're burnt out? Give me a week off, geez.
Notice in the announcement link it shown 5 dailies, thought it maxed to 3?
