WOW token went over 400K gold on NA

[shanker]

was stumbling around youtube last night, was surprized to see token had went over 400K gold on NA servers, huge jump from when i remember last October seeing it at 137K gold, one month before the prepatch for DF

Hmm... do I need some gold right now?

at the moment it's at 317K.

token price imo does not make sense, i have seen prices at start of expacs, mid expac, patches, and end of expac population swings. this DF expac breaks the mold of the 4 previous expacs.

i find it hard to believe that crafting, recrafting is driving this.

it makes it worthwhile now to pay $$ for gold boosting earnings and making the merger (before and after) more attractive

Botters buy tokens to pay for their subs. I imagine that plays a large factor. And then botting situation gets worse every expansion, especially with all the sharding. That or there's some artificial pricing due to lack of dragonflight purchases. They've had dragonflight on sale pretty much since they released. A few weeks off here and there but every time I look at the website it seems to be on sale.
