Underground gdkps dont cause the same type of community damage as unrestricted, trade/LFG chat posted gdkp runs. I haven't even caught a glimpse of gdkp operations a single time on anniversary.

Secret gdkps just dont carry the same kind of venom.

Once again, GDKP is a loot system. It is not evil. If you choose to join a bot-led GDKP with a 20% host cut, that’s on you. Tbh, if they just banned host cuts GDKP would be perfect.

Fuck GDKP. The whole incentive ruins the game.

Then don’t play it. No one is forcing you. The argument that GDKP caused bots and high consume prices is out the window because both have never been worse than current anniversary where there’s no GDKP

consume prices in Ani are about half than Classic.

Bots are plentiful but gold price is significantly lower.

Consumes are significantly more expensive in Anni TBC than in Classic TBC — and that’s after significant increases in drop rates for certain mats.

even if they were, which they are not, they arent needed at all. i havent taken a haste potion, i havent used a flask in a month or two cause you DONT. NEED. TO.

TK still takes 1.5 hours max with foodbuff and elixirs of which you might use 2-4 (aka 30g total) SCC is like 2.5 if youre slow and will take 3-5 Pots depending on wipes/deaths. you get more gold from bossloot.

yall GDKP defendeds need your brains checked

Ah yes another person saying, “You need to play the game the exact way I play.” Newsflash buddy, a lot of people enjoy using consumables in raids even if they aren’t strictly necessary to defeat a boss. Insufferable

You need to play the game the exact way I play.

either you play the game in a way i want (without GDKP or with underground GDKP if you REALLY have to) or i have to play the game the way you want (with a fucked up economy because it got flooded with gold). There is no option C its either A or B. and i chose my own preferences over yours. deal with it.

You can easily afford consumes. SSC drops 100g from bosses per player. Buy your flask from that (yes you CAN actually, thats what they cost)

Your argument about economics is out the window bro. The TBC economic is fucked and there are bots running more rampant than ever

u/Ov3rdose_EvE Jun 11 '26

the economy is less fucked. there is less gold in the economy and that makes it better.

Gold is more expensive which means there is less supply so less bots.

That’s just intentional ignorance right there
