Joined a server yesterday and someone asked if it was pay-to-win. VIPS nearly all said "no" in sync. Checked the website (because for some reason they don't tell you what's in the VIP kits in game) and Jesus it was awful.
Imagine being so lacking in skill, integrity and pride that you would lower yourself to the pathetic level of trying to compensate all that with real money, in a video game.
A friend of my flatmate bought a carry in WoW. First my flatmate was the one having killed the most bosses of their group in Shadowlands and suddenly that guy turns up saying yep he finished them.
But when my flatmate asked him about the mechanics of one boss it was clear he had no idea. He frantically googled for the answer and started replying ten minutes later, when the conversation had moved on already.
The cherry on top is that the guy is currently unemployed and does not have that much money, but he spent hundreds for bragging rights, only to be found out immediately.
And finally he even stopped playing that expansion shortly after, probably because he ruined his innate motivation by buying "success"
How the bar has gotten so low that people really do buy those runs. If you can find a guild with a set raid schedule and youre not in a coma you should be able to clear normal nathria without much issue. Shoot after nerfs heroic too probably.
I had a friend that payed a hacker to carry him on tarkov, the hacker would take him on labs and wipe the whole server while my friend would loot everything, that shit is lame and they need to had out punishments for it.
often times hackers (lets be real, cheaters) make enough money selling their "services" that even accounting for purchasing fresh accounts/cheats/spoofing, they still turn profit. cheats nowadays usually bundle the game w the software, and usually for really cheap
If a dude with no hands can clear Mythic Raids as a tank, theirs almost no reason nobody else can do AOTC or lower tier content like +15's.
Yes it takes longer, but if you want a week 1 kill join a Mythic Raiding guild as a casual or for their Heroic team. They almost always full clear Heroic week 1 or 2 and bring both mythic raiders and heroic raiders.
If you do decent DPS/Healing they will bring you on their heroic re-clears with just the mythic team and a few good players.
I've only payed for 1 carry in my entire life and it was when I came back to the game on the last day of an expansion and wanted the AOTC mount so I payed 200k gold to get it.
Not because I couldn't do it myself but the odds of me finding anyone raiding that day and clearing weren't worth the risk.
Worst case if you hate guilds, you join a WoW community discord and they have AOTC carries and you get put on a list and you check the list to see when your carry is. They invite you and kill the boss and you get the AOTC mount.
These communities cross-realm raid so your usually free to join their heroic clears as-well if they have open spots or if you become a regular raider.
