    just start selling yourself SE

    First, like super duper promise not a troll thread. So instead of spend real big Monopoly paper on titles and mounts with all of its shadyness from 24/7 party finder listings that never get a strike, how about SE just sells it directly to the players.

    Think of it like auction house 2.0 from Diablo 2. They can throw all the BiS in there too, doesn't have to be on patch day but eventually. Sky is the limit but please don't go down the worse road of all, LOOTBOXES.

    And to give back to players have past seaonal food recipes available to purchase for gil. Fair trade off to me. Or do you, the wonderful community on the forum, think i have gone to far and that the seasonal food should stay on the store.

    Also, I'm horrible banker. Im all out of the 500s and the 1s. Strippers hate me.

    They don't provide an endgame advantage so no, they aren't "i win" buttons. Can't believe I'm actually defending MPK here! Also, the premise of this thread is terrible.

    Terrible in what way? And they provide an advantage to endgame. Those BiS won't stay BiS until SE stops adding content so its also glamour selling.

    What you are promoting is pay to win on every level, not just for shiny glamour items. Also, tell me what jump potions provide as an advantage for endgame, aka max level. The solution to eliminating the selling of carries for in game currency is an impossible task. They've been around since the beginning of this genre. Real money trading? That's a problem in and of itself even without these carries being a factor.

    The advantage is against new or alt accounts the don't pay. The faster you can get to endgame, the faster you can work to overcoming it. Its a paid ingame advantage.

    Your wording is weird, but if you’re talking about making savage gear available to sell on the MB, that could be profitable to savage raiders who would be doing that actual work to get it. Sort of like how non-crafters can buy high quality crafted gear sold by crafters who put in the work to make it.

    However, I think part of the fun of high-end content is getting the exclusive pretty pixels that come with it. The raid community is pretty shafted in this game as it is, so regardless of potential profit I’m not sure this would sit well.

    The listings are annoying, but not a big enough deal to do something as drastic as what you’re suggesting. Keep the savage stuff exclusive. Those of us too lazy to do it can just demolish the expansion after. Or I guess pay hundreds of dollars for clears, which is hilarious.

    But it doesn't provide an advantage at endgame. Once players get there, they have to jump through all the hoops everyone else does. Doesn't matter if it took them 10 hours or 3 days. They also don't allow boosting to max level, so there's that as well.

    For sake of arguement I'm going to say that sure, the current skip books are pay to win because they reduce the amount of time taken to reach endgame.

    That doesn't mean that making everything buyable is a good thing. Or that adding literal pay to win 'buy this and the boss dies and you get all the rewards' is a good idea. There is such a thing as nuance, context and degrees of severity.
