I did check, you have 2 mythic feats from the last 3 expansions. Clearing it after the tier is over isn't relevant.
So let's get this straight:
You've played this game for "over a decade" but you're still a below-average raider with 2 mythic FoS's over the past 3 expansions and it took you nearly 2 weeks to break 2k in 5s in WoD.
Yet you think you can "easily obtain it, it's just boring"
Please, return to the general-OT forums. Consider the fact you're below-average at a game you've played for 10 years and consider unsubbing before you waste any more time. You don't deserve any of these rewards, stop pretending like you do.
Ah, if only you got caught and banned.
Don't try making up bullshit again. I'm good at this.

...You don't actually know how the armory works do ya sport?
Look I get it you don't pvp so I won't hold it against you but you realize mythic wasn't a thing till wod right?
There doesn't exist mythic feats for MoP and any expansion before it. If you want a honest tally of my progression I missed ICC heroic LK from school and this expansions mythic raiding.
I feel like I might of been late on a Cata one or two I can't recall when I got back but most people don't have 20 weeks of kills on the last tiers.
Again why are you so defensive? Do you have some weird kinda complex against people who are not into pvp?
yes, pvp carries for gold do happen. it is pretty common on outlands-eu
No, I have some "weird kinda complex" against trash-tier players buying boosts and thinking it's not a problem.
You're not into PvP, so therefore don't deserve the reward. There's actually a ladder for PvP, and it affects other people if you buy rating.
You say "It doesn't matter because I'd get it anyway" but I can guarantee you wouldn't.

The reason you're getting so much beef is due to the fact that PvP carries and PvE carries are inherently different. When you carry someone to a Cutting Edge FoS, or even a Mythic mount, you're not taking that away from someone else.
When you carry someone in rated PvP, you're negatively affecting the ladder. Let's say you wanted a carry to 2.2k. On the way, I can almost guarantee you'll stop at least one person from getting tabard, or something else they would have otherwise earned. Even ignoring the fact that you beat teams you likely shouldn't have due to playing with paid higher rated partners that normally wouldn't be queing anywhere near that MMR, you also bump people that earned their spots on the ladder down. Let's say glad cutoff was 200 players on your faction. That means Duelist is ~Rank 1200. Once you get that 2.2k, you will bump someone who actually earned Duelist down to Rival. While that might not seem like a big deal, there are players who play for non Glad titles still.
In short, PvE carries don't take rewards and titles away from other players. PvP carries do.
More like for real money, so wouldn't recommend even being in contact with PVP boost-sellers.

Exactly.
PVE boosts (for gold, cash is against the rules regardless) are vastly different from PVP boosts in terms of who is affected.
The PVP rewards I want have been eluding me for many MANY years, but at the same time I resign to the fact that I'm just not a good enough PVPer to earn the rewards, so I won't get them anytime soon. Maybe one day.
The issue is you're not earning it. It doesn't matter whether you like the pvp or not, you're helping to ruin the experience for many other players.
To answer your question though, for years a lot of high end arena players who sell this "service" do so for real cash. Most won't talk about it in game as it's a bannable offense.
You're also keeping other players from legitimately earning their rewards. Carries in PvP ruin the experience for everyone involved. You don't deserve the rewards if you aren't willing to even try for them on your own merits.

I've personally been affected by it.
Back in MoP, I was camping HotA on my main and I was playing my alt. I ended the season 1 rating below the projected cutoff on my alt, which was generally safe because it was before all the DQs went out.
I reported numerous people that season for wintrading, cheating and buying boosts. Titles went out and I was still 1 rating below the cutoff. Not a single person got DQed that season.
And what would cause that? People like the guy in this thread buying shit they can't get legitimately.
Buying PvE boosts is different because you're not affecting anyone else.
I admit to not really realizing that. I always thought a net gain of points was obtained with it bottle necking. I can understand the frustration then. I didn't think 2k was a ranking high enough were it would realistically effect that. I will whole hardly admit to being lack luster in pvp. I played a few games but I only learnt enough to get what I wanted in the form of kill windows and a very,very cheesy team comp with a few raider buddies.
Very well lets say after I am done with this tier I dip my toe into pvp. As a mage what would be my most likely avenue for success? Arenas or rated bgs?
This isn't a make or break it thing for me. I just have years of carry gold saved up and finally found something that I would be interested in buying that would normally be a grueling grind and well I wanted to jump on it.
FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
If you can get the people for it who can coordinate (normally have a shot caller / back up caller or two when someone dies / different areas due to objectives) RBGs are easy to get rating. It's less about personal skill and more about group coordination and knowing good strats and what not.
Arenas are good if you are good at PvP since it will only require you to find one - two more people who are also good and can work together.
So I might recommend RBGs if you can find the people for it. Bit tough to do normally outside of a dedicated PvP guild. Used to play horde stormrage and had a RBG group, getting that together was a nightmare.
I fucking feel you. I really want those awesome elite sets I've always been envious of people because I haven't PvP'd seriously in forever. I remember getting some Elite pieces in Cata on my rogue, which was my main at the time, and ended up vendoring the pieces in Mists. Pretty upset now a days, because if I kept them I could've added them to the Appearances tab in Legion. :c
Me? I dont only pvp and I run a group than sell carries for mythic plus and we used to sell raid carries for mounts in WoD so I have tons of gold. But for pvp at max level no you dont need gold. You can DE or vendor the loot from win boxes or just do a few WQs a day for the gold. Even leveling you dont need gold.
