Is it legit to pay (game gold) for PvP kills?

Why not? People have bought dungeon/raid boosts since they could, don't see why it shouldn't be legit in pvp too.

[kresky]

I imagine it's possible, but it seems very tedious and something that nobody would want to do. I wouldn't want to pay for something like that. Were you considering paying for that service if it was available to you or did you want to offer it?

I recommend to just do it yourself and you'll feel much better when you earn it. Shoot, that's what achievements are about anyway.

Probably would be considered exploiting, but no one cares about this, and blizzard surely won't do anything.

legit as in ToS

[Mrbleedinggums]

Why would you think it wouldn't be?

[Philomene]

Legit but disgusting as hell, many "Warlords of Draenor" are now earned through kill arrangements.

Back in WotLK I paid someone a fair amount of gold so I could keep killing them for the tokens so I could get the mounts.

I know it disgusting, but it's really hard to find pandas in Ashran these days (Last night I killed 0 pandas in 3 hours)

Yes. Same for paying gold for ratings, as long as you are not sharing account info, etc.

Did almost 140+ pandas in a couple of weeks of quest farming in Tanaan Jungle. Try to find a populated PvP server and hunt them. I was at 60~, then left the game for 6 months, spent time in Ashran and outdoor, went to 370+ when 6.2 released and then finished a couple of weeks later w/o being focused on it.

Blizzard didn't help by removing the raid wide kills from Ashran.

I asked a GM something similar a couple months ago. His answer was that as long as it's for in-game currency and not real money, then challenge mode, raid, and even arena carries are permissible. I'd imagine this logic would extend to paying someone to let you kill them for a few hours.

Exploiting is using game mechanics as not intended. Gold is a currency to pay for a service, meaning it's legit.

[Saverem]

In game currency for in game services, it's legit.

It would be 'exploiting' if you payed the person in actual $$, like hiring a Chinese farmer to stand there while you kill him.
