Seafarer's Doubloon Vendors, Diablo 3 BlizzCon Reward, MDI All Stars at BlizzCon

People complaining about rep. Who the heck still needs rep? Especially by time this is live lol. Even if you didn't play the first month and/or are playing a different faction you should STILL be exalted by time it's out.

[Surreality]

You need literally 10-15 minutes to get 250 reputation by simply running some world quests on a fresh character going solo. It's even faster with a better geared one or in a group. If you are lucky, you get about 10 dubloons in that time from expeditions. This is hilariously out of touch. Even if they increase reputation rewards 10 times it would not be worth the time.

Let me make sure I have this clear. A fresh 120 can get 250 reputation every 15 minutes just on world quests, which gets easier as you progress item level. On top of that you get a bunch of reputation from emissaries, other non-world quests, and if I'm not mistaken, dungeons. But 250 reputation for doubloons is "out of touch". I think I got it. Still not changing my stance. 250 is perfectly reasonable.

[Alcsaar]

250 rep is not worth 100 dubloons

Yea, that is absolutely absurd.

But hey, this is coming from a company who is expecting people to spend 2-3 months (minimum) of weekly currency to buy a single specific 385 azerite piece which will be worthless by then.

[Groven4]

So, do 3 world quests in a zone, or turn in 100 dubloons for the same amount of rep. Seems fair....not.

Alts maybe?

[Daevied]

I got a lucky parrot mount drop but pls god, make the bee mount be able to be bought with currency and not random drop from expeditions

[Sastank]

Alts maybe?

Is there a point to get honorbound/7th Legion rep on alts?

[IIamaKing]

Should have all the pets, toys and mounts on the vendor, and that vendor should have been in from day 1.

[dayne87]

For 100 dubloons I would expect 1000 rep. Granted, once I have exalted with each group on a character of each faction I won't need to worry about rep on alts for the most part (also considering catch-up mechanics will be in-game by the time I level the rest of my characters, so rep rewards will be irrelevant).

As for the rewards from it, I feel like it's too little too late. IE's already have a bad reputation. They need to make ALL rewards buyable with dubloons (of varying costs) in order for them to viable to be run. Also, consider selling gear tokens for Dubloons - maybe pirate themed ones.

Agree, but I'd be willing to accept moving all the gear sets to Trial of Style, putting all the weapons on a Doubloon vendor and giving us a way to guarantee at least one special drop when we run Islands based off a Doubloon purchase.

Grind... grind... grind... grind... and RNG... RNG... RNG... No - thank - you Blizzard.

The eyes on that seahorse are some of the worst eyeballs i've ever seen.

[dope_danny]

God those island expeditions must really be struggling for player retention.

[Gadzooks]

Have you ever seen a seahorse? I have - I used to keep them in my reef tanks. The eyes on that mount look pretty accurate.

[whywhatwhowhenhow]

The Doubloon items should have been there from the god damned fucking start!

I agree. Now the people that were actually using them are being punished for not saving up.

Sorry but there needs to be a new currency.

I think there might be. Wowhead, at least, is tagging a version of the Doubloons from beta which are a BoA bag-based version, not a character-locked currency version.

Well that's alright then. I'll let them off this time.

Since they have given so many "options" for earning rep or gear, It would be nice if they have a "general" tabard for this expansion which you can buy and then you could choose which rep you want to represent while doing dungeons.

I honestly don't like or enjoy doing world quest they are kind of boring for me I prefer practicing dungeons over and over while gaining something out of them which could be useful whether might be gear or rep from it. This is really the only way I'll see myself gaining revered or exalted with different rep. I haven't even finished the War Campaign since it requires 7th Legion rep revered. And the only reason I pushed that rep a bit was so I could run King's Rest dungeon.

[Raetary]

Virtual tix in-game rewards are kind of lacking this year. And they still haven't announced WoW's reward which is the whole point of the rewards...

they did.

its a faction cloack and a toy banner.

available right now if you have bought the ticket.

[zharkos]

So what do you think would be a fair number? Personally, I don't think 250 is unreasonable at all. I'm guessing that there are quite a few people sitting on a few thousand doubloons just from farming toys and mounts and transmogs and all the fun things that has become modern WoW. With that in mind, 250 seems like a pretty good number to me.

I'm already very much passed exalted at this point and 250 is a joke. i stopped doing expeditions before i ever saw past 80 doubloons and i have 3 full sets of the mog. I'm not farming enough of this dull ass content for a fraction of a fraction of rep when i can do a single world quest and get the same amount
