Coming soon to an Azeroth near you: the WoW Token, a new in-game item that allows players to simply and securely exchange gold and game time between each other.
Players will be able to purchase a WoW Token through the in-game Shop for real money, and then sell it on the Auction House for gold at the current market price. When a player buys a WoW Token from the Auction House for gold, the Token becomes Soulbound, and the player can then redeem it for 30 days of game time.
Want to buy a WoW Token for gold? Had to the new Game Time tab in the Auction House, and purchase one immediately for the current gold buyout price—there’s no bidding involved.
When you put a WoW Token up for sale, you’ll be quoted the amount of gold you’ll receive once someone buys it—you’re guaranteed to get that amount no matter how the market moves.
The WoW Token was created to give players with lots of extra gold the option to use it to help cover their subscription cost, and give those who want to purchase gold a way to do so from fellow players through a secure, easy-to-use system. The Token will be making its debut in an upcoming patch—in the meantime, check out the FAQ below for details on how it works.
FAQ
THE BASICS
Q: How do I buy a WoW Token for real money? A: WoW Tokens will be available for purchase for real money through the World of Warcraft in-game Shop. You can access the Shop through the row of feature buttons next to your character’s bags.
Q: I need gold! How do I sell a WoW Token to another player? A: You’ll be able to sell WoW Tokens through a dedicated Token exchange in the Auction House, located in a new Game Time section. WoW Tokens cannot be traded or sold any other way.
Q: How much gold will I receive when I sell a WoW Token? A: The gold value of a Token will be determined dynamically based on supply and demand. When you put a Token up for sale, you’ll be quoted the amount of gold you’ll receive upon a successful sale. If you then decide to place the Token up for sale, that amount is locked in, and the gold will be sent to your mailbox after another player purchases your Token.
Q: I need game time! How do I buy a WoW Token from the Auction House? A: When you visit the Auction House, you’ll be presented with the current market price for a WoW Token in your game region—there’s no bidding involved, and all Tokens in a game region are priced the same at any given moment. If you decide to purchase one, you’ll receive it in your mailbox, and can then immediately redeem it for game time.
Q: How much game time do I get by redeeming a WoW Token? A: You’ll receive 30 days of game time when you redeem a WoW Token.
Q: Can I resell a WoW Token after I’ve purchased it for gold? A: No, each WoW Token can only be sold once. After you purchase a Token for gold, it becomes Soulbound. At that point, it can only be redeemed for game time.
THE DETAILS
Q: How much will a WoW Token cost on the Shop? A: Pricing details will be announced at a later date.
Q: Why are you introducing the WoW Token feature? A: We’ve heard feedback from players that they’d be interested in a secure, legitimate way to acquire gold that doesn’t involve the use of unauthorized third-party gold-selling services—one of the primary sources of account compromises. We also know players who’ve amassed large amounts of gold through regular play would be interested in the ability to trade some to other players in exchange for game time, helping cover their subscription costs. The WoW Token feature gives players on both sides of the equation a secure and straightforward way to make that exchange. It opens up a new kind of payment option for World of Warcraft players, and we hope that it will also help lead to fewer account compromises and a better game experience overall.
Q: How is acquiring gold by selling a WoW Token different from buying gold from third-party services? A: Buying gold from third-party services negatively impacts the game experience for everyone. The overwhelming majority of the gold these services provide comes from stolen player accounts, halting the victims’ ability to play the game and contribute to their guilds. On top of this, gold selling companies often farm resources using hack programs, sell fake product codes as a scam, and spam entire realms with ads to buy gold, disrupting the game in very real ways.
The WoW Token allows players to exchange real money for gold in a secure and sanctioned way—together with the ongoing efforts of our developers, support staff, and anti-hack teams to stop the exploits these companies use and help players who have become victims of their operations, we hope the Token can help make World of Warcraft a safer and more enjoyable game for all of our players.
Q: Why can’t players set their own prices for the WoW Token? A: The WoW Token feature is designed to facilitate the exchange of gold and game time between players in as secure, convenient, and fair a way as possible, and without making players feel like they’re playing a game with their hard-earned money. Having a set current market price and a straightforward exchange system is the best way to achieve that—you don’t need to worry about whether your Token will sell or not due to being undercut or the market shifting, and everyone receives exactly the amount of gold they were quoted.
Q: What happens if the price quoted to me is different from what the Token actually sells for? A: You will always receive the gold amount quoted to you at the time you place a Token up for sale, regardless of what the current price is when the item actually sells.
Q: How long should I expect to receive my gold after putting a Token up for sale? How does the game determine whose Token to sell? A: The amount of time it takes to receive your gold after putting a Token up for sale depends on a variety of factors, including the current supply and demand. When you list a Token, you’ll be quoted an estimated time based on the current Token supply and the rate of recent transactions, but the actual amount of time it takes to sell is likely to vary (note that Tokens do not expire). In most cases, Tokens are sold in the order in which they were put up for sale; however, there are some exceptions to this, such as when a Token purchase is undergoing verification.
Q: If I buy a WoW Token from the Auction House, how long does it take to receive the Token? A: Just like a standard Auction House purchase, it will normally arrive in your mailbox nearly instantaneously.
Q: If I’m buying a WoW Token for real money from the in-game Shop, how long does it take to receive it? A: Once you successfully complete a purchase, your Token should arrive in your inventory (or mailbox, if your inventory is full) almost immediately.
Q: Do Tokens expire? What happens if I accidentally delete one? A: No, Tokens do not expire. They also can’t be deleted, so no need to fear accidentally trashing them.
Q: Can I stop my auction or receive a refund after it was purchased (for gold or real money)? A: All transactions are considered final and auctions cannot be cancelled, so make sure you’re certain you want to proceed before listing or buying a Token. To help prevent unintentional transactions, you will be prompted to confirm your purchase or sale before it’s finalized.
Q: Is there a deposit? Does the Auction House take a cut of the Token seller’s gold? A: There’s no deposit, and the Auction House does not take a cut of the gold for WoW Token sales. The standard deposit is designed to dissuade players from spamming the auction house with items that aren’t selling, and the standard cut is designed to dissuade players from buying and reselling items for minuscule markups. These issues don’t apply to the WoW Token, so there’s no need for a deposit or cut.
Q: Will each game region have its own WoW Token exchange? Will everyone in a game region have access to it? A: Each game region—Americas (including ANZ realms), Europe, Taiwan, Korea, and China—will have its own shared WoW Token exchange. We’ll share additional details at a later date.
The Raids and Dungeons Live Developer Q&A will be starting soon. We’ll be liveblogging the Q&A in this post!
Realm first titles are not likely to come back. Realm first achievements moved away from personal achievements and went over to guild achievements.
Gear progression is a core factor in progression, over time it will allow you to continue to progress if you’re stuck.
There’s no troll dungeon in the next patch. There are no trolls in Draenor, they are all Azerothian.
They’re going to stick to needing 2 tanks in general for raiding. Sometimes you’ll need 3 on mythic. If they would increase the number of required tanks then guilds would have to recruit for them right away, just so that they can raid again.
They do not feel BRF normal/heroic is not overtuned for smaller size raids.
There is nothing specific to announce for new quests from the inn from your garrison.
They’ve struggled to define the use of Heroic Dungeons, gearing up past 630 ilvl gear is very easy without even doing dungeons. They realize it’s a valid concern. You can still do challenge modes. The gear the daily CM quest rewards was updated in 6.1 to stay relevant.
Tuning 3 different difficulties has turned out well for the development team. In Highmaul the progression curve felt good on the different difficulties. Heroic progression focused guilds did not do normal Highmaul for long.
There are many changes to CMs this season: The reality is that the lack of collision before 6.1 were bugs. Players were not supposed to be able to skip content like they did. They’re still evaluating what to do with the CM ranks and whether or not the collision should be removed again.
The representation of tanks within raiding has become more stable. In high-end guilds tanks tend to reroll to min-max their composition, but the guilds still vary in their tank class usage.
In mythic mode there are a couple of encounters that are designed around having 3 tanks. Due to having the possibility with offspecs and gear working for multiple specs it makes it a lot more reasonable to design such encounters.
They moved away from just recoloring raid gear on different levels so that there was a differentiation between the difficulties and their rewards. It also gives players an incentive to try harder level content.
LFR gives better loot than heroic dungeons due to multiple factors: The one per week lockout and time commitment are two examples. They also still want to reward players for participating in LFR. By adding the reward more players are also interested in running LFR. Without it, the queue times could be longer.
They design raid bosses around heroic difficulty. After testing and tuning it they start thinking about how they can increase the difficulty for mythic, and reduce it for normal raiding. Sometimes after designing a fight they realize they designed a mythic fight and then reduce the difficulty for heroic and then for normal difficulty.
Their goal is diversity, not perfect balance on every encounter. If they would go for perfect balance they would have to remove certain class abilities and make encounters more boring. However they feel that for the overwhelming majority of players it does feel balanced. On average over the entire raid zone the classes and specs are equal. When it feels like it makes it a whole lot harder to do a fight without a certain spec for regular guilds, that’s the point they take another look at the fight or spec.
The goal of garrison missions and the gear they offer is to always offer useful gear for the type of content that you play. This means that if you’ve killed heroic bosses and you get a few mythic pieces of gear, it’s ok.
They are very happy with how the LFG tool has been used. They are going to continue to look at improving the system. (More filter options were asked about)
They are happy with how the encounters have turned out in Blackrock Foundry.
The kick player system is something they are looking at. A lot of the rules were added when the dungeon LFG system first went in patch 3.x. Since then a lot of changes have happened within the system. Now that loot is personal and there is no reason to kick someone during the fight (to steal loot), they can revise such rules.
There is no reason not to use personal loot right now, it is as equally rewarding as group loot/master looting. They are looking at improving the way personal loot feels and plays.
A community created raid would be interesting… but definitely not likely. They take pride in putting blizzard values into the design of their raids.
Their goal is to reduce the time between the final raid tier and the next expansion. Whatever the number of final raid tiers is, is determined by that goal.
The point of warforged gear, just like bonus sockets and tertiary stats remains the same. It’s an extra bonus, so even if you’re farming bosses you wouldn’t normally need loot from, you might get extra bonuses from rekilling bosses that otherwise would not provide any more useful loot.
They might make alternatives to just elevators in dungeons/raids.
They will work on providing meaningful loot tables in LFR.
The timewalking feature is something they are working on. They might be able to talk about it more in the not too distant future.
They don’t think raid cooldowns are too strong. They are not seeing guilds stacking certain classes for cooldowns.
They are keeping an eye on success rates on different types of groups in BRF. But players have to keep in mind that normal BRF fights are tuned around having normal HM gear.
Blizzard enjoys the current community driven race for world first. They would like to leave it as is.
Mythic dungeons are still an interesting idea. They have nothing concrete but they still are looking for a way to make dungeons interesting later in an expansion.

Harrison Jones Change
Getting Harrison Jones as a follower has just gotten easier! You will just need the 6 quests from Harrison Jones to get him as a follower now.
“Exploration Mission Master” removed from “Don’t Call Me Junior” meta achievement. UI not updated until a client patch. #HarrisonJones
We understand there is a lot of confusion about the removal of conquest points from Grand Marshal Tremblade and High Warlord Volrath, so we’d like to explain the reasoning behind it.
Our primary goal with Ashran was to create a zone where two factions were competing against each other throughout the zone. The average visitor in Ashran has two motivations: earn 200 conquest to fulfill the Ashran bonus portion of their conquest cap, and kill the faction boss for their daily chance at loot from the Gleaming Ashmaul Strongbox. Prior to 6.1, players could earn that conquest by either killing the faction boss or by doing events. We were allowing the same reward to be earned at two different places at the same time.
This setup does not encourage competition. It encourages collusion. As a result, an implicit truce had emerged between the factions, where the Alliance claimed victory in the Road of Glory while Horde wandered the event areas unopposed for conquest. Both sides earned their reward in an efficient manner without any fighting. But Ashran is not a place for truces. Ashran is a place for killing. We removed conquest from the bosses knowing full well this meant the Alliance would be forced to compete against the Horde in events for conquest. Furthermore, we knew that facing new opposition at events, the Horde would once again engage in the central road.
Of course, we acknowledge that killing a faction boss only to receive Aspirant gear isn’t very motivating. As a result, we’ll be removing Aspirant gear from the Gleaming Ashmaul Strongbox. That means it will always award either Combatant (ilevel 620/675) or Gladiator (ilevel 660/690) gear.
We are already seeing increased competition between the two factions in both events and the main road. In every Ashran instance, the population of both factions is tightly controlled to maintain equal numbers. Your faction has the opportunity to compete, but it is up to you to earn victory. Good luck and have fun!
