From what I’ve seen from Gitr’s WoW Blog readers, we have alts. Some of us have alts everywhere. How many of those are going dead because of the pain of not being able to share items, gold, or guilds? I have 7 or 8 toons collecting dust on Kargath because of Burning Legion. These are my original toons we are talking about. Gitr for crying out loud! Lonely, sad, poor Gitr. He’s still level 60 and wearing crappy gear.
There have been some issues of ganking on BL with some pretty bored level 70s, as Kinless pointed out yesterday. Although the probability of getting attacked higher up is still the same, the ability to escape, if that is your preferred method, gets better. Add that to the decreasing number of levels someone can have on you, adds to your safety in numbers if you’re running with guildies.
Now the topic of getting Buttered Monkeys going on a PvE realm is rolling around the BM forums. $25/toon for a transfer is quite a commitment, and one that will still leave toons on BL for sure. Some of us have leveled our toons to 30, and nearly all of us are over 24. For Frostr, that is only 29 hours of commitment, but others have over 100g and some good PvP stats.
Open for discussion for all: what would lead you to pay to transfer or re-roll on a new realm? Is $25 a hinderance?
