0g-5000g take around 25hours if you know how to play, so why is it hard to get one? is it worth it? yeah. why? you can earn money faster from daily q.

'Is the price too high? Yes. Does it encourgage gold buying? Yes. Is the epic flying mount worth it? No."

you are wrong on every single point

Well, you convinced me.

You can get your epic flying mount and full FSW, I know I did on my priest. Sure it took like 2 months of dailies to get the money but I did it and it was worth every copper.

Most agreed with you when BC was new. I posted on this site people making this claim were nuts.

I was right: person gets first epic flight, person kicks self blue for putting it off. I go along to watch it happen.

"Is the price too high? Yes."

Quests completed after hitting 70 give half the required gold.

If you spent minutes to do two dailies, every day, it would take four months for the rest of the gold. That's if the two dailies are your only non-quest source of income. Simply vendoring the unneeded quest rewards bumps it up quite a bit.

I hate dailies with a passion, but they're there. Use 'em.

"Does it encourage gold buying? Yes."

Everything in every MMO does.

"Is the epic flying mount worth it? No."

Saves time*, increases gold production, is fun.

Leveling tailoring and making the FSW set (it's great stuff) shouldn't be costing you gold.


*Seriously. Flight paths are never, ever less time. Sometimes they take twice as long. They also cost money.

@imparush

It's one thing to say "it's easy to..." Prove it. Lay out exactly how to make 5,000 gold in 25 hours. I will be waiting with pen and paper ready, and if you prove to be correct, I will have a flying mount tomorrow.
