Now you know what to get!
27th November 2010
Okay, everyone. We’ve all had time to get used to the whole 4.0.3 patch now so I think we’ve seen just what it is that’s needed out there. From what I’ve been able to observe, if you ever have trouble getting into a raid, dungeon, or any other instance, bring a tank. Tanks are getting really scarce right now, and everyone wants one. Nerfing healers has put these guys up at the top of the most desirable list, and we have the chance to capitalize on this.
If you have been wanting to buy wow accounts, now you know exactly what to go for. Especially if you have a healer who is now pretty much a door stop. Pals are taking the lead on the healing game right now from what I’ve been able to figure out. These serious revamps really make it hard to figure out just what’s going to be useful and what should sit in the scrap pile for a while.
Anyway, beefing up a tank would be in your best interests if you want to get into a group any time soon.
Thankfully, Toonstorm always has a really good selection of them available with some nice alts in case you get bored with the tanking. And who knows just what’s going to happen when the full expansion comes? There could be more nerfs, more buffs, or something even weirder planned. It’s hard to say with Blizzard. I know they’ve been announcing all sorts of things about Cataclysm for, well, forever really. But I get the feeling that they have something else that they aren’t telling us yet. Some sort of hidden ace that will have us all drooling yet again. They are tricky like that, after all.
Anyway, prices are going to get a little ugly shortly, especially for tanks. On the other hand, they’re dropping like mad for healer classes, and it’s no big deal to get one of them on the cheap, then respec it. If, that is, you can find a use for a priest right now.
Good luck with that.
What are you waiting for? Get a move on!
30th August 2010
If you’re not sure what I’m talking about, I mean buy wow account. If you have any intention of doing so you’ll really want to get it done well before Cataclysm drops. I say this for a number of reasons.
First and foremost prices always go nuts around release dates. While we don’t yet know when the big C is coming out, we know it can’t be too far off. They’ve already been beta testing and we’ve seen the box art. Not much other than the actual content remains to be announced. This is what Blizzcon will be all about this year. SC 2 is already on shelves (or was anyway, seeing as it took almost a week before the local stores were able to restock) and Diablo III is so far into the future it is only barely on my radar. That means they’re going to focus very closely on WoW, which makes me really pleased. But after it’s announced you know that prices for accounts will start to spike pretty sharply around that time. It’s better to get one (or 3 if you’re smart and take Toonstorm’s deal where you get discounts for alts) now while prices are still low to moderate. Just before and after relase date things will get ugly.
Flip side to that is that the new races won’t be represented on any site for a while after release. Your other option is to buy wow account after you start seeing them show up.
Or really you could do both so you can take advantage of the new content while later enjoying the goodies that the new races bring to the table.
Another thing to keep in mind is that Blizzard doesn’t much like anyone making money on WoW that isn’t Blizzard. They may decide to put in a few little tweaks that allow them to hunt down anyone who buys an account. While I can’t off the top of my head think of a way to do this, that doesn’t mean it can’t be done.
Most of the time I’m not worried about this. As long as I’m buying from a well established site that comes with all sorts of guarantees I can’t imagine anything happening. Those jokers on Craigslist and eBay are another matter entirely. They’re probably licking their chops about this right now, but don’t be pulled into their promises. It just isn’t worth the risk.
Yet another round of content for you to buy accounts for
30th June 2010
Just when you think that they’ve run out of ideas…
There are two really noteworthy things that I’m going to talk about today. The first one you can buy wow account to access, the second you can’t. Both of them are way too important to not mention.
The first is the new content that they dropped with the 3.3.5 patch. They’ve opened up a brand new raid dungeon for us to play around in. The official details are a little sparse right now, but the new area is called the Ruby Sanctum, and it promises wonderous riches to all who would brave its dangers. The story is pretty cool, too. Basically, the red dragonflight was in charge of a sort of UN of dragons, keeping the peace, and trying to preserve life in Azeroth. Suddenly, the Ruby Sanctum, their headquarters, is completely silent and no one has been able to contact them via any means. Guardposts are empty, and the hearth fires have died out. Just what waits inside is still a bit of a mystery, but it’s going to be more than worth the while to play it through. After all, the fate of the last clutch of red dragon eggs hangs in the balance inside, and we all know that where there’s dragons, there’s treasure.
The second big piece of news is that the Cataclysm beta has gone live! Obviously it wouldn’t be wise to buy an account then attempt to get in on it, but it would be seriously cool to get in on the next chapter of WoW before retail release. Actually, it’s impossible to get in on it unless you get an invite from Blizzard themselves. It’s opt-in only, and you don’t get to pick. Here’s hoping that some of my faithful readers get the notice and can jump in. Post a comment if there’s any inside info that you can share with me! I know, NDAs are a bear, but there have to some ways to get a little bit of info out.
Anyway, if you don’t have a level 80 yet, now may be the time to buy wow account so that you’re ready both for the content already launched, and for the good things to come. The end of a world doesn’t come along every day, after all. You don’t want to miss out when it hits.
An update with reasons to buy a new account
21st April 2010
Hey out there. I’m happy to say that I have better news this time around. No more gloomy, at least for now.
As we all know the newest patch went live a few weeks ago, and 3.3.3 is making a huge difference in the PVP world. One major change is the reward for honorable kills. I’m all about these, myself, and now that the honor bonus has been bumped to 200% I’m really stoked.
The other thing that will affect anyone looking to buy wow account is the new Random battlegrounds option in PvP. It’s restricted to level 80, which means your trusty 75 DPS won’t make the cut, but if you pick up a new account you’ll have a great time of it. Basically, you get in the queue and when your group comes up, you get dropped into a completely random field (like the name implies). This means no time to prep or plan a strategy, you just go in as is and hope for the best. The real upside is that you get some serious bonuses if you take on the randomness. I haven’t had the pleasure yet, but I’m looking forward to the chance.
The other changes were all pretty minor. Ranges for buffs have been increased to 100 yards, which is a nice little change for those parties that get spread out (like mine usually do). They’ve also tweaked some of the powers and boss abilities for balance purposes. Same old, same old.
Another great piece of news is that they’ve opened up the registration for the Arena Tournament. There’s an exclusive title for the winner(s), and a neat pet you can win, too. The qualifier should be later this month, but they may have to move it out a little depending.
Of course, your bought accounts don’t do you any good here since you make a level 80 at the time, but it’s still a good romp.
Now, the best news is that the announcements haven’t had much of an effect on account prices. Even so, I have to recommend that you stick with safe sites that you know, like Toonstorm since there will be a lot of scam sites that crop up.
Take it easy and keep safe out there
Some refresher points on buying wow accounts safely
24th February 2010
Hey everybody. I hope you’re all having fun with the latest 3.3 build. It’s keeping everyone around here running all over the place. Now that the actual Lich King battle is released, you’d be amazed at how many people here are wanting to buy WoW account. They just don’t want to wait that long to try it out.
With that in mind, I figured a refresher was in order on what to do to avoid being scammed or banned when buying an account. The last thing anyone needs is to lose tons of cash or find themselves banned from WoW outright. It just puts a serious kink in everyone’s mood.
Here are some of the best tips I can give you:
First, only deal with trusted, reliable places. Yeah, you can find accounts on eBay or craigslist at rock bottom prices, but there are absolutely no guarantees with them. How can you hold somebody accountable if they can just fade away after you’ve sent the money? Craigslist is especially bad for this. Stick with sites that are acredited by the BBB and other such services.
Second, always always always look for a money-back guarantee. These things are the best insurance you can have, because it means the site is taking extra pains to avoid any problems with the transaction. I’ve only seen these a few places (Toonstorm most noticably) and I’ll never point anyone to a site that won’t carry one.
Third, look for live people. It’s one thing to complete a transaction via email, but a site that’s willing to put you in touch with live human beings shows that they care that much more. Besides, email addys can be made and abandoned with ease, and there won’t be a paper trail to follow if that’s all you’re working with.
Last but not least, don’t do anything that will draw attention to your purchased account. Don’t use it to buy gold or powerlevel further if you decide you wanted an 80 instead of a 70. Too much of that kind of activity on an account is a huge red flag for GMs.
So, there you have it. I hope this info helps some of you newbies out there avoid the pitfalls of account buying
Buy WoW Accounts In a 3.1 Patch World
30th April 2009
It’s been a great month 3.1 finally came out and I and everyone I know has been living it up in Ulduar!
Something I’ve come to realize since I started this blog, and paying attention to people/characters and who’s buying wow accounts, is that different people expect and look for very different things when they buy wow account.
Case and point:!
I had a guy come into my shop earlier this week and we got to talking about wow accounts and he said he had leveled a few characters up to around 55 but was really just looking to pickup a nice decked out level 80.
So of course I mention Toonstorm to him, it’s a site we’ve suggested before and they’ve got a big selection – something he could use.
He asked me if they ever scam;
I replied; “Toonstorm Scam?” “ha!”
As ridiculous as it was to me it was a very real concern to him because he hadn’t purchased anything like that before. So I classify this guy as someone who would be interested in buying but under normal circumstances would find it very difficult to find a safe secure place to buy them. So of course I try to tailor the blog to fit the needs of people who have those generalized questions about the process and who to trust; and in fact I have shaped the blog to a large extent to cater to those people.
Now that’s just one example – I also spent 2 hours last night raiding with my guild (They’re local so we shoot the poop afterwards normally) and found out afterwards that 2 of the guys have gone through a few different accounts and are regulars at buying – and they look for a whole different set of criteria than the first guy! These guys are pro’s and totally know who’s safe and who isn’t. They have a few sites they frequent and specifically look for specs and builds that they think they’d enjoy playing and when the price seems right they snatch the account up. These guys might be a little to advanced for me to try and make this blog appeal to them but it’d be exciting to write about. The point is I realized there’s a few different types of wow account buyers and in the future I’m going to be trying to expand the scope of the blog to include some other aspects other than purchasing safely, ie purchasing safely and cheaply, purchasing safely and choosing from a larger selection etc.
We’ll see how I fair!
Thanks for ready and stay tuned for the next one!
