Scripe (RL of Method/ GM of Echo) Admits Real Money Trading

Recommended Posts

Scripe, the Raid Leader of Method and Guild Master of Echo, admitted he was involved in real money trading with the Gallywix boosting community.

Blizzard recently suspended some members of the Gallywix boosting community that were involved in exchanging gold for real money.

Today, Scripe confirmed that he decided to buy gold directly from Gallywix instead of buying WoW tokens, and the agreed exchange rate was apparently 50 USD/EUR for 1 million gold, based on the following spreadsheet posted on Reddit.

In case the above tweet gets deleted.

For the World First Ny'alotha Race progression when there was no Corruption Vendor, Method needed to buy BoE items with the best Corruption Effects for millions of gold across all servers and transfer them to Tarren Mill.

The total expenses for BoE items and WoW tokens came to a whopping 128,473,245 gold, and you can find a list of all items the guild purchased here.

Core members of Method raid team have reformed as Echo and the guild is lead by Scripe.

Damn, looks like my post about Echo became relevant so soon. It certainly doesn't leave a good impression, and it happening just after reforming their guild.

Sketchy. Bet there's already massive arguments about it going on. On the one hand 'the system is broken, it's Blizzard's fault'. On the other, 'buying gold to get advantage is scum' (and there's little else in the game that is so clearly P2W). And then you get the fact that tokens are available, so does that even matter? And then they could have bought tokens, but went for the sketchier route instead. And then the fact they bought it from these Gallywix chumps as opposed to Random Chinese Farmer no. 8250285...

Hey, skip the reddit threads. Get your internet arguments right here.

Afaik, they did that because there is some limit on how much tokens one can buy per week. Looks like simply buying it from gold sellers was a faster option for them.

Huh,you're right. For anyone else that's curious there's a blue post at the bottom of the wiki page:

https://wow.gamepedia.com/WoW_Token

It goes on to say the 'overall maximum' was removed in 2017. I'm not 100% lear what particular maximum they mean by that, and the source is now a dead link, but I think they mean the last one -- a maximum of 10 tokens in your character's inventories at one time. That'd leave the limit of 10 tokens per week purchased for gold, for Method's purposes.

According to the higher up members of gallywix most of the top 10 guilds were RMT. Limit didn't do it due to them being banned in a previous tier for RMT which caused them to miss out on it but yeah I don't think this is a big deal considering RMT has been the worst kept secret in wow. Theres even comments from a former Blood Legion player who said they actively spoke to devs about doing RMT at blizzcon and people only got banned if they publicly advertised it and it only became an actual issue to blizz when they released the tokens.

And these guys get free beta keys.... so messed up! People who RMT should be suspended/banned regardless of their rank in the game. It's not fair and actually is a violation of their own terms by giving these players special privileges because they are top 10 in the world. Talk about an unfair advantage! Blizzard has no problem permanently banning or suspending players for less offences why should these guys be treated any different?

A good way to earn money, but not the easiest. It seems to me that the creators of the game do not care who to take money from. You will need to invest a lot of money to make this site work. It is not so easy to create such a game and make it popular, for this you need a good brain. To make the game attractive to your users, you need to make a convenient, simple site so that everything is clear to everyone. Plus, you will need to think about advertising so that people will know about your site. In quarantine, when my wife was out of work, I had to find side hustle urgently. I went the easier way, I started taking extra job as an accountant and did this work from home, for which I was paid by the hour.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
