World of Warcraft: Mist of Pandaria $20 Amazon FS with Prime
 

Mist of Pandaria for 20 bucks from Amazon. Free shipping with prime.

$60 for collector's edition

http://www.amazon.com/World-Warcr...f+pandaria

Ordered! Thanks.

Not sure if I should get this now or if I should wait for collector's to drop to 39.99 again. I kind of want the mount that comes with the collector's edition.

Best expansion so far (in my humble opinion), and they do seem to release content much faster this time. The xpac only came out in september and they are already releasing the 2nd content patch in a few weeks. Definitely worth it at $40, and at $20 it's a no-brainer.

Cataclysm is $9.99 right now as well at amazon

worst expansion IMO. The game has been reduced to weekend at the zoo. Can't believe they still get people to pay the monthly fee for something that should be free.

Let me know when it's free to play online :p

You can pay $20 at battle.net account management page to upgrade to the "digital collector's edition". As long as you don't care about the physical stuff that comes in the collector's edition, go for it!

As long as you haven't played in a few months, get someone to send you a "Scroll of Resurrection" to invite you back to wow. Perks include a free upgrade to Cataclysm.

Ah that's cool, didnt know that

When pay by hours/minutes is an option. Monthly is not worth it for weekend warrior.

they lost another 400k subs last Q. but i still play on/off...my guild just doesnt raid anymore i keep it to socialize but might cancel it when month is up. ppl are getting tired of the game and move on.

I don't play because they made it where you don't need to play alot to be good. I could waste my weekend, but everyone can be good now. Kinda lame. I miss 40 man raids.

I agree in that it got too easy to get good gear. If I wanted easy there were already several games to choose from that allowed for that.

the game got to easy the last time i played which was the lich king expansion and game was no longer challenging nothing like how it was when it was 40 man raids in naxx or aq in original wow, even 25 man raids in ssc or black temple burning crusade expansion was better than all the welfare gear they give now

I haven't played this since wrath of the lich king, I'd much rather go play DDO, or LOTRO for my MMORPG fix, these are games where you buy quest packs one time, and it's free to play so come back whenever you like.

Agreed. This thing isn't even worth $20. $20 if there were no monthly fee, MAYBE.

This sounds like a marketing plug. You cannot be serious......... Wow died. I used to love the game, but it's done. Nothing to see here.

want to get this, but can't think of what to get for the $5 extra for the shipping lol.

Stupid question, but do I have to buy all the expansions to be able to play this version or do I just need the base+mists to play it?

It all went downhill from vanilla

i believe you need all leading up to current exp.

Burning crusade was the last decent expansion. That was the golden age of WoW

Which is more likely as a scenario:

1. Blizzard registered this user in 2007 and slowly built up the rep and post count just to use it for marketing in 2013

-- OR --

2. Some people have different opinions than your own?




Seriously now, if you say the game is dead, done, nothing to see here, why bother trolling in posts that clearly should be of no interest to you? Move along, it's about time you let go.

Some people who say they quit the game a long time ago obviously have too much time on their hands now as they keep on bi*ching about how bad this game is wherever they can.

This is why I've been browsing less and less on slickdeals as of recent. If you have even the slightest difference of opinion people have these crazy conspiracy theories.

I pop on WoW every now and then to check it out, and after getting MoP on the last $19 deal I agree. I think it's pretty solid addition. I didn't like what they did to talent tree but meh.

Also, I agree with what a previous user said. If you can only play on the weekends and even then only for a few hours a weekend that $15 a month stings.

Agreed on both. I understand the reasoning behind the new talent trees but I don't like the implementation of it. I wish we had more options. Even with "cookie cutter" builds in the old trees, you still had some wiggle room for those little perks you wanted. Here you have none.

About the monthly fee, well, $15/month (plus tax...) is pretty steep. However, if you pay for 6 months in advance I think it comes down to about $12/month. And if you keep an eye out for game time cards on sale, you can get it even lower.

I did the 10 free days of the expansion and liked it enough to wait for a deal, and this one I bought. To each their own.

I do agree the game is dying though. Way less activity than when I played 2 years ago.

I get so tired of all the haters of the "welfare gear." Grinding Valor Points at a 1k limit per week, when the typical items costs 2k+ certainly takes time. Just doing the Looking For Raids and the daily Heroic dungeon won't cap you. And the Looking For Raids mechanic only awards sub par gear as compared to regular raiding and heroic raiding. Complaining about easy loot is nonsense, go raid regular and heroic if you feel that way.

Looking for raid mechanic was introduced last expansion, and it is amazing. It allows everyone to be able to view the end game content that used to be only viewable by a very very small percent of raiders. So what you get "purple" gear from it, its still sub par to regular raiding gear. It still requires progression of running Heroics to get the appropriate item level. You shouldn't have to devote countless hours and days to progressive raiding just to see a glimpse of the end game content.

And for those who cry about 40 mans and LFR too easy... Again, raid Reg and Heroics if you wanna cry about LFR. And 40 mans? Pfft, I will never miss waiting in MC for hours on end trying to get everyone there. People who say they miss it, simply never did it. I've end game raided every xpac since vanilla.

Sooo, good deal, good game. Better than last expansion, so some hope left for this franchise.

Brawler's guild is also a nice perk to the expansion: gives those "solo'ers" of WoW some attention as well. Overall, I thought it was a pretty balanced and interesting expansion. Still a great game, and always something new to do IMO ^_^

GAWDDAMN IT, I JUST BOUGHT THIS DAMN THING YESTERDAY.

I bought this from Target after they price-matched Amazons original price. Is it possible to go back to Target and have them honor Amazons new price? (I know Amazon has a 2-week price guarantee thingy, but I don't know if Target has one, let alone guaranteeing a price-matched price)

(edit) yes, they did.

It's so funny to read someone who dislikes the state of the game right now so he stops playing then come to the idiotic conclusion that the game is dead. smh

It's fantastic that people who hate World of Warcraft feel the need to post their hate here. If you don't like the game, why do you care if it's on sale? You're not stopping people who like it from purchasing MoP.

joke game.

Thank you for your incredibly intelligent input. Rep'D :lmao:

Welcome. :lmao:

If you do love this game, you should buy it at day one. Do you know it is a subscription game? :lmao:

Feeling some nostalgia here. I sunk about 3 years of my life into this game. Almost lost my wife the 3rd year so stopped. But boy this game was so much fun in the beginning when everything was new and fresh and every starting area was filled with peeps. I think the people who disliked this game were those that did not start playing it when it was initially released. They really missed out. Also made some great friends in this game that I still play other online games with to this day.

November 23, 2004 is a date that I will never forget!

Brawler's Guild, hmmm. Must resist the temptation just to get a look at this expansion. Maybe when it's free in the fall I'll play the free month.

I agree if they are just spewing hate about the game. However, I think voicing an opinion that the game is now dead or past its prime is a valid point. If I was on the fence about picking up the x-pack and coming back to the game, I would want to know opinions before purchasing this just like any other product. I for one will pass on this, I'm looking forward to the new MMO that Blizzard has been working on since WoW used to be an amazing game. I hope they adopt a similar sales model as GW2.

Warning: Opinion ahead

Personally, I find that the game has changed so much, and in a good way. I no longer am in college and I no longer can devote an additional 30+ hours a week to a game like I could before. They've made changes so that a "hard core" player can still raid and play decently hard core, all the while also appeased the "casual" gamer group. They've added additional things to do in game, which again, caters to different groups. There's pokebattles, scenarios, LFR/LFD, quests can actually be pretty refreshing and fun. Check points when doing quests (which honestly helps it not be so daunting) - achievements, exploration things (lost artifacts etc), and Challenge Mode.

Of course there are things that aren't as good as well, like what they've done to the talent tree. But, supposedly, that's supposed to even the playing ground.

They've brought the factions together closer, so that on a PVP server, there will be more world PVP than there was in past xpacs.

The xpac was just released in Sept 2012, however, they're coming out with new additional content already. They will keep losing subscribers, but that's to be expected with any aging game, however, I'd say it's far from dead.

Much like everyone said, the game is too easy and making dailies a requirement to get gear from Valor is stupid. Many classes are broken and won't be fixed until next expansion. Plus as many stated it does not take a lot to be good and many numbers are based on gear, not skill. And I haven't even started on the loot system yet ......... :lol:

Mixed bag here, IMO. There's some positives, some negatives. The overwhelming need to do dailies I think is a big negative, but I did like the new zones. That said, I quit playing very early on. That's a relative statement - 3 level 90s, raid experience, exalted with most factions. This is the least amount of time I've invested into a WoW xpac by FAR.

Good price, mediocre product. It's been out a while, so if you don't have it yet, you're likely a returning player. This content isn't worth returning to, if you ask me. If you've quit, your life is probably better. Don't get sucked back in by this!

I agree with the requiring to do dailies.. boring, boring!

Honestly... "this" many years later, they are still able to charge $15/month (not including multi-month paying discounts)? I wish they dropped the standard monthly to $10 or even as low as $5.. but I guess they don't have to because they haven't done it yet (if ever?). Of course, F2P would be best, but doubt that would ever happen.

For everyone who is saying it's a requirement to do dailies: It's not. It's faster to earn valor that way, yes, but it's not required. You can still earn valor by doing heroics, scenarios, and raiding. Slower, but again, not required.

As for LFR/LFD and easily gearing up: They wanted to allow everyone to see the content, dungeons, and raids. Not just a select few. Back in Wrath and before that, there were many people who didn't raid because it just wasn't possible for them to. This now appeases both the hard core and casual crowd, where they both get to see content.

The game's not dead though, which is another reason I hate those who are misinforming people on the fence about purchasing this expansion pack. It's got the largest player base out there, and that's because it's subscription based. Sure, millions may have purchased Guild Wars 2, but how many of them are playing it as frequently as the average WoW player? WoW players are encouraged to play, because it they don't, they'll feel as if they're wasting their $15 for that month. It's also an extremely enjoyable game with fantastic end-game, unlike Guild Wars 2 which has hardly any end-game.

If you like World of Warcraft, buy this expansion pack. The battle chest is cheap right now, and this plus Cata will give you loads of content for you buck. Overall the entire WoW pack is less than $60 at this point, providing people with hundreds of hours worth of content for just $15 a month, if you're paying for individual months.

If you're in support of f2p mmos, that's great, but the only decent one out right now is Guild Wars 2, and that's because its developers were smart enough to make it f2p from launch. You either make it f2p from launch or don't make it f2p at all. WoW is not set up to be played using the f2p model, and Blizzard doesn't need to transform it into a f2p game in order to make money.

This, or 2 Moons?

Guy has over 600 reps with average number of posts = regular SDer, so he's not plugging anything. And I'm sure the game has changed but there still isn't any other game like it. Also, sharing an account with friends/fam makes the price ok. But you're pretty suspicious, so there probably isn't anyone you trust enough.. actually that's cold, sorry lol.

The only problem with this is that you still need to be revered in order to buy anything with these valor points... So yeah, for a while, dailies are a must unless you're willing to jump into raids with only LFR/Heroics gear, which any serious raider would try to avoid.
I'm done with the rep grind and I love the new commendations that you can buy now in order to expedite the process on your alts - should make it easier for anyone who wants a 2nd or 3rd raiding toon to jump into action.

So is it going to be free to play in fall ? It's an 9 year old game afterall

With almost 10 million paying subscribers... Why would they do that? Other games that are free can barely hold onto 1M players...

There's always upgrades as well that you can use to buy things with valor. As well as the Black Prince quest (do you even need rep for that to get your legendary gem?). I'm sure there are people who do jump into raids with only LFR/Heroics gear - I mean again, they've changed it so that casuals can raid as well and see content, and I've seen/pugged with many guilds who do have people who wear that sort of gear into raids. Their progression is slower, but it's still manageable for them.

Commendations are pretty awesome. I must agree on that.

Burning Crusade was the best upgrade that I've played. That was when gold was gold, you have to work for it. Now, veryone can get gold without putting in efforts. I missed the time when I can't find Fargo Deep or waiting forever to get my first mount. I used to travel by foot from Iron Forge to Wetland at lvl 17. First thing I did when I get to Wetland was to get the FP..LOL!! I was so happy when I got my first ride, no more stinkin running on foot.

Does anyone have a scroll of resurrection that they can send me?

If anyone has extras they don't want, I'll buy it off you :D
