Edit : Incidentally a conservative estimate of the physical gold required based on todays prices for the blanks and the phylacteryweave with 100k per craft from a person able to actually craft it is 5,125,000 gold.

I ran 9 toons in Naxx this afternoon -got approximately 125 [Death's Bargaining Chip].
I just burned half and got jack &*!@. Nothing that gets me even one step closer to actualy completing the set or even ONE item in my desired T3 set for that matter.

Then smelling a rat, I sought out a vid on YT to see what i could expect.
I found one first search that mirrored my experience.

I believe Blizz has kept the RNG chance really !@#$ because all those whales that pissed away millions of gold on their set on the BMAH will cry cuz now there is a more proactive way to do this (in theory) and it doesnt need more money/gold that yer monthly subscription.

A way that doesnt require you to spend gold or buy WOW Tokens and spend gold (thus compromising the sales of WOW tokens).
I (/Nobody outside Blizz) has seen the stats and maybe there is a corrolation between ppl with BMAH T3 sets and Buying WOW Tokens.

Eitherway I think i have more to do in my life that piss away this sort of time to beat an RNG algorithm that is statistically scripted to not give you jack $%^&!

I smell the hand of the same thinking behind Diabolo Mobile! Keep droppnig coins in the slot to get the %^&* you want.
This mechanism is a way to encourage ppl to spend cash on Wow Tokens to then go buy all the [Phylacterweave] (and maybe Righeous Orbs) because the actual method of farming will steal your time, life and soul. With no guarantee of actual success at the end of it.

$%^&. Even if you did go to the BMAH for yer T3 Set at least you know what winning yer auction gives you the item.
I ran 9 toons today. Think about those ppl with only 1 or 2/3 toons...
The sence I have after seeing the drops and doing a little mental arithmatic is that you can commit to this activity for the next 5 years and never end up with what you want.

Description

I doubt I need to give you the entire spiel about scourgestones, {name}, so I will cut to the chase. I am VERY interested in growing my collection, and you are VERY interested in what I have to offer. Corruptor's Scourgestones are by far the most powerful, so we can talk business if you only have a few. And don't tell the Argent Dawn about this! It's our little secret, right pal?
