A sensible Diablo Immortal player takes hidden World of Warcraft currency, converts it into generic Blizzard points, and uses it to turn his Necromancer into an unstoppable force that takes down pay-to-win “cash whales.”
If you’re into PvP, meet Naecabon, who probably wipes you out in a matter of seconds. At the time, you might have assumed that the only way someone could be this powerful was to use large amounts of real-world money to max out their gems, but in this case, Naecabon would actually be an “extraordinary powerhouse” with around $50,000 worth of converted World of Warcraft gold.
“Yesterday, June 22, 2022, I finished my project to use just over 600 million gold in World of Warcraft by purchasing WoW Tokens for Blizzard Balance to use to upgrade my gems in Diablo Immortal.” reddit (opens in new tab)It was announced on Friday.
Eventually, Naecabon was able to unlock four out of five of his Legendary gems’ Resonance bonuses, but stalled before unlocking the fifth and final one due to excessive cost. They use their newfound and almost unique powers to stand up to humans, especially Diablo Immortal publishers, and spend huge amounts of real-world money to level up their characters far beyond what any free-playing player can do. We’ve had it since launch.
“I thought it would be really funny to try to create a ‘whale’ character in the game using WoW Gold as the primary source of funding,” Naecabon said. Said. “Slam dunk to a cash whale as a ‘golden whale’ gives me a sense of ridiculousness.”
Naecabon’s “project” started as soon as Diablo learned that Immortal was coming to PC, which meant that WoW Token balances could be used in the Immortal store. Fortunately, they bought a bunch of World of Warcraft loot codes for a total of about $1,000 to $2,000 at various BlizzCons years ago, and the cards have been gathering dust ever since. Fortunately, although they had little real-world monetary value due to predatory scammers, they seemed to skyrocket in in-game value by as much as 800%.
With that in mind, Naecabon changed the codes in various virtual marketplaces – all legal and within WoW’s terms of service – adding them – for a metric ton of in-game World of Warcraft gold, which were then used to purchase World of Warcraft tokens, which were then later Diablo Immortal coins. converted to units and spent on 2,165 Elder Rift runs. Conclusion:
“As a Necro Whale I feel literally unstoppable right now. I’ve never fought another 1v1 player that even came close to beating me in my current gear/equipment and I level them up in seconds with or without whales. Really looking forward to my first encounter that puts me under control. I’m like that guy in 300 looking for my glorious death.”
Neacabon says you can catch them “dunking into cash flows like.” jtisallbusiness (opens in new tab) (who streamed on Twitch announced a $100,000 cash whale) with terrifying efficiency.”
“This is just laughing. When you see me fighting cash whales in Battlegrounds, know that I interact with them using World of Warcraft currency as my main source of funding.”
Unfortunately, Neacabon prefers whaling off the agenda and therefore does not stream or even host a YouTube channel for their getaways. And now that you know the name, you can be extra careful with the “golden whale.” Just be careful not to swim too close to their wake.
Meanwhile, Diablo Immortal players think they have bot issues.
