A look at Death and Taxes and Arena titles
World of Warcraft‘s Death and Taxes guild are turning heads because they have apparently found a way to take advantage of the PvP arena 3v3 brackets current rule system.
The story is that members of the top ranked teams are sharing their skill with lower ranked PvP players. This way standings are raised and Armored Netherdrake and titles are easily acquired. This, of course, has lead to rampant success for many teams, and consequently, to a lot of protests in Blizzard‘s WoW Forums.
Death and Taxes’ defense is that they are simply using the rules and the tools that are given to them in order to succeed in the game. As for the selling of titles, WoW Insider reports that this is what was said in defense:
… we’re not TRYING to screw anyone. If we were annoyed enough at the casuals in this thread we’d make 10 more teams in the next week and fill up the top of the ladder. At this point all we’re doing is providing a service to some guild members who are willing to pay for it. It’s simple.
While a lot of folks can’t argue with the guild’s resourcefulness at finding ways to succeed, a lot are concerned that they might be breaking the World of Warcraft TOS by selling the titles. While we can’t really judge them for their actions at the moment, we’re sure you folks have a lot to say on the topic. Feel free to let your opinions be heard in the comments.
