You have to admire the tenacity / lack of social responsibilities that a fella must have to manage to play thirty-six World of Warcraft accounts; me, I can’t even manage to play one. Gamer Prepared gets a few advantages out of this enterprise, he can run raids all by his self and is thus able to eliminate the need for social contact even in the popular MMORPG.
You might be wondering how much he spends on all that gaming action and what he gets out of it. Read on to here Gamer Prepared explain.
A lot have asked me, why create so many? The main reason is to invade Stormwind and Ironforge when they reach top level. I’m sure the Alliance will put up a big fight when that happens. We’ll see how it goes. If they don’t make level 70 before Wrath of the Lich King, then it will be at level 80. That is my main goal. That will probably happen after I’ve got some PvP gear from the battlegrounds. I’m also planning to do some 25 and 10 man raid instances but that is secondary to my PvP goal. Of course I’ll be doing arenas too to build up PvP gear but I’m not expecting to do that great there because I’m way behind in gear right now. I need to get to level 70 first, then level 80 and by then I will probably have all green gear while most others have been doing the battlegrounds and arenas.
It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule. Not bad considering I’m looking at it like it’s a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft.
When Wrath of the Lich King is released, I plan to be at the store when it opens and will purchase 36 copies of it. With tax, it should be about $1500 for all of them. Then the shaman are on their way to level 80 along with the priest, druid and mage.
Best of luck with your quest, Gamer Prepared, with all those costs it would seem that you aren’t doing this 24/7 – unless you make a living selling gold. As for me, I will continue to deny myself the pleasure of WoW, because I know that once I go in I may never come out and the end result will be an assload of computers, a yearly $5711 subscription bill, the breakdown of my marriage and the loss of my job.
