Gold Rewards Nerfed in Nightmare Incursion - Season of Exploration

Hey there, adventurers! Welcome to our latest blog post on the Season of Discovery in the popular game World of Warcraft. In the recently launched Phase 3, a thrilling addition called Nightmare Incursions has taken the open world events by storm. However, there have been some changes to the gold rewards associated with these quests, causing quite a stir among the player community.

Gold Rewards Nerfed

Initially, completing the Nightmare Incursion quests proved to be incredibly profitable, with some players reporting earning several hundred gold in just one evening of gameplay. This unexpected windfall was not part of the developers' plans, and as a result, the gold rewards from these quests have been significantly reduced.

According to Josh Greenfield, the Senior Game Producer of WoW Classic, there was an unintentional issue with the mathematical calculations, leading to an excess of gold being rewarded. Although completing Nightmare Incursions still offers a decent amount of gold, it pales in comparison to the early rewards that were available.

This nerf has left many players feeling frustrated and at a disadvantage. Numerous complaints and expressions of discontent have flooded platforms like "X" and Reddit. One concern that players are raising is the potential impact on the Season of Discovery's economy. Previous phases already saw a surge in gold due to increased rewards for quests completed at the maximum level. Now, players are wondering if those who benefited from the initial lucrative Nightmare Incursion rewards will have an unfair advantage over others.

Blizzard has a strict stance against Real Money Transactions (RMT) and took steps to prevent the distribution of Dungeon and Raid items through gold bids in Phase 2 of the Season of Discovery. Increasing gold rewards seemed like a logical way to counter RMT, especially with the implementation of the Discoverer's Delight buff, which boosted quest gold rewards by 300%. However, it seems that this buff inadvertently affected the Nightmare Incursions quests, leading to the unintended excess gold rewards.
