Questions

Where do the prices in WoW: Forever come from?

From two sources: Blizzard's own data, which it publishes for every WoW: Forever auction house once an hour, and scans by players who use the GoldCap addon and Companion, which add the minutes in between. Each price says which: "Blizzard data", a number of scanners, or both, and how long ago.

One troll listing or one odd scan can’t set a price

A price comes from the cheap end of the whole shelf, weighted by quantity, not from the single cheapest lot, so one absurd listing does not decide it. A handful of very cheap units far under a busy shelf are skipped too. When several players scan the same item in the same hour, a scan that disagrees with the rest is set aside, and each account counts once. A price from a single scan says so: it is marked as one scanner’s, an early read, until another player’s scan or Blizzard’s hourly data confirms it.

Does GoldCap work in the WoW: Forever beta?

The addon’s Forever build is being tested in the beta: it scans the auction house, prices tooltips and bags, and posts from the Sell tab. Beta prices are kept apart from launch prices.

When do prices appear?

Blizzard's data covers every server type and is refreshed once an hour. A scan with the addon adds a price within minutes. Beta prices stay with the beta.

Are Forever prices mixed with Classic Era or Retail?

No. Forever prices come only from WoW: Forever's own auction houses, never mixed with Classic Era or Retail.
