the lowest price of coal in this auction is between 80-80.2 million

[NagatoYuki_]

Someone bid 80 million and then lost. And the bid of 80.2 million won. So the reserve price seems to be in this range.
Judging from the feedback from various forums, it seems that the price is the same level of the four servers. So it seems that 4 servers share a total of 5000 slots instead of 5000 slots per server.

Outrageous, to put it simply.

Not really.

In WoT Black Market "good" offers for silver went for about triple the ask price. 

So 80m to 25m ask price is perfectly within range or just above expectations but take into account WoWs has MUCH more friendly economy than WoT.

[DecisiveTime]

every servers' lowset winning bid currently  is (80 000 000 ----- 81 000 000).

It doesn't look credible.

This seems to be a whale only price. Also NA and EU limits are virtually the same. Either there was a common prize pool across servers, or WG artificially rigged the “calculations”, at least we would understand why a few lines of code takes more than 30 minutes to execute.

Does that make me a whale? I've not spent a single euro on wows for the last.. 4-5 years?

Well if the 5k winners was the total naumber for all servers i would not be suprised at all.

So if thats true why did I read that each server has his own auction?

You have like 20,000 battles, and probably the Missouri, too. I also was able to bid 80M, but that was much beyond my personal valuation of 100k coal.

It seems 5000 was the total number and 1250 on each server.

I do, but I almost never play her. Quite nice to use in ranked occationally though. But hardly needed for money...

 

edit: in fact less battles than expected

Well at least I'm not the only person that understood that wrong.

It kinda makes a difference if there are 1250 Winners possible on EU server or 5000.

 

However thanks for the clear communication @ Wargaming

You don’t have a couple of essential coal ships, like Jean-Bart, Pommern or Marceau. It seems you somehow grind much less coal and much more silver than I having a premium account.

If there are 1250 winner per server, it is impossible for the lowest price of each server to be around 80 million.

Communication was not clear, I deduced it from the same winning  limits on NA and EU, and from the time of the results calculation and the vague description on WG’s site.

So which should I get? :D

I generally don't "grind" for either. I just play the game and get what I get. Usually picking "more resources" crates as long as I remember to do so... But clearly silver is not an issue tbh.

Btw if you check my ships, I have premium camo on Minotaur - bought with saved-up-dubloons.

You can only get Pommern or Marceau from my list, both of them are fun, Marceau is more competitive, but you have the Smaland for competitive purposes, Pommern is Kurfurst with torps, if you like Germans with torps, then take the Pommern, if you like fast DDs then the Marceau, if neither then hold onto your coal waiting for something of your taste.

 

I can imagine that you can gain free doubloons, I just expected f2p players to not swim in credits.

I suspect all of them are okay. I prefer to get tier 10 if possible if any ships. Thank you for the insights anyways.

Doubloons are slow, like for everyone, but once you outfit your favorite ship with it, the credits never stop coming... Granted it's not like the insane multiplier of Missouri, but as long as every game is okay profit, what else does a poor guy need? And then you get the occational 1-14 days of free prem anyways.

 

I fell down to 475 mill though. I feel poor 

Buying Riga and then grinding her to Petro in about 12 hours didn't help for the money situation.

[I_am_Black]

it is not credible that ALL FOUR servers have similar winning price.
If it is 5000 offers for each server, I don't believe that there are soooo many players who can offer this price.
If it is 5000 in total and 1250 for each server, I still cannot believe that the top 1250 players gave the similar price.
As far as I know, EU and CIS server has almost twice active players of that in ASIA and NA server, but the lowest winning price is quite similar and it is almost impossible to have such a coincidence.
On this basis, I think wargaming has set the lowest bid price of 80m.

No, if it is true than there was only one auction all servers combined.

80 mil???

What is 80 mil?

[Spartan_Renegade]

I still don't think I got my money's worth with 100k coal but atleast I'm not one of those suckers who bid double of what I did or an outrageous amount like 1 billion lol

See picture below. WG didn't make that clear. They use "the same". Usually it can be understood as every server has 5000 slots. However, it can also be interpreted as all servers sharing the same pool.

 

[Miscommunication_dept]

Well now we know.

 

I have 150 million credits  waiting for 10,000 steel. Come on WG, lets do this!
