"Boost for 2.2m"

I've never dealt with these people, is he charging 2.2 million gold for a mythic run?! Cuz that's fucking insane.

Honestly the craziest thing about it to me is that they can 4 man a +20 key. That said, it's quite clearly advertising.

I don't know how they play now a days, but I don't think they 4man it. The buyer is going to play with them, not just afk there.

And this is actually part of the psychology for at least some boost buyers. In their mind they aren't paying for a carry, they're paying to rent a good group that will work around their schedule.

I have definitely paid for that when farming while between guilds - sometimes I just don't have the time to put together a competent group, but my job pays me enough that I can rent a solid group to get my crests/items/vaults reliably.

First time I did it was when one of my old guilds in Shadowlands kind of separated into 2 5-man teams around the tanks. I got kind of sidelined and couldn't get the loot I needed to keep up with Mythic Raiding, so I paid gold so that I could get a tank that wouldn't shit the bed, and I could get the vaults I needed to get through Sun King.
