Jokerd accomplished the World First level 60 in WoW: Forever yesterday and he has now discovered that quests can not give Gold. At max level, quests in Era and Retail give bonus Gold instead of experience, but in WoW: Forever that appears to not currently be the case. Jokerd claims to have messaged a WoW developer, who replied that this change is intentional, with a possible Weekly quest giving a random amount of gold instead.
While Blizzard hasn’t formally commented on this yet, it will be a while before other players reach max level to check for themselves. Recent changes like the adjustment to Auction House listing prices and the addition of BMAH vendors, who provide an unofficial market cap on some reagents, show Blizzard is clearly trying to moderate the economy. Until more players reach level 60 and begin playing through endgame content, though, we can’t know the full impact this will have on overall gold flow.
