Blizzard developers love to sneak in secrets for people to try to solve and a 9,999,999 gold painting—the maximum amount of gold a single character can even have—was a clear tease for anyone who has seen their tricks before.Cravitz Lorent, the “shady art dealer” in Midnight’s Murder Row dungeon, says the price is fixed “unless you can convince fate otherwise” when you ask him why that particular painting costs so much. This, as you might expect from this being a news story meant to convey things that have happened, was just the clue that WoW player and secret-finder Christa (via Wowhead) needed to figure out the solution to the puzzle.In the same dungeon there exists a fortune teller named Soothsayer Sargle. He graciously gives out bad fortunes every day, like “Yes, it was all your fault,” and “Avoid all gnomes.” Each one is added to your inventory and can be traded to other players. “I figured what if I had all these fortunes in my bag already,” Christa says in a video explaining her thought process.
