Ok, Now that I have talked about the Boss counter-part, I feel it's only fair to discuss his more favorable side, when KingsIsle's Answer to "Hulk" fights FOR you rather than AGAINST you. First off, let's review HOW to unlock him.(Keep in mind, unlike W101, completing these quests, achievements, badges, etc... DOESN'T GIVE YOU the reward item, but rather UNLOCKS IT FOR PURCHASE IN THE CROWN SHOP. His requirement is to defeat him 25 times as a prerequisite. Which leaves you with a few options to choose from. A. Wait for a friend to help you who IS a high level as to not just INCREASE the difficulty by spawning more monquistans (Which I remind you AREN'T the only mobs you fight as Gortez spawns in a few with him. B. Waste MUCH time soloing it as a lower level. Ok, I realize this isn't to hard but definitely is time consuming and you would think after nearly two dozen fights you would have at least one piece of his no auction/good gear (On 3 different characters with one recall per fight with the badge I still don't have one good drop that provides either talent or power which is in essence the definition of "No Auction Gear" but as I said before, to no avail. C. Wait MORE to be high enough a level to solo him to the point of one-shotting him.(I also thought of the idea of calling in for help but most the time no one will be on or willing and most people are maxed or playing on their max farming 2 hour dungeons so it still nullifies the point). This means REGUARDLESS of which route you end up choosing, the answer is always wait. Now once you get that done (Keep in mind most people would procrastinate in such a long task which I can totally harmonize with.) But there is also the fact that ONLY UNLOCKS HIM meaning you still have to BUY him with crown, meaning you can either waste MUCH MORE TIME on videos/quizzes or pay REAL MONEY to obtain him. We know that 2 purchases of $5 worth or 1 purchase of $10 worth crowns both get you 5,000 Crowns. And EVEN THAT isn't enough to buy EVEN THE WEAKEST (I call them Clone-Companions) as they are often clones of either your companion after fin or starter companion.) Which cost 5,995 crowns, Goronado costs wait for it...... 7,495 crowns and is ONLY good in Buck since other classes have better companions to use. This means that not only did we spend all that time farming the badge, we also have to spend OUR MONEY buying him. ($10 isn't enough meaning we need $15 worth) and EVEN THEN he is only going to leave you with a HARROWING 5 CROWNS LEFT AND he is only good in Buck. Just thought I should let you all know that this NEEDS to change because this also affects PVP catering to those who can pay-to-play (Plus the money to access the full game & get free PVP) as people who can't get him are stuck with Peter, Barney and Kobe as their main since they CERTAINLY can't pay around ANOTHER $20 worth for just a CHANCE at getting Baar, meaning with all that best pray you have a job. and that's INCLUDING the time maxing the buck

Gee, what a rant. Crown Shop, Pack & Bundle companions are one of the ways that KI makes it's revenue that goes into producing this game. Powerful companions like Goronado are going to be more expensive because of what they offer.
Your PVP complaint isn't valid as there are ways to beat Goro even with the companions you're stuck with.

I agree with you(I forgot your name but you're the person that made this post). I would like to point out that goro is good for all classes, and is one of the top companions in the game though. It would be nice if he was less than 7465 because that is just a little expensive.
