A character with that name already exists

Sadface :frowning: Blizz plz save her

Dayglonecros - Grobbulus , signed in for eternity, plz halp

Kitsuragi-Grobbulus pls save

This happened to me on Grobbulus as well, Whipitfiend, I can’t log into that character specifically and get the “A character with that name already exists” error. Now that I am trying to login through a VPN as one user suggested to try and clear the issue (I have already waited a half hour for autologout as well as reset my UI) I am told that my account has been locked due to suspicious activity. How can I petition this/get access back to my character before launch tomorrow?

Pizzabox - Skyfury please help

Vathruss-Grobbulus still been having this issue for about 2 hours now maybe more

The same thing happens on my “Skyfury - Annhuuly” in Terokkar forest and died respawned the same where I died and couldn’t resurrect . did a quick relog client and I started getting the same error.

I have the same issue - Davari on Grobbulus

Same issue here

Mortii - Skyfury

still can’t login.

Repost to the bug report please (link above)

repost to the bug report please, the devs don’t normally read this section… and if it’s a server issue, apparently they need to be the ones to fix it (see my post above)

create a new character and play…

happen to my hunter Falarinaris in skyfurry as well and i can even whisper to my char with other char , this is scary
