Prior to the prepatch, a deleted character that was level 50 or above would be available for restore forever.
What is the character new level for being able to permanently retain a character for restore?
The support article has the old table in it.
It looks like that article was updated 2 days ago, Nok. I can double-check but I think, based on that, it’s still 50.

Do you know how it would affect level 50-60 characters that had been deleted prior to the patch? Are they still available to be restored to a new level in the 20-25 range?
I do not, and definitely something that I’ll bring up.

Alright. So the article is accurate. Any character level 50+ should continue to be available for undeletion.
This shouldn’t impact any older characters that were 50+ prior to the squish though, as the character itself isn’t actually squished until it is logged in. So basically, you couldn’t log it in until it was undeleted.
Once you undeleted it and logged it in, a level 50 character would become a level 21. At that point, if it was deleted, it would be subject to the current limits and be purged after 90 days from when it was deleted this time.

I should have done my character cleanup before the patch dropped. C’est la Vie!
