Classic live access on 27th Aug question, NOT a beta question

[Dottie-guldan]

Are you looking to log in to BFA and Classic. at the same time, or multiple instances of Classic at the same time?

All of them, I do a bit of auctioning and want to keep BfA open and maybe trade some items via the cross faction AH by myself in Classic if I want to.

I have two active EU accounts and want to open:
Classic EU and BfA EU
Classic EU and Classic EU

using one Blizzard account.

That going to be a Development question and not ( currently) as CS question. I’d personally would suggest posting in Classic , as well as hitting up the developers on Twitter.

Good luck.

Just to make sure, you know there is no interconnectivity between BFA and Classic.

[Dottie-guldan]

Yeah, I’ve read that.

Unless, I’m confusing Classic with BC, I recall running two instances of Classic on separate wow accounts just for moving stuff cross faction via the neutral AH.

I believe there may be still a limitation for the current launcher where you can only have one instance of it active. It has an option to shut itself down after launching a game which enables you to restart it and launch another wow license. There was no launcher back in classic.

Looking at the launcher recently I can see you have an account list for classic now so I should be able to open Classic twice if I pay for two warcraft accounts on one Blizzard account.

I don’t think it works this way. I’ve got EU and NA accounts but my account is NA based and I only have one listing for Classic (NA)

Best bet is to check https://account.blizzard.com/overview around launch time.

I have a few of questions again. It states “will be able to create up to three characters per World of Warcraft account.” not “per active World of Warcraft account” so is that active accounts or inactive ones too?

As others have said, everything needs to be active. It doesn’t make sense that if have WoW1 active and WoW2-8 inactive, you get 8x the benefits of people with just WoW1 active. If you have WoW1-8 active, then you get 8 Classic accounts (1 for each active account) and each Classic account will have three slots available.

Also, I’m not 100% on this, but I believe the three character limit is simply for the reservation period starting on the 13th. Once Classic is live two weeks later, you will get more slots. I believe vanilla had 9 slots (Edit: per realm) at launch, so it would follow that 9 would be available. Again, not 100%, but it’s likely this way to prevent people from name camping.

Yes. The three character limit it just for reserving names. If it’s like Vanilla, it will be 50 characters per account once Classic launches.

Yes, I meant 9 slots per realm. 50 total.
