Cloned Characters - Confirmed Not Deleted From Database

Theres a post where someone that hasnt logged into their account or taken their characters to TBC etc getting their characters back by doing the restore character option. They are able to login to Classic Era Servers Vanilla

Check Reddit for more information - people that havent logged their character since vanilla classic are restoring their characters through restore deleted character option

While some people might see some old characters from prior to the split, not all will, and you wont necessarily see all of the characters if you can. I know I saw 2 out of about 8 characters, both were alts I didn’t play much. So while yes some old characters might be out there, it seems rather random, and for the characters that are there, who knows if any of these are actually related to the clone service, or are some artifact from something else.

worked for another person

“Hey can confirm this just worked for me, had this character on classic and never cloned it. Just restored, I am going to try another character I had in a few days when the cool down resets”

He has image proof in that reddit post.

LIARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRS

“All clones that were not activated before July 26, 2022 were deleted. Customer Service cannot restore deleted clones or transfer active clones to different game versions.”

More like a white lie, deleted as in flagged as deleted i’m guessing and they aren’t letting GM’s restore them. I honestly dont care blizzard just let me clone again!

Nah they said mine was permanently deleted after I paid for my clone… and said they wouldnt be able to restore it.

this is bs

Requires you deleted the characters before the clone servers was active. That’s the only way you can see that option. Its why the character restore option works. Also I think the character needed to be above like 40 to still be there years later.

This makes a lot of sense actually.

My discord is blowing up about this, one of us brought back an alt

Bumping for visibility. They need to either give us the ability to restore some kind of past snapshot of our old characters, or let us copy our 60s trapped on Wrath Classic.

Whiles this would be nice, I doubt it will happen. We asked about this months and months ago, but to no avail.

Overall I think it may actually be healthier for the game to not give us clones back… Sounds strange but makes sense when you think about it because if we gotta level again (I have) then you gotta interact with the world, you gotta raid again, you gotta PVP again, you gotta do all of it over…

In turn the world is more alive (like now)

The service to direct them to another client no longer exists.
Yes some people have their deleted characters on the progression server. This doesnt mean s*** though lol.

Didnt work for me.

Same. Wish there was a way to replicate this. Odd that it’s only some people and not others.

No thanks! I suspect a rickroll
