This character kept it as it seemed more fitting for a Warlock to do so. My Worgen Hunter on the other hand, did not approve of such and thus removed hers.
Oddly enough, my husband’s DH did the quest chain at same time as me and kept his Gift. But the whispers have yet to start for him. Don’t know where to pity him or envy him, lol.
UPDATE: I was just standing here in Dalaran while listening to the whispers and the Eye keeps disappearing for a brief nano-second. I can see my horns flash into view every few seconds. Wonder if this is related to the whispers.
FURTHER UPDATE: We just realized that my hubby’s DH has lost his Gift – he no longer shows the Eye or the buff. He swears he didn’t do the quest chain to remove it. And I know he had it last night. This is getting very odd.
I have no idea, however I’d expect Trust to be linked to Account and not Character. But of course that’s no guarantee. I wouldn’t be surprised if that came as an afterthought…
Yeah race change is, as I understand it, internally ‘create a new character with such and such characteristics’ whereas a boost is ‘new level X with Y quests completed’.
The difference being the racial/class specific quests are difficult to retrofit cleanly. Please, though, DO NOT QUOTE ME ON THIS.
edit: If you lose Forum privs I guess you could try asking accounts for an undo or something.
Yeah, I’d agree. Though my comprehension of the internals of the game system stopped around Pandaria, I can’t imagine a reason why this aspect should change. Though there may well be a perfectly reasonable reason for it to do so.
Trust is linked to your characters’s name and server. So even if you decided to transfer to another server, you can get your trust level back by making a character with the same name on the same server as you were originally on to re-gain the TL3 (since the forums tracking only cared about name and server).
They’re hoping to make trust account-wide but we’re not there yet.
