Didn't Know; Alt is Out 300 Echoes

I usually find it’s best to wait a day or two before going all in with new mechanics/currencies. They are rarely not done correctly right off the bat.

That shouldn’t have to be the case with a game that’s been around for this long with this much money backing it.

As we announced last Thursday, with scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, a new system will allow players who have Rank 3 Azerite essences on at least one character to more directly acquire those Essences on other characters. This will use a new currency called Echoes of Ny’alotha. Here are more details about the system.

Was not announced with this:

 Kaivax:

UPDATE MARCH 17

Please log into all characters who have Rank 3 Essences before you complete any activities that can be expected to drop Echoes of Ny’alotha.

Which is why people who lost out on hundreds of echoes should have them reimbursed.

Simply put, it should not be on the player to fill the gap in a system the provider built, especially if you decided to notify the players the same day the new system was introduced.

I don’t want freebies but I’m pretty avid about getting what I’ve earned. I did the work on 1 character to earn the essences which I was already ginding toward on my 2nd character. I also did the work of pushing my mythic keys (12 on both). But here I am, empty-handed because your system can’t associate 2 characters on the same account, on the same realm?

That’s some low-bar implementation.
