[Feb 20, 2024] Login and Instance Transfer Issues

Now getting a DDOS status message. We are all victims here people, there is no villain in the thread. Be kind to each other.

I need pay! $20 per hour WFH and I’ll spend all my time on here answering things.

I got the DDoS message as well, kinda figures at this point

Oh boy. Another DDoS attack! I wonder if this means a reset of Vault rewards?

Uhhh, has it ever meant that?

Umm, about that… :dracthyr_cry_animated: :dracthyr_cry_animated:

There is no cake. Not even a Tshirt.

Things appear to be much better at this point. We’ve seen a significant drop off in failed logins and instance transferring seems to be a bit smoother now as well.

I’m still having issues with login

Same for me, it lets me in for around 10 seconds and kicks me out right after

Are you having issues on a specific character? Multiple characters? A single realm, or multiple realms?

If it’s a specific character, try relocating them to a safe spot in-game:

i can’t login at all

Wont even let me pass the log in screen after entering in my password. Lol.

I can but it kicks me all the time and after I have to sit at logging screen for 5-10 minutes to log in again

Would you all be able to provide some additional information about what you’re encountering?

  • Are you having trouble signing into your Battle.net account in the launcher?
  • What happens when you press PLAY in the launcher? Is the game opening and attempting to sign you in or is it asking you to provide your credentials?
  • Do you receive an error message?

The issue this thread was tracking appears to be resolved. So it does sound like you may be encountering something different.

  • Are you having trouble signing into your Battle.net account in the launcher?

No.

  • What happens when you press PLAY in the launcher? Is the game opening and attempting to sign you in or is it asking you to provide your credentials?

Game launches, signs me in, tries to connect to server and, until just now, fails and just sits there. But a couple of minutes ago, I did get into the server (one of two on which I have toons) on which I last played before the downtime. When I tried to switch to the other server… see above: no dice. Can still get into most recently played server, though.

  • Do you receive an error message?

No.

Thank you, though, for changing the message in the Battle.net desktop app to say that it was as I suspected, a DDoS attack. Hope it wasn’t yet another based on easily pwned, unwatchable, old routers and modems.

Thanks for the additional info. I’ll pas that along.

It sounds like the widespread impact we were seeing earlier has mostly been mitigated but the team will continue to look into these edge cases.

Can log in into Bnet
It keeps giving me wow51900319 error for 5-8 attempts of connecting and I get in the game. Stay in game for 10 second and it kick me out with same error

Guess is still an issues. i GUESS no raiding tonight!
