How do you turn off the new character select list?

The new one is REALLY bad compared to the old one. any way to change it back?

Unfortunately no. It took me an hour to decide how I wanted it ordered so that I didn’t throw my computer out the window and quit the game. lol

If you just mean the campfire scene, you can drag the 4 characters down into the rest of the list to disable it and see one character at a time again.

If you mean the rest of the new setup, then no.

Ya, I’m stuck in a group with some evil cat bear tree owl.

And I really hate cats. And trees.

You could… but then the huge blank space stays there, because it doesn’t save the collapse option.

Of course it doesn’t. lol.

You don’t, unless moving all of your characters out of the favorites section works.

I enjoy the warbands but I do wish I could organize it by server.

I think it’s an order of magnitude better. So I am happy with it. No, there’s no way to change it back.

Me too.
But I could see why people who played multiple servers or many, many alts would be unhappy.
Also I had a bunch of level 1s from different servers and every time I’d delete them I’d have to “reconnect to Blizzard services” lmao

And then it bugged out and I had to restart the client to actually log in.

But these are teething pains.

I do hope they add some kind of filters to be able to sort through my characters a bit better.

I had it so that my Horde characters are on one server, Alliance another, and MoP a third. I started running out of name ideas a while ago so I have a few doubles and I see my long list and my eyes kind of just glaze over.

But I think the camp site thing is cool.

I mean, it’s not that bad. Add a few more collapsible ordered lists, improve the search option, and it will look cleaner.

True, but something like this would have been such a quality of life improvement:

I set up my Warband by both armor type and my favorite classes to play by that armor type.

So I have my fav Cloth, Leather, Mail, Plate classes as my warband.

Same

I now have all my healers at the top followed by range, melee and tanks at bottom. But my healer list is so long (3 Resto Druid, 3 Resto Shaman, 4 Healer Priests, 3 Mistweavers, 1 Evoker, 1 Holy Paladin) and then my range list is like 5 Warlocks, 4 Mages, 4 Hunters etc etc lol It’s a bit much

If the login screen becomes modable I suspect a bunch of sorting mods to appear eventually.

You do understand every character on your account in in your Warband right? Not just the 4 Favorites.

there’s nothing really stopping you from doing that… (other than having to sift through a mountain of characters, and read the fine print to find which server they’re on)

Yes.

But I thought we are talking about the lineup you get… the visual representation that mimics how Diablo 2 and beyond does it. Those are only limited to 4.

I’d like to organize mine by class. Having a general custom category option would be wonderful.

That’s the neat thing, you don’t.
