My time expired in January 2010, I'm quite sure I even stopped playing before then, so it might be close to 7 years since this account was used

I only ever purchased: WoW, TBC & WotLK ty for all the free expansions Blizz
Guess it's time to buy Legion & some time

First time logging in since Jan 2010~ (6.5+ years)

This seems like a total mismatch of gear I'm quite sure I was in full T9 (ilvl 258) before

It didn't break

I kinda half expected everything to break, but props to Blizzard logging in worked perfectly fine

Achievements

That's a lot of achievements

Bank & Bags

6 Year old bank and bags worth of stuff, this is going to take some time to sort through I don't think there is anything of real value there

I had gear for all specs + PvP gear + a vanity set
Back in my day before your fancy tmogs, to use vanity sets, you had to use an addon to swap your gear around town

Artifacts

Librams & Symbols, true relics of the old

Librams were a Pally only item
Symbol of Kings was used for Greater Blessings

Mail

I have no idea why I have so many Reclaimed Keys, I just clicked through them all and got the gold

I had some more keys in my inventory, but after looking them up most comments confirmed they could just be deleted

Macros

Of all the things to save, I didn't think I'd still have my Macros...not that any of them are any use unless people still run SSC?

Pets

Unwrapping all of these felt like Christmas, I don't think I have anything rare at all

WoW is pokemon now?

(Graveyard of a) Friends list

A whole lot of Battle.Net changes have happened since I last played, no idea if this is just a dead without BattleTags

I haven't spoken to these people in 6-7 years...

WoW REGION TRANSFERS WHEN?

And finally the reason I came back to this account (an EU one), over making a new one where I live (Oceanic/US) to play with my current friends

It's not an impressive mount, nor is it -that- rare, but it's special.
Getting this mount meant a lot to me at the time with my guild. Blood, sweat & tears went into obtaining it and it's something I can't let go of, as lame as it is I'll always be proud of getting this(http://www.wowhead.com/item=44164/reins-of-the-black-proto-drake)

WoW Region Transfer (EU <-> US/Oceanic)
Wow has been around for 12 years, with some people playing that long. In that time I'm sure some people like me have moved to different regions, it'd be nice to be able to take your account with you to a new region bringing all your past memories, achievements & characters.

Blizzard hasn't to my knowledge ever made an official statement on Region Transfers, a few handful of comments from years ago point to law/legal issues or simply that EU and US are different clients, thus making it "impossible for now".
It'd be nice to get an official comment on it, even if they confirm that it'll never come it'd be something...although it would be nice if they could tell us if it was something being worked on.

I'm on my own on this server for now...but I'm sure a slow, old veteran like me can handle a few Legion mobs

I quit during Lich King. Wiki says that was 2008, holy crud. If I were to start again I wonder if I'd be better off re-rolling

Welcome back man and that mount is something I envy, I sadly stopped raiding in Wrath but have started it again as of MoP.

I've been playing since launch and Legion is the most fun I've had since mid Wrath. Hope you enjoy it the same :)

Legion is the most fun I've had in WoW since WotLK. There is so much to do and it's not the usual gear up using dungeons to raid progression

I'm going to re-pay my FF14 subscription soon, I'm excited to be a noob again.

I'm happy you have it a try, even if people do talk shit about the game. I think it's amazing. Have fun discovering your class changes

I haven't logged into my account since 2007 XD I would give anything to log into it again, but I can't remember any of my account info

I did the same thing a month ago. The addiction starts anew, lol

I wanna to this, I quit at WotLK. I would be a noob all over again

It's not that bad if you get deluxe/boost. You get to 100 and get a starter set of gear which is fine for levelling.

My brother quit at the launch of cata and downloaded the game again last night. If you ever thought about getting back in do it now

I have played every edition of the game since vanilla and it is the best version yet.

now is the best time. so much stuff to do, amazing story.

Just do it, try it out! The Broken Isles are a wonderful zone, much better than Draenor!

I did and it is really fun! I liked both WoD and now Legion, but I feel completely incompetent! FUN!

Being a noob is one of the best feelings; everything feels new again

I think a lot of people quit around WotLK, myself included, it was just a bad expansion. I did hop back on briefly for WoD though.

Black Proto Drake nothing special? It's unobtainable and was only available in old Naxx. It's pretty impressive and rare :) You can (1/2)

new Naxx*

I thought the black and blighted were old ulduar rewards. That said it's been a while since I l8gged in aswel. 3 years clean

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Black was for Glory of the Heroic Raider, it was the 25man for achievements with Naxx, Maly & Sarth.

always PM Blizzard about the region transfer by making a support ticket. (2/2)

10 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 0

I've not heard of someone being allowed to Region Xfer from a support ticket. I don't think it's something they even have enabled.

10 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 0

They don't. Unfortunately there is no region transfer. The EU and NA licenses are different - and not interchangeable.

10 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

Well, writing a ticket wont hurt. Go ahead, try it
