Scroll of Resurrection Revamp - Free lvl 80 Character and more!

Sell a level 80 boost on the store! I'd buy that for about 5 to 10$.*

Shit, did they just leak their april fools joke early?

Scroll. Y U NO WORK?! I want to play.

Can't wait to get all the details of this from Blizzard. Battle net account management is down most likely because they're setting this up

Neither the ones who are defending Blizzard every single way possible.

I'm happy for quitting WoW, not that I want to return but how badly they treat their paying costumers. So now they give away free paid services, Cataclysm, and a lever 80, are Blizzard becomming desperate?

In all srziznzz guyz.. cause wow iz srs bzz. I do frequent these forums quite often to watch the demise of this terrible game. It's like a car accident. You can't help but look. Panda panda. lewl lewl. Hai2uagainfrands

Scroll of Resurrection has to be gifted to an account that's been innactive for six or more months from a player who has an active account. And there's a limit on how many you can give out, IIRC.

It's not like new people will be signing up for the game and getting to level 80 instantly.

This is exclusively for people who want to invite their friends who have quit back to the game.

Wow, this really pisses me off....just spent $40 about 2 months ago upgrading my wifes account to cata and getting her playing again. All I got was a hideous rocket I never use, and she had to pay $20 each for wrath and cata. Thanks, Blizz!

That's correct. It was 90 days under the old Scroll of Resurrection. Who knows, they might change it in this one if they're really desperate for people to come back.

BTW did I miss the Steve Jobs autobiography quote yet on how companies starting to decline? It's kinda sad to see that pop up here. Not to mention how Blizzard views loyality.

Jesus their giving away a lot there...

This is brilliant. Blizzard has some real competition now with Swtor (no matter what you may think of it) and TERA as well as GW2 coming out soon. They need to do something to try to retain as many subscribers as they can. This is not a "desperate" move, this is a logical move. If you owned a store and several more stores opened in your area that sold similar products, you would take measures to make sure you kept as many customers as possible. That isn't desperation folks, that common sense. Also, to those complaining that Blizzard spent a lot of Cata development revamping the old zones and now returning players will be able to skip right over them...well, the revamped zones did not make them return, did they? So I guess they will not cry if they get shot up to 80 and skip them. And chances are if they stay subbed they will make some alts and see the content.*This RAF revamp is obviously meant to get previous players back and playing alongside their friends ASAP, which, let's be honest, is probably the most fun thing in WoW. running dungeons, pvping, questing etc. with friends. I am sure if there was not level boost with this people might come back, realize they have 85 levels to go through while their friends are at 85 doing other things without them. Not the best way to welcome them back to the game.

I'm not sure why this upsets people...

First off, Blizz does not make money from selling copies of games (well, not a lot), they make money from subscriptions. As such, this is a very good incentive for people to start playing again. A company's #1 goal is to be profitable. If this lends itself to that goal then it is a good strategy. This does not signal the end and they are still by far the biggest and most profitable MMO on the market. That isn't going to change any time soon. And yes, companies do perform layoffs in order to streamline the company and be more efficient. It does not mean that they are about to go bankrupt, it means that they found redundancies and got rid of them. This happens all of the time. Anyone who thinks otherwise has obviously never worked a real job.

Second, this is for returning players only, i.e., people who played and quit. Yes, there will be some who get to 80 and will not learn their class by 85, but does this not happen already? Do you really think this will become a bigger "problem" than it already is?

Many of you just sound like jealous babies. Grow up.

Battle.net is now under*maintenance. I assume it's being pushed in now / hopes

cancel your subs now guys and wait 90 days!!

i have subbed this game for 3 years straight until Q4 2011! what do i get? do i get anything? how about a Mount, a free month, a free level 80, how about a free server transfers, how about... oh shit i guess it's the time for me to move on.
Unsubbed today to wait for GW2

I... I don't even know what to make of this. O_o

Demise? It's still got 10 million subs. Just because *you* don't play it doesn't mean it's going to die. The game has better end game (and has for years) than any other mmo.

And as for pandas, wow has gnomes and blood elves too. People seem fine with Gnomes and have been from the start, but Pandas, no... that's just too much. The whole panda comment is silly. If you've played wow you'd know there are way sillier creatures in it.
