The Scroll of Resurrection Retires

The time has come to bid adieu to the Scroll of Resurrection. It’s served its divine purpose, but like most scrolls, it only has so many charges before it loses its magic and crumbles into ethereal dust. For those who’d still like a chance to use the scroll, you have until February 18 before players are no longer able to send invitations. For those who have an invitation outstanding, that’s still good for 30 days from the time it was sent, after which point the invitation will expire and the benefits can no longer be claimed.

For additional information on the Scroll of Resurrection, please visit our FAQ.

Battle.Net Launcher Update

    So, now it reads: Summons and dismisses an Dread Raven. This mount changes depending on your Riding skill and location. Account wide. 1.5 sec cast.

    Shouldn't it be "a Dread Raven"

    So... gearing up for the next Scroll of Res perhaps? The last one was limited in that accounts which were active after a certain date couldn't benefit from it, and I think that date was ~2 years ago? Hopefully they create another one, it's always nice to Res my restired accounts for a few perks!

    ...

    I just noticed you can set the Battle net desktop client to close it's window or quit completely when you launch a game.

    I really should check for new stuff when the BDA updates. Apparently it was added several months back.
