Hello MMO-Champion,
My friend told me the other day that the video game store next to us sells WoW(Battle.net) authenticators. And I was wondering, how does it work? I mean can I just buy one and attach it somehow to my account? I thought I needed a specific authenticator for my account with some specific serial number or something.
I've been thinking of getting physical authenticator for my account because the mobile(that I used via program since I dont have a smartphone) was starting to give me a heartattack. Was gonna log into b.net and it told me information was wrong and then when I tried to check if I was using the right authenticator(I have one for my 2nd account too) it gave me an invalid password error so something has gone wrong with the program. Luckily I was able to log on my laptop and it worked there. So I was wondering if maybe it was a virus I got or something that messed it up(scanning my computer atm).
So yeah, can I just go to the video game store and purchase the authenticator, will it work? Also how well do the physical authenticators last? Can they break easily? Can you have a backup authenticator?
Would love some answers and advices! Don't wanna leave my account without an authenticator!
Thanks in advance!
PS I hope I posted in the right section, wasn't sure if I should've posted here or off-topic. But thought I'd post it here cause it's related to WoW.
