Letter to Blizzard: WoW Account almost with 10 years & the need of Character Changes
First part - The Problem
I have a WoW account almost with 10 years old and I need to reconfigure my characters to play Legion Expansion.
It was with much effort and dedication that I reach with 7 chars at level 100 and another other 3 over 90, all in the same realm.
My problem is that I need to do 4 Faction Changes + 4 Race Changes to adjust this old account and this has a cost of 180 € and if we add the price of Legion Expansion (€ 44.99 or € 59.99), all these costs will be between € 224.99 and € 239.99. This is too much for those who just want to play a game with all the characters they have (and we lose the interest when not playing with them all).
I know I can create new char in a connected realm (as I did), because it is impossible to pay so much, but that way I will lose all achievments I could get and many items that are associated with the initial characters.
I know that Blizzard Support can't do anything. They said that sometimes Blizzard lower the prices of characters changes.
Observation: I play WoW since February 2007 and until today, I never had the oportunity to review my characters because this problem.
Second part - My Proposal
First of all, I think that it should be given the option for players to review their characters every 5 years of the account renewal (Only 1 day to make all changes that the account need).
As an unsubscriber at the moment, I want to post here to make Blizzard think if they could facilitate something.
For example:
- Assume that we want to change all the 12 characters (12 * 25€ = 300€)
Maybe you could make a package like this:
- 12 months of subscription (12 * 12.99€ = 155.88);
- Legion - Deluxe Edition (69.99€);
- Will be offered 1 day to make any character changes you need.
Total price: 225.87€
Third part - Some of your comments
I really have to agree with you on that!
Let me say that even agreeing with you, I'm not against charging this services, but I am strongly against discrimination by the absurd prices that are practiced. If I was a rich person I would not have any problem.

Thank you
