WoW Classic Season of Mastery Name Reservation Details
Originally Posted by Blizzard (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
On Thursday, November 11 at 6:00 p.m. PST, we’re opening Season of Mastery realms for name reservation. This will give players several days to create their main character and coordinate with others before the Season of Mastery begins on November 16.

To prepare for name reservation, select WoW Classic in your Battle.net Launcher, and then ‘World of Warcraft Classic’ in the Game Version & Account list. Season of Mastery realms will appear in-game on a new ‘Seasonal’ tab in the WoW Classic realm selector.

During name reservation, you will be able to create a maximum of one character per WoW account. If you change your mind about anything after you’ve created your character, you can delete that character and create a new one on any available realm in your region. In this region, the initial realms for name reservation will be:

Location - Realm Name - Realm Type (NA Realms)
  • U.S. East - Barman Shanker - PvP
  • U.S. East - Jom Gabbar - PvP
  • U.S. East - Shadowstrike - Normal
  • U.S. West - Mutanus - PvP
  • U.S. West - Nightfall - PvP
  • U.S. West - Obsidian Edge - Normal
  • Australia - Lionheart - Normal
  • Australia - Swamp of Sorrows - PvP

Realm Name - Realm Type (EU Realms)
  • Bonescythe - PvP
  • Dreadnaught - PvP
  • Ironfoe - PvP
  • Kingsfall - Normal
  • Quel’Serrar - Normal

Please note that for name reservation, each realm is configured to allow a limited number of total characters created, and if a realm becomes full, that realm will no longer allow further names to be reserved. If realms are reaching a full state during name reservation, we may open additional realms as soon as November 12. Before opening additional realms, we will post notices in the World of Warcraft Classic discussion forum.

After Season of Mastery begins on November 16, the limits of one character per WoW account and the maximum number of characters allowed per realm will be removed.

For more information on Season of Mastery, check out our announcement here and our design intentions posts here and here.

Thank you!

    Might as well make one of the future dead pvp realms it. They are really,really overestimating how much people wanna play classic after classic.

    This time they gave the servers some decent names, unlike the earlier classic launch, in which they were god awful.

    Quel’Serrar serrar, what ever will be, will be, the future 's not our's too see, Quel'Serrar.

    Not sure if they just used a random belf weapon(for a classic server) or if the dev(s) just took the piss here.

    Edit: Also I'm unsure wether 13 servers (I guess with around an average of 3k players?) is supposed to be a conservative or highly optimistic estimate for the actual demand of this.

    This season is Dead on Arrival. Blizzard will quickly realize this is wasted effort.

    Too little change, and the changes they made are a net negative (less viable classes due to more HP/DMG of bosses). They had an opportunity to actually make some changes that benefit the game and all they came up with is more HP. lol On second thought "they" is probably wrong, the amount of work put into this would speak for one person worth of work.

    Look at the next D3 season, and then realize it's just one dude doing that work, in less time (3 months). And WoW Classic gets this for 1 year, more HP and faster leveling. lmao

    people requested it. there is a reason vanilla WoW has lasted so long on private servers. its been a thing for a while. play for a year, then wipe the servers.
