    Get Back in the Fight During Welcome Back Weekend

    The War Within™ is nearly here—gather your friends and prepare to descend into the depths of Azeroth to face Xal'atath, Harbinger of the Void. From August 1 through August 4, we're giving all players with inactive World of Warcraft® accounts full access to the game* and all your characters without a subscription or Game Time**.

    Brave adventurers can access all expansions, including Dragonflight, to play the most recent content—including the Radiant Echoes pre-expansion event.

    Rejoin your guild, rally your Warband, and prepare to explore an entirely new world beneath Azeroth and get ready for The War Within when it launches on August 26, 2024, at 3 pm PDT globally.



    Get Back in Action

    If you've been away for a while, you can play through the new starting experience starting at level 1 to learn the ropes.

    You can also opt out of the starting experience and begin instead at level 1 in the starting area for your race. Upon reaching level 10, you can continue into Dragonflight or speak with Chromie to choose a Timewalking Campaign. Choose an expansion and continue leveling until you're ready to enter Khaz Algar at level 70 when The War Within goes live. Players with Allied race characters will begin at level 10. Non-Allied race Death Knights and Demon Hunters will automatically begin at level 8 and play through their own starting experience before moving on around level 10.

    If you'd like to select a different Timewalking Campaign, simply speak to Chromie again. With phase 2 of The War Within pre-expansion patch, Timewalking Campaigns scale to level 70 and include Dragonflight.

    Wait. Is the warband bank working at 100% ?? I heard there is still issues with it. Something about all gear being soulbound and not able to pull gold or a certain amount of gold out of the bank.

    Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.

    How about ensuring that current subscribers can actually participate in the event without having to wait for 90 mins if they miss taking part for the 2 mins that the event lasts. Then you can try and entice old subscribers back.

    If your account has been inactive for some time, it's likely that you have a lot more to do than just the pre-patch event.

    It mostly works, main issue I've found is it likes to eat unique items, I think because if you have one of said unique items on a character it doesn't show up in the warband bank on them and you can unknowingly put something else in its place.

    Also lost 5 stacks of PVP potions I put in last night, no idea how that happened but they're gone from both the character I put them in on and not in any of my warband bank tabs either.

    If I've lost anything else other than the above I haven't noticed it, but the last couple days have been chaos because I'm such a terrible hoarder.

    To think they could've actually played the game for a week and gotten similar results and not had their whole plan torpedoed by free game time =P

    I am personally not using it until about a month after the official launch. Got a bad feeling gold and items will disappear from it on launch day.

    They doubled bronze gains and nerfed the MoP raids since I last left, so maybe I will join a few more world tours and buy more mounts.

    Double bronze is here since like mid June. I remember that single HC tour (+ bazaar dailies) gave me around 110k bronze.

    I think the reason they nerfed raids in Remix was because they were suddenly stupid overtuned on pre-patch?

    could be wrong
