Resurrections for Hardcore Deaths due to DDoS - April 24 and May 3

We have identified and resurrected characters who died due to circumstances caused by distributed denial-of-service attacks on the Doomhowl realm on April 24, and on the Doomhowl and Defias Pillager realms on May 3. We are done with these restorations, and affected players should be able to select the ghost character on the Doomhowl and Defias Pillager realms and log into it to complete the process.

Please be reminded:

• If we decide to restore characters lost to a DDoS attack, we will only restore characters that remain on their Hardcore realm. A character cannot be restored if the character was transferred to another realm.
• Blizzard Customer Support cannot assist with issues related to characters who have died on Hardcore realms.

Please do not contact Blizzard Customer Support with any inquiries regarding character deaths on Hardcore realms.

Thank you very much!

So new meta when you are about to die in HC is just to DDoS servers and they will revive you.

If only timestamps were a thing and Blizzard could see the death came before the DDoS was instigated, wouldn't that be amazing?

It wouldn't be the first time someone valued their WoW character enough to commit an actual crime, I guess.
