Greetings Warmane community,
We are excited to announce the long-awaited merge of Deathwing and Ragnaros into one a new realm named Icecrown. The merge is set to take place on May 20, 2016 when both aforementioned realms will be taken offline to initiate the merge maintenance.
There are great benefits to this merge and they show in form of more players to play with, more things happening in the world and of course our new core that can take this burden well as proven well by our realm Lordaeron. But with all great things, there's bound to be some few inevitable side-effects.
We have devised a way for players to reserve their names ahead of the actual merge. The system will be in place 2 weeks before the actual merge and it will be implemented in a way that players can reserve one name that belongs to a level 80 character prior to the merge.
Character name reservations for Deathwing and Ragnaros merge will be available Monday, May 9 at 19:00.
Accounts that will result in exceeding the 10 characters limit, will have a way to store remaining characters in a frozen state and they can activate/deactivate the chosen characters as they please with due respect to the 10 characters limitation within the client. The systems put in place will be still on first come, first serve basis as we believe it is the fairest option of them all. We hope you are excited to play on the new realm as much as we are dedicated to improving the best high-rate WoTLK experience there is.
This thread will be updated with any relevant information in the upcoming 72 hours with respect to questions in the thread.
Regards
Warmane
