hi all, i made my first character in Blackrock
so i logged in and found the NPC telling me that i am automatically engaged in Seasonal Mode and will progress alongside Frostmourne's PVP Seasons and that this is optional
so, thus far i gather there are two modes, 1) the Seasonal (Frostmourne) Mode and 2) a not-seasonal mode (if i choose to leave the Seasonal Mode)? correct?
i don't see any options to leave the Seasonal Mode though
below i see an option labeled as Season 8 opt-in and if i choose it i get the message that i will be able to play in the Season 8 arena adder against Icecrown and Lordaeron
so this is a 2nd seasonal mode and all in all there are three modes?
1) the Seasonal (Frostmourne) Mode, 2) the not-seasonal mode (leave Seasonal (Frostmourne) Mode), 3) the Season 8 opt-in option (Icecrown+Lordaeron) mode?
you 've probably have guessed by now that i have no idea what's going on
a) what is each mode? how do they differ? what do i loose by choosing each of those modes?
b) how can i leave the Seasonal (Frostmourne) Mode? or is 2) mode = 3) mode?
thanks
thnx friend but the reason i came here to ask is precisely because i have read the aforementioned post which doesn't explain what the normal mode is, how to get out of the Seasonal Mode and whether the Season 8 opt-in mode is something else
this is a late response, but in case it is still unclear to some:
There are two modes on Blackrock: the seasonal (season 5, crossrealm with Frostmourne) and the regular (season 8, crossrealm with icecrown and lordaeron).
When creating a new character you are in the seasonal mode. In front of you there will be an NPC that allows you to opt out of it/opt in to season 8 which would put you in the other "Regular" mode. I refer to it as regular as the season 5 mode is the new one, while the other one is the same one that has been present for quite a while.
