Blizzard’s released a new Battle Net system that allows players to merge all of their gaming accounts under one. This greatly adds to the convenience factor. You don’t have to remember all your different CD keys for one thing. I added my Warcraft 3 and Frozen Throne keys and I found that I can download the client and play CD less! Although that feature was probably added patches ago.
Anyway, of more concern to us is the World of Warcraft account merging option. If you have multiple accounts, you can merge them all under one login name (which is the E-Mail address of your choice). Doing so means that when you login, you’re not using your WoW account name anymore.
Instead what happens is you login with your email and then you select which account you wish to tap into. All the characters will remain on their existing accounts. Yes, multi boxing is still possible since you can pick which accounts you want to log into. I can log into my Bravo35 account and onto my Sierra21 account and play a Warlock and a Mage with no problem at the same time (for example).
Stupid question after the fact that I did it anyways
Wouldn’t this make it easier for Keyloggers to get all your accounts?
Yes, this will make it easier for keyloggers to get into your account.
The purpose of putting multiple accounts into one is so blizzard can stop the sale of blizzard accounts.
Unless they offer a battle.net to battle.net transfer option for $25, But then its about making more money, because $15 a month per account is not enough.
When is blizzard forcing us to make battle.net accounts?
i only heard of this today (22nd, May, 2009), after i couldn’t log into my WOW account normally, seems that they randomly select some people and merge them with out notice. Also, i find that i still can’t log in, and i’ve used every e-mail and password i have. Also when i looked on the main WOW community site armory, i find my new priest, still the same as i left her the night before, my warlock missing everything but a t-shirt, and my lvl 80 Death knight missing. Now either it takes a while for everything to merge, or im being hacked, only problem is who would want to hack me, i have pretty lame characters with nothing worthwhile equipped.
Its that mergengin in battle.net hacking? first i answered in some questions there and then appears: ur wow accounts name and password, then i think…that can be hack!, i dont merge my account i think, i dont want my account be stole 😛 ps: sry that my wrong english, i hope u understand it 😉
