EU+US I leveled !

Jay204

Grandfathered
So I just spent the last week preparing a few toons for F2P 20. My resto shaman was to be my pride and joy. The account expired this evening and logged me out as my sub ran out.

I logged back in, played a single BG and leveled to 22.

What. Just. Happened.
 
Yea this is not as intended, this is a bug in their side. Id go pretty aggresive on the ticket. Not saying you have to be mean but you put a few thousand gold and a month of playtime into a character that is now been rendered useless from its original intent, on no fault of your own, because of their issues. Honestly thats pretty ridiclous. Gl tho, getting deleveled is not easy.
 
Still haven't had my Shaman de-leveled. Ticket times are up over 3 days now. I had put together a couple of other toons that I've been able to play. I guess hopefully I'll get a response some time tomorrow night...?

ticket times are nuts but this is a known bug and should be easily resolved. just be polite but firm and theyll hook you up
 
Yup I’ve had this happen and blizz told me to go fuck myself and if I wrote one more ticket they would disable my account I have screenshots to prove it. it’s crazy - they didn’t actually say that but i can read between the lines with my grade 10
 
Sad thing is I opened that dumb ticket last week about those level 60 gloves that I didn't realize were level 60. Talk about burning currency. :p
[doublepost=1588292088,1588292050][/doublepost]Ooo and I got an epic Foamspittle this morning on my mage. Now for the druid!
 
And nearly four days after creating my ticket, here's their response :

"While I understand how frustrating this may be for you, we simply do not delevel characters after they have gained experience in game. There is no feature that will allow us to recreate your character at that particular level."

I've replied to keep the ticket open and now will likely wait another 4 days. No fun.
 
You need to explain clearly that
the experience was gained while you didn’t have a subscription,
it should’ve been impossible for it to happen,

and you are no longer able to play your character because of it

US69145716 the ticket id of when this happened to a toon of mine. i did under Not Listed Here somewhere, and then did a live chat

thats not my name and he left formatting in.


for soemthing important like this you should be doing a ticket, and then right after do a live live chat so you can step by step explain the issue, and then explain why its an issue, and then do their job and tell them what you need them to do to fix the problem

Ah Live Chat. They do not make it easy to find that. Where is it? I've clicked all over the place and cannot find the option.

Ah I see when you create are on the create-a-ticket page they show Live Chat and Callback as options but they're both greyed out.

then you press live chat. im not sure if its closed atm, or if its closed for a while, its greyed out atm for me (2:38pm PST)

maybe they are too busy with the increased player base atm to have live chat enabled
[doublepost=1588369298,1588369183][/doublepost]the more you can go in depth on the bug the better. state that the game kicked you out, and you logged in fast. it is a delay on character status on their part that causes this bug.
 
And still they dig their heels in. Here's the most recent response :

I took a look into this for you and I found that you XP gains were turned back on before your time expired. After looking this over we can not assist in this case. I understand wanting a low level character however we will not delevel any character. I have looked into this and there was no bug present. You can play up to evel 20 on an account with no game time however support s limited as it is not an active account.
 
did you make it clear that you leveled after your game time ended?

Ticket #1 And to be clear, the game had logged me out of another character once my subscription had expired. I then logged into two other characters that were level 20 or smaller. I even tried checking the Auction House and saw that it is cut off when you do not have a subscription. I then proceeded to enter a Battleground which leveled me. Multiple other indicators confirmed that I was locked onto a "starter account" for now.

Ticket #2 This was obviously an error in the game mechanics. My game time had expired. I was logged out of WoW entirely and upon logging back in everything indicated that I was on a starter account with full restrictions. And just to be fully fully clear, the character leveled AFTER my game time expired and AFTER I had logged out of the game and back into the game completely. Now I cannot access this character.

Both of those were included prior to Blizzard's most recent response which I'd pasted above. The more this goes on, the less likely I am to even consider Shadowlands. At first, this was a fun project to pass the time for a few months. Now I'm just getting mad and my wife is getting annoyed with me getting mad and.....
[doublepost=1588628353,1588626272][/doublepost]Alright well... I spoke to customer service privately using Twitter. They recommended I request a couple of days of game time to clean up my affairs. I guess I'll settle for that over nothing. Again.... not my preferred solution but....
 
Your not the first to know the heartache of leveling a twink and you definitely won’t be the last.
My suggestion to you is to shelf that toon and re-roll on the opposite faction and hope in SL that 21 is also squished to 10.
At least that way you can still play resto shaman and if you can play your original again one day the you will have one on both horde and alliance.

Keep at it! Theres been many success stories on here some even months and months after it happened. Light even intentionally leveled then got it deleveled like a year later?

Unfortunately theres probably going to be a lot of bad/unhelpful gms right now with the global crisis going on so prepare to hunker down. At the very least you can get a live ticket, explain the issue and how it doesnt make sense given the restrictions set in place by the start account stuff, and then see how they go from there.

In the future I always wait a few hours/a day after the time expires just to be sure. You can also check on mobs too incase you are still getting exp
