Recommended Posts

The World of Warcraft Burning Crusade Classic Character Clone service is going away soon. You have one last chance to buy it for $5 before it's gone for good on July 26, 2022.

The World of Warcraft®: Burning Crusade Classic™ Character Clone service will soon be cycled out of the Battle.net® Shop. The service will be on sale until its retirement, and you'll be able to get a Character Clone for up to 66% off to keep those characters active on both Burning Crusade Classic and WoW Classic Era realms.

For a refresher on how Character Clones work and which characters are eligible to use this service, refer to our Playing Ahead: Making Choices in WoW Classic blog post.


What is the Character Clone Service?

The Character Clone service allows you to activate a copy of one of your WoW Classic characters, restored from a point in time just before the Burning Crusade Classic pre-launch update on May 18, 2021, on either a Burning Crusade Classic realm or a WoW Classic era realm.

To clone your character, simply log in to Burning Crusade Classic or WoW Classic—wherever you would like your cloned character to become available. Any characters that are eligible for the Character Clone service on the character select screen will have an appropriate icon. Some restrictions do apply; you can read about them in our support article.

When is the Service Being Retired?

The Character Clone service will be permanently retired on July 26, 2022. After that date, any locked clones will be removed from their respective realms and will no longer be available.

What Happens if I Don’t Make a Choice?

If you haven’t made a choice for any of your characters since the last time you logged in to either WoW Classic or Burning Crusade Classic, those characters will be moved to Burning Crusade Classic. The Classic Era version of the character will be permanently deleted and unavailable for cloning.


Thank you!

WoW Classic, Burning Crusade Classic, and Wrath of the Lich King Classic wouldn’t exist without your unwavering support. We hope you’ll continue to relive Azeroth as it was and create new memories. Thank you for playing, and we’ll see you In Azeroth.

Why would I pay to clone a character and lose a years progress when I can just wait and it will happen for free with...presumably...the current level it's at?

When they released the progression realms I made "the choice" on the only classic character I'd spun up.

If this were about being able to one-time port a character from the regular realms then I could see why the "window is short, do you want to" warning.  Looks like not.  Super confusing.

      Looks like a bug. We’re investigating it.

      Update: the buff is now live on NA and EU servers as well!
      It's time for joy on TBC Classic servers, as the Joyous Journeys 50% extra XO buff has gone live on Oceanic servers. It was late Monday morning for that region when it went up so we should be seeing the buff arrive shortly to EU and then NA, but it's definitely coming today (Monday).
      The buff was said to arrive "at least 6-8 weeks" before WotLK Classic's launch, and we've already seen a leaked release date from the official site for September 26th, which is 1 week later, but it's now safe to say September is the target month at least.
      In any case, now is the time to level up those classes you may have wanted to try out for WotLK Classic!

      It's finally here! After an early launch on Oceanic realms the Joyous Journeys 50% XP buff has arrived to EU and NA servers! Now is the time to get those WotLK classes set up and ready for the new Classic, which also got its officialr release date today. 
      Prepare for #WrathClassic with a 50% XP boost.
