Ok So the patch brought me back out of semi-retirement.

BoA's still aren't truly BoA -.-

It says they are Battle.net bound but you can still only send them to another account on the same server, not to another server on the same account, which is kind of misleading. Which I admit is kinda nice, but still /sigh. I have 10 toons on my server and would like to make another 10 on another server without the 85 grind as I have a full set of BoA.

/rant off

In othernews I hear a ton of good from CtA

I'm fairly sure Blizzard addressed this in one of their Q&A's either last week or the week before. They said that the way WoW servers were designed, it's not possible at the moment to send mail cross server, and that the reason that they haven't developed this is because it would take too much time away from making new content and the like. I can't find the actual Q and A, because I can't be bothered, but I'm fairly sure what I just said is about 80% accurate.

Meh If so, my own damn fault for not reading up. I was just looking over the patch notes and noticed it. Was disappointed. I havent kept up with WoW at all since I stopped playing a few months back (about 4) so yeah, my fault for being uninformed.

Speaking of which, I'm pretty sure there was a blue post on this subject from earlier today. Let me go look it up, and I'll edit it into this post.

Edit: Okay, here it is: http://www.wowhead.com/bluetracker?topic=2416207302#24157521544

It's admittedly pretty limiting. We still want BoA items to truly be BoA, it's just something that will take quite a bit more development time and technical hurdles to overcome. This is one step in the right direction, though.


But hey, like you said, at least it's progress.

What happens if you transfer an alt to the new server with a bank full of BoA?
