Heirlooms (Since 6.1)

[MiRai]

Has anyone tried to transfer heirlooms between BNet accounts since the addition of the heirlooms tab? I'm curious if we pull the heirlooms out of the tab and transfer said character to an account on another BNet account, will the heirlooms tab populate with those new heirlooms that are in that character's inventory?

At start yes they did work start ( like other stuff) but even in your bags they dont make it to the the new accont anymore. Somone said they tryed it last week.

What if you move a character and they are wearing them?

I imagine it's the same thing as if they're in your inventory—they go poof—but I'm not about to try it and find out since I'll need much more than just one set of heirlooms moved over.

You can't any more. As soon as you attempt a character transfer, you'll be prompted to remove the heirlooms from said character before you can complete the process in Account Management.

I thought of that after I made my post, because it'd be pretty shitty to move your character and have your heirlooms just stripped from you. I figured they'd have to put something in during the transfer process the same way they stop you from transferring with mail in your mailbox.

That'd be quite a shitty move indeed, yes. And that's precisely where it happens, the page where you get warned of any mail in a character's mailbox is also where they'll warn you about your hairy looms if needed.

It can be quite the investment gold-wise to get everything you want for a new Battle.net account, particularly as level 100 versions - but as a multiboxing altoholic, I personally haven't had any regrets beyond the initial dent in my virtual wallet. Apart from the inability to transfer them between Battle.net accounts, I'm quite pleased with the new system. And because heirlooms only cost 1 gold each to transmogrify, you can even level in style without hurting your wallet further. ;)
