RAF & battle.net warning (30 day waiting period)

Try emailing billing with a thorough explanation and maybe that will be more effective. Hopefully the email will get passed to the correct person to make the decision.

Okay, I hate to sound negative, but from what I've heard, they can't get around the lock out period. The only way I was able to get past this was to have them remove an account from my B.net and then place one of the accounts on the other B.net in it's place. You aren't prevented from transferring within the same B.net account, so this worked for me. The rep told me that the security was set up so that it was impossible for the CSR reps to transfer and that they had to move whole accounts around instead.

Because of this, I'm going to use my $5 accounts as throwaways just for the RaF bonus. Yes it will take me almost twice as long to level up teams, but I won't have to pay $25 for any transfers or upgrade my throwaways. Add in the free 30 days and I don't even have to pay for subs on the main accounts that will get the bonus levels.

Bad news with the AoE change, with my DK booster I really hope my new team that I'm pushing (lvl 15 atm) doesn't get slowed down to badly. Going to double-check if theres any limits to how many targets Pestilence can spread my diseases onto - never noticed any problems with it before, so I hope it's not a new issue......

Edit: the Tooltip for Pestilence says:
"Spreads existing Blood Plague and Frost Fever infections from your target to all other enemies within 10 yards." Good news for anyone boosting with a DK....

GC answered a post about pestilence. It works differently then an actual AOE so it has no cap as to how many mobs it can pass diseases too. The AOE cap shouldn't affect pestilence at all. We "multiboxers" tend to think of it as a nerf due to all the boosting we do, however its actually a boost.

To HPAVC:

Are you sure you were able to get the 30 days lifted ? how exactly ? who did you talk to ?


To Souca:

hmm I have 6 slots in my main battle net (so only 2 free) but only actually use 5 there; so if they could delete 1; move 3 accounts from new->old then I transfer, then delete 1 more and transfer again - that would work - but can they really do that and how long will it take on the phone to get hold of someone able to do that, twice ? maybe december 27 will be there before...
