Cross-Realm BOA Items on PTR

[MiRai]

Let's hope this makes it live.

In the latest 5.4.2 PTR build, we are testing the new ability to mail account-bound items to other characters on your account that may be on different servers. Notably, this should allow you to move heirlooms between servers, in advance of our planned Warlords changes that will make them fully account-wide.

Sending this sort of mail should work like any cross-server communication: You send the item to "Playername-Servername" and it should otherwise work like regular mail. Note that you can only send account-bound items, and not other items or gold.

Example: I have a character, Thrall, on the Benedictus server. I want to send my heirloom mace to my alt, Durotan, on the Lycanthoth server. I'd log in as Thrall, and attach the mace to a mail addressed to "Durotan-Lycanthoth" and hit send.

We'd appreciate any feedback or bug reports on this new feature so that we can address any issues prior to the release of 5.4.2. But even without direct feedback, just logging into PTR and mailing account-bound items across servers should give us useful data to help confirm that the feature is working as intended. Thanks!

rember in warloads you only need one set! if your running on the same email (battle.net)

@Ghostcrawler Fringe question: I have 2+ of same BoA item (for multibox teams). Will collection tab note how many I have available for use?

@EldreMaus No and there is really no reason to. Despite the fiction, you could have the same item out and in use on every character.

Not until the next expansion or, possibly, the pre-launch patch.

I imagine they might just delete all the heirlooms from bags and just have the new interface.

But I guess losing enchants may piss people off, so they probably won't do that.

Hopefully the interface makes it easy to see which items are already purchased, so farming should be easy as pie.
