People Become Attached To Their Characters

Aggrend, the WoW Classic game producer, posted on the forums to announce that there will be a way to transfer your Season of Mastery characters to either Wrath Classic (or into a regular Classic server). If you don't know what WoW Classic's Seasons of Mastery are, it's similar to Diablo 3's Seasons. This server exists to allow all players to start anew with level 1-level WoW Classic characters and progress as the content unlocks in accelerated stages over the course of a calendar year. Naxxramas has been tested on the PTR and players are looking to the future.



You might not want your character to be abandoned if they have been with you for at least a year. People get attached to their characters. I've played the same character through several Diablo 3 Seasons, and I think letting players make a choice as described is a good move. It allows players to keep a character that they have been playing with friends for several years, building memories and collecting valuable items. I still have all my BWL gear years down the road, just for emotional reasons.



I understand why some players don’t like the change. Some of the arguments are silly. For example, you wanted to play SoM rather than TBCC. But I feel like Season of Mastery was meant to be a limited experience that had a beginning and an ending. Naxxramas 40 has been playing on Classic Era's farm for some time now so I don’t see how allowing Season of Mastery players to bring their characters to those servers would be a problem. Players who choose to go on a Wrath Classic servers? I mean, Naxx gear is good, don't get me wrong, but you will be replacing it before you get to level 80, I promise you - just in time for all new Naxx gear you'll also replace again.



This is my opinion. I also hope that they will allow players to take the same character to the next Season of Mastery. That means they can reset their character to level 1, move all of the gear to another character, or keep it in abeyance for the next Season of Mastery. You could also clone the character to level 1 so you can continue to play your SoM character in the new Season. If they don’t, you can always roll again on the next Season servers.
