- What is the level limit?
The current character level limit is 60. This is subject to change in the beta.
- Will there be multiple characters per account?
Yes. Players will be able to create multiple characters per account.
- How many characters are allowed per account?
The current limit is a total of 8 characters across all realms. This number is subject to change.
- Can you tell us more about what options are customizable on your character when you create it?
We don't want to overwhelm players with too many choices when they start off. That's why we are concentrating on features that players will notice right away. This will include things like hair style, hair color, skin color, and facial features. Players will of course also get to select their race, gender, and class. The remaining elements of character customization will be done in-game, when players have a better understanding of how the choices they're making will affect their characters.
- Can players customize the height & weight of their characters?
Height/Weight will likely be unchangeable due to how it affects character animations and items on the character. The combination of wanting distinct animations and not wanting the animations to look wonky because they were being used on a model they were not quite meant for, made us decide to not allow changing of height/weight at this time.
- How long can your name be and will last names be available?
Currently, all names are restricted to 12 characters. We are planning on implementing last names, however, the criteria for obtaining one has not been determined.
- Will characters require food and water to survive?
A character will never be required to eat or drink. Nor will there be negative consequences for not consuming food and water. While the specifics have not been determined, there will be benefits associated with eating and drinking.
- Will characters be able to swim?
Characters will be able to swim, and World of Warcraft will have underwater environments to explore.
- Is there a limit on how much money a character can carry?
No.
- Will characters age?
Characters will not get older as they progress in the game.
- Will a character's gender have any effect on its stats?
No. Males and females will be equally effective in all areas of the game.
- Will you have a skill-based or level-based system?
Our goal is to incorporate the best elements of both skill-based and level-based systems. This means that players will be able to gain levels and gain abilities based on their class as they level up through the game. Players will also be able to acquire additional skills through other gameplay methods such as seeking mentors or by completing quests. These extra skills may not always be related to the player's class.
- Will players be able to customize their pet's statistics, abilities or appearances?
Pets can be trained and customized. This is still being developed, so the amount of customization is uncertain.
- Can our characters sit in chairs?
Yes.
- Will characters be able to sheathe their weapons?
Yes. They can do this at any time with the "Z" key.
