[Exploit] Char Transfer w/Account Items in tow

Did a search for "Character transfer" (keeping in terms broad) and went through all 4 pages of results with no match found.

I logged in (on my main account) during Blizz' 4th Anniversary and got the BoA Bear (Baby Blizzard Bear - Item - World of Warcraft). I decided to transfer one of my toon's (having the bear pet) to the new account (RaF in this case, although I'm sure it doesn't matter) and got a nice surprise. Once complete, I noticed that I still had the bear pet in my bags... but now it was bound to my new account as well as the old, and available to mail to all my new account's toons (which of course I did). So through my experience, I can say that it works for pets... I would assume any BoA gear/item as well !?!?

No begging for +rep, and this is kind of common sense.

Dont ask for Rep

[saintg]

Wouldn't "Feed the +Rep not the bears" be considered a statement or maybe even perhaps a catchy phrase and not a question? "Begging" also seems a bit of a harsh word. With the economy the way it is, you'd be hard pressed not to find better examples.
That said, thanks for the free bump, and you're welcome for the incremented post count

A few months back I recruited a friend (myself) and got the Zhevra mount (Swift Zhevra - Item - World of Warcraft). I also had logged in (on my main account) during Blizz' 4th Anniversary and got the account wide Bear (Baby Blizzard Bear - Item - World of Warcraft). I decided to transfer one of my old main's (having both the bear pet and zhevra mount) to the recruited account and got a nice surprise. Once complete, I noticed that I still had the Zhevra mount and bear pet in my bags/mail... but now it was bound to my recruit account as well, and available to mail to all my recruited account's toons (which of course I did). So through my experience, I can say that it works for mounts and pets... I would assume BoA gear as well?!?. Woot...

Feed the +Rep not the bears

The Zhevra mount, AFAIK, is not BoA. Last I checked, it was BoP, and can only be issued to one character on the main account. If that's still the case, I don't see how that would allow you to have it on both accounts, as you would have only had it on one character in the first place.

The bear, I could see that working though, as that is BoA, and once you've passed it around and learned it on your main, you could then transfer a character with it to another account, and learn it there as well.

Asking for rep is insta-fail.

It is begging, but has been edited already so either you or a mod agreed to that...

and my post count, who cares about that, it does not suddenly unlock secret features for me above 50 so...

:wave:

Zhevra is BoP and locked onto 1 char

[valiliv]

Zhevra is a unique, BOP item. Can't mail it. Not bind-to-account. OP's story is 100% made-up bullshit fishing for rep.

I plan to send a toon with my Blizzcon bear to an alt account soon. And I've read up that it will work, however both my RAF Zhevrah are BOP and cannot be sent across toons.

[saintg]

I got the original story and permission to post from a fellow guildie. Thinking the MMOwned community would like to know, I posted. After the feedback, I confirmed with him that in fact the Zhevra mount was not part of the exploit (updated OP to reflect).
BoA items on the toon at the time of transfer do duplicate over to the transferred-to account. In the case (like the 4th Anniv. Bear) that you can mail the item to your other toons, the exploit still stands (obvious or not, I assure you Blizz did not intend for it to happen, therefore it is an exploit).
As for the +Rep, I contest that my remark (comical in nature) was in no way begging or asking for rep (as that would be futile knowing the flaming I see in nearly every post here). I'll honor the MOD's removal and refrain from mixing humor and rep together in the future. For those offended at my play on words, wow... just wow.

Meh...
@OP: Everyone starts becoming a real douche when things concern rep. Just don't speak of it - ever - and things'll be fine. It's not like it's about the rep anyways. It's about the community and helping them out.

[cdipaolo]

how u hav 3 rep power and only 2 rep?? weird, +rep anyways

[dffrntdnl]

Talking about rep in these forums is like talking about anal sex in church. It happens, some give, some receive, and everyone knows it, but if you say it you will get crucified. FYI
