Are you familiar with WoW’s limited account restoration clause?

In your whole history of playing World of Warcraft, did you ever experience not receiving rewards after completing certain quests? Well, a similar fate recently occurred Blizzard‘s answer to it might shed some light to your own problem.

According to player Shizuko over at the official WoW community site, he found his Master Dragonslayers Signet suddenly missing after keeping it in the bank for some time. The player added that he spoke with a GM but the latter mentioned that it wouldn’t be possible to restore the item.

“The first thing we would need to verify is that you completed that particular quest and we would need to verify what the reward that you selected was. Depending on when you completed the quest this can lead to searching weeks or months of information, scanning thousands upon thousands of lines of information,” explained Blizzard’s Vrakthris.

Before you guys fret and say that Blizzard is not doing its job properly, you have to keep in mind that rewards are governed by certain in-game rules. The explanation given above is part of the game’s limited account restoration clause. This means that each item has a limited life span for it to be recovered once deleted, sold, or disenchanted.

What we suggest for Shizuko, or to any WoW player for that matter, is to report any insidence like this as soon as possible to increase the likelihood that Blizzard will be able to recover your lost item.
