Character Creation
To get started in the Warlords of Draenor beta, you can either copy an existing character from live realms or create a level-90 template character on Beta Leveling Realm 01 (PvE) or Beta Leveling Realm 02 (PvP). We're testing a new Character Copy system which is accessible at the Character Selection screen from within the beta game client. Note that this feature is currently only available to players with NA accounts. EU players will need to create level-90 template characters in order to access Draenor, which is also done at the Character Selection screen from within the beta game client.
To get to Draenor, visit giant Khadgar* standing in the Trade District of Stormwind and Valley of Strength in Orgrimmar.
*Giant Khadgar is a temporary teleportation method for testing purposes only.
Level-100 PvP Testing
- When you create a character on Level 100 PvP, it will automatically be boosted to level 100 and given a full set of level-100 PvP gear–no template creation necessary!
- You will not be able to access any of the new zones or dungeons available on the other beta servers (with the exception of Ashran, once it’s ready for testing).
As part of our Warlords of Draenor beta testing, we’ve opened up a new realm with some special rules. The Level 100 PvP realm is intended to provide a strong environment for PvP testing, including the new PvP zone Ashran. Here’s how it works:
Of course, we still encourage you to try out all the new content coming in Warlords, too. For that, you’ll need to create a level-90 template character (or copy an existing level-90 character) on either Beta Leveling Realm 01 (PvE) or Beta Leveling Realm 02 (PvP) servers.
Providing Feedback
Remember, your feedback will directly impact the quality of the final game—our developers are standing by!
Let’s go over a few things to keep in mind during the testing phase:
- Please keep your feedback constructive and be very clear about what you like, or don’t like, about a particular aspect of the new content and features. By being specific about how your experience with Warlords could be improved, you can better provide us with actionable feedback.
- To submit a bug or offer a suggestion from within the game, go to Game Menu (escape) > Help > Submit Bug or Submit Suggestion and provide us with as much detail as possible. The goal here is to ensure that we’ll be able to recreate the situation you were in when something may have gone wrong.
- Lastly, test all the things! Get out there and dive into all the quests and random encounters, smite the rare spawns, and explore the new zones. The more you experience, the more information you’ll be able to share with us and your fellow testers.
Thank you for participating in the beta test of Warlords of Draenor, and we look forward to reading your comments, suggestions, and feedback!
