account

One account, ten characters. Takes about a minute. We ask for an email so you can reset your password — that is the entire reason, and it is the only thing we do with it.

Already have one? Get the client and log in with your account name — not your email, not your character name.

Form

Your details

Account names are permanent and case-sensitive. Your characters get their own names later, so this one is for you, not for anyone else to read.

Letters, numbers, and underscore. This is what you type at the login screen.

Used to reset your password. Nothing else is ever sent here.

Long beats complicated. Three unrelated words will outlast any substitution scheme.

Then

After you press the button

No confirmation email to wait for. Go and download.

  1. The account exists immediately

    There is no approval queue and no verification link. Your email is only checked when you ask for a reset.

  2. Download the client

    14 MB launcher, 19.4 GB client, about 35 minutes on a 100 Mbit line. Start it now and read the guides while it runs.

  3. Make a character at the realm select screen

    Ten slots. Character names are separate from your account name and are first-come. Pick one before your friend does.
