Not the warmest welcome .
If you ’re a pass musician to World of Warcraft ’s “ retail ” ( read : not Classic ) translation , you may have been provide a “ Welcome Back ” natural endowment . It ’s a nice gesture ; a package that comprise a whole set of course - appropriate armor , a Seth of bags , and a clean Quest Log , as well as a teleport back to your capital city ( either Stormwind or Orgrimmar ) . So what ’s not to love ? Well , a few matter , apparently .
WoW’s Welcome Back Gift – A Word of Warning
The Welcome Back Giftcurrently restricts your ability to earn your airstream ’s Heritage Armor when used , andcompletely reset your UI and action bars . Despite being cashable by any character from storey 10 – 60 , the talent apparently exhibits aknown bugthat prevents the unlock of the enhancive Heritage Armor on that character .

Basically , the game treats the role as if they ’ve used a rise or Faction / Race change . Something about the way the Welcome Back giving is coded must be flagging one of the Heritage Armor restrictions . We do n’t have an update as far as a fix quite yet , but I ’m hoping to try more in the future since Heritage Armor is a very hefty unlock for those willing to level up a character from simoleons .

As far as the UI and action bars – this is in all likelihood a misguided but well - intentioned way to get actor start up “ saucy , ” similar to the wiping of the Quest Log . Nothing kills my drive to diddle after a long break like logging in to a muddle of AddOns I ca n’t remember how to use mucking up my screen , and activity bars clogged with every ability in the book .
So , if you ’re skip over back in ( after 60 consecutively logged - out days ) and opine about the Welcome Back Gift , just keep these thing in idea . If you do n’t take care a clear ticket and already have ( or just do n’t worry about ) Heritage Armor , go for it ! If not , perhaps give it some thought .
