wow WoW: Warlords of Draenor Digital Deluxe Items Available To Purchase

[Zadina 923]

After surprisingly retiring the Digital Deluxe version of Warlords of Draenor without giving any notice, Blizzard has decided to offer the items exclusive to the Deluxe edition in a special Bundle until the pre-patch for Legion goes live.

While the Digital Deluxe edition of Warlords of Draenor is no longer available (blame the Burning Legion), we know some WoD players might still be interested in snagging the digital items that came with it—including the Dread Raven mount and Dread Hatchling pet. Well, here’s another chance: we’ve created a special bundle that includes all of the Digital Deluxe bonus items, which you can purchase now for a limited time.

These Warlords of Draenor–themed extras for WoW, Diablo III, Hearthstone, and StarCraft II will be available for purchase until the pre-patch for the upcoming Legion expansion—after which point they’ll be sealed away into the vault. Please note that in order to purchase, you’ll need an active WoW subscription and a Warlords of Draenor standard edition or higher license on your account. Once purchased, these digital items will apply to all World of Warcraft accounts on your Battle.net account.

This announcement caused a dichotomy in the playerbase yet again. Some players had initially complained about the fact that there was no communication from Blizzard's part when they retired the Digital Deluxe edition of Warlords of Draenor. Blizzard proceeded to satisfy these complaints by announcing the aforementioned offer. On the other hand, after this announcement, some holders of the Deluxe edition questioned what is the point of buying limited edition versions of the game, if the exclusive items are available to purchase after said Deluxe edition is retired. They also wondered whether this incident will be repeated with following expansions, but a CM in the European forums hinted that this is a one-time thing only.

@Kuolevavelho: This option was added because the Digital Deluxe version of Warlords of Draenor was retired suddenly, and with no communication on our part. We realised this inconvenienced and upset a lot of players and there were many requests from players who still wanted to purchase the Digital Deluxe.

It was a mistake on our part to remove the option to purchase Warlords of Draenor Digital Deluxe with no prior warning. This is our way of rectifying that mistake. Once the Legion pre-patch is launched, this offer will no longer be available.

It seems that the community is quite eager to jump into arguments and take sides this week; we already reported all the controversies created by the banwave on botters and by an incident involving a multiboxer. We would advise everyone to relax and enjoy the festivities!
