This, would be best to call them. This has happened to a mate in the past, if you have original CD keys they may well want those or payment cards for past payments... that sort of thing to prove ownership.
Got my WW Monk to 90 and now dabbling in the Timeless Isle. First time I've ever bothered doing this endgame stuff so it's all new to me. I've got a couple of pieces of kit from the chests on the isle but I'm having trouble killing most of the mobs. I'm finding it very hard to kill the turtles, they just spin and hammer me hard even when I try to run away. I watch other classes seem to kill these with ease so I must be doing something wrong. Any WW Monks here can offer any advice?
Ironically, the best way to gear up now for raiding in LFR as DPS is PvP, as the current Honor gear is ilvl522, compared to 496 for Timeless Isle gear

If your trying to solo stuff on TTI its all about stuns/interrupts and buffs.
You need to learn what hurts and what sucks, so you stun and interrupt.
If your doing it right then the turtles don't get a spin off.
Most stuff you kill, those glinting dirt piles, the fruit on the trees etc can give temp buffs. Stack a few of these and it gets a lot easier.
I feel quite sad that the Heroic dungeons are basically irrelevant in the current patch, and there's no reason to do them other than for the daily 80 valor, since there's better means of getting capped out. I feel they should've done the same thing they did in the last patch with Cata by releasing decent enough gear to get into normal mode DS with.
Anywho.. did my first flex today finally, although I'm unsure why people ask for absurd item levels like 545+, how are people that are fully geared from SoO supposed to get into any flex raids if the requirements are so high? Saying that though, if I replaced my other 3 502 items I had and had a legendary cloak my ilvl would probably be around 540. I forgot how bad pug groups are in WoW... jesus. Still hoping I can get geared up enough to join a heroic raiding guild in time for the end of the expac to go into Mythic raiding in WoD. Giving up on WoW/raiding was hands down one of the worst decisions I made

From what i've seen, normal raids are 545+(usually 550) flexi's should be from 520+. I'm 545 and still working on getting my legendary cloak, Really wish i done the quests ages ago, awful grind these secrets, then titan stones after.
How much have Flex have you done?
Managed to join a group and get the first 2 quarters done, got a neckpiece which is pretty sweet
Ugh Sha of Pride Heroic, you bore me!
Spent about 3 weeks wiping again and again on this SOAB, couple of 1% wipes thrown in for good measure but generally we can consistently get him to Unleash, at that point though the tactics go out the window and the raid builds so much pride so fast from being silly that we wipe due to MC.

Is it wrong that I'm starting to think you're better off working like 5 hours overtime at work and buying the boost for a level 60 toon rather than spending the 50+ hours levelling, plus profession time and that endless, mind numbing gear up phase to LFR and then LFR progression?
Profession boost can save you over 20k gold, gear boost + timeless isle basically gets you into ToT LFR straight away and then it's a few items into SoO. That's probably about 80-100 hours grinding you're saving yourself and you still get the levelling process to learn the major abilities from 1-60. Plus you get all the mount training and stuff which saves you a bit of cash.
That £40 price tag still putting me off though

IIRC it used to be double that
Indeed it was. I did it while it was 6000. That was a real ball ache.
Sorry Munimentum but I'm dead against paying for levelling in any MMO so I'd rather level the character manually.
I probably won't use my WOD boost out of sheer principle.
As far as I'm concerned the bots have every right to be there now. Blizzard have totally toasted their stance up on the moral high ground.
You might laugh but we have Gala/IJ down already, it's just Sha that's proving a bit of a roadblock. Not a good raid last night though - five wipes on HC Immerseus before he went down. Clearly certain minds were elsewhere.

Just dont stop moving tute thats the only way to stop the pride from wiping you
It can be a pain to start with but believe me there is some more challenging bosses just round the corner, my pet hate boss being a holy pala is IJ.........

I like how they are addressing ability bloat. I would have liked them to go even further, but at least they are doing something.
I might even resub for WoD if they go ahead with all that.

they are also removing the profession bonuses to combat, so no more JC only gems, JC only enchants, inscriptions etc, no more alch bonuses. Professions will prob just offer cosmetic bonuses and fun things.
Will be a relief to not have to worry about having to min/max professions
