PSA: WoW Classic Season Of Mastery Name And Server Reservations Start Today

World of Warcraft Classic's Season of Mastery begins November 16, but players with an active subscription or game time on their account can reserve their character name and server of choice starting today.

To reserve a name, you need to have installed the WoW Classic game client and then navigate to whichever Season of Mastery server you wish to make a character on. Season of Mastery servers will be noted in the server list. Name reservations for North American servers will begin at 6 PM PST.

Only a certain number of names can be reserved per server before that server becomes closed for character reservations, so if you have your mind set on one, be sure to get in early. There are a total of eight servers available for North American players to choose from, and servers will open up to more characters once Season of Mastery officially launches.

Players will be able to have a grand total of 50 WoW Classic characters shared across Season of Mastery and original WoW Classic servers. Players can have an additional 50 characters for both Burning Crusade Classic and the current Shadowlands expansion.

Season of Mastery will bring various changes to WoW Classic, including more difficult raid bosses, a faster content rollout schedule, additional resource nodes in the open world, and more. It won't, Blizzard confirmed, include same-faction battlegrounds, a feature added for Burning Crusade Classic. Despite bosses having much more health and additional mechanics, Blizzard also won't be doing any class balance updates.

In other WoW news, Blizzard recently revealed Shadowlands' patch 9.2, Eternity's End. The upcoming update will be the end of the Shadowlands saga and bring with it the return of class-based Tier sets, a new raid, and more.
