Common Problems

  • I'm getting "world server is down" when I try to log in
  • My character won't log in and it says that the world server is down but my other characters can log in fine

If you're receiving this error on all characters, check the Realm Status page and BlizzardCS Twitter for widespread issues.

If this error happens on only one character, you can resolve it by moving the character. If the issue persists, reset your user interface and try again.
