Changing realms

So my wife and I are discussing trying another realm however I know the rules state we must both be on the same realm. If we both plan on changing should we wait until we both can log in to change at the same time? I am just nervous about being flagged as having accounts on two realms when we are in fact both changing realms.

To be clear we would NOT be deleting oue characters on the other realm or using a new account but waiting the 12 hours out to choose the new realm.

Thanks in advance

Same realm at same time = good to go.

You can play in all 3 realms as long as the last one of you two logging out and the first one logging in is separated by at least 12 hours. What they don't want you to do is play in different realms within this 12 hour period.

I am not an official source, but I asked about this in discord and I was told (by Clockwork I think) that as long as the 2 accounts are not logged at the same time, either account can be on any realm. If they are logged at the same time, they have to on the same realm.

That would still circumvent the 12-hour realm switch timer if both accounts are played from the same location. You can't just log out of one account and then log into another realm on the other account right away. I mean, it will let you, but you shouldn't do it. Multiple accounts played from the same location have to manually observe the 12-hour realm switch timer. The client only knows how long it's been for the current account you are logged into, but the server knows all.

That's the correct reply. 100 points, PingGuy
