Authentication problems continue
We saw it last night, and the problems have once again appeared this afternoon. Authentication isn’t working as intended for non-Battle.net accounts. This means if you haven’t transformed your WoW account into a Battle.net account, you’re probably not going to be able to get into the game easily.
The transformation process can be initiated at us.battle.net. It only takes a few minutes and is relatively painless. Converting your account to Battle.net is not required at this time, but I don’t think anyone should be surprised if it is soon.
Malkorix has said that there are problems, and they are aware of the problems, but don’t have any ETA on a fix at this time. He also makes a point to note that converting your account to Battle.net is only a reported and unconfirmed by Blizzard solution. However we can say that we haven’t seen any issues with Battle.net accounts.
We’ll update this post when we have more information.
