Match the exact character row
The same class/level can have different conversion options by mode. Blizzard's notice specifically distinguishes online Expansion characters from Offline and Classic-to-Expansion paths.
| Character state | Blizzard's dated note | Before acting |
|---|---|---|
| Online Expansion (Ladder or Non-Ladder) | Conversion to Reign of the Warlock stops starting November 16 | Check patch deployment and character's actual partition |
| Offline character | Conversion remains listed | Read the in-game prompt and keep a separate backup if supported |
| Classic to Expansion (LoD) | Conversion remains listed | Confirm destination and edition before accepting |
| Unknown or different mode | Not established by this summary | Stop and open the full Blizzard notice/support route |

Pause at the confirmation screen
A forum reply may describe a different patch or mode. Do not accept a conversion while unsure which character partition is selected or which direction the conversion runs.
- Record platform, region, patch/build, online/offline, Ladder state, Classic/Expansion and Hardcore/standard.
- Open Blizzard's full current conversion notice and verify the November 16 rule against the live patch state.
- Read every in-game confirmation line and identify the source and destination partition.
- If the prompt differs from the article, cancel without accepting and consult current official support.
- After any conversion you independently choose to make, verify the destination character list before deleting or changing the source.
- For community advice, include the exact mode and patch but omit BattleTag and account details.

Frequently asked questions
Does Patch 3.4 block every character conversion?
No. Blizzard's notice names specific online Expansion-to-Reign-of-the-Warlock conversions and preserves other listed paths.
Can I convert an online Expansion character after November 16?
The dated notice says that path will no longer be available starting then; check whether the announced patch is live in your region.
Can GamerWin check my character?
No. The worksheet only records what you enter and cannot access Battle.net or game characters.
