| Rollback Policy Update for all Diablo® III Regions(1) | Category: GeneralAugust-1-2013 10:11 AM PDT (9 years ago) ![]() | |
| Over the past year, we’ve made some changes to our account rollback policy for players in the Asia, Americas, and Europe regions. These updates were an added step in protecting the in-game economy from the noted rise of false compromised account claims by players attempting to duplicate items. To date, the policy has been effective in helping to reduce the number of duplicated items in the game. On August 6, we’ll be further updating the policy to include a cap on gold and commodities that are restored as part of the process, adding further protections for the game economy. [What’s Changing Starting Tuesday, August 6] All character equipment (including weapons and armor) restored via the Diablo III rollback service will continue to be bound to the restored account. The restored items cannot be traded with other players or posted on the auction house, but they can still be shared with other characters on the account and sold to merchant NPCs. Additionally, the below changes to gold and commodities restoration will also occur:
As always we are committed to continuing to monitor the overall health and economy of the game and make additional tweaks if necessary. [Protecting Your Account] Considering that the rollback service is intended to help players whose accounts have been compromised, we obviously wish that no one ever needed to use it. The best way to help protect yourself from account compromise is to secure your PC and Battle.net account, for example by adding a Battle.net Authenticator. While no security measure is completely foolproof, we’ve often found that many accounts are compromised a second time simply because players do not take any action to protect themselves after being compromised the first time.
