Question about torrenting the client

4 posts in this topic

I have Charter internet in the United States, and they're known to be sticklers about illegal torrenting and whatnot. So, is it ok to torrent the Legion files (or any other expansion for that matter), or is that illegal/not allowed? I would rather not have to download through direct links if I can help it. 

 

Thank you.

Seeding World of Warcraft game files is not against the law. They can freely be downloaded and shared by anyone.

When you are finished downloading the torrent, then

delete this file:
  Interface/FrameXML/SecureCapsule.lua
delete this folder:
  Interface/Addons/Blizzard_StoreUI


This fixes not being able to trade or mail gold or items to your alts, or anybody ingame. You find details and explanation in the bugtracker:

Also, rightclick the game folder, uncheck the readonly flag and press Apply / Ok.  uTorrent makes it readonly, and causes the "CAS failed to initialize issue":

removed Interface/Addons/Blizzard_GMChatUI, this should not be deleted
