I guess I should have seen this coming, but having never done a beta before, I didn't know. When I tried to 'account copy' a character over to the Beta, it failed multiple times. Still hasn't worked. However, it did wipe my ENTIRE collection of Broken Isles pets and replaced them with my live account pets. RIP Elden the Elderhorn.

Ah, yea. Character/account-data copying can be quite the shock if you're unaware that it overrides your Beta collection.

I have to make a mental note to cage any new pets I collect while testing, and then copy data/characters over. It's a hassle but at least now you can test with your full roster!

So account copy is technically working? I tried as well but only get the "Copy failed" error after a minute or so. It never worked in the past, either, and I'm thinking it might be because of the region. Are you both playing on US servers?

Thanks for the warning. I caged everything I could before copying my account data.

I was able to successfully copy one character over to the beta yesterday, but still get the failed error as well.

Just persevere and hopefully you will get one across soon!

Character copy works fine, and solved most pet problems thanks to caging
Account copy is the one giving me trouble still. But well, it's beta ^^
