Regarding Elysium transfer,

I know my forum credentials and can guess the necessary password or email, but I have forgotten my username. I don't have the nost client installed anymore, so I was wondering how I could solve this.

Generate your token by filling either Username/Password or Username/Email.
If your chose Username/Email, you will receive your token via email. Check your spam folder.
You're limited to an attempt per minute.

So, if you have forgotten your username and no way of retrieving it via WTF, the this = no character restoration??

That's how it is, unfortunately.

Pretty basic... But check recycle bin if you don't clear it out.

Just checked mine the WTF file from March 2015 with all the goodies in it, was just sitting there.

There is data recovery software you can use.

If you still own the hard drive that you had installed the WoW client on, you can run the data recovery software on it, and it will retrieve your client as well as the WTF folder containing your account name.

This process can take a long time and depending on software used, might be annoying to shift through all deleted files to find the one you need.

After Nost I started dual booting Ubuntu, and ended up installing it over Windows.

Recently I started dual booting again. It may be complicated to get the data back, so I'll just start over with a different class, as I started just before the server was shutdown.

Thanks for your input.
