1. I've using the same account name on Elysium as I used on Nostalrius. What will happen?

Your Elysium will account will have _e added to the end of it while your Nostalrius account name will remain as it was. If your account name was EXAMPLE, it will be EXAMPLE_e from now on.


What happens if the old account name has max characters ? I have a hunch you'll have an issue here. And no, I am not trolling.

If your WoW installation is still intact, go inside the WTF folder. You'll find all the account names you've ever used in there.

Otherwise you'll have to wait until Elysium announces how account retrieval will be done. Please head over to their forums.
