One World of Warcraft: The War Within Pre-Patch Feature Isn't Unlocked Automatically

Highlights

  • Unlock the Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor via a quick quest to access your Warband Bank anywhere in WoW every two hours.
  • Purchase tabs on the Warband Bank for extra storage, with costs ranging from 1,000 to over 3,000,000 gold in WoW.
  • Despite a temporary issue in the Pre-Patch, fans can still prepare for the Warband Bank’s return by completing the Warbands quest.

As a dedicated World of Warcraft (WoW) gamer with years of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel both excited and a little frustrated by the latest development in the game: the introduction of the Warband Bank and its Distance Inhibitor.

After the Pre-Patch for “The War Within” in World of Warcraft, when you log in, you’ll need to finish a quick quest first. This quest will grant you the Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor, enabling you to use your Warband Bank from any location across the game world. Although the standard Warband Bank becomes accessible immediately, devoted WoW players must acquire this helpful spell and gather gold to purchase its tabs for expanded storage.

As an avid fan of “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” I’m thrilled about the recent addition of the Warband Bank to the game’s alt-friendly Warbands system. Personally, I find this account-wide storage solution incredibly convenient. Now, instead of juggling items between my various characters, I can keep all my non-soulbound goods in one place – easily accessible and ready for sharing amongst my alts whenever I need them.

As an avid player of World of Warcraft, I was thrilled when I discovered the Warband Bank, but there was one aspect that required a little extra effort on my part. The Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor isn’t automatically unlocked, unfortunately. This account-wide spell enables me to summon a portal and access my Warband Bank for ten minutes with a two-hour cooldown per character. To unlock this convenient feature, I embarked on a brief questline.

Warband Banks in WoW: The War Within Pre-Patch

  • The Warband Bank is an account-wide bank fans can access from any character.
  • The bank has 5 available tabs with 98 inventory slots each, each of which must be purchased with gold.
  • Players can complete the Warbands: Warbanding Together quest to unlock the Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor, allowing them to access their Warband Bank anywhere in the world for 10 minutes every two hours.

After completing this brief mission, fans must purchase additional tabs for their Warband Bank using real money. The initial tab with 98 slots is priced at a modest 1,000 gold, but subsequent purchases come with increasing gold fees. In total, players will spend over 3 million gold to acquire all five tabs. This single expense grants expanded storage capacity for their entire World of Warcraft account.

5 2,500,000

Regrettably, the Warband Bank is missing from the World of Warcraft: The War Within Pre-Patch at present, owing to a significant glitch. Rest assured, Blizzard is diligently addressing the problem and will bring back the Warband Bank as soon as possible. In the interim, players can explore Tanaris and engage in Warbands: Warbanding Together to ready themselves for the Warband Bank’s eventual comeback.
