WoW Forever: shaman totems lost in the crash are restored

When the WoW Forever servers crashed on the evening of 9 November, some shamans logged back in to find one of their totems gone. Players reported losing a Fire Totem, as well as Earth and Water totems; the shaman who started the forum thread had seen no reports of a lost Air totem.

The player who raised the problem described it as losing a whole part of the class, and there was no way to get a new totem. The class trainer did not give a replacement, the quest that hands out the Fire Totem could not be done again, and support's lost item process turned the request down because the totem had not been sold to a vendor.

In the early hours of 11 November, Blizzard community manager Kaivax replied that a fix has been deployed to all regions. Shamans who lost a totem in the crash should now find it back in their bags.

If you are in the game right now and your totem is still missing, make sure you have a free bag slot, then log out and back in to receive it. This fix covers totems only; for other progress lost in the same crash, such as skills bought from a trainer, Blizzard has still not said whether anything will be restored, as covered in our earlier report.
