So I cant reset my password, and dont know how to set up 2 step auth.

[Misunderstood_Tauren 0]

Everytime I try to reset my password, elysium sends me en email that directs me to the webpage that only requests an email be sent to change my password, its an endless cycle that doesnt actually change my password.

 

Also, when setting up 2 step authenticator, could someone please explain like im 5? I have no idea how to do this... I also dont have a mobile device

the ingame command to change password is .account password oldpassword newpassword newpassword

 

Works fine just to be safe w/ yourself when you try it or go alone inside an instance and type it on /say

Yep, the .account command wasn't working a few weeks ago, but I tried it now and it works.

Same thing but ingame command still is not working for me.

Doesn't work for me. I get the 'old password is not correct' error.

When, in fact, I have used that password to log into the control panel.

Anyone else?

I've seen a couple of cases where when someone tried to change their password in-game, they received an error that the old password was incorrect because they were preceding it with the # character. Don't include that character; it's just provided in the instructions to indicate a variable where the variable = oldpassword or newpassword.

I made a guide to use 2 step Auth on your PC instead of a mobile device. Check this thread https://forum.elysium-project.org/topic/30750-how-to-use-2-step-authentication-wo-having-a-phone/

I had the same issue with the e-mail loop, but i found out that once you logout on website and then click the link from the e-mail it works. well for me it did so gl :)

This partially defeats the purpose of 2FA. Just don't do it. It's stupid.

Not at all, most hacks occur from players using the same password on other websites. Even if your keylogged as long as you don't type your email password in everyday your account is still protected. Would do a bit of research before you spout off nonsense.

I'm having the same problem with the webpage. Email sends me to the control panel to ask to send the email again. Endless circle.

 

Also tried the .account password ingame and no luck. says my PW is incorrect.

As for the 2 step auth. you have to download Google Authentication, and link it to your email. the same email your WOW account is attached to i believe. Then everytime you log on to the website, or log on from a different IP (depending what 2 step auth. you choose) open the app (on computer or phone) and type the 6digit number in the website and you'll log in.

Did you try out the thing i sad earlier in this thread?

Logout from website then click on the reset link in your e-mail.
