is there any sort of lvl restrictions on summoning chars with the buddy summon option?


read the faq, and didn't find anything on it.

Thanks, Soranam!

A quick breakdown of all summoning Recruit-A-Friend requirements is as follows:

  • Veteran and recruit character must of the same faction and on the same realm
  • Summoning target must be below level 61
  • To summon a linked veteran or recruit through the Friends List interface, the target must be first added to this list through the normal script command (/friend <charactername>)


And here's the related restrictions:

  • Linked character summoning will no longer be available once an account link breaks
  • Each summon possesses a one-hour cooldown
  • Although the ability to be summoned ceases at level 61, characters of this level or above may still summon their linked veteran/recruit as long as the summoning target is level 60 or lower (and an account link is still active)
  • Characters on accounts which are not BC- or WotLK-enabled may not be summoned to BC- or WotLK-specific zones


And, as Soranam also noted, this information (and more) may indeed be found within our FAQ, but you may have to poke around a bit for it. :)

Hope this helps, though!
