Of course now that you put such a cute pet in the game and associate it with the keyfob, I was told we are getting one for each account..... /sigh.

Question. 3 accounts 3 keyfobs I ordered 2 of them under my Bnet account yet want it attach 1 to my sons account so he can also get the pet. Is there an issue with this?

Also if I attached the keyfob and then remove the keyfob do I still get to keep the pet?

Thanks for the help. My wife thanks you for the pets.... >.<

Multiple accounts can share an authenticator.

You can also reuse them if you detach them from one and wish to apply them solely to another.

The pet, however - disappears if the authenticator is removed.

Q u o t e:


Does the pet come back if the authenticator is then re-attached? For iPhone-based authenticators, it's recommended to remove the authenticator before software updates. I'm glad I did on my last update, because the update clobbered my phone and reset everything. I'd hate to lose the pet for good on the next software update.


Yes, if you re-enable one - it should.

Orlyia, if I may...

What happens if you attach the Authenticatorand get the pet, which pushes your total to 75. Then, you get the Achievement and pet, and remove the Authenticator? Do you lose both pets? Will a GM come to my house and poke me in the eye?


Wow, really good question, and I'm not entirely sure.

Hopefully NO ONE will deactivate the protection the authenticator offers - Please guys - please don't do that.
