How to use Warband Bank in The War Within

Are you far from civilization and wondering how to use Warband Bank without going to town and visiting a banker in The War Within? Then, you are in the right place!

Although it would be fantastic, the ability to use Warbank anywhere in Azeroth from the beginning is unfortunately unavailable. However, we are here to help you, so let’s get started! First, you must complete a short storyline called Warbanding Together, which consists of five quests. The first one will appear in your quest log as you enter the world with one of your Warband members in Patch 11.0:

Once you complete the quest chain (which only needs to be done once), you will unlock the Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor spell. This spell is available to all characters on your account and can be found in the General Spellbook. Upon activation, the Warband Bank Convergence will remain active for 10 minutes before disappearing for 4 hours.

Since 4 hours per character seems excessive, there is a special achievement that can help you reduce the cooldown of the Warband Bank Distance Inhibitor. It is called Quintessential Quintet, and you can earn it by keeping five max-level characters on your account. If you have fewer than five max-level ones, the cooldown remains at 4 hours. However, once you obtain the Quintessential Quintet by meeting the requirement, the cooldown will be reduced to 2 hours. Although still somewhat inconvenient, it is a real boon.

Currently, the entire Warband Bank feature is disabled due to a critical bug that Blizzard is working on. We hope to have everything back to normal soon, so stay tuned!
