Discord World of Warcraft EU Lockout Sharing

WoW Lockout Sharing

Hosted daily by @ywi - Total Shares: 85,000+
Updated: October 23, 2025

🎯 What is Lockout Sharing?

Lockout Sharing in World of Warcraft allows multiple characters or players to benefit from the same raid lockout.
A player with a saved lockout can invite others to their group.

🔹 Example:

If the 9th boss drops a mount, I invite you to a lockout where the first 8 bosses are already killed—you join and directly kill the 9th boss.
✅ The host does not need to be present, making the process automatic.


📝 How it Works

📢 Join In-Game Communities

This is required to access sending whispers cross-faction.
It is also where you can track if Ywishare is online through the member list.

To join a community:

  1. Open the Guilds & Communities tab (default key: J)
  2. Click "Create or Join Community"
  3. Enter either of the following invite codes: - 74rKEMRSgEm - 2ZrL7VbSoWp - rjR7x9eULA2 - GGjjWk4Hxzj - wWBAxJEcZeg

🚀 Requesting a Lockout

  1. Make sure you're not in a party and standing outside the instance you want to join.
  2. Whisper /w Ywishare-Illidan !id to receive a lockout.
  3. Follow the instructions provided in chat.

🚦 Before Entering the Instance

  • Normal Mode: !normal or !nhc (default setting if Normal & HC are available)
  • Heroic Mode: !heroic or !hc

👥 After Entering the Instance

  • Want to invite more players? You can suggest invite your friends before entering or else type !lead and enter the instance — you’ll then have 30 seconds to list your group in lfg or invite friends. (Raid: Legacy permits cross-faction listings)
  • Otherwise, type + in chat to confirm you're done — the character will leave automatically in 15 seconds.

🔍 Optional Commands

  • !q or !queue To check your current position in the queue.
  • !leave Removes you from the queue.
  • !plus Learn how to mail gold if you’d like to support hosting and gain access to priority queue.

❓ FAQ

🟢 When are you online?
I’m online most of the time. You can also check my status anytime through the member list of any in-game community.
🛡️ Is this safe?
Yes, lockout sharing is a standard feature since Mists of Pandaria. Fully compliant with Blizzard’s Terms of Service, shares occured commonly through weakauras though I now instead use Kamian's latest sharing addon: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/lockoutshare-y/.
💸 Is this free?
Free, always! I despise the very low mount drop rates, especially raid mounts — it's nice making it easier for others :)
🛠️ Adding More Shares?
I believe I’ve covered all available mount instances. If I’ve overlooked any, please let me know!

⚠️ Limitations:

  • Instances like Dragon Soul, Mogu'shan Vaults, Throne of Thunder, and Mythic Raids can’t be shared due to Blizzard’s restrictions.
  • Only Normal/Heroic raids (Siege of Orgrimmar and later) and Mega Dungeons with flexible lockouts are shareable.
  • Dungeons cannot be shared unless they're a Mythic mega-dungeon; any other difficulty is not supported.

📦 Requests
Contact me to add specific instances for transmog, pets, quests, or possible mounts.

❌ Why do I see "No player named Ywishare-Illidan is currently playing"?
If you see this message, please check the following:
- Make sure you've joined my in-game community if you’re on an Alliance character.
If not, you won’t be able to whisper me, and this error will appear even if I’m online.
- If you're on a Horde character or have already joined the community, it means I’m simply offline.
You can check the member list to verify if I'm online/offline.
📩 Why didn’t you reply to my whisper?
I don’t respond to any in-game whispers besides the available cmds — Ywishare is hosted on my second laptop and the chat i send is fully automated through the addon.

💬 Where to Reach Me:

  • I’m most active on Discord — that’s the best place to contact me.
  • I sometimes check in-game communities, but since there are now over 20, Discord is much more reliable.
