World of Warcraftadded an item players can buy with Paracausal Flakes that allow them to easily transfer the currency to different characters. This item was hotfixed intoWorld of Warcraftrecently and is already available for players.
Paracausal Flakes are the primary currency earned through completing Time Rifts–one of theheadlining features ofWorld of WarcraftPatch 10.1.5, Fractures in Time. Players can purchase minions, mounts, cosmetics, and other collectibles using the Paracausal Flakes they earn by restoring the timeline alongside Soridormi and Chromie.

Now, players can easily transfer Paracausal Flakes between their characters with the Paracausal Crate. This Blizzard account-bound item can be purchased from Shi Everbreeze, the Pandaren weapons and armor vendor in Thaldraszus, for 500 Paracausal Flakes. This item can then be traded to any other character on the same account, after which it can be opened to reclaim all 500 Paracausal Flakes. This enables players to shift around their Flakes at a 1:1 exchange rate, ensuring they can easily consolidate their currency toget theWorld of Warcraftmountsor other rewards they want.
Normally, a quality-of-life feature like this would have been included in later patches to make farming Time Rifts easier. However,WoWadded the Paracausal Crate a week after Fractures in Time launched, meaning it was an idea the developer wanted to implement immediately. With tons of players still doingTime Rifts inWorld of Warcraft, now is the perfect time for players to earn the rewards they want.
Many players are unsurprisingly glad to have thisquality of life feature added so quickly inWorld of Warcraft. Time Rifts have tons of amazing rewards to earn in them, but farming Paracausal Flakes on a single character can be mind-numbing after a while. Using the Paracausal Crate, players can switch between alts to complete high-reward weekly quests and earn their favorite cosmetics much faster.
That said, this new item does beg the question of whyWorld of Warcrafthandles currencies the way it does. Many players have been asking Blizzard to make all currencies account-wide for years–WoW’s new Trading Post featureeven has all characters share the same wallet of Traders Tender, proving it has the technology to do so. WhileWorld of Warcraftdoesn’t seem to have plans to make such a change in the near future, these players hope it happens someday. In the meantime, they can at least rest easy knowing their Paracausal Flakes can be easily exchanged between characters.
