🎯 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. I share near 24/7 lockouts daily for faster mount farming.<br>
<br>
By simply whispering Ywishare-Illidan !id You access retail-EU lockouts (instance list available below) , if you're the opposite faction (Alliance) or for status tracking you should join a Ywishare community.
🔹 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.<br> It is also where you can track if Ywishare is online through the member list.
To join a community:
- Open the Guilds & Communities tab (default key:
J) - Click "Create or Join Community"
- Enter either of the following invite codes:

🚀 Requesting a Lockout
- Make sure you're not in a party and standing outside the instance you want to join.
- Whisper

<details> <summary><strong>🟢 When are you online?</strong></summary> <br> I’m online "almost" all of the time. You can also check my status anytime through the member list of any in-game community.<br> Status announcements occur on the Primary in-game community gWL73BKI2G9 (mains only — use other communities for alts) or join Discord: https://discord.com/invite/Q7p98mwSDC/ <br><img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/739ef402-e230-4c20-b69f-da5ba4762c6f"> </details> <details> <summary><strong>🛡️ Is this safe?</strong></summary> <br> Yes, lockout sharing is a standard feature since Mists of Pandaria. Fully compliant with Blizzard’s Terms of Service, I started sharing in 2025 which commonly occured through custom weakauras in 2025, though I now instead use Kamian's latest sharing addon: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/lockoutshare-y/. </details> <details> <summary><strong>💸 Is this free?</strong></summary> <br> Free, forever! Ywishare's been online since Jan/2025 & I really despise the very low mount drop rates, especially raid mounts — it's nice making these hectic farms easier for others :) </details> <details> <summary><strong>❌ Why do I see "No player named Ywishare-Illidan is currently playing"?</strong></summary> <br> If you see this message, please check the following:<br> - Make sure you've joined my in-game community if you’re on an Alliance character. <br> If not, you won’t be able to whisper me, and this error will appear even if I’m online.<br> - If you're on a Horde character or have already joined the community, it means I’m simply offline.<br> You can check the member list to verify if I'm online/offline. </details> <details> <summary><strong>📩 Why didn’t you reply to my whisper?</strong></summary> <br> 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.
- Primary in-game community

⚠️ 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 (Released after > Siege of Orgrimmar) 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 since the lockout can't be extended from the raid tab.
