Understanding HWID ban/ shadow bans

So I got perma banned on my main account that I’ve been playing on for over a year. Got tired of cheaters so I was curious on how easy it was to get them played with the cheats for maybe 3 days. It had been around 4 days not injecting and when I opened up bnet saw that I was perma banned. I tried to than play on my second account but I get the 350 ping made a new account and get the same thing. Just curious if I’m sb or HWID banned.

That guide is really stupid.

Since you used Xmodus, you need to reinstall Windows + reformat drives.
Before that however, you should make a new account and force the shadow ban.
After that you’re going to need to play with a spoofer for about a month.

I understand mostly what your saying and it makes sense with the HWID flags and whatnot.
What's the difference of making a new account with spoofer vs forcing shadow ban on new account and then spoofing?
Also if I use a new PC is any of that necessary?
Thanks for your help sir.

You need to force the shadow regardless.
However, you will not be able to cheat on the shadowed account.

No it's not.

Quick question. If my MW account gets banned am I able to purchase BOCW and play on the same BN? or should I use an ALT BN account to play.

Hi, thanks for all the help -0x41^4, you've really been useful.

I understand everything that's been said but just wanted clarity on one thing which hasn't really been answered clearly by anyone.

So After receiving a permanent ban on an alt account, my main was also SB'd (4th april) Since then to test whether or not i'm HWID flagged or not, i logged in on a fresh account and that is also shadowbanned after one game. The thing i want to know is. Has my SB cycle reset because i logged in on another account? IE will I need to wait an additional 7-14 days (for my main to be un-SB'd) because of logging in on another account?

Thanks in advance!

And then I made a brand new account and it was instantly Perma banned. So I hop back on my main account I was able to play a couple matches and then I got shadow banned once more (3rd time). So my question is, does my shadow band start over or should I just not play it for like a month and then hopefully to work? It’s really random, like if I don’t play for a few days and then log on, I’ll be able to join regular lobbies for a game or 2 and then shadow ban comes back. This all happened within 10 days.

i'd be interested to see if anyone else has this, sounds very similar to the issue i've had.

Yes you have to wait 7-14 days untill your shadowban is over. So if your main got SB at 4th april you need to wait until 11-18 april to get it unshadowbanned

I been banned on my main on 16th of March and all the following accounts I made were instantly shadow banned for 7 days, after that I was able to play normally. One thing I didn't understand is: does the HWID flag has an expiration? If yes how long it last?

Never used cheese or spoofer, just banned for using UnlockAll tool.

Hi this is my first time posting here. So right now I'm waiting for my shadow banned period to go away. After that, can I use x22 cheats along with infinite spoofer? Tnx

Create a new account and ONLY play on it while spoofed to use x22.
Can't use an account that has been shadow banned with cheats for a while.

Reinstall windows + reformat drives.
Create a new account and spoof OR if you don't plan on cheating, wait for the shadow to expire.

OK thanks for that Info I have reinstalled windows to fresh, then redownloaded battlenet again. Imcjust playing proper now totally, so it's been a few days so willing to wait how long will it be do you know? I haven't reformatted any drivers as I'm not sure how to do that would I need to do that after reinstalling windows before making new battlenet. Would you advise reinstalling and doing this again? Thanks

So I have removed the files and cleaned the drive complete wipe is this enough? Thanks

So one last question for ox41^4, so here's what i'm going to do after getting banned on april 7 by using battle log cheats:
1-I will reinstall windows and use revo to delete all tracers
2-I will buy infinite spoofer(preferably from a reseller since it's easier)
3-Then, I will make a whole new account on blizzard and launch warzone when I have activated the spoofer
4-I will use x22 cheats since its the safest and I miss hacking
5- I will play with my new account and try to look legit

My question is, lets say one day I forgot to use the spoofer and I have played 15 days with the new account and cheats; so it should get instant shadow-banned because I was Hwid flagged close to that date right?

How long will it stay like that? Will the Hwid flag go away after a month or so?

Lastly is there any suggestions you have for the mentioned steps above?
Thanks
