they kept sending me to the battle net login and I cant login because
my password is clobberd :(
I believe they send an email to your registered address with instructions
on how to get a new password. Have you read your email lately?
I went through this about two months ago, when I tried to play on my laptop
over a public WLAN in the train. I got a mail from Blizzard with a link that
allowed me to reclaim my account using my authenticator and then let me set
a new password. To be on the safe side, I typed in the URL of the link
manually instead of following it from the mail.
The biggest delay was that I use greylisting to fight spam and the process
involved mails from two separate Blizzard addresses and they resend their
mails immediately if first delivery fails (too soon for my greylisting
setup) and then only after an hour. So it took me two hours to get my
account working again, but only due to my greylisting. Otherwise it would
have been a matter of two minutes (and likely will be next time, unless they
change their e-mail adresses in the meantime).
Cheers
