Free Transfers Available to Orien and Sarlona February 8th-28th

[mikarddo]

I respectfully disagree with your last statement. Of course, each player must evaluate their personal pros and cons regarding transfer. You mention the offset of loss by transfering goodies from all the other servers. I propose this: Create a character on each server. Get the account goodies your account has opened from past purchases (e.g. from expansion packs). Do a free transfer to either Sarlona or Orien. Consolidate the goodies just as you proposed. THEN put all of those goodies on one character on the new server. Pay the 2495 point cost for a character Xfer back to your original server. Basically, one does everything you proposed above, but for 2495 points you get to keep ALL of your current home server benefits. Which is the better value? I know what it is for me.

That is obviously a matter of individual perspective, I agree. So it is someone each and every person has to evaluate for themselves.

Good point - need to do some crafting on home server and send a care package to Sarlona/Orien!

I did a bunch of crafting on Sarlona Livmo on duel augment slot items. Then slotted them with my favorite mixes. I'm also sending Orien Livmo some Sentient Weapons, since I'm Sentient poor there.

Today I'm loading up a raid toon over on G-Land to send to Orien from an alt account for instant raiding. Plus some mats and plat. For a short time I will use that toon as a quest opener, since Orien Livmo still on 1st life.

[NemesisAlien]

Yes! finally I can send my things over to orien, this is going to take a lot of work.

Any of you running an active version of Trade Wars I can get in on?

1) Is the FREE option just ONE transfer? Even though the title is Free TransferS to the 2 worlds, the next line says: Read more about A free character transfer window to Orien and Sarlona beginning February 8th. (A character transfer), so is that only one free one?

2) If I have no character slots left open on Orien, will I be able to move additional characters to that server? or do I need to delete toons on the Orien/Salorna server.

3) I have characters on Salorna that I want to move to Orien, will the free transfer allow that option, or is it only the other servers that can transfer to either Orien/Salorna?

That's all

Thanks in advance.

1. I plan on moving multiple toons to and fro.
2. You need open slots.
3. I'm moving a toon from Sarlona to Orien.

1) Transfers are free, not just a single one.
2) You don't need open slots. HOWEVER, if you transfer excess toons, you will be asked at the character selection screen to select the toons you want to play with (up to the number of slots you legitimately have) - the ones you don't select will be unavailable until you make room. This will allow you to transfer a mule, select it as one of the toons you want to use, remove the stuff you've brought over, and then delete it.
3) Should be OK.

I am not sure if I would laugh, cry or simply shake my head tomorrow if SSG turned on free transfers everywhere for 2 weeks.

They could make it a VIP feature.

I have toons on every server. Had them there for so many years to switch up and try other servers and see how the masses were out there. I will tell you, if you are thinking about running to another server to get away from elitists, good luck! They are on all servers. If you're looking to get away from the so called drama on your server, guess what, its everywhere. I laugh when someone in a guild says he doesn't like drama but they stay in a guild that looses members all the time as evident by the guild level dropping and raising all the time. THAT'S DRAMA folks.
I will be flooding these 2 servers with probably 100 toons each, wont that be fun! Gland alone I am at 52 slots of 54( 2 over the limit due to transfers from HCL.) Its time for all of you to cry wolf. Or just cry, that's OK with me too.

Transfers

I transferred 1 character, and while on another alt to make room, I get this.



I duly go to the email, and there is nothing there. Nada, zip, zero.

don't worry, until the transfer is complete, you may get some ban message. but you are not banned.

I believe you cannot be active on your account when a transfer is in process.

With so many people using the service, if you transferred a character, and that character is in a long queue, then you would have to wait till the transfer is complete or suffer the message you received.

Of course I'm guessing, but I'll stand by my guess in the mean time.

[Zavina]

That's the thing. I always wait for the transfer email to come through. Got the email, then duly logged in (and the character was actually from HC S6).

[Luthor_Darkhammer]

Yeah, I can't transfer. When I click on it, it shows no worlds listed, yet I have toons on every server lol. What a surprise it's broken

[Mordek]

So I did a transfer from Argo to Orien and I am still waiting on the transfer Email. I've transferred in the past and never waited this long usually 20 - 30 min tops. Also when you go to the transfer screen to do transfers now its completely blank. Anyone else getting this?

See my comment above. You're not alone

[Luthor_Darkhammer]

I got the confirmation email and now it says I'm banned lol

[Coffey]

There are 20 Days to transfer. I would wait some time before jumping.
