Can I switch toon from blue to red server?

However, I wouldn't be opposed to a one-time option per character from pve-pvp. The issues I see for the pvp server is that if one guild has more players than others, it would exacerbate balance problems if the transfers were to join that guild.

This is where we really run into problems, and it's hard to approach it any way that doesn't mess things up for one group of people or another. If transfers were allowed and a bunch of bluebies switched over just to join Nihilum so they could raid what TMO/FE won't let them on blue, the server suffers. If transfers were allowed on the condition that they not join Nihilum (would never happen, just an example), that would be treating Nihilum unfairly.

What the server really needs is another guild to step up to Nihilum and challenge them for their control of the server. The only blue guilds to even make a guild on red are TMO/FE, who understandably feel a need to spend most of their gaming time with their blue guilds. How to get transfers to want to compete instead of joining the zerg is really the big question.

That sucks. Ill admit im lazy and only play a few hours a day, just dont have the patience for starting over.

Red has an experience bonus so youll be lvl 20 in a couple days

I haven't really had any issues getting a group so far. Granted, I am only level 12 so most of it has been in the forest/crush bone/Commons. I have noticed a lot of newer players like me leveling up though so chances are you will start seeing more people in your range. Do you have a guild? If not you should see about joining a social/leveling guild. Mine has quite a few people in the 10-30 range leveling up in groups.

We would welcome you on red, even though you have to start over. When you factor in the (recently upped) xp bonus on red, it might take less time to get 60 on red with a new character than it would on your 23 blue character.

Would be awesome if instead of a transfer it was a copy. So you can copy one character to the red server (even if the character was stripped it would be cool). Only problem I have with transferring is (and the only reason I haven't really committed any time to red) I'm not really sure I'll like it for the long-term. But I think copying one toon over would lower a lot of that risk without losing the accomplishments on blue, and I'm 100% sure it would drastically increase the population over there (especially since people can play on red and blue at the same time).

Ya I'd never transfer. Maybe copy, but enjoy playing just blue. Playing both was too much to tackle.

I couldn't blame Red players for not liking that idea. You'd have entire guild's come over to gank mobs when they got bored.

seeing how everything including character accounts is worth 5x its weight in blue plat i wouldnt bee too happy about transfers.


grind it out like everyone else. theres no more exp loss on a pvp death, and theres a 50% bonus on top of normal blue exp.

Leveling really isnt hard and to complain about powering through the low levels is just retarted. Thos twinks stay at a certail level, they wont grind up with you. There arent even that many.

You could cap it at a certain level and like Nilbog said he would be for a ONE TIME deal.
