Guild Wars 2

Martin Kirstein
Due to community concerns about the effect of free transfers on world versus world, starting on November 1 we are going to change how often players are allowed to transfer worlds. After the update, players will be able to transfer worlds once every 7 days instead of once every 24 hours. We are also actively working on getting the guesting functionality in place. Thank you for your understanding.

I have concerns about whether this will effectively nerf the problem. Please remember, WvW resets every week now which means that they will still be able to change worlds at the start of every week of WvW. I think that people who transfer worlds shouldn’t be able to participate in WvW for a few days (up to a week when WvW returns to 2 week matches). That would put effective punishment on players who change consistently.

I must point out though that I am happy to see the Devs responding to this issue which has been a problem for quite some time.

Thank you.
