Guild Wars 2

In the past (before the Guesting and Megaserver systems) paying the 1000-1800 gems to transfer a server got you a “full package”, i.e. you bought with gems the right to play all game modes on a certain server.

These days paying to transfer is relevant only to 1 game mode and that’s WvW. I am wondering should the cost to transfer servers remain as high as it is when it affects only 1 game mode?
Please note that I’m not asking for the costs to be removed, just lowered to a more reasonable rate.

Yes it should remain the same. Why lower it? A big part of why people change servers is primarily WvW. I was with a rather large guild that switched servers JUST for WvW. You are correct that that a server transfer does only effect one game mode, but that doesn’t mean that the work invloved in changing a server is any less. Which is why the price is what it is.
