When reserve name will be open?
I’d like to know this too, this topic often gets swept under the rug
“it doesn’t make you spend hours preparing to have fun, rather than having fun”
Guild missions say otherwise.
Curious about this as well, despite not honestly caring about any of the names I have saved from GW.

How do you know if a name has been reserved and not simply used already?
the error prompt at character creation is different for both scenarios
“it doesn’t make you spend hours preparing to have fun, rather than having fun”
Guild missions say otherwise.
Any character name in existence prior to July 31st in Guild Wars was put on reserve. When you link the accounts, I imagine that the player was supposed to have access to them the day of Headstart. However, it seems like there was either a switch the wasn’t flipped, or a hiccup in their plans that prevented them from giving access to the names on time.
