Nothing bad happens. All your characters, all your materials, literally everything gets transferred over.

I don’t recall if it’s free only once. It certainly isn’t free all the time so it’s likely that you do get a free transfer for the first timers

Edit: As a side note it costs 1800 gems to transfer

alright thank you. i talked to a friend who said i didnt need to transfer. i did it anyway but still nice to know. i dont mind dropping money on this game. so if i want to do it later im fine with it costing. the devs deserve it.

Transferring servers is only neccessary if you want to fight on a different WvW server. Otherwise, everyone is on the same set of servers, either the NA set or the European set.
(Would love some oceanic servers at some point)

If I remember correctly you get 1 free transfer if you upgrade a free account to a paid account. Which is because you don’t get to choose your server when you create a free account so you might get stuck on one you don’t like.

After that you have to pay for it and you can only transfer once every 7 days.

Your server only matters for World vs. World – everything else is shared between servers (but only in your region – if you’re in NA you can never play with people in EU and vice versa). So it doesn’t matter too much what server you’re on unless you’re really serious about WvW.

(And as I think you’ve found everything comes with you when you transfer – all your characters, your items, your achievements, everything. Which also means you can only have characters on 1 server at a time.)

False, free account can choose server at start, so it isn’t the reason why they got a free transfer token.

It’s actually true. When you buy HOT, if you have a free account, you get a free server transfer.

I definitely didn’t get to choose one when I created my free account, but that was just a few days after they were introduced so it’s possible it’s been changed since then.

I actually don’t know what server it’s on because I can’t open the transfer menu or the WvW menu (still haven’t gotten to level 60) and I don’t know where else it’d tell me.

I see, I only create a free account a month later and it allow me to choose a server.
