I’m trying to get onto TC to do WvW with friends, I have more than enough gems and am able to transfer to other non-full servers but even at non peek hours (3-5am EST) It still seems like it’s full. Though it goes back and forth from the bottom of the list to second to last.

Are their good times to try and get on?
I know they up the server population around events but it doesn’t seem like it went up this time.
Do they lock down after a while and never change from full?

Once a server reads a “full” server population it does lock down, so you wouldn’t be able to transfer to it. The best you can do is keep an eye on it and once it changes to “high” try and move over.

What I mean by ‘lock’ is does it stay at full even if it’s not.
But this still does answer my question so thanks ^^

No, the population status will update once there’s been a significant enough change in density. Unfortunately, like I said, it’s a watching and waiting game to try and get in.

A friend got in to TC within the last hour, so it does happen.
