Hello all,

We’d like to submit you a question haunting us; We’re a small guild on a Seafarer’s Rest and we’d like to transfer our accounts (and thus our guild) to another server.

We already know that the current pool of influence will be lost as it’s gained per world.

But what happens to the already “built” upgrades (Politics 3, Economy 3, Guild stash and such)? Will those survive the transfer or is everything lost as soon as we change worlds?

Thanks for your answers (and even more so if an Arena staff member answers.)

Ps: I think the question is clear, but if it isn’t feel free to ask for more information, I’ll answer as best as I can.

All upgrades are gone. You will start with zero influence and zero upgrades. So make sure you get your guildstash empty before the upgrade (or alternatvily have one account remain who brings the content over when you have develloped enough influence for it.

Technically, the upgrades aren’t “gone”, they remain (along with any unspent influence) on the original server. Anyone in the guild who doesn’t move, or anyone who moves back to that server later, will find them still there.

Guesting won’t give you access to the original server’s bank/upgrades either. You keep access to your home world’s stuff while guesting.

You start on the new server with no influence, and no upgrades, and no access to anything from the other server.

This thread helped me too so thank you.

Say some members of a guild move server and others decide to stay, all remaining in the same guild. If the ones that moved buy the guild stash upgrade, will they have access to the same bank tab? I.e. will they share the same storage space and stored items?

No, it will be a separate bank – in no way connected to the one left behind on the original server.

To my understanding it works like this. Your guild, just like your name exist on all servers from the beginning. You earn rewards and exp for your guild by doing deeds, gaining renown and so forth on the server. Think of each server as having an empty fort that belongs to your guild, so in order to build upon that fortress you must go there and build on it. In other words your guild exist on every server but not its rewards. You could load up characters to carry your guild bank items over but then you would have to earn the actual bank and have that stuff stay on holding toons till you get your guild bank back.

Its kind of like the Twilight zone where you wake up in another dimension and no one you have gone to battle with or fought for knows you.
