Guild Wars 2

Unfortunately, my guild is on one the servers getting utterly dominated every week in WvW, where one server controls 95% of the map pretty much 100% of the time. The good pvp/wvw guilds have already left, and we don’t really see any reason to suffer by staying.

So before we get so flustered as to quit, we’ve decided to try another server — but my question is what happens to your guild upgrades, guild bank (and contents), karma and such when you move? I’ve read several conflicting statements, and haven’t found the ‘official’ details. Anyone know, or able to point me to the info?

Thanks in advance

Hate to break it to you but if you switch servers you don’t keep the influence or upgrades cross server.
Back when the game first released I started on Fort Aspenwood and gained about 500 influence in the guild and bought and upgrade. It did NOT carry over onto Tarnished Coast. So I wound up switching back to FA and the influence I gained while on TC didn’t carry either.

That said, I don’t know if the guild bank operates if you jump servers.

P.S. I don’t know if this changed post release though.

Hi Morpeth

Sadly Bear is correct. The way it works is that a guild can exist on more than one server, therefore all your influence is server based, and you cannot actually move the guild itself (as it exists on all servers).

This means if you move servers, none of your upgrades etc will exist on the server you move to so you will have to start anew. This includes the bank as you will not even have a bank on the new server as it will not be researched.

Info above was taken from another post on the same topic, sorry i cant find it else i would link for you

To official wiki has the following to say:
’
A guild and/or its features cannot be transferred to a different world. Influence collected and upgrades developed are tied to the world it was earned on.
