My husband and my friend recently purchased the game, but they are unable to join my server (Crystal Desert), because it’s listed as full. Is there any way for them to join my server?

Thanks, Zaken.

Not to be a complete idiot, but let me see if I have this straight. I need to transfer off of my existing full server in order to play with my friends? Is there a fee associated with server transfers? Also, do you get to chose which server you end up on? Oh, and do all of your characters transfer, or just the one?

Sorry for the noobish questions.

I’m having similar issues – just convinced 3 people to play and they can’t create characters on my server. One friend has been trying for the past 2-3 days now to do a server transfer but the server is perpetually full. I’m starting to really regret convincing these people to spend the money to play this game because it appears that we can’t play together unless I leave to go join them.

No worries about the questions.

Yes, in order to play with your friends right now, you will have to transfer off your server. They are going to have guesting in the future that will allow cross server questing but the system is not in game yet.

There is no fee associated with server transfer but you can only do it once every week.

You do get to choose which server you want to go, provided the server is not “Full”.

I think ( I am not 100% ) all your characters will be transferred to the new server. Sorry, I did the server transfer when I only had one character.

ladeeda, ask your friends to check the server on different hours. I am on one of the most jam packed US server and my friend was able to join me after checking server status for 3 days. Good luck.

Just wanted to confirm that all characters transfer when one does; your entire account is transferred.

You’ll lose guild upgrades, though. Well, not lose, they just won’t travel with you. If you return to your first server in the future, they will still be there, but on your new server, you’ll have to start from scratch on things like bank space.

my friend bought the game to come play with us and he could not make his character on our server so he made it on another server hoping to transfer over in a few hours, He stayed up all night watching for a low time to transfer and after 4 days he is still not with us. He is getting very discouraged and now wishes he had never bought the game.
How much longer till this is fixed and our friends can join their guild on the right servers.
AND i have more friends that want to buy the game but won’t do it if they can’t join our guild.

What can we do, it is a great game that we can’t share please help.

we thought about movin but we will not lose all the work we have put into preparing our guild for our friends

Hello everyone.

Thanks for all the contributions and the questions made.

Yes, when you transfer to a new server, all your characters are transferred in the process and what Corvindi says about the guild upgrades is also true.

Second, we know that sometimes is discouraging to keep on waiting to change the server because that particular one is Full but this happens, as we have heard a great number of positive reports and stories about that; you or your friend/s only need to keep on trying.

Remember as well that in any case we will implement the guesting feature in due time and you will be able to invite friend from different servers to play with you.
