Guild Wars 2

Hearte.6852:

After transferring yesterday morning, prior to the update, I was given the standard 24 hour waiting period. Yet this morning, after the update, my wait time was increased to 7 days. I would never have transferred had I known this.

Direct quote from the News and Announcements thread: “After the update, players will be able to transfer worlds once every 7 days instead of once every 24 hours.”

For those of us that transferred yesterday to circumvent this horrible system to obtain Obsidian Shards, we’re all stuck on foreign servers for a week. From my submitted ticket: “I’m afraid though that we don’t have any way to actually by-pass the cooldown period on transfers. This does appear to have affected all transfers retro-actively so you would actually need to remain on your current realm until the cooldown is up.”

It’s a shame this whole issue wasn’t addressed a long time ago.

It happened to me, but funny thing was, i transfferd, had the 24 hours cooldown gone, and i was actually free to transfer , but i didnt, cause i still needed some more karma so i thought id just stay and use my transfer next time, but on the first of Nov, the cool down was up again, though it wasnt for 7 days, it was on 5 days cooldown. Its kinda stupid xD I had the cooldown gone and its back up. Oh wellll

Omg Thank you so much!

really? its uncontested? im gona transfer now if it is 100% sure

I need shards too, is it still up in Elona reach? =/ Been waiting for it for days now. Always contested in my server.
