I logged out and back in and do not get the transfer option on the server select or character select screen. If queues go away then how do we transfer? I can wait to lose my login cache and get a queue but wont be able to if queues go down?

Maybe I am missing something?

Try following the steps listed here:

WoW: Classic – Free Character Migrations

We recently announced that we would be activating Free Character Migrations for select high population Classic realms. It’s been a while since we’ve enabled Character Migrations like this, and we understand that there are bound to be some questions about how this process will work. Starting your Character Migration Unable to start the Free Character Migration While Free Character Migration is in progress Once your Free Character Migration has completed Freq…

The queue is going down slowly. A really, really slow fashion.
So well, even if in 5 minutes there is no queue you can always use the shop button they added… (which by the way will conveniently be used to add a shop to classic in the future lol)

[Stoagy-crushridge]

Would be nice if you gave the option to just delete the mail, I’d honestly transfer right now.

[Vhx-black-dragonflight]

Only Herod / Skeram are currently offering the character migration. I checked queues 10min ago for Faerlina & Herod like I always do nightly, and as soon as I tried getting into Herod I saw the option for character migration, or change realm.

[Dejablue-skeram]

Thanks this was the solution. they have the shop button at logins creena

[Dejablue-skeram]

yeah sorry. I am on Skeram. Apparently the shop button does this if you dont ahve a queue.

Look, do you guys not have phones? This makes perfect sense…DOT DOT DOT

Update 8:30 p.m. PDT
We are working to open the rest of the free character moves that we listed here. We currently plan to open all of the rest at 5:00 p.m. PDT (8:00 p.m. EDT) tomorrow (Thursday, September 5). Thank you for your patience!

[Holycow-uldaman]

Thank you for the update!

[Graff-nathrezim]

And there goes Netherwind, about to get hammered by the influx of people 20-30 levels higher than the people currently on the server. Yay, thanks for penalizing those of us who heeded your warnings of long queues on other servers.

[Hiraeth-smolderweb]

Servers take resource, time and money. Not commiting to more than necessary was a smart move. Something like 20% of the population has stopped playing already.

[Silvara-netherwind]

Since every new server will be ruined by character transfers, if you’re a legitimate new player you might as well start on the new servers opening today and tomorrow. At least there will be a better chance of other players starting with you and to level up with.

[Zel-firetree]

I’m on Grob but I can’t even choose which lower population realm I can go to. Friends and family are on the low server Old Blanchy so I guess I’m sticking to Grob with my 45 rogue.

You appear to be level 34…

[Ironpelt-greymane]

I agree. They need to take Netherwind off the list. We don’t need higher level characters and economic exploiters. The server will likely be trash after transfers. Might as well roll PvE… since our server isn’t ready for 60’s yet…

[Sambrew-tichondrius]

heartseeker bout to be poppin off

[ßôômkin-kiljaeden]

is it only availible for these realms? Or will it be like Retail where you can move to any lower pop server.

[Sd-pagle]

Blizz kind of screwed that up, they should have locked it to server transfers only, no new character creations once you get there until the lock period is over.

However, it worked out well for me, I got pretty much all the names I wanted. So depending on how the pop of it turns out it might be my next server.

[Grandelderx-eitrigg]

You would think that you would at least let us choose what servers to go to.
