People with this kind of comments are so frigging morons. All over the place we hear about Horde imbalance etc yet you guys scoff at the simple idea of a faction change to solve this. Suggesting a delete and reroll at this point is so idiotic, people don’t want to reroll aand lose all their money, gear, reputation etc and do all this again.
Shaman and paladins? Just restrict the changes to all other classes other than these two. Here, problem solved. The point is simply to balance the factions and make everyone’s play time more enjoyable.
It’s not like this is a new game for f sake, it’s been played 15 years ago.
Faction transfers aren’t going to fix faction imbalances.
If someone tries to faction change as a paladin or shaman, then make the shamans paladins and the paladins shamans. Problem solved.

We all know faction change will not happen lol.
While I feel it’s highly unlikely due to many faction specific nuances, I did find the wording of this interesting:

Indeed, the biggest and most important change of all was population caps. That single change affects the economy and gameplay more than any other change that is even possible to make.
Ain’t it nice how people with passions are the easiest to troll?

As much as a good thing it would be to have faction changes… what do you do with the shamans and paladin?
I dont think turning one into the other would work out very well
Some of us are actually able to differentiate between administrative changes and gameplay changes. The ability to faction change would in no way affect gameplay in game.
It would be a simple matter of not having gear transfer over. It’s not rocket science.

People seem to forget that Blizzard will do what is required to maintain their numbers. If they know keeping people playing Classic WoW (paying for subscriptions) is better by allowing faction changes, they will do it.
People almost chuckled at the thought of character transfers, and it happened relatively fast. There would be no difference for faction.
For gear (faction-specific), they will either have it removed and kept in your inventory/bank.
If it is for shaman/paladin changes, they will have the same rule apply, and have all tier gear properly transfer over.
It is only a matter of time.
Paid faction change only on pve servers.
Why? Make a case against it.

Pve servers are non factors. I heard you can make both factions on the same server.
That is not a case for not allowing it on pvp servers.
It is if the player has a shaman. One a pve server the shaman can just be left behind because we can play both factions. On a pvp server, the shaman needs to be deleted during the transfer.
The idea was that when faction swapping, shaman would become pallys and vice versa. No gear and no class mounts would transfer.
(I would suggest that the paid faction change would cover your entire single server’s roster.)
