Hello there. I’m new and I chose orc but I am not really happy playing one. I want to switch to alliance. I tried to do it but it said that I boosted my character too recent. How long until I can do a faction change And/or a server transfer?
72 hours.
From this article:
Hi, and welcome. Sorry to hear that.
I see you are on Area 52 server. As you can see from the server population list https://www.wowprogress.com/realms/rank/us Area 52 is about 95% Horde and 5% Alliance. It’s not a great realm to be Alliance. I would definitely not want to faction change from Horde to Alliance on Area 52.
Rather I would look at other options.
You might race change to another Horde race, like Blood Elf, or you might want to start, or buy a boost for, an Alliance character on a realm with more Alliance.
I play there as Alliance and it’s not that bad. Sure, I’ll admit it does sort of suck when it comes to trade chat and everything else, but I think it’s great if you have a guild that you want to be a part of or if you have all your characters on the same realm. But overall, it would be better to switch.
