SoM characters should be able to transfer to any realm they want

I dont even care about that, I just want my character on my main realm, I want my titles and my friends!

Iā€™d love to have my SoM warrior in wrath, I know era is where I prefer and if demanded to make a choice, thatā€™s where Iā€™ll goā€¦ but I really wanted to bring my tabard up to Wrath to keep that legacy alive. Is making the tabard account bound like tabard of flame a possibility?

My preferred would be 5$-15$ cloning service. Ideally.

This is what its all about. Being able to play the characters we want to play, with our friends, and being able to show off a little.

Ok, but they have all the servers still locked. I tried to grudgenly pay for a transfer and it wonā€™t allow it. Please at least open up paid transfersā€¦

The best we can hope for, is they open up transfers for any SoM characters only, to whatever server we want. If its a locked server, Iā€™d think you should be required to have characters on that server already.

However the SoM population is so dwindlingly small, no matter what it wouldnā€™t impact the servers balance or queue times in any way. Let alone the population of players that actually care about transfers to wrath servers.

Why they chose to allow xfers to Eranikus but not Earthfury is beyond bizarre. Literally the only NA server that is in need of a population boost still due to their gross mismanagement of it these last couple months.

only available transfer out into wrath for me is to a full server.
really blizz? you either do hate your players or you are interally ignorant of your own hypocrisy.

sorry for commenting this here. i felt your thread is best seeing how the post is locked of the announcement.

At the very least they need to account for PVP servers where a player has opposite faction toon on the only server you can transfer to. I canā€™t even pay to xfer to another server until they land on the free serverā€¦ which theyā€™re ineligible for due to my SoM toon being the opposite faction :frowning:

Edit: turns out their blue post says theyā€™re allowing for this but itā€™s bugged right now.

I also was going to mention cloning but was going to suggest 15-25 dollars but your suggestion of 5-15 is better

Blizzard, this decision makes no sense. Let us transfer to servers that we already have characters onā€¦

This wouldnā€™t increase queues at all, this wouldnā€™t change anything, it is just the same as creating an alt character.

The whole point of SoM ending and characters coming off is that we get to save that character to start playing with in Wotlk. This decision to go to only 4 servers that represent less than 10% of the population means 90%+ of SoM players will be forced to abandon their character for good. Is that what Blizzard wants now?

I have a bunch of bank toons at level 1, a lot of stuff isnā€™t as valuable as it once was, but I still do want to keep it all. I canā€™t do a paid transfer to level 1s

What a complete jokeā€¦ send us to realms we dont have any community onā€¦ why would we not be able to xfer to realms we have existing characters on? You without a shadow of a doubt lost the xfer money youd have made off my 3 charactersā€¦ eranikus or whitemane for jom gabbarā€¦ please help me understand HOW if im xfering a character to my existing realm that could affect que what so ever considering i can only play one character at a time on that realm?
PLEASE allow us to go to the realm we have existing characters on
this is an easy fix and a VERY disapointing post that ive been eagerly waiting forā€¦

You freely chose to abandon your native realm. Live with the consequences of your actions.

Despite being a w****r

wow what a let downā€¦ ive waited and waited and waited for this to happen and we are being pushed into realms we have no characters on? And being the realm (faerlina) i have characters on is locked i have no possible way to ever see my guild/friends/community with this character i spent months+ played time onā€¦ you want to push us into realms we arnt currently on and you think we will play these characters?

allowing us to xfer to realms we have existing characters on causes NO harm to server que ā€¦ or population because we are already there it is the same thing as creating an altā€¦ totally sickening the choice that was made here

I genuinely hope that despite there not being very many of us SOM characters, blizzard sees this post and allows us to move to realms we have active characters on.
a total let down i was really thrilled to see the blue post until i clicked into it.

please fix this there is zero harm in allowing SOM characters to move to realms locked or not where they have friends/guild/other characters. It does not create any additional que concerns as you only can be on one at a time
