Genuinely curious - I’m staying put but it seems odd.
Limiting transfers in such an arbitrary way makes it so that people can’t stay together reliably.
Conversely, I’m not sure why there would be a limitation at all when its to a PvE realm.
What is the concern if the “floodgate” was just left…open?
Because if they allowed free reign of transfers without control then the servers would become even more lopsided.
Players have proven time and again they’ll migrate to a specific server with a higher population of whatever respective faction they prefer to play on.
This is Blizzard’s way of maintaining a semblence of control over the population, which is a necessary evil as we the players just can’t help ourselves which then leads to numerous threads of people QQ’ing because of the imbalance.
it’s to keep the lower faction from leaving. If they leave, the remaining players become even fewer, and the imba grows.
With discoverers delight you could just reroll too.
This is in the context of Crusader Strike to Wild Growth so not sure that applies. PvE faction balance doesn’t seem to matter (or so that is what blizzard says) and so why have the limitation?
And CS is a mega server so I’m sure it wouldn’t be harmed much by it.
while a popular opinion, gold and runes make this a less appealing option
To prevent a mass, trickling exodus of one faction.
