Free Character Transfers Now Available For Some Realms

7+ hours it says on mine

Mine took around 1 hour to transfer. It said 8 hours, however.

Said 3 hours on one of mine but took 30min.
Another one I did later to Ragnaros said it would take 5 and also took about 30min.

But don’t take it from me. There is always a risk when transferring. But it seemed to happen within an hour, and if I was you I’d move now, in the middle at night before everyone comes online tomorrow morning.

Most of my toons are saying 7 hours so I’m settling down for the night and hoping for the best. Fingers crossed that by the time I wake up everyone will be transferred. Yes you can select multiple characters too but you have to do it individually.

I transferred my Hunter and Mage who where in Shadowlands. It does seem to be very buggy though as some of my 50s couldn’t be transferred at all.

nop, I have this issue on my alt lvl 50. He didn’t even take the bolvar quest

Dude don’t transfer to Drak’thul!! It’s a 99+ Czhek server with no english guilds. It’s the same for Burning Legion

Good choice! Had some horde alts on Al’Akir, and a few months ago blizz decided to merge it with Burning Legion…

As I said earlier in this topic, Magtheridon has both a healthy horde and alliance population. English speaking server

Good job Blizzard! Once again you’re showing players that you do care :slight_smile:

Following suggestions in this thread and elsewhere, I’d suggest

Stormscale for Horde

Outland for Alliance - or Ravencrest if the free transfer will let you go there

magtheridon is HIGH pop.

Magtheridon also has a somewhat balanced pop, so avoid at all costs.

Argent Dawn has a third of the population of a realm like Draenor. It has a reasonable population but it’s not busy or full like the big ones. You do realise it’s an RP realm.

It’s brilliant news to see these moves being offered. I hope enough people are interested and it helps alleviate the issues.

Magtheridon somehow still has a fairly balanced horde/alli ratio for some reason so its good for both sides, was a good pve realm before wm came

That’s not how it works anymore, since CRZ. It’s bad for both sides. I’d happily transfer off, but for the costs and drawbacks, and I’m leaving my Horde on Draenor; the problems wil subside in a couple of weeks, and all the people who transfer off will be regretting it, same as last time, and paying to get back.

Stay away from “balanced” realms at all costs!
