An oversight/mistake, obviously. It wasn’t close to overpopulation, it was overpopulated, it now has more players than Firemaw. They weren’t intending for thousands of Firmaw players to go there, they were intending to allow the small handful of remaining players on dead servers to go there.
Blizzard has succeeded in killing the last remaining balanced server almost overnight, while also turning Gehennas into the highest population EU realm, which will suffer the same issues Firemaw had before it was locked.
Why can Razorgore transfer into Gehennas in the first place? Previous FCTs didn’t include Gehennas and Firemaw as destination realms, but Razorgore suddenly has the option.
LOL do you really think that Gehennas wouldn’t be completely locked soon? That Blizzard message just started a mass panic.
Firemaw Horde are trying to flee while they can and Horde in other smaller realms, who thought about transferring, understand that this is their last chance to pay for the move untill Gehennas would be locked even for paid transfers.
This is just blackmailing paid transfers from players by Blizzard with their favorite pressure method of scarcity factor.
Is it free for all servers, or only from certain ones? Currently living on ashbringer as a horde, which is totally dead! However, cant seem to find any free transfers on the list.
You can’t free transfer from Firemaw to Gehennas, directly.
The trick is to use free transfer first from Firemaw to Razorgore and then from Razorgore to Gehennas.
What you do is find a realm with a free transfer to gehennas that you can move to from Firemaw, then do it in two steps. and do it NOW!!! If you don’t you might get stuck on the low population inbetween realm.
Was that before the second FCT wave? I don’t remember details on the first FCT wave but I am like 99,99% sure that the second FCT wave which had Noggenfogger didn’t have Firemaw and Gehennas as destination realm options.
How about you show some message in game?
I had luck to found out i could transfer an alt for free because i linger in the forums.
But your average Joe won’t get to know nothing lmao.
