Issue with Changing Guild Master Character Across Factions

Community General Discussion
1

Hello everyone,

Since Blizzard retired the Guild Faction Change service and introduced cross-faction and cross-realm guilds, I assumed it would now be possible to transfer the Guild Master (GM) role between characters on different factions within the same account. However, I encountered an issue where I cannot make one of my Horde characters the GM because the system states that you cannot assign GM roles to characters of the opposing faction.

As it stands, I am unable to change my own faction as GM because there is no way for me to transfer the GM role to a Horde character, nor can I use the Guild Faction Change service anymore. This seems like a bug or an oversight.

Has anyone else experienced this issue, and does anyone have a solution? Blizzard, any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Same for me! i’m a returning to Alliance… my go to char are all Ally and actually the GM is an horde char that i’m not going to use.

i want to pass the GM to one of those char i would like to use in TWW but i’m not able to

Hopefully is intended and this will be solved with TWW start.

Thanks

I completely understand your frustration, and it’s disappointing that even with patch 11.0.2, this issue hasn’t been resolved. It’s especially challenging when you’re eager to return to Alliance and use your preferred characters, but are stuck with a GM character on the opposite faction.

I really hope Blizzard addresses this soon, especially with The War Within launch coming up. Being able to pass GM to the character you plan to use should be a given, and it’s unfortunate that it’s still an issue.

Fingers crossed that this gets fixed soon! Thanks for sharing your experience—hopefully, Blizzard is aware and working on it.
