Paid Character Transfer Coming Soon? – WOW Insider
Posted Jun 22nd 2006 4:30PM by Elizabeth Harper
While this may be pure rumor (and I can’t find a reliable source attribution anyhwere), there’s a fairly detailed character transfer FAQ floating around with all the information on pricing and availibity. If this is just a rumor, someone’s certainly gone to a lot of trouble to write it up with so much detail. Here are the highlights, though you’ll have to read the full document to get all the details:
- $25 per character transfered
- Transfers can take up to 10 days to process, during which time you cannot access the character
- Not all realms avalible for transfer (full or high population realms, realms soon to be open for free transfers, or recently released realms will not be avalible)
- Restrictions on how much gold a transfering character may have (300g for characters level 10 to 30, 1000g for characters level 31 to 50, 5000g for characters level 51 to 60)
- You may transfer from a PvP to a PvE rule-set, but not from PvE to PvP
- You may only transfer to a PvP realm if you do not have characters of the opposing faction on that realm
- You may transfer characters from one account to another only if you are the subscriber for both accounts

Guess my warrior has just been doomed to languish on a PVE server I no longer play on. T_T

$25 ?!!!!!
That is robbery! If that is true, it tells me that they really look at this feature as a pain in the a$$. They are trying to make it painful enough that only the most desperate will do it. It would be silly to ever transfer anything but a 60.

That’s the point — they don’t want people transferring all over the place.
