Title: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Ralence on September 11, 2008, 12:53:47 PM They finally realized that it's not difficult to level on a pvp server.
www.worldofwarcraft.com is the best link I have, it's on the frontpage, no forum post concerning it. Personally, I don't think it's a big deal at all. I leveled my rogue from 1-70 on a PVP server in the past month, and I was actually ganked all of three times I think. More often than not the Alliance folks come up and /wave at me to let me know they're there. Maybe it's just the fact that people are trying to level as fast as possible now to get ready for WoTLK, but nonetheless, good for the people stuck on those barren PVE servers!

Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Nebu on September 11, 2008, 01:11:55 PM Why would the "hardcore" people complain? If they are really that good, then this should provide them with easy "carebear" targets to slaughter.
Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Evildrider on September 11, 2008, 01:12:19 PM Hmm and so close to WAR's release. Maybe they are hoping some of the PvE people that are interested will go to a WoW PvP server instead of trying out WAR.
Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Oban on September 11, 2008, 01:14:28 PM Awesome, I made a horrible mistake after TBC launched and moved two of my characters off of an RP-PVP realm to two different PVE realms.

If they are really that good, then this should provide them with easy "carebear" targets to slaughter. Because people not having to suffer through getting ganked in STV or whatever while leveling somehow devalues their experience and slaps them in the face. These are not the smartest MMO players out there, remember. Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available!

These are not the smartest MMO players out there, remember. You act as if that's a malady exclusive to WoW players. It's not. That exact argument has been used as the reason 'not to' allow this ever since EQ first introduced character x-fers. Not a version of it, not a resonating idea. The exact line, "It devalues the experience." Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Signe on September 11, 2008, 04:50:28 PM My whole house smells of popcorn! :ye_gods:

Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: DraconianOne on September 12, 2008, 05:18:31 AM This is fucking awful news.
I've got a level 60-something on a PVE server but went back to an old RP-PVP server. I know have a full roster of characters and NOWHERE whatsoever to bring this guy over to. In other news - this is so full of fucking awesome that I my tummy feels all tickly inside. Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Trouble on September 12, 2008, 11:37:42 PM Definitely glad this has finally come to pass, from a raiding guild perspective. For whatever reason, the large majority of raiding guilds are on PvP servers. People never transfer from PvP to PvE even though they technically can because they end up in "PvExile" and cut off 2/3 of their potential future options. Since this announcement we've had dozens of people inquiring about applying to join us, it's somewhat entertaining.
Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Xanthippe on October 13, 2008, 09:29:34 AM I just transferred my 53 rogue that I last played late winter of 2005 from a pve server to The Venture Co.
What a trip through time! She has a stack of blinding powder, really crummy gear, very little rep with anyone - I'm not even sure if talents were in then - I guess they were? Maybe I just didn't know how to use them? Hinterlands was explored, but last time I played her, there was no flight point or even Revantusk Village in existence.

They were in.. but Rogues have gotten several free respecs over the years so your talents were despecced and you never got to spec them again. By the way.. I take it you found your caffene this morning? Hell of a posting streak! :grin: Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Xanthippe on October 13, 2008, 09:49:44 AM I've been really busy the past few weeks, and can finally take a breath - which means I'm avoiding doing the household chores I've been too busy to do. Maybe I should go see if HKO has the beta client available for download yet.

Title: Re: PVE->PVP Server Transfers now available! Post by: Calantus on October 13, 2008, 10:07:46 PM Hmmm... I might just level my Deathknight on a PVE server and xfer him over to my PVP server when she's done. I hate leveling in a PVP+ environment.
