    For instance I doubt people play two severs like AV and TR with 8+ characters on each. I must be missing something

    Just a personal example, I have 11 characters on TR and 7 on AV. Since I have a founders account (starting at 8 per server), I enjoyed creating a lot of alts in the past and trying different servers, and a lot of them have cash shop items bound to them. (Got up to 11 on TR because of the free character slots given with new classes.) So even though I don't actively play all of them today (a few on each server for various classes), they have bound items I wouldn't want to just delete. If they added CH to the mix (since I have characters there too), I'd overflow the max character limit entirely, and would overflow the bank + wardrobe, so I'd have to start throwing cash shop items out (unless I could work something out with support).

    If I didn't have a founders account and had to have bought all my slots starting at 2, I probably would never have made so many. But there are some who did that as well. Some people just have lots of alts.

    If I read the facts right you have 11 on TR 7 on AV so after the merge you will have 11 on new server and the other 7 you have to delete they won't get combind

    yes
    unless 7 more character slots are some how acquired to the server he has 11 on to accommodate the extras from the other server allowing him to have 18 of the possible 20 allowed on a server so whos paying for the extra 7 character slots ? and what if he had 11 + 11 , then even with extra slots 2 would need to be deleted

    Yes if he buys 7 more slots or even if EME gives him7 more his old 7 chars will still be deleted unless he pays for transfers before the merge

    Yes if he buys 7 more slots or even if EME gives him7 more his old 7 chars will still be deleted unless he pays for transfers before the merge

    no
    if there are empty slots the over flow will fill them any extra will then need to be deleted
    so if he has 20 character slots on one server but only 11 characters then in the merge eme will transfer his choice of 9 other character any others will need to be deleted or put on say CH or the other merging server it he hasn't already capped that on out too
  • tisnotmetisnotme ✭✭✭✭
    and also to add to the transferring side eme are opening a (aprox) 2 week window where actual transfers are free not including the merging transfer they will do
  • From the facts post

    Delete (or transfer) any characters you don’t need. Character slots on the new servers will be limited to the highest number of slots unlocked on either of the merging servers. For example: If you have a total of 4 character slots on Fey Forest, and 9 on Mount Tyrannas, you will have a total of 9 slots on the new server.

    yes so you have 4 character slots on Fey Forest, and 9 on Mount Tyrannas but only 2 characters on Fey Forest, and 7 on Mount Tyrannas all 9 characters will be able to fit in to the 9 character slots you have on Mount Tyrannas
    you can have empty unlocked character slots until you fill it with a character then its a character and no longer a character slot
  • Not trying to be a pain but.......9=4=13 but you can only have 9 after the merge

    but that's empty slots not made characters
  • Yes but if they are charaters then you have to delete the 4 because you can only have 9 on the new server.

    Again taken from the news post

    yes but ^^^^^^ re read its referring to empty slots (ie ones you can fill with a transferring character and if you don't have enough then you will need to delete)
    if you have none yes you need to delete if you have some empty your characters will be transferred
  • That is what i'm saying. the server merge should be combine both servers chars/slots 9+4=13 on the new up to 20 max.
    EME says to delete or transfer because you only have room for your highest amount on 1 server thus in this case 9 so you have to delete of or transfer 4 chars.
    In counterpoints case he has 11 on TR and 7 on AV his 7 on AV won't be moved he has to delete or buy transfers for them
  • tisnotmetisnotme ✭✭✭✭
    I my self am in the position where currently I will either have to some how acquire an additional 8 slots or delete 8 characters
    ironically the severs where these 8 characters currently are have 10 activated unused paid for character slots as well
  • I really expected some type of compensation for the loss of cosmetic and other EMP purchased items that you will lose because said item is bound to a deleted character.

    Maybe some sort of Lib so you can bind it to another character would have been nice.

    you have 9 slots on one and 4 on the other but only I character on each you will be ok
    you have 9 on one and 4 on the other and all are full your in trouble till you delete or get more slots
