    Have you considered only merging particular aspects of these servers?
    I'm sure there's a lot of things that could be done if programming time were dedicated to solving this kind of problem, but I don't think BHS is interested in spending time on this sort of thing. So technical solutions that involve changing game functionality are probably not possible over the short/mid-term, and I think the goal was to do something sooner rather than later.

    @Dymatize sorry to burst your bubble but I PvP and can hold my ground at 250-280ms ping. It is honestly not that far off from the 300-400 you mentioned. Of course I dont have the capacity to beat top players yet, but most top players dont even OWPvP that much, if that is something you are worried about.

    OWPvP pretty much died in all PvP servers, INCLUDING MT.

    Do you guys even achievement hunt in a PvP server before? Aside from the Lumbertown region, it is literally empty. Having more players also doesnt mean more reds will appear as people have a life and like what other pvp players say.

    If that is what pve players are really worried about, then I can safely say that aside from the absolute minority (you can count with your fingers), most of the outlaws pvp each other for fun. Like, the only thing that people do in OWPvP now is ganking low levelled players and with PvP65 that removed a ton of the problems of the original PvP setting.

    Also it actually gives more newbies the chance to actually appreciate pvp rather than just being mindless in fwc in the future. (Watch others pvp each other from a safe distance, and most of the time they will ignore you.)

    Its like making 100% PvE guilds in PvP servers (and they actually exist in large numbers at MT for instance)

    I don't understand what's up with so much complaining from Highwatch players. "I dont want to get pked while doing vanguard dailies." It's called IOD,and it's a SAFE ZONE. "I don't want to get pked while lvling a character." Oh,let me teach you the way of "changing channels". Like no offense,but having open world pvp it's not as bad as it seems. You guys rather stick on your low populated pve server than accept a merge that brings so many benefits? :I

    Yeah we really do...... We don't want any PVP related stuffs at all.. We move to HW because it was a PVE server in the first place..why we need to suffer on this Merging stuffs...

    I made a quick compare between the broker of 3 servers. If the merger really happen, the item price might settle pretty fast.
    T9 (18g) / T10 (30g) / MWA (50g) price is fairy even.
    Premium Alkahest/ Colluva ore/ Cosmetic selection are a few example of noticeable price gap. Anything else we should consider? Economy is a part of game.

    Why don't open a free server transfer to TR, MT and CH and make these the only Tera servers? I don't understand the necessity of have 7 servers, crusades are going away and there is a new big GvG content coming soon, also makes more sense have everyone together in a MMO.

    For the names, just clean up these 3 servers for anyone who hasn't logged in for a 1 year or older.

    Because while many will transfer a lot won't and then it's even worse.

    You should still give free transfers to the people in lot, vot, and hw, since not everyone would like a lvl 65 only pvp or pvp at all

    No, that sounds like a lame excuse to get out of the server and transfer to MT/TR. Giving transfers from this new server would destroy the purpose of the merge. OWPvP wouldn't have any major impact at all.

    sure it would destroy it... if its done badly, ofc give people time to get used to it, but after that if people dislike it then they'll be causing more problems and possibly lose more players and less players = less money for them

    yeah... We are already discussing this on our guild and seems like we are just going to say Bye Bye unless there is a free transfer on PVE server...

    Because we choose a PVE server and we don't want any kind of OWPVP. Its not fair if we are forced to it.

    Ya'll need to realize. You die-hard PvE'ers can still TP to your safe zone dungeon entrances, without being ganked.

    No PvPers are going to hunt you down, if you are doing achievements.

    There are multiple channels for a reason. You aren't being targeted, you are just being self-centered and bubbled.

    Ya'll need to realize than we choose pve server because we dont want change channel and than we want to run or walk to our favorite dungeon or even be afk there in front the portal :)

    Yeah ^ just what he said...hassle to change channel...We didn't play for that stuffs.. yada yada...

    If 5 seconds is a "hassle". You really need to not be so bubbled. Also, you don't pay to play the game. F2P remember? :^)

    Honestly its like you guys think OW PvP servers are a blood party
    The only place i got killed in MT -at 65..because high lvl killing lowbies is still a thing i guess- was VO. Thats happened once in months, the rest of the ppl that showed up with Murderous Intent really were there just to have fun poking ppl or w/e they do to have fun.
    You wont see ppl waiting in places for you to go there so they can kill you, and if that happens, dw because that guy will die or run away really fast due to ppl ganking on him.
    The main thing you guys should ask is if even being a "PvP" server, it would still have a strong PvE like MT does because really, the fact that ppl can kill each other in OW doesnt change much, ppl simply dont wander around killing ppl..maybe it could change stuff during events like this current one lol but other than that, it has no difference at all imo.

    Not that I'm actually affected by this, but I have to agree with the HW players that don't want to be forced into a PvP server of any kind, 65 or standard.
    People choose PvE or PvP servers based on their preference. Why should PvE players only interested in consensual (for lack of a better word) PvP be forced into any OwPvP situation? You're consistently arguing safe zones and switching channels but it still comes back to the point of "why should those who chose a PvE server in the first place be subject to that?" And the thing is, switching channels doesn't even guarantee freedom from ganking.
    So I pose a question to those PvP players who are saying switch channels/stay in safe zones (the latter being moronic as far as actually doing anything in the open world). Why not make it a PvE server instead? You guys can request to duel, you can use battlegrounds for PvP and you can declare GvGs. Would you have a problem going from a PvP server to a PvE server?

    And wait. We can't kill you in Highwatch, and even if we could, why would the "players in highwatch" be of threat to you in Fey. I need to see your logic here pal.
