Transfers open for Progression Servers

Yesterday, DBG announced that they are opening up the Account-to-Account transfer service to their progression servers, Ragefire, Lockjaw and Phinigel!

From the EQ Website: "Account-to-Account transfers are a way that players can manage their characters. This service allows people to move characters from a single to multiple accounts so those characters can play together at the same time, or move characters spread across multiple accounts into one account to help save on membership dollars each month.

BEFORE you transfer a character from one account to another, remember that you need to contact our Customer Support team! For more information about this, see the knowledge base article here."

 

More news about upcoming server downtime is below...

Also, yesterday Roshen announced that all Everquest Live Servers will be taken offline on WEDNESDAY, January 20, 2016 at 5:30 AM Pacific time for an update.  The estimated downtime is appsoximately 4 hours.

We'll repost this news as a reminder on Tuesday.

Shoot if I could move my 45 Enchanter from Ragefire to Phinigal Id resubscribe and play. I just can't be bothered to start from scratch yet again.

You sure you can transfer TO Phinigel? How does that work? Presumably, your toon would have to be below the level cap in force for that server, right? But this is still very unbalancing since players could elect to move twinked toons, even toons with gear from xpacs not open on Phinigel yet. Am I missing something here?

You gotta fix your title for this news story. Here's a quote direct from Roshen. I should have gone there first before posting here:

Quote:
For the progression servers you list, the only server transfer that's currently available is Lockjaw to Ragefire.


Makes sense. Phinigel is DBG's "Golden-Haired Boy" server right now and the last thing they'd want to do is blunt that momentum.

For those that don't know, there is a vocal group of players on the O-boards asking for free transfers and/or a merger of Ragefire & Lockjaw, there's even some asking for the ability to move to Phinny in era (highly unlikely that gets allowed anytime soon). A smaller group is even willing to pay for it.

That is not what this announcement is about.

This is the account consolidation or expansion type of transfer. It's a benefit to very few people, but also has no real impact on the server population (which of course the other actions would).
