Free Character Migration (FCM)
The below FCM is available from August 26 to September 01. All migrations are faction restricted to improve ratios on involved realms, thus your faction is currently the less populated one on the destination realm.

Alliance only:
From: Burning Legion, Frostmane, Ravencrest and Sylvanas
To: Burning Steppes, Mazrigos and Vek'nilash

Horde only:
From: Al'Akir, Kazzak, Magtheridon and Stormscale
To: Neptulon, Tarren Mill and Trollbane

Please note: FCM is opened based on realm population tracking and analysis, not by request. If you're looking for a specific migration (from realm A to realm B), you are in most cases better off using Paid Character Transfer, or you could end up waiting for a very long time.

Paid Character Transfers (PCT)
All English realms follow the regular PCT rules, found here:

Seems unreal that a realm has even less Alliance than us. Maybe we'll get more next week...

Why are people moaning for a new realm now? Just wait untill the cataclysm for a brand new realm, then you get to start from scratch with other players in what is effectivley, leveling wise, a brand new game.

Ofc I'll be first to /wrists if a new realm isnt added on the exact day of release.

And instead if saying a server is dead and other similar QQ, work towards making it live again, promote it in a more positive way, make people actually want to go there.
Perhaps create or make it clear that you are supporting reroll gulds, or come up with some events to make people see what is actually good about your server, and that you want to work for it to become alive again.
Show people why you decided to stay while the server is "dying"...

I have raised this question a few times now but i'll do it again. Its very nice that blizzard is trying to make realms a bit more even, and getting away people from the big crowd but its little if any help when you don't block paid character transfer meanwhile. We keep getting new horde players on Al'Akir day by day and I'd guess we get around as many new players as many goes away...

Would blizzard consider PCT block for the more populated faction and character migration? The problem is not going to get solved this way, or are you waiting for faction change to have a mass effect on realm balance?

Blizzard should consider free character move, restricted to improve ratios between the overpopulated alliance and overpopulated horde realms. What are your thoughts on this?

Please look at the ratio of Horde:Alliance at Drak'thul.
It's unbelievable, and the most of the players left at Drak'thul will migrate soon, because it's unplayable as a member of Alliance.

And when we're at it, please also look at Reckoning Battlegroup, because the battlegrounds are always
"Not enough players. The game will end in 5 Min"

Merging us with 7 PvE Realms wasn't the best idea tbh.

Everytime i do a PvE suggest realm. It points to Azuremyst.
Now i really think azuremyst will soon begin to experience a waiting time to get into the realm as most times the realm is listed as high population and give it time this realm will be a full realm.

Maybe not "most high level chars", but at least one character (the one posted with).

If you ask for a realm recommendation and you have characters on a realm of the type you select, you will be pointed to that realm, not to the one flagged as "New Players". After all, you're not a "new player". ;)

15. Re: 26/08 - Realms and Migration 28/08/2009 04:24:47 PDT

Can i transfer from [Stormscale - Horde] to [Mazrigos - Alliance]?

If no, will it be implemented with the faction change feature?
Will it be free just like the current free character migration (FCM)?

Thx - minor

requesting a 'look' on aerie peak its turning into magtherdion but then its alliance that heavily outnumbers us always outnumberd in wintergrasp alot of tenacity and winning is rare
archavon logs shows alliance won atleast 600 times more

What is Blizzards policy on empty PvE worlds, like silvermoon for horde? Because there's absolutely no one there, I can walk in the badlands for 2 hours without encountering a single horde player, only alliance.

Drak'thul

18. Re: 26/08 - Realms and Migration 30/08/2009 13:56:48 PDT

Btw. The day you've made free migrations from Drak'thul to 3 other realms you totally killed Drak'thul.
Horde:Alliance ratio is just ridiculus, really. And most of the alliance players who stayed are going to move, because it's impossible to play on a level there.
