New Player realms
Normal/PvE: Alonsus
PvP: Xavius
RP: Steamwheedle Cartel
RP PvP: Sporeggar

Free Character Migration (FCM)
The below FCM is available until October 20. All migrations are faction restricted to improve ratios on involved realms, thus your faction is currently the less populated one on the destination realm.

From: Argent Dawn
To: Moonglade and Steamwheedle Cartel

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

Horde only:
From: Al'Akir, Kazzak, Magtheridon, Outland and Stormscale
To: Burning Blade, Hakkar, Neptulon 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:

What I would like to know, how much lower the population is on the recommended PvE realms.
It seems to me the servers are quite balanced in terms of population since we are getting a new recommended PvE realm each week.

And how is Xavius? Is it really so badly populated compared to the other PvP realms?

A big thanks for the new selection of trasnfer destinations, tho noting it that it was needed since horde had 2 while alliance had 4 destionation realms.
Don't know much about hakkar but Burning Blade is Blackout and was a good destionation in previous free migrations also.

Hakkar is the same battlegroup as Xavius and it was notorious for being outnumbered by Germans they were merged with when two-language battlegroups were introduced. It is also infamous for being full of Italians that don't bother to speak English in public.

Unless you know Italian, do yourself a favor and go to Burning Blade instead.

I waited such a long time to see migration from Argent Dawn to Moonglade.

Why more Horde Neptulon? o.O. For once, it's balanced.. Infact, game wise, I think there might even be more Horde. We own WG equally and such, and world PvP is balanced..

So..

Why more Horde to Neptulon? >.>

Why doesn't Blizzard stop paid migrations on these realms for the overpopulated faction? We get new horde xrealmers every day and it's really annoying since it worsens or makes the free migrations have almost no effect apart from stagnating...

I understand that Blizz likes to give players a free choice but shouldn't a daily que of 500 + our faction having double the players the other faction has be a VERY GOOD reason to restrict this 100% free of choice to 99,9% (lets say 98% since i guess other big realms involved in the free migration also need restrictions).

Is it greed for money? :\

Drak'thul should look like a proper PvP server, shouldn't it?

Have you considered free faction changes? From some over horde / alliance or alliance horde. Over populated realms?

LOL Drama!

Horde only:

Emerald Dream -> Trollbane ?

it seems like Trollbane is mainly populated with alliance, and Emerald dream got loads of hordies, wouldn't that be nice?

Has Blizzard ever considered Force character migration?The situation in Al'akir is dreadfull....apart the obvious lag and que problems,our realm is overpopulated by horde players thus making it impossible to play a proper WG battle.I know that Force migration is a bit extreme but do something please!!!

Chamber of Aspects

Chamber of aspects really needs more alliance maybe you could enable it so over populated ally servers could move to chamber of aspects. just my thought thanks.
