Server Transfer Questions
Quote:
You'll no longer be in the same Super Group, that's it.1. When the character is transferred do I lose all of the influence, salvage, and recipes? And does the same go for enhancements (both slotted and un-slotted)? I don't want to lose anything if I can help it. |

2. If the name is already taken on the new server, will it let me choose a new one? |

3. At this point it's irrelevant since I've already made my decision, but how much does it really cost? And is it something I purchase within the game? |

Thank you very much! You were both very helpful, especially that wiki page. It's nice to know that my character will remain intact and keep all of their goodies. Thanks again.
Sorry one more question. I was checking the name on the server and it told me the name could not be checked. Does this mean that it's already taken or was there just an error and it couldn't find out?
You need to have a character present on the server to check a name. Do you?
Yes, it makes no sense.

It just means there was an error and it couldn't actually check. I've found that I get that error a lot when in the Registration screen of the character creator, it seems to never let me check, but on the character selection screen it generally works for me.

Strange. That's been happening to me ever since I started playing the game.

Also, can a single server transfer be used on more than one character (as long as the to and from servers are the same)?

It means the name check tool stinks. Just make a new character and try to get the name in question. That will tell you DEFINITIVELY whether it is available. If you can get it, just delete that character to free it up again.

No. One transfer is for one character.

I'm looking to do a server transfer for one of my 50s but I have a few questions that I'm hoping can be answered. I'm pretty paranoid that something will go wrong and I want to make sure I understand the whole process before I go through with it. Ok here we go:
1. When the character is transferred do I lose all of the influence, salvage, and recipes? And does the same go for enhancements (both slotted and un-slotted)? I don't want to lose anything if I can help it.
2. If the name is already taken on the new server, will it let me choose a new one? I've read different things from other threads. Some say you automatically get to choose a new name and others have said your name will be "Heroname_1" or something of that sort. Which is it? I'm willing to do the placeholder with a disposable level one that has been suggested but I want to know what I should expect if the name is already being used.
3. At this point it's irrelevant since I've already made my decision, but how much does it really cost? And is it something I purchase within the game? I thought I had to purchase a token through NCSoft or something to use but I couldn't find it anwhere among the booster packs on the website.
Thank you in advance for your help.
