PvE to PvP Server Transfers Possible Soon?

Posted 16th Jun 2008 01:54 PM by Maticus

Blizzard’s recent free transfer service was unusual because the source realm was a PvE server and the destination was PvP.

This is something Blizzard have said they wouldn’t make available, and although this was probably a one-off due to server population imbalance, it’s started off a fresh batch of speculation about the possibility of it becoming a permanent possibility in the future. And as if this wasn’t enough, Community Manager on the official US WoW forums, Drysc, gave his - dare I say - controversial opinion:

[blue=http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=7116274205&pageNo=2&sid=1#24] I was ganked maybe four or five times before hitting Outland in my most recent leveling experience. I personally don’t see the issue any longer, and while it can vary greatly from realm to realm or even person to person, it’s just not the same PvP leveling experience it used to be at all. Times have changed.[/blue]

Would you like to see PvE > PvP transfers available?

Well I recently remade a mage which I’m currently leveling to 70 on a PvP-server because my other 70Mage is on a PvE-server. If they decide to allow PvE to PvP transfers then I’ll be quite pissed that I leveled another Mage to 70. But oh well, I don’t really have any issues with being ganked anymore. But maybe that’s because I’m Horde on EU-Magtheridon(H:11-A:2)

When I play my characters on PvP realms I get ganked 3-4 times a night.  I agree its not as bad as it was pre-BC but its still pretty bad in some area’s.

I’ve always been very much against this type of transfer.  Just because life on PvE realms is sooo much easier then life on PvP realms.  Maybe I’m just reaching a burn out point, but at this point in time, I guess I really don’t care one way or the other.

Too right, the whole “Should they / shouldn’t they” thing has been done to death, but this is the first time anyone from Blizzard has expressed their opinion in favor of the restriction being lifted, in a round-a-bout kinda way

Blizzard has stated so many times that they won’t make PvE > PvP available, so it’ll be big news if something changes :smiley:
