Sometimes players will change their mind on a realm, it would suck to be stuck within the first realm you picked if you made a mistake or found out your friends were actually going to a different realm.


Hi Hojo1,

We will not change our mind on this but if you think you may have chosen the wrong realm or wish to join your friends you only need to delete all your chars and change realm thus bypassing the timer. If you did this in the first week it will not be as detrimental as the eighth week for example.

If you decide to use the timer instead of deleting your characters, what happens to your characters on the realm you are currently on once you switch? Do they stay in tact if you decide to switch back later down the road?

People should be happy they are letting you switch AT ALL!
In 1.65 you could only ever have 1 realm, so even a 7 day timer is too little for me! realm pride!

Hi Hideurkids.

Your characters will 'stay in tact' waiting for you once you decide to return.

As I do Agree with you Ohai, but Mythic had multiple servers you could play on. So this is not so much the same situation.

But thank you for your reply Alcyon, that makes sense for sure. I have some friends who have yet to make up their mind, so i feel i may be faced with that very situation.

In 1.65 you could play all realms that you want. Just had to pay accounts.

I believe you are forgetting there were many different servers. This seems too long imo :(

Did you want to pay a monthly subscription to support multiple servers? I think it's more than a fair compromise to mitigate xrealming and instilling realm pride

To start with we will not offer any instant 50 or realm rank merchant, this is to ensure we have all aspects of the game covered and the best option is to start with PvE. On BETA release day you will be presented with another news post that will outline information for you, this will include things we want you to test/focus on and also more importantly how to report bugs! This is absolutely crucial for speed and efficiency; it is imperative that players report bugs correctly following the correct procedure. We do not accept any report by memory, we need proof and evidence to back up any claim – this specifically allows us to implement things properly and also with speed.

I know I'm not the only one who wants to login immediately and hit the ground running. I could not be more excited for this beta launch. Would it be possible for you to release this information post tomorrow so that we can all familiarize ourselves with a) what tests you're interested in and b) the bug reporting process? This way we'll be able to get started immediately

Regardless, thank you and the whole Uthgard mod and testing teams for making this happen!

I'm happy to see that staff are making all the right decisions here. They have indeed been both listening to player concerns as well as coming up with solutions which will benefit everyone in the future, even though these might not be multilaterally popular right now.

A long x-realm timer is one of these. We all know that realm pride is very important, hence it is necessary to have systems in place to maximise this, even though they might be individually inconvenient.

Obviously if they started with i50 no one would bother to test anything at the lower levels.
