The Aion team has announced that all free character transfers are suspended until further notice. The team indicated that it the server balance issues need to be re-evaluated before restarting the character transfer service. Once restarted, the team will place certain restrictions on transfers to help maintain server balance.
Following the recent Aion server merges, we wanted to offer a free character transfer service to give everyone a chance to play with friends located on different servers. One of our responsibilities is to provide balanced servers for you to play on. To work towards a more enjoyable play experience we’ve decided to suspend character transfers in order to re-evaluate our strategy for server balance. Once we’ve finalized our new strategy, we will again re-enable free server transfers, however with certain limitations to prevent an excessive amount of transfers that specifically contributed to server imbalance.
Because of our decision to suspend transfers, we will be issuing the first wave of Fight on the Right Side rewards to all active players, regardless of race conflict status.
Race balance is something that we take extremely seriously and we are committed to creating an exciting environment for all of you to enjoy. We’ve been listening to your suggestions in the forums and are considering all options available to us in order to achieve consistency in race balance across all servers. Please bear with us as we continue our work to address your concerns.
