WoW Server Transfer Information

[Goliath]

Is there anywhere to find information on raiding guilds on each server, without logging on and sending tells to dozens of people?

I'm on Horde Anub'Arak and we have zero guilds that start raids at 10:00 - 11:00 PM EST. So I'm trying to find a transfer server and am getting pretty frustrated creating level 1 alts and spamming massive tells trying to find information.

Looking for a server that almost never has queues, but is also decently populated.

If anyone knows of a websites that have info on each server, would appreciate it. Or if anyone just knows off the top of their head a cluster of servers that have alot of guilds that raid at that time I'd appreciate it.

Also, server transfers. How long do they take and what kind of experiences have you had with them?

Thanks, appreciate it. Anub'Arak is a dump. All the good horde guilds have been leaving for a while, and with TBC it's just practically deserted.

While I don't have a specific answer if you want to raid that late its probably not going to be easy to find guilds that start that late unless you look on PST realms, which you should for that timeframe.

I've done one paid transfer and one free one, and both times my transfers were almost instant. There was a 15 minute gap between doing it and then my characters being available to play. Some of my friends took a day or more, but it is possible that it'll happen quickly.

Check out the wow server forum list, many servers run a progression kill list with links to guild web pages you could find that info on

10pm est is 7 pm PST.

look for an old pacific coast server

They really need to hurry up and open up PvE -> PvP transfers. Sick of my friends not being able to come join me because of the retards thinking there's something special about leveling up on pvp.

Besies, one would think as a pvper you'd want -more- targets, not less.

But hey, that could just be me.

There is something "special" about leveling up on PVP versus PVE server. Whether you could call that "desireable" or even "fun" is of course, open to debate. Corpse camped for an hour by a level 60 when you are level 20 trying to get a quest done ? Check. Unable to access a dungeon like SM since the stone is perma camped by 2 gank squads of elite knuckledragger 11th graders ? Check.

I used to play on Tichondrius. One reason I dont any more is because every horde guild that raided raided PST times. Most guilds start around 10pm pst, which didnt work out for me being an EST player. So at least theres one option for you.

[Brando]

Goliath, while we're not EST based my guild does/will be starting raids around your timeframe, 8-9pm PST which is 11-12pm EST. We're on the Uldum server which is a PVE/PST server. Send me a PM if your interested and I'll give you the link to our site to check out :-)

I've leveled around 10 characters to 60, one on PvE the rest on PvP. Average addition to play time going from PvE -> PvP, drumroll please!







+ 3hours.


Edit: like to throw in that my last character was ganked about 10ish times before it hit 60. Just have to learn not to be a noob.

I'm also in the market for a server xfer - no one I know plays on my server anymore, and all of the guilds are either not recruiting or not raiding. I'm looking for a bit more reasonable EST time guild (raids done by 3am EST, preferably). If anyone has any suggestions, PM me or AIM me at Antler3649. I have a 60 priest/rogue, and am waiting to buy TBC for this reason. /shill off.

Anyone know if Blizzard allows only one side to do a server transfer? I want to start on the new servers, but seems like every new server has an alliance:horde ratio of 1:3 or 1:4. Do they eventually balance out?

Pretty sure this answer is no.

Basically true.

Hiram sounds like the kind of guy that either never leveled up on a PVP server, but rather just heard nasty things from a friend of a friend, or the kind of guy that while leveling up on a PVP server, got ganked in nessingwaries and spammed general chat for an hour for help while following the horde that killed him (and getting repeatedly killed by said horde).

I've leveled up characters in WoW beta (as horde when they first came out), Mal'Ganis and Arthas, and the fact is that leveling up on PVP is no big deal unless you're incompetent or piss off someone too much. The sad truth about WoW PVP is that if you fight with someone for a half hour, both of you lose equally in terms of game progression, regardless of who died more.

As someone who plays on a PVP server, I'd be perfectly fine with PVE -> PVP transfers.
