Reserving your name

[VibrantViolet]

ANet just posted you can now reserve your name for GW2 if your GW1 character had that name. I am a little confused as to how to do this. Anyone know? The blog post said to log into your GW1 account. On the site or the game? Having trouble finding out how to reserve my character name....

Okay, so from what I'm understanding...you just had to have logged into GW1 sometime in 2012, and the names will already be reserved, correct?

yes that is correct. so you can't reserve single names.

To reserve your name, you will have to login to the game sometime from January 1st to July 31st. If you have done that you have done half of it. The second half is to link your Guild Wars account to your Guild Wars 2 account, otherwise they won't be able to know which of the names are reserved for you.

With being able to use spaces, I'm really not worried about it. There's such a huge combination of first names and last names possible it will be fairly easy to have a name I want.
