There was mention of it, but I wouldn't expect to see it any time in the very near future. I think I remember 1.3 or 1.4 being attached to it, but I'm not 100% certain.

I honestly think that we'll see some server mergers before the open up individual transfers.

Replaying my class again to 50 simply sounds like Hell

Try varying it up? Only do your class quests and do flashpoints and pvp (since you will have friends playing) its really not too bad. Originally Posted by adam86shadow

Spacebar, dual screen, a few seasons of a good tv-series and you're golden. Originally Posted by adam86shadow

Using the space bar cuts the time about in half so it shouldn't take long. Originally Posted by adam86shadow

I rerolled servers and it sucked to start fresh when I was "rich" but am doing quite well with gear/credits/guild. Reroll and save the headaches.

Although I have a decent guild on Infinite Empire, there are times that I want to reroll to a heavy pop server but due to Legacy it is really a hinders any choice to reroll aside from the occational alt that I will never play. Originally Posted by SoCal

Try it out. Level one on the side. Before you know it you will be 30 and not looking back. Originally Posted by Synche

You bring up a good point. Legacy adds a whole layer of complexity to server transfers. Even if they moved all your alts and everything in a server merger, how will they handle Legacy names in the inevitable event of a conflict? /Random 100 and the highest roll gets to keep his Legacy name? Seems like kind of a raw deal for some people. They have to be really careful how they handle this... which is probably part of the reason we don't have transfers/mergers yet.

Same way they deal with it when a character name is already taken. New person on the server changes their name. It's the risk you take when you move. I didn't move, I don't want to have to change my name because you did. Originally Posted by Profyrion

I don't think you really caught what I was saying. Originally Posted by Koalachan

That's assuming there will be mergers at all, perhaps they will go with a free transfer service and a long cool down instead, then announce the closure of a few low pop servers. Originally Posted by Profyrion

That was more for if you are moving one of your toons with a legacy to another server where you have a legacy already. I.E. if you move your lvl 25 legacy to your rerolled server, which you only have lvl 10 legacy on, you will get your lvl 25 legacy. Originally Posted by Alyssa
