Free Character Migrations Available (EU)

By initiating one of these transfers, you will be moving your character to a new realm and home. This is a one-time, one-way move. If you wish to move your character elsewhere, you will need to use the paid transfer service.

  • Silvermoon => Magtheridon / Azuremyst
  • Kazzak / Outland / Stormscale => Auchindoun

Please be aware that, due to the unpredictable nature of free transfers, we may close down any Free Character Migrations at any time and without warning if the target realm becomes full. If you plan to move with friends or your guild, we suggest that you coordinate the effort to reduce the chance of any stragglers being left behind.

Early closures aside, this set of Free Character Migrations will end on Tuesday, March 11

Begin a Free Character Migration now! We recommend reviewing the FAQ, as it details what is or isn't allowed for transferred characters.

    I think the reason they took out lynx rush is because hunter's with the lone wolf talent don't actually have a pet to do that ability (Stampede is pets from your stable)

    And yet no one plays them. You know, if I didn't know any better, I would start to think that people don't spend their entire playtime staring at their character's facial textures.

    Ridiculous, I know.

    So basically for me it means my lv 90 talents will be either a boring flaming arrow or a focus generating refurbished focus shot >_> reason I play a hunter is because of the pets so lone wolf talent is out of the question.. well that's a rather dull lv 90 talent choice

    I really hope they spice up the flaming arrow one.
    Yeah right. And I'll hope they spice up Ignite Weapon for the Warrior.. totally.. I mean.. Fire Damage.. Come on Blizz! Give me something that doesn't ignore all Resistances and all Armor of my Target, thus making the 80% WPDMG actually Ignore Armor..

    Only time i see my char face is when i am at the login screen. I think that lasts 2 seconds before i hit enter and then see the back of his head for the rest of my time playing so people complaining about Orc faces confuses me. Maybe its an RP thing.

    Hopefully they make the faces more distinct, a lot of the faces look the same.

    They should have made flaming arrows something like a weapon imbue, or a poison is for rogues. It should not be a talent.

    Losing stampede is a huge burst cd and a big loss to our ability to do certain aspects. I remember my group could not have killed every weapon on the belt in h siegecrafter if we didnt have 3 hunters rotating stampede. Losing that will hurt us big time.

    Also, they probably didn't remove lynx rush bc petless wont have a pet, but more so bc 0 people used it once it was nerfed. If it was because you wouldn't have a pet, then they would remove Blink Strikes as well.

    Disappointing, really. Hopefully some things will be reworked still.

    Look at the talent calc.

    People need to learn about hunter class.
    These are the people we will have to deal with in WoD...guess thats what will happen with the FOTM rerollers who don't know anything about your class.

    Tbh I was expecting ALOT more "huntards" posting about their ability to not read.

    Aye. Its the same way Scroll of Resurrection worked. The instant 80s were put into 272 gear (entry quests in Cata). Looks like entry quests in WOD will be 500.

    Your problem is that you spend too much time looking at the front of your character.

    UGH!!!! wtb a vid of the Character Creation screen that goes through all the female options also

    The running animations for the Orc suck. I hope every race doesn't look so freaking stupid when they run. I can handle most changes to this game with a grain of salt but if all races run like that, I won't be coming back. I am very disappointed Blizzard.

    My biggest excitement for this expansion was the new models and textures, but my excitement is dwindling with the lack of face change, and I'm worried we're all going to be Thrall/Varian/Tyrande/etc clones.
    Apparently, you and I couldn't be farther apart in what we want from a video game.

    The people making the videos seem to be either really excited or high. They seem sporadic and unsure of what to show. People have been waiting for years to see new models and they just rush over them, ugh!
