Question about Nost character data

[gotmilk0112 10]

I read that the character data from Nost will be transferred over to the new servers; I was wondering if it would be possible to transfer a character from the PvP realm to the PvE realm?

 

I started on Nost a while before the PvE realm was even announced, so by the time it opened, I was already heavily invested in the PvP server. Would much, much rather play on a PvE server though, so I was wondering if I could possibly transfer my Nost PvP characters over to the PvE server.

 

If not, that's also fine; a fresh start also works.

From what I have read, you CAN xfer to PvE from the PvP realm.

Ooh. Nice. Yeah, I'll probably transfer my 3 characters over then, because I just despise PvP realms.

 

Was the one thing that always annoyed me about vanilla realms, is that (good) PvE realms are virtually nonexistent.

This is also a reason I think the PvE server will always be fine. Some players, such as yourself, just prefer PVE and since we will probably only ever have that one PvE server it will naturally flourish. Kinda cool actually that Nost made a PvE server and then also brought that over.

Hope I can move too. Nost screwed all of us by not releasing PVE until much later, then refusing to let any transfers go over to it. So like everyone else, I wasn't going to restart from nothing. PVP remained over populated, and PVE barely got anyone on it by comparison, because everyone was already invested in the first realm, and wasn't going to start over. Even if we hated it, we weren't going to start over when we shouldn't have to. Heres to hoping Elysium doesn't make similar mistakes, pissing on its community. Put up population caps and realm transfers. And for the record, Blizzard allowed PVP->PVE transfers, just not PVE->PVP transfers, although I don't think anyone would care either way at this point. Leveling on PVP isn't any harder; it just wastes more your time.

[gotmilk0112 10]

Yeah, if I had started Nost later, I would have gone on the PvE realm for sure. But by the time it released, I already had a 60 and 50 on the PvP realm, and didn't feel like starting all over again.

 

If I can transfer my Nost PvP characters over to the PvE realm, even if it cost $15 or $20 for each character, I'd do it.

 

Mostly because I want to main warrior tank, and leveling a warrior without tons of gold from another character, is an exercise in masochism.

this is pretty much another reason why everyone being concerned over the fresh realm shenanigans just simply makes no sense. all the servers are going to be perfectly fine including the old PvP..... if anything the PvP can use a lot less peeps anyway, that фекал was crazy. i think the PvE realm is going to flourish spectacularly under the elysium/nost team.

 

Pretty much this. There is such a massive interest in these projects that it's hard to imagine Nost PvP or Elysium PvP having problems with population. The PVE server had like 4-5k and that's still large compared to your average private WoW server. These servers will keep attracting more people just for being affiliated with Nost and running their cores. (Assuming Elysium doesn't completely screw up. )

[Cabbage 0]

I always thought character transfers were a strict No within Nostalrius, unless the population was dying.

 

Difference in content would be a big problem - strolling in with BWL gear before the raid is even released?  

 

I hope they keep things as they are

Where do people get this kind of retardation?

Yeah no clue.  If only the main announcement was PINNED..... oh ..... https://forum.elysium-project.org/index.php?showtopic=22768&page=1

 

"PvP, PvE & fresh start

You will be able to choose which realm (in case of multiple realms) (already confirmed only 1 old realm to transfer to) that you will be able to transfer your character to and resume playing as if Nostalrius never left. You will not be able to transfer from PvP to PvE, and so Elysium characters will only be able to join a PvP realm and Nostalrius PvE characters will only join a PvE realm."

 

 

You can't type, "from what I've read" and make up anything you want after.

Well then. Guess I'll be starting fresh on the PvE server. At least I won't have to deal with gankers, I suppose.

Wow. The ignorance and ungratefulness is strong with this one.

Nost Dev team: "Let's create the best vanilla private server experience anyone has ever made. It will be constantly improving and we will stand by our vision for creating a progressive (and non profiting and free to play) experience!"

[Nost vision is accomplished]

Scum: "This experience sux. I can't play the game with all these people trying to kill me. It's like a world wide war of Warcraft or something! I get camped all the time and I just want to do dongeons in peace!"

[scum's cries are heard, and the PvE server is born!]

Nost Dev team: "From our months of fine tuning and hard work on our first server, we are now proud to offer the PvE server for all of those that wish to play on a lower population server and don't want to be bothered with the aspects of world PvP. This one will also be a progressive experience like vanilla!"

[whole community applauds]

[except for those like Drain, who want to be spoon fed due to their natural childish behavior]

nope, it was already announce

I'll never understand this elitism towards PvE server players.

 

We don't find it fun or challenging to be ganked on sight by every enemy player that passes by. We don't find it fun to have to deal with assholes camping neutral towns/areas like Nesingwary and Thorium Point. We don't find it fun to be ganked by enemy players way higher level than you that you have 0 chance of fighting back against.

 

I just want to quest in peace, without the high stress of knowing that at any moment, someone can just come up and give me a 2-5 minute corpse run. If I wanted to PvP, I'd type "/pvp" or go join a battleground.

 

Just...I really, really don't understand this mentality of "if you don't like getting ganked relentlessly, you're a CAREBEAR SCRUB!!1!1" that so many people seem to have.

 

"WHY DIDNT YOU GUYS GIVE ME EVERYTHING I THINK I WANTED WHEN I THINK I WANTED IT?!"

Except literally nobody is saying this. We're not screaming at Nost for not "giving us what we want when we wanted it", we're just a bit annoyed that we started on the PvP realm and then had the PvE realm launch after we were already invested in the PvP one. Nothing Nost could do about that.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to play on a PvE server. However, there is something wrong with complaining about not having what you want, it becomes provided, and then you complain that it wasn't given to you EXACTLY when and how you want it. It's these players that are "scum". You are right about there being people thinking lesser of those who don't want to play PvP, but thats not what this is about. It's about people thinking they have been "screwed over" by Nost, when the reality is that Nost has pretty much been selfless and attempted to give EVERYONE the best experience they can.

[gotmilk0112 10]

We're disappointed that we couldn't start on the PvE server, but I don't think anyone is actually blaming Nost for it. It's not Nost's fault that we started at the time we did.

[Pottu 290]

There are no transfers between the realms.

 

The PvE realm is fairly young. You have more than enough time to catch up with the existing guilds to reach the bleeding-edge of raiding if that is what you want.
