Update, Thursday: the migration is now opened, with the exception of the migration to Bronze Dragonflight which is still experiencing technical issues.

To migrate, go to the free migration page: http://www.wow-europe.com/en/support/charactermoverealms.html
The link through the account management page is currently incorrect.

Update, Wednesday: for technical reasons the migration has been delayed. We will provide you with another update tomorrow (Thursday), hopefully to tell you it's opened.

During the first half of this week, we will be opening Free Character Transfers for a number of realms. These transfers will run until noon on Friday, January 12th. The transfers are not yet activated.

We are doing this to allow players on highly populated realms to transfer to lower populated realms as well as to try and prevent queues on some of our highly populated realms when we open the Dark Portal next week.

It must be noted that certain source and destination realms can change at any time during this period. This means that we may add or remove eligible source realms as well as change destination realms if/when the need should arise.

We will not be offering guild migration assistance with these transfers.

Note: due to being new realms opened for migration, character creation will be disabled on Anachronos and Bronze Dragonflight until further notice.
Note 2: as Anachronos and Bronze Dragonflight are opened for migration purposes we will allow Paid Character Transfers to the realms without waiting for them to be 6 months old.

Q u o t e:
would love to move off kilrogg at once, but if u want us to move away from the crouwded realms fix the damn page.

The page will be properly set up before the migration is activated. ;)

Q u o t e:
Silvermoon A:H 4:1 and Stormrage A:H 9:1 together!?!?

I am 100% sure those numbers are either made up or from a completely unreliable source.

Q u o t e:
until proven wrong, those numbers are correct

I say they are completely unreliable.

By your logic, unless you can prove my statement wrong, it's correct. ;)

Q u o t e:
So pretty much out of the 5 days you get to choose to move your char you still cannot do it after two days because the website is broken.

It was never intended to be open for 5 days. Friday is the last day. It was announced yesterday that it will start the first half of the week, not that it would start on Monday.

We're working on making this available as soon as possible, as we'd like to give people as much time as possible to migrate. It won't be before the maintenance though, unfortunately.

Please observe that you will need to visit the migration page on the website, as the account management link is incorrect. We're working on correcting this.

Correct link:
http://www.wow-europe.com/en/support/charactermoverealms.html

Web page should be working in a few minutes.

Page should now be up and working. Making a new thread to track any new issues popping up.
