Character Transfers

[OogaJiggaWooga]

Okay, so I'm currently sitting in the queue for Dragonmaw starting at 800+ with a 30min estimated time. I fully expected it would be this bad, and that this may well continue peak time anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. Usually I play off peak so this is not an issue, but I see they are offering free transfers from D'maw to Dentarg and was wondering what experiences others had had with moving over to new and low population realms?

I see there could be an advantage to having experience and geared characters, as well as possibly being able to supply multi-chars to some raids and guilds because of underpopulation issues. Alternatively, there are some quite active guilds on D'maw which I am parts of, and the current queues will not be a bother for a significant amount of time.

Are there other aspects I am missing? Would be great to hear from anyone with new realm experience.

Fed up with the long lines. I have been on Silvermoon since launch .. it was a hard decision but a two hour wait to log in to the game is not acceptable. Hopefully the economy on the new server will stabilize soon.

I notice that Magtheridon also have free transfers to Dentarg as well, and that some are considering. Maybe those who are can let us all know, and it could become a viable new realm with a high multiboxer population?

Hyjal has had 1k+ ques last few days at peak. I am discussing going to Fizcrank as well. There are three of us 5boxers ( out of 6 in the guild) that are considering the move. I will see what the new guys think once they log on.

am discussing going to Fizcrank as well.

IM on aggy and may transfer there....I did a test char (lvl1) transfer from aggy last night to judge the time it takes and it was on fizzlecrank when i got up this am.

Fizzcrank so far has been smooth and very easy for both instancing and questing in 'da Fjord.

See y'all there. I play Sojólly there as my main (ó=alt-162).

We took too long to decide 8( Fizcrank transfers were closed early and a new real>>Galakrond << is the new destination.. my guild ( X FIVE ) will be there.. at least 3 of us so far.

it was hard choice to leave Hyjal for Galakrond but it's awsome....
since it's only a day or two old there are no queues to logon and when you get to northend you don't have to fight over every NCP to complete a quest.

I was just on the realm a few minutes ago. I logged out for a few minutes and now I am in queue now and have been in it for some time. Any info on how long this is going to go on?
