GOOD LUCK TOMMOROW GUYS.

If all goes well, then good on you. And if all doesn't go well, then...well...thanks for suffering the screw ups so we don't have to. :phatgrin:

Also, This may have been mentioned at some point in the past, but does anyone know if they will give all world boss zones 3 channel or not after merge?

good luck to reni and artemis too!

(ancient, i believe the faq says they are keeping the channels as they are currently, limited, which makes us users frown xD)

Dear god, that's not what I want to hear, specially considering how many "solo" world boss farmers are coming to govinda with no knowledge of a little thing known as sharing and being decent.

People cite worldboss soloers as the reason they want 3 channels of worldboss zones. I'm not sure what that would do to prevent such players from going down the line -and- channel swapping.

Why is 3 channels so bad in world boss zones?

- Instead of fighting over the same boss, it would allow more than one player/guild to move to another channel if arrived at same time. Of course world bosses would need to be up around the same time on each channel for this to be useful (which I've seen plenty of times before, but not always the case).
- More opportunities at PoMs
- More opportunities at getting their card to drop since these don't spawn too frequently

Did I say it was a bad thing to have more channels? No.

I say instead that I don't think it will fix the problem that people complain about. We're talking about people who are awake and on the servers to clear all the worldbosses shortly after maint, who do the same anytime the server has an unscheduled reboot, who keep alts at the sites to stay informed of boss status, right? Having three channels stops exactly none of that.

None of this is to say that it shouldn't or doesn't deserve to be solved. It's terribly frustrating. Probably having mechanics on the level of ToSH1 would do it.

Most of these world boss soloers have numerous amount of buff/debuff alts, specially if they have to burn the bosses. Takes them time to prepare all the alts before they attempt a burn, they cant be every where at once. But that's not really the main reason for why there should be 3 ch though, you are having people from 5 servers or 2 servers in the same server fighting over the unchanged number of world bosses and poms. That will bring out the ugly side of a lot of people and a lot of guild wars will be declared on maint days. I know it will definitely irritate the hell out of me if I am used to do a world boss on regular basis with my friends and then some other groups of people turn up, and it will happen sooner or later.

I mean hell, due to the merge GF will have to maintain like 5 less servers, would it be that much more work to have say like 5 channels in the world boss zones. Or rather, say for reni+artemis, since they are 2 servers being merged, just double the amount of channel in the world boss zones of their end server. And have 5 ch for Erebos, since there will be people from 5 servers packed in there, that way number of world bosses will remain the same and it will just come down to which group is the fastest.

In a perfect world, I think they should multiply the number of ch in world boss zones by the amount of servers being merged, because each server has atleast a group of people that constantly camps world bosses. So one group will never end up with all the booty.

But that will probably never happen. :phatgrin:

OR... just move all the world bosses into their own short instance like the Ant Queen in DDC and slap a 24 hr timer on the instance like HoS/DL/ZS... problem solved and every1 gets a chance to down the bosses once daily to get PoMs... :pump:

My point was that your particular scenario is not the sole reason why people want 3 channels. It brings other benefits previously mentioned (I didn't even list them all) and is an easy solution in the meantime to implement. Longer term solutions can certainly be implemented, but that wouldn't happen anytime soon.

I'm going to assume the servers are up. Did all go well? The last post doesn't reassure me. The last thing I'm going to want to do is contact support. The merge should have been straightforward. Who's missing what, how was the character re-name? How does the multiple char system work? Etc... Curious to know.

Hi there.

I was in game most of today assisting people and announced multiple times about guilds disappearing. It's also been in the FAQ's for the entire year.

Quoted

Q5: Will the server merge affect in any way the guilds (resources, castle, buildings)?
The guild will conserve the level and buildings, however, anything which is connected with an inactive player (which doesn’t qualify for the transfer) won’t be merged. Additionally the fights history will get lost.

Meaning, if your leader has been inactive too long, the entire guild won't get merged, as the guild is connected to the inactive leader who didn't get merged either. If you have a member that put down a lot of the guild furniture in your castle, if that member has been inactive too long, the furniture does not get transferred as that member didn't get merged.

In the case of a banned account - contact support. Bans cannot be discussed outside of support.

In either case, the merges literally JUST happened less than 6 hours ago. If you've submitted a ticket recently, give us a bit more time as we're trying to handle as many questions as we can between us GM's.

In general, the worst complaint I've heard outside of a "perfect" merge is that characters got rearranged on the character select screen. If you have more serious problems, I urge you to contact support and we will work through the issue as quick as possible.

I believe 1 year was the criteria, but I'll leave it to the GMs to correct me if I'm wrong and to expound.
