Character Transfers Available; Discount Offered
Tasos announced today that character transfers are now live in Darkfall. According to the post, "character transfers are currently available only to players wishing to transfer from the EU1 server to the NA1 server. There is no transfer fee if the transfer takes place before December 6th 2009." You don't need to buy an NA1 Darkfall client to transfer your EU1 character and the whole process could take up to 24 hours. More details can be found after the jump.
During this transfer period, the team is offering a 30% discount on six-month subscription packages for both the EU1 and NA1 servers. For example, new players can buy the NA1 client and a six-month subscription for $87, which is $38 cheaper than the regular price. The special offer ends on Dec. 5.
Character Transfer Information
- Character Transfers are currently available only to players wishing to transfer from the EU1 server to the NA1 server. There is no transfer fee if the transfer takes place before December 6th 2009.
- To be eligible for character transfer you must have a player account on the EU1 European Server where you have purchased the Darkfall Client.
- Your character will be transferred with none of its items or holdings. These will be lost during the transfer.
- Your character will retain skills, spells, quests, alignment and titles.
- Your character will be removed from the EU1 server and in order to continue playing on EU1 you would need to create a new character.
- You do not need to buy a NA1 Darkfall Client to transfer your EU1 Character
- You don't need an active subscription on either server in order to transfer your character. You do need one to play however.
- You will need an active subscription on NA1 before you can play
- Your remaining EU1 subscription days can be transferred and added to your purchased NA1 subscription if you submit a ticket requesting it to EU Support http://support.darkfallonline.com/ after your character is transferred. You will still need an active NA1 subscription to do this.
- Your transferred character will not be available immediately. It will become active during the next scheduled maintenance cycle and this could take up to 24 hours. We recommend you wait 24 hours before purchasing an NA1 subscription so that you don’t lose subscription time while waiting for your character to become active. We’re afraid that we will not be able to refund time lost due to transfer lag.
- During the transfer period there is a special limited time offer available on six month subscription packages where you save 30 percent off the regular price. This offer is good on both the EU1 and the NA1 servers. You can read more about this special offer here:http://forums.darkfallonline.com/sho...d.php?t=220402
