Server Merges!

Last week we shared that server merges are coming, and today we’re taking the first big step! We’ve finalized which servers will be merged. It’s… a pretty long list! Over 95% of servers will be affected.

Servers involved in the merge will be locked for new account creation and transfers very soon. Starting December 12, transfers from those servers will also be disabled. Not too long after that, server merges will start. Expect them before the end of year 2025.

Let’s dive into more details about this event:

Q: What will change?
A: If your server is being merged, your account will automatically transfer to a new one. If your server is being merged into, you will stay in place. Either way, you’ll find a larger, more active player base there, including new allies and new rivals! There will also be changes to your Grand Arena and Guild War ranking.

Q: Will I be affected?
A: Check which server you’re playing on! If it’s from the list below, then you will NOT be affected. If your server number isn’t listed, your server will participate in the server merge.
Servers that will not be merged: 824, 970, 1087, 1120, 1201, 1202, 1203, 1204, 1206, 1247, 1248, 1249, 1250, 1251, 1252, 1253, 1254, 1255, 1256, 1257, 1258, 1259, 1260, 1261, 1262, 1263, 1264.

Q: What about my Guild?
A: Your entire Guild, including all guildmates, will be transferred together. Your Global Championship standing stays the same, though your Guild War ranking will change.

Q: Where will I end up?
A: You can check out this page for more details.

Q: How are you deciding on which servers will get merged?
A: We take into account how many active players are there, what kind of power they have, as well as a few technical details. We will merge servers that have mostly similar players.

Q: When will it happen?
A: Right now we are still doing preparations, but expect server merges to happen this year.

Q: What will happen with the Grand Arena?
A: Once the merge finalizes, everyone on the destination server (both new and old accounts) will start Grand Arena from the beginning. Everyone will be compensated depending on which place they had in the Grand Arena before the merge.

Q: What will happen with Guild Wars?
A: For one week, all Guilds on the merged server will start from the Promotional League, as will all other Guilds on the server you ended up on. At the end of that week, Bronze, Silver, and Gold League members will be determined . Everyone will be compensated depending on which place their Guild had in Guild War before the merge.

Q: What if I have multiple accounts?
A: In over 99% of cases, nothing much! Your accounts will merge to different servers. In other cases, we will move your accounts manually or get in touch to resolve any potential merge issues with you.

Q: How long will this take?
A: At its worst, the merge will take up to an hour. During that time you will not be able to log in and play the game. We will notify you in advance via in-game mail about when you can expect this to happen.
