Free Transfers off Balmung Now Available

Hi everyone, just saw this posted on Lodestone regarding which worlds are listed as Congested and Preferred:

They reopened character transfers late last night. Free transfers are available to the worlds Coeurl, Goblin, Mateus, Zalera. Transferring from congested worlds such as Balmung and Gilgamesh to the aforementioned preferred worlds have practically no gil restrictions, it refunds your housing costs, and it will give you rewards and bonuses outlined by clicking here.

If you have no strong attachment to Balmung, or want to play with friends new to the game since character creation and transfers here are locked, please consider transferring. It will really help with the 2000-3000+ queues that hit us every single patch/housing release. I remember reading about establishing an RP community on Mateus as well. I foresee a big rush for housing when Shirogane opens and for those without housing, going to these worlds will help avoid that. Also, cross-realm PF has made it easy to PF battles anyway.
