Duplicate character on mogstation? (Loadstone seems confused and so am I)

Hi there!

Wasn't sure where I could get help with this so hopefully, someone will know how to help me out here :)

I recently performed a world Transfer for my only character < from Phoenix to Balmung to be with my friend and her FC. I haven't played FFXIV since 2014/5 so I feel that may be part of the issue.

Mogstation is saying I have the same character in both worlds while loadstone is convinced I'm still playing on Phoenix. So my main is kinda just in limbo now, i can still play fine, Balmung isn't causing me any issues but it would be nice for the loadstone to recognise where I am.

What can I do to correct this? Thank you.

You just need to wait :D

The Lodestone doesn't immediately update and takes about 6-8 hours after you logout.

The thing is though i've waited several days for it to update. For a while it did have the correct information; that I was in Balmung but it now only shows my old world and Mog is still showing I have the same character in two worlds.

Update: Still waiting for this issue to resolve itself. Mogstation still believes i have the same character in two homeworlds while the loadstone believes i'm still on my old homeworld (Phoenix)

Would still really love the help!

It's not causing you any problems, so stop worrying about it ^^.
Come back after the lodestone maintenance on the 14th and check again.

I had somewhat of a similar problem. Sometime in the past, I created a character on Faerie world. It had the same name as my main on Hyperion world. Dsherman Siren.

I think I leveled it up to level 17 CNJ and then just left it that way for a while. Then sometime later, I deleted the character.

However, when I look up my character name on the Lodestone, it still shows that character on Faerie (at level 2!). It also shows all the other characters I have correctly.

Out of curiosity, I made yet another character with the same name on Faerie. It was accepted. And then a few days later, I did the character search again on the Lodestone, and it displayed TWO characters named Dsherman Siren on Faerie world. One at level 2 and the other at level 6 (which was correct for this new character at that time),

I have since deleted that second Dsherman Siren on Faerie world. It has disappeared from the display on the Lodestone. But that level 2 character is still there to this day.

The Lodestone does seem to get most characters right... but there do seem to be a few where something has gone wrong.
