    Does world transfer pass character locked world's?

    Hello. Recently got my friend ffxiv since she got a ps4 . Our group of rl friends(me and 4 others) all play on balmung. We are patiently waiting for it to unlock, but someone mention that she could make a character on another server and just pay the world transfer fee to surpass the lock.

    Is this true?

    I just wanna make sure before I go using 20 dollars lol.

    If not I'll just stick to sitting here hitting refresh on her ps4. Been doing it since yesterday xD

    That's a good question. Behemoth is a well populated server, and I moved here from Diabolos a while back. I created a "feeler" to scope out the MB before I transfered so I could convert my gil to items to make a return/profit since you can only transfer with a mil, retainers with, what 100k i think; but I got the message that the server was full. I was able to work out the items with friends on the server, and when I went through the server transfer, all was well. Popped right in.

    To be safe and super sure, I would research the support site and maybe submit a request or online chat. That way you get the verification from the horses mouth.

    Having transferred to and back a while ago I'm positive the payment doesn't go through until you get the green light to move... unless you need to pre-charge 20 dollars online, then please ignore my comment. ><

    Can confirm it bypasses the lockout. I transferred to Balmung myself from another server back in July.

    Yeah this idea got shot down anyways as she has her 1 month free from buying the game and I read in the terms that you can't be on the trial month

    Actually there are certain requirements that can be met right now with your friends account. By default your newly created mog station account is set to trial user. So you will need to have them put the monthly subscription payment information into mog station and then it will set their account to not be only trial status. This will then allow the character to be transferred even within the trial period. they just need to meet the other transfer requirements. One is that you have to be at a certain point in the main story quests. I can't remember the name of it, but it's not very far in and should be listed in the transfer requirements in mog station. Hope that helps!

    You can also try creating a character at like 1-3am pst, the lock is usually lifted at that time because few people are on. I have done it many times on both Sarg and Balmung as I play between both servers
