In order to facilitate a smoother in-game experience for our many current players, as well as prepare for the increase in activity expected to come with the release of Shadowbringers, we have made the decision to expand our server infrastructure. Accordingly, one new data centre for North American players, and one for European players, will be created in April.

With the addition of new data centres, however, it will be necessary to redistribute various World servers. The current state of each World’s community and its primary language have been taken into consideration, but we understand that the redistribution may cause difficulties for players nevertheless.

We will be taking various steps to minimize the impact of these changes, including offering free World transfers for all characters on the European and North American Data Centres for a period of approximately two weeks after implementation. We ask for your understanding as we work to create a better experience for all players in the days to come.

Okay so it looks like i DID indeed missunderstand something.

Thanks.
