Uh oh! I missed the transfer and am on Masamune...I'm screwed, huh?

[Ozreth]

I'm a legacy member who missed the transfer period simply due to not paying attention to game happenings over the last couple of months.

I've been doing my research and see that I am now stuck on the server I left off on, Masamune, which is apparently now a Japanese server?

If I'm correct this means that most of the people I will be playing with will be in the Japanese time zone, and that the sever is located in Japan. So I am potentially facing lag and a lack of people to play with.

If this is the case and I decide to reroll on a NA server will I retain all of my legacy items and goobue etc with my new character?

Thanks!

Well at least you two are stuck on the same server ...

Well, you could hope they open up the World Transfer Service sooner rather than later and pay whatever fee to move to an NA Legacy world.

To answer you question, you don't keep anything. The only items that show up on all newly-created characters are the bonus items that register to your account via a code, like the Onion Helm.

Legacy items. Yes.
Goobbue mount. No.
Survivor tattoo. No.

Ah, so they might open up transfers again at some point? I can deal with that. I might even like staying on Masamune. And that's a bummer about the items but it makes sense. Thanks for the info!

Yeah they said eventually they will see about allowing server transfers again ^^

Masamune is certainly located in Japan, but popular server for english players in JP servers.Many AUS/NZ/OCEANIC english players will join there.
It won't so hard to find people to play with you.

[Nix]

@OP: there are a lot of english speaking players on Masamune as Flat-Out stated^^, so even if you're stuck there for the time being you may end up really liking it !

And also, we share the same character first name, you're the first person I've bumped into that does XD

[KairiSgheart]

You don't have to worry about no english or such people on masamune, alot of oceanic and international linkshell,free company are heading there. Thus it got fill up so fast lol. =p

Me and my team also heading there

My post isn't going to help you in anyway whatsoever and I don't mean to sound like an ass, but...

How come it always seems like there's always a group of people who come back right at the end of a deadline to say they missed the deadline after MONTHS of time?
