114130-so-do-i-transfer-now-or-wait-for-megaservers

== Content ==
			Currently I am a warrior on thunderfoot. I am not in a guild but thinking of joining one only because I am stuck where I am and trying to do the attunement by pugging is tedious and slow. I like playing solo with occasional PUG only because i can play when I want to due to my schedule. My  realm in the last week  has become  almost deserted. The auction house  is devoid of any items to buy (of course now that I have the cash to improve my character). I need to do Malgrave to finish the next step in attunement but the wait times to pug are insane and then if you get in somebody drops. frustrating. if I transfer now will there be more items to buy and more players where I transfer to or is it better to wait for the Megaservers (whenever that is)? is it better to join a guild now or to wait. I am not too familiar with the whole online gaming thing. Thanks

			Thunderfoot is PVE NA

Transfer to Stormtalon now.  You have no guild, so I don't know why you haven't already left Thunderfoot.
 
Stormtalon is bumpin'.
 
Megaservers just means all PVE servers become 1 big PVE server, and all PVP servers become 1 big PVP server (per region).
 
If you don't transfer now, you'll be automatically transferred in a couple of weeks, so there's no reason to wait.
 
Unless you're Dominion, then I think Aventus has the better Dommie population right now (needs confirmation)?

You have two choices, each with their own pros and cons.
 
Move Now:
You might see more players in the capital and a bigger selection in the AH/CX.  There may be more guilds to pick from.  Then again, you might end up worse then you already are.
 
Stay:
You will continue having access to empty AH/CX.  The guilds you know are all there is.  Though, with fewer players you have open farming spots.  No one is in the way when questing, as no one is even in the zone.
 
TL:DR:  If the move is free, why not?  If you're paying, then I'd wait.  The Queue system is cross server, so moving to another won't make the PuG times faster.

			the megaserver transfer is inevitable so let's analyze pros and cons of transferring now in the meantime. Pro - you'll be able to PUG Malgrave. Auction house will have items. You can still solo if you want as there will be tons of people leaving joining a guild more optional. Cons - .....lots of noise?

Move ASAP!
 
1. Transfers at the moment are not only free but also cross-realm rule sets. Most significantly, that means, you can cross the PvP-PvE barrier, especially important when the most popular servers tend to be PvP.
 
2. Once Megaservers hit, not only will transfers no longer be free but you will not be able to cross the remaining realm rule sets.
 
3. You can gear up quickly and cheaply as possible before having to wait for megaservers.

 You'd think the queues wouldn't be any faster, but for some reason they are.

			thank you to all who replied. I think I will transfer now since it's free and roaming around questing etc on my own is becoming boring. I can investigate the guilds there  and choose to join if I so desire down the road. I was fine where I was until the past week when it's like suddenly everyone up and left. and yes I am Pve and an Exile.
