Server Transfer
October 7, 2026 at 12:03 AM
Initial version (2026-10-07)
A server transfer moves characters to another server of the same faction. Each AION 2 server houses only one faction, so a transfer is how an existing character joins friends on a different server of its faction.
NCsoft's global notice of September 30, 2026 says server transfers will be available from October 14, 2026, that they will be free at first, and that players will be able to move between servers within the same faction. Characters made on Advance Access servers will only be able to transfer between Advance Access servers, not to the commercial launch servers. NCsoft gave this as the reason to accept a recommended server instead of waiting in a long queue, and reminded players that all instanced content, dungeons included, is cross-server anyway. As of October 7, 2026 the global notices give no further conditions, prices after the free period, or list of what carries over. Everything below this section describes the Korean service only and is not confirmed for the global service. Servers and Regions lists the global servers.
The Korean service has opened server transfers as limited sales in the shop rather than as a permanent service.
Window | Applications |
|---|---|
July 22 to July 28, 2026 | Daily from 20:00 to 24:00 |
August 26 to September 1, 2026 | Daily from 20:00 to 24:00 |
The shop's Server Transfer tab was removed again on September 9, 2026. NCsoft noted that the product could be sold again in the same or a similar form.
Charge | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
Base fee | 1,000 Quna | Once per account per window |
Per character | 200 Quna per character moved | No limit on the number of characters |
Slot expansion | 1,000 Quna per slot | Needed when the destination has no unlocked empty slot |
NCsoft's own example: moving two characters costs 1,400 Quna, or 3,400 Quna if both of the destination server's free slots are locked and need expanding. Each account can move from one server to one server per window. Transfer volumes into and out of each server were updated daily at 20:00, and a transfer was impossible once the origin had closed departures or the destination had closed arrivals.
Only characters of level 45 or higher can transfer.
The character must be in a town, not in the Abyss, a Spacetime Rift or a dungeon.
The character must not be in a legion or have a pending legion application.
No Duty (mission) can be in progress.
Nothing can be left unclaimed: no items listed on, to be collected from or awaiting settlement in the Market, nothing waiting in the shop's storage box, and no unread mail in the moving character's mailbox.
Almost everything moves with the character, and account-wide progress such as titles, achievements, the Closet, pets and Theostones is merged into the destination server and reset on the origin.
Item | Transferred |
|---|---|
Character, Cube inventory, character storage | Yes |
Kina | Only Kina in the Cube and character storage; Kina in server storage stays behind |
Quna and Mileage | Yes, added to the destination's balance |
Abyss Points, daily Kina and Abyss Point earnings | Yes |
Membership and queued membership passes | Yes, merged into the destination and removed from the origin; an active membership pass is completed and paid out |
Daeva Pass and Growth Support (per character) | Yes, with progress |
Daeva Pass and Growth Support (per server) | Not allowed if the destination already has the same one active |
Daevanion, skills and Stigmas, quests, exploration | Yes |
Titles, achievements, Closet appearances and collection points, wings, Theostones, Pantheon, Arcana, Monoliths, Empyrean Traces | Yes |
Pets: levels, collection stages and rewards, genus crystals | Yes. For Genus Insight you choose either the origin's or the destination's; the origin's is reset either way. |
Server storage | Only the expansion count (the higher of the two servers applies); stored items do not move |
Character slot expansions | Stay on the origin server and do not add slots on the destination |
Content reward counts, tickets, season missions, season ranking points | Yes |
Supply requests, material conversion and crafting records, gathering skills, attendance | Yes |
Friends list and friend block list | Yes |
Mail block list | No |
Market history, customization, registered Style Shop looks, item recovery history | Yes |
Special shop pets and appearances move too. If the destination already owns the same special pet, the character gets a Pet Exchange Ticket for the shop, or a Daeva Pass Shop Coin: Encore if it came from the pass shop; duplicate decorative appearances that cannot be restyled are refunded later with a single-item exchange ticket. Styles registered in the Style Shop can still be downloaded and pay out after a move, but keep the creator name and server from when they were made.
Every transferred character is renamed to a temporary @name, even if its name is free on the destination, and picks a new name on its first login. A name already taken on the destination cannot be reused.
A completed transfer cannot be cancelled or reversed.
The account returns to the title screen and cannot log in while the transfer runs; it takes at least a minute, longer when many players apply, and finishes with a PURPLE push notification.
