AION 2 Global Server Transfer Dates and Application Hours
Getting your Daevas onto the same server as your friends takes more than picking a destination. The AION 2 Global server transfer event gives your account one move, making character slots, shared collections, and storage preparation decisions worth settling beforehand. With AION 2 Global server transfer opening in separate weeks for Early Access and Launch servers, check your server group before planning your move.
Transfers are scheduled to begin after the October 13 maintenance in Pacific time. Your application window depends on both your server group and region.
| Server group | Opens after maintenance | Closes before maintenance |
|---|---|---|
| Early Access | October 13 PDT / October 14 CEST | October 20 PDT / October 21 CEST |
| Launch | October 20 PDT / October 21 CEST | October 27 PDT / October 28 CET |
These dates are maintenance boundaries. Applications also operate within daily regional windows, so the service does not remain open around the clock throughout each week.
| Region | First daily window, PDT | Second daily window, PDT |
|---|---|---|
| North America East | 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. | 3:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m. |
| North America West | 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. | 3:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m. |
| Europe | 3:00 a.m.–7:00 a.m. | 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. |
| South America | 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. | 3:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m. |
| Asia | 8:00 p.m.–midnight the following day | 2:00 a.m.–6:00 a.m. |
All hours in this table use PDT, including the Europe and Asia rows. Convert them to your local time before scheduling your session.
For AION 2 Global server transfer, meeting the calendar deadline does not guarantee an available destination. Departure and destination servers both have transfer capacity limits. Check your intended route during an application window, and coordinate with friends before committing.
Transfer Costs, Character Slots, and Destination Rules
The base transfer price and per-character charge are both 0 Quna. The expense to watch is destination character space.
| Charge | Price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Base transfer | 0 Quna | The account’s transfer request |
| Per-character transfer | 0 Quna | Each character included |
| Additional destination slot | 1,000 Quna | Each extra character slot required |
For example, moving six characters to a server with four available slots requires two additional slots, costing 2,000 Quna. Count empty slots on the destination before selecting your roster.
Character slot expansions already used on your current server stay there. They do not expand your destination’s roster capacity. You can transfer to a server where you already have characters, provided enough slots are available or can be purchased. Selecting more characters than the destination’s maximum expandable capacity blocks the request.
The AION 2 Global server transfer rules also limit where your account can go:
- Transfers stay within the same region.
- Transfers stay within the same faction.
- Early Access characters can move only between Early Access servers.
- Each account gets one transfer during the entire event.
- That transfer moves characters from one departure server to one destination server.
There is no separate limit on how many characters you can include in that single move, but eligibility and destination slots still apply. Select your full intended roster together; the once-per-account restriction leaves no second application for characters you decide to move later.
Check your friends’ region, faction, and server group before buying additional slots. A matching server name alone is insufficient because the regional restriction still applies.
Prepare Your Characters Before Applying
Start your AION 2 Global server transfer preparation with the requirements that can disable the purchase button. Eligible characters must be Level 10 or higher, and the characters selected for the move must come from the same server.
The character submitting the application must be in a village. Applications cannot be made from the Abyss, a Spacetime Rift, or a dungeon.
Work through this checklist before your region’s window opens:
- Finalize your roster. Check character levels and count the destination slots you need.
- Clear Legion restrictions. Leave the Legion and remove any pending Legion membership application.
- Clear active Duty [Missions]. These prevent transfer eligibility.
- Resolve Market activity. Clear sale listings and collect pending items and sale proceeds.
- Empty unclaimed Shop Storage. This includes unclaimed Founder’s Pack items.
- Claim the transferring characters’ mail. Unclaimed mail blocks the service.
- Move valuables out of Server Storage. Put items and Kina you want to take into a transferring character’s inventory or Character Storage.
- Return the applying character to a village. Then open the transfer menu during the appropriate hours.
Check mail again immediately before applying, especially if you are expecting compensation or other deliveries. A newly received, unclaimed item can leave the account short of the purchase requirements.
Keep active Duty [Missions] separate from Supply Requests when reviewing your journal. Duty [Missions] block the application, while ongoing Supply Requests transfer with their completion and reward history.
Once ready, open In-Game Shop → Server Transfer, choose the characters and destination, and review the application. The purchase button activates when the requirements are satisfied. Selecting an unavailable destination produces a notification in the request interface.
What Transfers: Currency, Storage, Collections, and Progress
Storage preparation deserves extra attention during AION 2 Global server transfer. Character Storage moves with your character, including its contents and purchased expansion slots. Server Storage has a different rule: its contents stay behind.
| Item or system | Transfer behavior |
|---|---|
| Character inventory and Character Storage | Contents transfer; Character Storage expansions carry over |
| Kina | Transfers from the character’s inventory and Character Storage |
| Server Storage contents | Items and Kina do not transfer |
| Server Storage expansions | Destination uses the higher expansion count from either server |
| Quna and Mileage | Move from the departure server and add to destination balances |
| Membership and Daeva Pass | Membership combines at the destination; Pass progress carries over |
| Pets, Skins, and Titles | Move under their collection rules; departure-server holdings are removed |
| Friends and character Blocked lists | Carry over |
| Mail Block List | Does not carry over |
Protect Your Kina and Shared Storage Items
Move the Kina you intend to take out of Server Storage before applying. The transfer includes Kina held in the selected character’s inventory and Character Storage.
Server Storage capacity uses the higher expansion count between the two servers. Those expansion counts are not added together. Your destination can therefore retain the larger capacity while receiving none of the items left in the departure server’s shared storage.
Quna and Mileage move in full from your current server and combine with balances already on the destination.
Review Collections Before Leaving Alts Behind
Pets and Skins move to the destination and are removed from the departure server. Characters you leave behind can no longer equip those transferred Pets and Skins. Membership also moves away from the current server and combines with any Membership at the destination.
Character-based Titles retain their state. Server-based Titles combine with destination Titles, and departure-server Titles are removed. Character-based Achievements carry over, while server-based Achievement progress uses whichever server has the higher progress.
Pets and Genus Crystals combine with the destination collection. For Genus Insight, you choose the progress from either the departure or destination server. The departure server’s Genus Insight resets regardless of that choice.
Compare both Genus Insight records before selecting one. That choice is part of the AION 2 Global server transfer process and determines which progress applies afterward.
Handle Duplicate Shop Purchases
Shop-purchased Special Pets and Skins generally transfer. Duplicate Special Pets produce a Pet Reward Ticket, while duplicate non-customizable decorative Skins produce a Skin (Single) Reward Ticket.
A Pet Reward Ticket lets you request a refund through Customer Support for eligible Pets purchased on the departure server. A Skin (Single) Reward Ticket can purchase the Shop’s 300 Quna item. Both tickets expire at the November 24 maintenance in PST. Handle them before that maintenance begins.
Duplicate eligible Pets or non-customizable Skins purchased through the Pass Shop receive a refund in Pass Coins.
Keep Your Progress and Reward History
Your active Daeva Pass retains its progress. Wings, Pantheon data, Arcana, Monolith, and collected Empyrean Traces also carry over.
Season Rank Points and Season Mission progress move with the character, including Season Mission reward claim history. Dungeon reward information travels too: remaining Cube Reward claims and attempts toward guaranteed rewards retain their state.
Character-specific Abyss time, Spacetime Rift time, and Abyss Corridor usage transfer. Access to the Abyss Corridor still depends on whether it has been captured on your destination server.
Server-wide reward progress for Daily Dungeons, Shugo Festival, and Dimensional Invasion transfers while remaining unchanged on the departure server.
Transfer Completion, Renaming, and Troubleshooting
A completed transfer request cannot be canceled or reversed. Review the destination, selected characters, extra slot charges, and Genus Insight choice before submitting.
When processing begins, you return to the title screen and the account cannot log in. An AION 2 Global server transfer takes at least one minute, with longer processing possible when more requests are queued. PURPLE users receive a push notification when the transfer finishes.
Every transferred character receives “@TemporaryName”, even when the previous name is available. Set a name on the character’s first login after the move. You can reuse the old name only if another character has not taken it on the destination.
Friends lists retain their entries, and your friends see your newly chosen name. Registered Style Shop creations remain available, but their displayed creator and server names retain the original information.
If the service is unavailable, check:
- Server-group timing: Early Access uses the first week; Launch uses the second.
- Regional application hours: Applications close between daily windows.
- Transfer capacity: Either server’s limit can block the route, including when you already have a destination character.
- Eligibility and unclaimed items: Recheck Legion status, Duty [Missions], Market activity, Shop Storage, and mail.
- Processing restrictions: Transfers can be temporarily restricted to maintain stable processing.
Coordinate the destination with your group before using the account’s single move. Instanced content, including dungeons, supports cross-server play, so check whether playing that content together already meets your immediate needs.
FAQ
Is AION 2 Global server transfer free?
The base and per-character charges are 0 Quna. Additional destination character slots cost 1,000 Quna each. Moving six characters with only four available slots costs 2,000 Quna for the two extra slots.
Can I transfer between regions or switch factions?
Transfers must remain within the same region and faction. Early Access transfers also stay between Early Access servers. The service does not provide a faction switch or a move between North America East and North America West.
Will my Server Storage items and character slots move?
Server Storage items and Kina stay behind; move them into a transferring character’s inventory or Character Storage beforehand. Server Storage expansion capacity uses the higher count from either server. Used character slot expansions remain on the departure server.
Can I cancel a transfer or keep my character name?
A completed transfer request cannot be canceled or reversed. Every transferred character receives “@TemporaryName” and chooses a name on first login afterward. Your previous name is available only if it is not already taken on the destination server.
