Tried 2 PC's, Chrome, ie9, Firefox - all the same problem with the greyed out button and no characters/servers in the lists.
From: The Harbinger (North America)
To: Dalborra (Asia Pacific)
Characters: Derriden, Jinx'xi
I've got the names reserved with level 1 characters. I was planning on waiting til the transfer had completed, deleting the two level 1's and then logging in to my transferred toons and changing the name to their original names at that point.
Two questions:
Is there some sort of waiting period or is the name of a deleted character made available instantly? Will test this out now with a new test character. (EDIT: Tested this, deleted a toon then created new straight away with the same name, worked no problem)
Is there some built in logic that will stop this working? Like, does the 'change character name at first login' thing block your desired name by default cos it 'knows' it's not available? Little 'clever' things like this are put in software all the time.
