Nivek_Sivad Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 So, if I transfer my Juggernaut, who is the head of my Legacy, does my legacy transfer with him? Or his stronghold? I moved from Begeren Colony to Ebon hawk, and I feel like I wasted my money(13.7mil, 6k Cartel Coins, 51 Cartel Certificates and 3k PvP comms) on my stronghold due to the fact that it's on a server I don't even live on anymore. Is there a way to transfer atleast my stronghold to my new server, or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomla Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 That is a lot of money you spent on that house. It would be a shame to abandon it after doing all that work, I hope you can get it sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackavaar Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Yes, your Legacy transfers with him, your Strongholds do not. Sorry, bud. That's a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nivek_Sivad Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 Yes, your Legacy transfers with him, your Strongholds do not. Sorry, bud. That's a shame. Even if I pick up all the decorations on him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muljo_Stpho Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) From what I've read (haven't done this myself) all of the data about what you have unlocked in your strongholds and decorations WILL copy over but the specific layout within each stronghold you've put together will NOT copy over. Apparently, on the server that a character was transferred onto, you will have to visit the terminal on fleet / on planet to "reactivate" the stronghold (not sure if that applies if you already had a copy of that stronghold on that server or if it would acknowledge it as active from that server's copy being active) so you would have to pay the purchase price again if your original purchase was not made with cartel coins. But any room unlocks on the first server will carry over to the new server and you can start rebuilding your layout with all the same decorations that were unlocked on the first server. edit: Also on a more general note about your question. There is no such thing as "head of the legacy" in server transfers. You might use the legacy family tree to roleplay such a thing for your own purposes, but the game does not recognize or do anything with any of that. The data that is copied over from the first server's legacy over to the second server's legacy will include the same stuff regardless of which character you transfer. You will get the highest legacy level between the two, and it will go through your legacy unlocks and achievements and transfer everything that's further along than whatever the second server's legacy had already unlocked / accomplished. Also note that your decorations list (aside from companions, pets, and vehicles) belongs to the legacy in general, not to any one character. Picking up the decorations first on the first server would have zero impact on how they get copied to the second server with the rest of the legacy data.

Where did you find this information, if you don't mind me asking? Also, on the "head of Legacy" thing, I thought there was some significance as to what character all the other characters branch from, ya' know what I'm trying to say?

Also, on the "head of Legacy" thing, I thought there was some significance as to what character all the other characters branch from, ya' know what I'm trying to say? Other topics where people mention what happened when they did it. Although as I search to see if I can bring up the same topic I was thinking of I am seeing a couple contradictory reports out there, so... It might be better to wait it out so they can shake the bugs out of the system before you try it yourself? Most of the posts do seem to be saying the same thing that I relayed to you. There are just a few that report less than that getting copied over. I did not see any official dev posts on the subject, if that's what you're asking for. And yeah, I got what you were saying and the answer is that the only relevance that the family tree diagram has on anything is whatever roleplay background story you might want to imagine for your own purposes. Nothing in the game itself ever actually uses your diagram for anything. One player can have a carefully constructed family tree with carefully thought out back stories and everything while a second player can ignore the family tree completely and a third player can throw a tree together haphazardly but not really mean anything by it, and none of it will change how the system handles any transfer that any of them might ask for.

Nivek_Sivad Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 Just got off the phone with Customer support. The dude, who may I note poorly described the issue and solution, said that there is NO way to get decorations onto another server, through transferring characters. That really sucks. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
