Q: Will my characters still there after merging?

A: Character data merging will stick to the following rules:

1) The following rules is applied to the characters under ONE ACCOUNT.

2) For example, you have more than 3 characters in Jade dragon, Golden Serpent and Iron Monkey server. We will pick up 3 highest-level characters from those 3 servers, and transfer them into the new Jade Dragon server. If there are characters with same level, the one with more coins (including the coins both in your package and in the warehouse) will be saved. To avoid unnecessary lost, please transfer your items and coins into such 3 characters that will be saved before merging begins, other characters will be deleted after merging.

3) To reduce the server pressure caused by merging such large number of data, all characters which has not been logged in the server within 60 days and character’s level lower than 20 will be abandoned. We apologize for any disadvantage it will make.

4) You can take the following pictures to clearly see the merging rules and think how to keep the character you want. Rules in the examples listed will be applied to not only the first three servers, but also the latest three servers:

Q: What if I have same name with other’s from different realm?

A: If the realm your character belonged is kept as the new realm, your name will stay the same as usual. If your realm is merged into another realm, a suffix will be added to your name. For Example, there are 2 characters named LuYan in both JD and GS. When the merge finished, the character LuYan from JD will remain the same and the character LuYan from GS will be renamed as LuYan@GS.

Q: Will my in-game items and coins disappear after merging?

A: If the character is transferred into new realm, all items and coins in this character will be kept. If your character isn’t transferred into the new realm, all coins and items it had will be deleted.
