My experience when I transferred from Siptah to Exiles on PC/Steam after this latest update
5 camels, 3 horses, 1 cat (which has 10 inventory slots) overall a total of 65 thralls.
I was clan leader and the only one in the clan. When I quit the clan (required for transfer), I retained all thralls(65) and inventory.
You CAN NOT be over encumbered when you transfer. I was at 98%.
The transfer was fairly simple. Its a good idea to have an idea what server you want to go to and make sure you dont already have a character on that server.
When I first started the transfer process it showed I had 0 thralls with me. I just cancelled and waited a few minutes. When I tried again it showed I had 65 thralls. I followed all the steps (pretty easy)
It logged me off the server when it finished. I picked a new server and it loaded me in on the character creation screen. One of the options was “import character” . I picked that and it worked.
Here is the tricky part. It spawned me, all by myself, into the Black Keep dungeon in E11. I am not sure what part of the dungeon it was but it took about 10 scary minutes of trying to find a way out. I finally found the secret door (looks like a wall) and it morphed me outside.
I played on this map years ago and remembered that the long bridge to get to a warmer climate, will freeze you to death unless you are prepared for it. I wasn’t. Luckily though I had a 10 stack of healing potion in my inventory. Half way across the bridge, being chased by undead soldiers, I was almost dead. I had just enough time to heal up and make it the rest of the way. I MADE IT!!
I immediately found a spot and built a small building. Once I had a place I could go to my “followers” menu and one by one , respawn them. After respawning 64 followers it would not let me spawn #65. It said I had to many followers. I created a clan with just me and it still wouldn’t work. I just deleted on of the camels after I emptied it and spawned the 65th.
TLDNR - Take a stack of healing potions, and be ready to defend yourself. Take enough supplies to build a quick building including construction hammer. You will arrive ALONE. Hope that helps someone .Good Luck!!
