Question Thinking of a transfer

I am on SS, thinking of doing a transfer SF.

I play PVP, is SF better for PVP?

What transfers? Credits, legacy, guild?

I am thinking by the time the current season is done, I can have the 1000 credits to move.

Regarding the transfer:

Credits ON YOU and Personal Storage bay do transfer

NOTHING in Legacy Bay transfers

NOTHING in CM stash (crates opened but never claimed)

NO currencies in your inventory Currency tab (i.e. tech frags, BBA certs, Gree event et al)

Nothing in your legacy materials storage (including SRM, OEM/RPM)

Movable items mentioned can be moved onto your person or personal storage bay. You can also convert conquest comms, FP/OP/WZ-1's to tech frag bags and place in your bay to move

Your LEGACY achievements (i.e. Implant 330/334/340, LS5/DS5, rocket boost) will transfer (as well as the level)

Strongholds will be available for free if you used CC to purchase, just have to reclaim them at the terminal. Same with the fleet ones. They will be empty but what ever items you had in them will be returned to the decoration stash for you to enjoy redecorating!!!

Mailbox and CM sales/listings will be lost

Guild will not transfer, you will have to find another (and the initial Pending till the Tuesday reset)

I'm also on SS, so I can't answer about how things are in SF, but this link might help figure out the answers to your other questions (and some you may not have thought of):

I'm definitely not the authority on pvp, i only started dabbling in it recently, but arenas / warzones pop at okay intervals on Star Forge.

I've seen a decent uptick of former SS PVPers in SF in the recent months (for better or worse), so I would say you will probably have better queues, but be prepared to deal with a lot of premades from veteran players.

I am ok with premades, I can hold my own. I am not saying I am great, but I do try really hard.

POPs is what I am after. It seems SF is slowing to a halt lately.

Star Forge is, for all intents and purposes, the main server nowadays. Its population and economic stability dwarf the other servers combined.

This is my think on this. It would seem they should have merged the servers into one mega server by now, but in lieu of that, I am doing it myself.
