The opening of a new server generally goes hand in hand with inevitable naming problems. This name reservation system should alleviate some of those pain points by giving a bit of structure to the opening of servers and the ability to reserve the name you want without feeling rushed to do so.

This system will help prevent name-grabbing by people who don't play using that name. It will also help reduce the first-day load on login servers by people who aren’t really looking to play on day one but are looking to reserve their names.

We’re sure you want to know the name of the server you should reserve your names for, so let us tell you! The 2025 TLP Server will be named Fangbreaker and will launch on May 28, 2025 at 12:00 P.M. (noon) PDT! To learn more about this server's ruleset, please visit our FAQ HERE!

 

Below is a breakdown of how this system works:

  • For 499 DBC, a name can be reserved for an existing character with a minimum level and played time.
    • The character’s name must pass all character creation name validity checks.
    • The character must be level 50 or higher for any of the character’s personas.
    • Tiered Played Time Requirements determine when the current character's name can be reserved.
      • When you try to reserve a name, it will check against the active tier and won't allow the reservation if you have less played time.
        • 200 days (4800 hours) or more of played time reservations will open on 4/30/2025 at 12:00 p.m. PDT
        • 100 days (2400 hours) or more of played time reservations will open on 5/7/2025 at 12:00 p.m. PDT
        • 40 days (960 hours) or more of played time reservations will open on 5/14/2025 at 12:00 p.m. PDT
        • 10 days (240 hours) or more of played time reservations will open on 5/21/2025 at 12:00 p.m. PDT
    • On launch day, any non-reserved names are first-come, first-served.
  • The “/reservename” command can be used to open a window on demand to reserve your name as well as view your existing reservation(s) and current and next reservation tiers.
  • Characters with recently changed names will not be eligible for 30 days after the name change.
  • Reservations will last a year after the server launches.
  • Reservations will be consumed when the character with that name is created.
    • You cannot get this reservation back once you have created a character with this reservation. If you delete or rename the character on the new server, this name will be released and will be able to be used by any account.
  • Reservations can only be made from Live servers. Test characters cannot be used to reserve names.
