Lost Ark Releases Details on European Region Merge Coming Next Week
Lost Ark’s move to a single European server region is coming on August 30th, and the team has details on how it will all work.

You’ll then have to change your character name when you log in for the first time after the merge. Your friends list will reflect any changed names. Guild names will have a # before their names and leaders will have a guild name change available.
Since the Europe West server region will be no more, any Market or Auction House registrations will be canceled before the merge happens, and all of the transaction history will be deleted. Also being deleted is all chat from Europe West, including chat history and global chat.
