DDO Server Transfers 2025
New 64-bit servers will go live on July 15th and you will have until August 31st to transfer characters off the 32-bit servers before they are closed.
At a later date TBD, SSG will reopen the 32-bit game worlds only for players to prepare their characters for transfer with no questing or other gameplay available for two years.
In preparation for the transfer, use the code 100SLOTS to gain a free 100 Shared Account Bank slots on all servers! edit

Temporary hit point
Some effects award a character additional, special hit points called temporary hit points. Any damage the characters suffer that would normally affect their real hp applies to their temporary hp first. As their name implies, they don't last forever—only until they're used up or the buff that granted them wears off.
Temporary hp appear as a number with a "+" sign, in parentheses, after the character's real hp count on top of his red hp bar. This temporary HP barrier can be considered an "innermost" defensive layer as inbound attacks still get reduced by all damage reduction you have first (PRR, MRR, Energy Resistance/Absorption, the Stoneskin spell, etc) before you start losing temporary HP. This is in sharp contrast to something like Protection from Elements, a pseudo-temporary HP barrier against several energy types which takes damage before most damage reductions have taken effect.
Bonuses and penalties that affect healing amounts do not affect temporary hit point gains.
Stacking and depletion order[edit]
Different sources of temporary HP stack. Temporary HP from the same source don't stack and only the highest value applies. (Aid and Mass Aid are considered the same source and don't stack.)
Temporary hit points are depleted in the same order as they were applied, i.e., first-in, first-out.https://www.reddit.com/r/ddo/comments/8mrraj/comment/dzq2ya2/
