Have 6 slots - all PvE chars (don't keep a spare PvP slot - goes against the grain

...

I have 2 main - 1 for each Chapter; the rest I use for getting to grips with lesser used chars (my necro is a year old now and this time last year, Necros were the Mesmers of the day

)...

Was going to remove one (prob the Assassin) but if I can buy slots then I'll grab 1 for pure PvP...

I'm gunna try keep my account with enough character slots for:

*Enough for one pve character of each proffesion.
*One extra for a PvP slot(Re-roll ftw).

I have a ranger and a monk. These chars allow me to farm everything there is in guildwars. So my other slots are for pvp.
PvP is taking all my time atm so I'm not making new chars anyway.
But can there ever be too much slots? imo no

Forelli. I think 26 is too much. It goes to show Anet doesn't support healthy gameplay

I don't see why they are selling 26 slots per character, it just seems such a big number for such a game where theres only 8(nearly 10) classes.

Aint the new max 30 char slots? Thats a RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing lot but people do replace theyr life with guild wars...

Well, I think it's entirely up to you, and only you can make that decision. Personally, I'm happy with my 6 char slots right now. I have all Prophecies toons, even though I do have Factions. If I get Nightfall, I may create a Nightfall toon and a Factions toon, that is if ANet is still giving us 2 slots for merging.

Ashleigh McMahon · Jul 27, 2006, 01:44 PM // 13:44

Yep they are. 4 slots for a single account, 2 extra for merging.

I think they should offer as many slots as someone is willing to buy. For myself, I rarely delete characters. I have an attachment to all of mine. That's not to say that I don't delete a char once in a while. I do, but it's usually one that I've just created and there's something I don't like about them. I'll never delete a character I've finished one or both campaigns with. I've spent too much time, energy (and devotion?) on them. That also doesn't mean I'm going to buy buttloads of slots. For now, I have more than enough to keep me happy.

People have preferences and that's the only reason they are offering to give/sell those slots (for those hardcore players). IMO its too many but thats because I have 6 slots (+2 from factions), 3 of which are maxed out multipurpose characters (Mo/X, W/X, N/X), and the other three are start ups that I may or may not restart. For those who are PvP orientated, they are of course going to want those extra slots for a quick build ftw.. the rest of us, PvE and mix of both, are satisfied with the 4-6-8 chars we will have and we won't ever max out all chars because of the time involved.

Amen, Ashleigh. I think this will be the general consensus between players. Some will probably buy a mule if the storage system stays the same.

Ashleigh McMahon · Jul 27, 2006, 07:05 PM // 19:05

True

I'd pay a small fee of cash for slightly expanded storage, but not more than 2$ for 10 slots.

I agree with all of this--I'm the same way. I have two accounts so I have 12 slots. I won't be buying any more. At the moment, I have two characters that have finished Prophecies, one character that's finished Factions, and one character who has only Hell's Precipice left in Prophecies. In addition, I have two characters on the go who look like they'll be keepers. That leaves six slots that I play around with--I'll often create a character, play them for a bit, and then decide I don't like them for whatever reason. At the moment, I have four low level characters I'm trying out--an assassin, a rit, an ele, and a warrior. I did delete one character that I'd completed Prophecies with, only because I honestly didn't think I'd play her again. I sometimes regret that, so I'll be a little slower on the delete next time.
