Just a little thing you got wrong Traylorre:
You can have 8 Characters at Diablo II ... and unlimited accounts on one CD Key!

And you can use one CD Key on all 4 servers at the same time, but i think this is just cause of lazyness. ^^

/sign I think you should have 6, One for each prof, but I can wait till the expansion. And 10 or 12 is too much.

I have for PvE a lvl 20 Wa/Me and Mo/E and just started a R/N to start unlocking all those skills. It is a pain having to make do with only one slot for all the weird PvP ideas I want to try out, ESPECIALLY with the way attribute refund points work currently.

Although I don't like petitions (this is no democracy, not even a dictatorship, you know):

100% /agree to having more character slots.

Sarus · Jul 07, 2005, 05:53 PM // 17:53

Just noticed the post. Some more slots would be nice in my opinion. Although you can unlock all skills with 3 PvE slots and 1 PvP slot that's only assuming you play in the most efficient way possible which I know most people don't. It doesn't hurt anyone to have some more slots for characters. The only valid argument I can think of is the extra cost Anet may or may not incur. That being said the petition isn't "Do you think Anet can afford extra slots". I mean come on .... give Anet a little credit. Do you really think they're so stupid that they'd add the extra character slots and then go out of business because of it?

It's always funnny to read the posts of people who think their brilliant insight is single handedly keeping Anet in business.

I couldn't agree more. AT LEAST 6 :O At least. I want one of each class :P

For no monthly fee, you already have 4 slots. All the Diablo leftovers want dozens, they can go back to D2. You don't even need 6 slots for all six professions, since you could theoretically unlock every skill in the game with just one character. And if they made it six, people would want seven so they could have a PvP slot too. There is no good reason for ANet to expand the number of characters per account no matter how much anyone whines about it, because all they'll be doing is losing money. I definitely agree that it would be a much better idea to add new slots in the expansions, simply to accomodate new proffessions.

Maybe when the expansion comes out they can up it using the money that it brings in. But for now it should be left at four, it might not be enough, but it is the most for now.

As a database person, I'm going to guess that the storage requirements per character are very small...really just a few numbers. I doubt seriously that it would ever be a major cost issue. Number of PLAYERS is a vastly different issue, of course - online players chew up actual bandwith and server cpu horsepower for every zone instance they require. But all the characters probably reside in a fairly small database....

Calimar · Jul 12, 2005, 02:18 PM // 14:18

I don't see why they should need "serious upgrades" - you can still play only ONE char at a time, which means no server upgrade needed. Might need some more storage, but gigabytes of disk space now cost next to nothing. Of course it IS an investment, but I don't think it'd be a serious one.

Me too feels a little tight with 4 chars. I've got 3 PvE chars to cover the 6 classes, and one PvP. Problem with it is, I need a *ready* pvp char for when guild calls (often, I need to be there on the double), so experimenting means building a character, trying it out, then deleting it and making the other one anew. I'd like one more. Don't think you NEED more than that.

More chars in expansion... that's good. I think we'll need it

EDIT: *I* don't think you need more than 5

I'm not telling anyone what they should think, sorry.

4 is enough, i only use 2 of the slots at the moment a monk/ranger and a necro/mesmer, but as soon as my monk is at level 20, i'am deleting my necro, (god i hate that necro)

I'd like more character options too... because I'm a weak, bewildered newbie who wants to experiment.
