Why should someone have so many chars ?
I would have been absolutely thrilled about this change once upon a time. Sadly, with the way instance cap works (and the fact that instance cap still affects dungeons and raids you queue for using the group finder tool, like the holiday dungeons) I'm not even making full use of the existing character-per-server cap.I still would like to have at least one of each class on at least my two "primary" servers (one per faction), but it's just too dodgy right now. Maybe in 2097 when the Love Rocket finally drops for me (if I'm still alive by then) :\(In case you weren't aware, you only proc the account-wide instance cap if you try to enter an *eleventh* instance on the same server in an hour. You can run ten instances on server A, and then swap to server B and run ten more instances there and you won't hit cap. I haven't tested how this works with Connected Realms yet—I don't have characters on more than one server per cluster for a variety of reasons—but I've tested it extensively over several years of both LiitA/CCC queues and just powerleveling alts (mine and other peoples').)
I do hope they boost the max characters per account. With the new allied races, there's no reason to not bump it up at least a bit. Isn't the 50 cap a relic from Vanilla?
I'm so excited for this. I'm an altaholic, and being able to have every character on one server is a dream come true.
I find it so dumb that after 15 years we still have the same 50 max character slots... It sucks to have to delete a lvl 90-100 toon only to make a lvl 20 when a new allied race comes out
Nice finally i will transfers all my characters to Sargeras
I have 50 toons spread out on a few realms... but I'm not paying $25.00 per toon to get them all on my main server. I've had the 50 character limit for years now... so while this is cool and all, doesn't really help me much. Now, if they increased the character limit over all to go past 50 toons total? THEN I might get excited because I could make more toons on my home server.
Playing on three connected realms and having character at 50 cap sadly changes nothing.I can understand that it will help for most players but for me new race = delete existing char.
I wish we could trade across servers.
Has anyone ever considerd how great impact this will have on servers economy? It's like here we go with WOD alt's gold factories again...
Don't care about this one bit. Increase the account limit instead and I'll get excited.
This is useless since you can't have more than 50 on your account, which itself is horribly outdated. I'm going to call it here: that will probably what they offer to get you to pre-purchase the next expansion. Because everyone asks for this.
Better get real creative with names...going to be all taken up
