The pain/joy 1.6.5 gives an alt-aholic

Yes, I'm an alt-aholic, and 1.6.5 is the most massive OMGNEEDMOREALTS incentive in possibly my entire gaming history. I'll need to make several alts just to figure out how to re-allocate my points on my existing "real" characters. It'll be weeks if not MONTHS more before I even begin to go back to normal play.
"Why didn't you just test on PTS over the last few weeks?" the (sane) player would ask. To this, I would respond "What, are you crazy, and lose this great excuse to spin up so many alts?!?!? Stop being so sensible!"
I may never recover.
::::shakes fist:::: at ZOS while simultaneously saying thank you Thank You THANK YOU.

Deheart✭✭✭I too am an Alt-Aholic, and I approve this message.As a casual player I was satisfied that at one point I had a char max level and near max crafting with almost all motifs and I pretty much lost interest. Then ESO discovered DLC's and now my main is just a wanabe and I am happily pulled back into the game.1 -

@onlinegamer1, Clicking 'Awesome' wasn't enough. I had to actually tell you how awesome I find your post. Great movie, greatest ad-libbed line ever, and great usage.Edited by Sue_D_Nim on March 3, 2015 8:42PM"If danger doesn't find her, she'll seek it out and invite it home to dinner." ~ Prince Naemon

This is why I think subs should get free respecs. We shouldn't have to roll alts to figure out the best way to spec our mains.

✭✭✭✭✭It actually does the opposite for me. Not making any overall progress with champion points with a new alt. Otherwise; I would love to do it more as a change from my regular stuff on my main.0 -

To give you an idea of the depths of my alt-aholic-ness (and how slowly I play), I have been playing steadily since launch and my highest level character is mid-30s.
Slow like coral growth + alt-itis = What is this thing you call end game?!?!0 -

✭I'm making a Sorcerer for the Ebonheart Pact so I can play with my lover, I'm making either a Templar for the Pact, or a Templar for the Dominion...... Then I'll have four characters total....... I'm not an alt-o-holic because there's no reason to be one, a max rank of every class makes me a happy camper.Aldmeri Dominion For Life!

Being an alt-aholic isn't about reasons, it's a way of life. ;-)
It's great though that you have found a play style and approach that makes you happy. That's what gaming SHOULD be about, so good for you and your love!Edited by karmamule on March 3, 2015 10:06PM1 -

✭I don't like making more than one character but I'm forced to do it thanks to the champion system ! yeah!
Don't get me wrong, the champion system is great but doing all the quests over again for those points is boring (to stay polite).Edited by Sotha_Sil on March 3, 2015 10:26PMRestoration is a perfectly valid school of magic, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! - Spells and incantations for those with the talent to cast them!1 -

Vanzen✭✭✭✭✭I have one V14 char, alliance rank 24 ; and 2 mules/crafter lvl23/lvl4. And I d get paid that I wouldnt lvl an other char. But I spent the wole month on pts testing every possible build and armor sets, so I know perfectly well what am gonna do on live. Am specially happy as I wont waste like 80 gold tempers and stuff for nothing as I would have done if I had not been testing..
Have fun with your alts !
