    Do you need 9 separate steam accounts to do that? I installed the steam version on a different SSD to do some writs during the anniversary and tried to set up other trial accounts. Can't figure out how.

    I think you are limited to a single ESO game account per Steam, PS4, and XBox account. To get multiple accounts there, I think you need multiple Steam, PS4, and XBox accounts and have to log into each individually.

    STORAGE FOR DAYS!

    That's what I did yesterday. Now I have 2 guild banks. One to storage everything I may need for all my 12 toons. The other one to store things I don't need anymore (or to store white gear with training trait for research in my new alt account toons). You wont believe how nearly full is the first one hehehehehehe.

    Do you really want him to get permabanned for doing that? ZOS already punished several players for doing the same you are advising (unless those accounts are linked to paid account from STEAM).

    Is it possible or allowed to have 2 accounts on the same PC? I'm an altaholic and 12 char slots is nowhere near enough.

    EDIT: only playing one account at a time of course.

    @Baranthus

    Yes, you can. One of my guild mates has 3 accounts, he just logs into each one as needed on the same PC.

    Thanks for the reply Nestor! :) I'm sure its very straigfht forward but how do you run 2 accounts on one machine? - in my case I currently run ESO directly from a short cut. I don't actually use the launcher to play the game. When there's a patch etc I just update the launcher individually. I'd like to run 2 accounts in this way still but I'm not sure how to set it up and how to switch between the 2 accounts.

    I have two accounts on 1 pc, and don't use the launcher, I use a link to the 64bit EXE.
    I go between them (never at the same time, of course). I click the shortcut and at the login screen I type in whichever account name and password I want.
    When I am in game and want to switch, I log out, and at character select I pick "Back". That takes me to the login screen where I type in the account name and password.
    Pretty easy.

    Another cool thing with two non-steam accounts on a single PC: While I need to own and have installed two versions of the game, I run either account from a single exe in one of the directories. And I only need to keep my add-ons in that directory for use by both accounts.
