    As an alternative to editing name, you can switch between panes (just click to alliance/race selection and then switch back to appearance sliders), that will reset the timeout counter.

    But yes, I've been fighting it a lot. Being obsessive perfectionist, I've been creating my first character (and my second now is pixel-to-pixel copy, same identity down to a diacritical mark in the name - only class differs) for... probably a month. ^^ And was making videos and screenshots to return to same state of tweaking on the next day. This timeout is infuriating.

    I find the timer to be too short as well. Way too short. Tea? I'm afraid to go to the bathroom in case I get logged out.

    One thing I do to reset the timer is type in a character in the name slot. Anything will do. Then, hit another one after a bit. It seems to prolong the time allowance, as just playing with sliders doesn't seem to cut it for some reason.

    Extending the character creation time would be a great QoL improvement for another Update. @ZOS_GinaBruno
    For a moment, nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen. - Douglas Adams

    It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too. - Douglas Adams

    Yup, I’m not looking forward to creating my first Necromancer (Lichney Spears.. fwiw) when Elsweyr drops, l’l be there with a photo of Britney and have a ton of disconnects no doubt and by the time I get to input the character name (reserved on an alt that will be deleted at the last minute) it will probably be gone 😂
