How many Veteran Ranked toons do you guys have / planning to have once it goes live? :)

Right now I have 3 Veteran ranked characters. VR12 DK, VR9 NB and a VR2 SORC.

    1, i have no use for Alts. Plus I should be able to get plenty of Champ points off just one character.

    I have 3 vets now and I'm contemplating starting another so that I'll have a vet of each class when the champ system comes out.

    Not if I'm only playing 1 character. I'm in no rush to cap out champ points and complain there's nothing to do.

    I have a level 30, and a 40 alts. If I can get them up I will be happy. I have 2 alts in other factions but I don't really play them or enjoy them I just use them for hirelings.

  • DuelWieldingCheesyPoofs

    I have 1 VR1, he has been sitting in the bank in Daggerfall for 2 months. He will probably stay there because I have zero interest in doing the story's for the other factions.

    By the time the champion system comes out I will probably have at least on more just sitting there also.

    There'a problem with that logic at least in the mean time, when the cap is at around VR14-16 and you have multiple characters able to get you well over 40+
    before it comes out.

    I plan on maxing the two I have before starting and hopefully maxing a NB for lols, it should be interesting. A guildie of mine is sitting on 3 rank 12s and a rank 10 or something, so there's that.

    I don't want to be maxed out when it comes out or I'll have nothing to work toward. I'd rather have 0 champ points when it comes out so I have a reason to do stuff and get XP for the points. Cause lets face it, the Champion system is gonna be its own update. They may bring out some bigger delves or something but I doubt they are going to introduce Champ system and Murkmire at the same time or something.

    I will have my templar on whatever VR the devs decide to have at the time , probably the way things are going , templar VR 20.

    And that is it , my other 7 chars are all mules , i had other plans for them before , i did reserve names for all 8 chars , but takes too long to lvl a char in this game and even if you grind it you still need the skill points ... not worth it.

    For now im just gathering achivs.

    getting a character to 50 is easy, you can grind vr in crag if you wanna do it fast. fyi, they are removing vr when the champ system comes.

    Question: Why do I need alt toons in Vet ranks to take advantage of the champion system?

    What benefit does it give me?

    New perk trees, they enhance character attributes; how has not been said with a concrete answer.

    Your veteran ranks / xp get's converted to champion points when the system goes live.

    Have they specified that every character will cumulatively add champion points to the account?

    It was said that champion points will be shared across all characters. I guess the assumption is that your cumulative veteran ranks equate to your pool of champion points for the account, yes.

    Yes , but the char will be just a pile of lvls/VR.

    If you dont do much of the content , you wont gather skill points that are something you need.

    You will end up with a crippled char until you go back and do it.

    In preparation for the champion system I will be logging off after I hit VR14 on my main, and playing something else. Depending in how long that wait may be I might allow my sub to lapse. No sense in putting in the time now when there's plenty of other games coming out. Better too just pay it no mind until it's live. By then I'll be through the games that are coming out in the next couple months.

    I do read quite a bit, and while I have guessed that this would be the case, I haven't seen a single ZO post that actually confirmed that every VR character on your account will add to your champion point total.

    Not everyone wants to know the details until they are live. I've played plenty of MMO's and took advantage of a lot changes I knew were coming. Seems to spoil the game a bit for me. Only reason I'm looking into this is I watched the preview & just hit level 50/VR1. Not entirely sure I have a grasp on what VR currently is, but I'm either just gonna go back to progressing as I was or wait until this goes live.

    I'm not entirely sure the VR to champion point conversion has been discussed in detail yet. While a straight VP-XP-CP conversion could work, I'd rather see achievements and alliance points woven in there as well. That way grinding can still remain the fastest way to level cap, but won't allow for purely grinding out CPs as well.

    The highest level alt I have is 22. I prefer to play my main, I still have a lot of pvp ranks to grind up.
