I just returned to ESO, havne't playedin a long time. I'm kind of an alt-o-holic and want to delete all my toons except my main so I can start fresh. It says additional deletions will become available over time but what's the time limit? I understand the reasoning behind it, to battle against bots, but not clear on if I have to wait a day, a week, or more.

    I believe it's 24 - 48 hours. I've deleted a bunch of alts and never seem to run out of deletes.

    I'm not 100% sure on the time but I don't think it's very long that you'll have to wait.

    I guess the new approach would be:
    01. Delete one of your current alts.
    02. Roll a new alt
    03. Use the alt for a day or two
    04. Repeat

    Was concerned about this when I deleted a toon that I just wasn't feeling.

    The wait period is a great idea, as long as we're not capped on total deletions.

    You start off with three. Wait a day and you'll get another one. For most people this is sufficient. There are a few players that are perfectionists and have trouble with it. Overall the system is good because it keeps the bots at bay.
