[Suggestion] The option to change the order of your characters

Arundo · May 2014

Not sure if this is the right forum, or that this has been asked before. I did use the search function and couldnt find any topic related to this.

Anyway, I would love to see a option to change the order of your characters in the character selection screen. I have made my first toon and leveled it to 33, then made my bank alt and later rerolled another toon which is now VR1. I would like to see that one on top of the characterlist.

Its a minor option, so no rush but I would like to see this somewhere in the future

This has my vote !

Somebody requested this here launch here, as they have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and basically wouldn't play as they didn't like the character order.

I suppose they could put in a system where you drag the character names up and down on the list. Needs to be very low on the priority list, though.

Yes I thought I was weird or something when I got annoyed by the order of my characters lol.But I'd love to see this.
What if we could collect sceneries on each map? where we can find our characters in different poses..I had to think back about one of the first mmo's I ever played ,fiesta online..That ,along kingdom quests,was the only exciting thing about that game in the end though.(at this point wouldn't recommend it anymore)
To give an idea of what I mean with the sceneries to order our character in:

Damn character creation came a long way since I might add

Although I'm not against the idea, I really cannot see the point. If you cannot keep track of your character then its time to delete some. Again, though, I'm not against it if people will use it.

Seriously??????
The game has plenty of bugs that need fixing, and you want them to spend time and effort on a neglible change to the character selection screen. Don't the names help you remember who they are?, or the race?.

Personally I would demand they don't implement this change until the game is on it's feet.

Seroczynski · May 2014

Seeings as this doesn't seem to be a very time-consuming change to implement, yes please ;-)

thjudgeman1142ub17_ESO · May 2014

Agreed would be nice to reorder... not a priority but cant see how it would be too terribly difficult to impliment.

@‌AlexDougherty

Next time try to read the whole OP before making a fool out of yourself.

If you had you would have read the below final sentence from the OP.

SERIOUSLY????? Can you read?

@Arundo this is another example of a simple user friendly tool that should have been in the game at launch.

Alphabetical.

Same. It would be a nice, handy little thing to have at some point down the road.

I'm not planning on having lots of alts, but I would like to put my current-use nightblade up above my squishy, I'll-fix-it-later templar.

On the other hand, neither does adding a General Discussion section to a forum.

Jagath · May 2014

I would also have to agree and i would love this feature as i have 8 chars that i go back and forth between. I think the major bugs should be fixed first obviously but this is a nice feature to have in future.

theyancey · May 2014

Right now it is ordered by date of character creation. I'm fine with that. I have all 8 slots filled and I am used to where each is. That being said I do not see any downside to your having the ability to move the order around. I would prefer to see the staff's attention directed to bug fixes first however before turning their eyes towards cosmetics.

Shillen · May 2014

I wouldn't mind this. My top listed character is just a mule for me now.

cjmarsh725b14_ESO · May 2014

I wanted to say this is a totally unnecessary waste of the developers time... but the *** retentive side of me firmly agrees with you.

Can we get this please, or an addon for it or something ?

Still hope this will be added at some point

darkdivideb16_ESO · April 2015

Would also like this option added, just a simple up/down arrow on the left of each name, shouldnt be too hard to do?

snackrat · April 2015

I want this. Really I do. I wanted this when I first started playing, and am surprised (even a little upset) that it still isn't there.
I have a thing about keeping chars of the same faction together.

Today I logged in and noticed I forgot to set the voice of one character, so she looked like a young woman and yet sounded like a hagraven trying to poop a rock.
To remake her would require remaking the two characters after her - not very far along either, but since they introduced the DELETE cooldown, that's gonna take three or four days.
