Altaholics prepare.

Nice! I was going to delete at least one of my mules thanks to the crafting bags, though, but this would let me try some more weird builds.

Oh yeah, also coming around the same time is a bag of infinite space for crafting supplies that will be available for subscribers.

More character slots at the same time as VR removal...

I think I'm in trouble here guys.

Wait, is this an actual thing, or are we getting trolled? I'm sorry I have to ask that.

I literally cannot express how happy that makes me.

*gasp*

I wasn't able to watch ESO Live (and still can't) - do we have any more details?

Not much else, just that they are coming with DB. Didn't hear anything about cost or a new character limit.

Sure @UrQuan . Crafting bags will be exclusive to ESO+ members and will hold an infinite amount of crafting materials. These will come out with Dark Brotherhood in Q2.

Extra characters slots are currently scheduled for Q2 as well, but Matt DID make it obvious that's what they are shooting for - but it's not 100% yet. (AKA - they are trying to get it done for Q2, but obviously it's not far enough along to guarantee they will will available with Q2 major update)

Gasp!

Something new in the crown store?

Well, that is a reason to keep my sub going, even if I go inactive again, this year.

Nestor · January 2016

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully they mean April 1rst on the Character Slots. I keep looking at one of my Mules for deletion. He is starting to get a little worried.

starkerealm · January 2016

I was just thinking, I don't have a Dark Elf, or an extra DK or Templar last night...

@Nestor When they were referring to "Q1" and "Q2" it was more so aligned with "will come in Dark Brotherhood" which is due out sometime in Q2. I wouldn't hold my breath on April 1 release date.

Oreyn_Bearclaw · January 2016

I swore that once I hit a V16 of each class, I would be done with leveling alts. I have 3 max bag space low level alts, one for each alliance that I would hate to delete. I also have a V1 sorc in AD, that could be useful when VR is dropped. But, Daddy might need a stam sorc or magic NB if I get another character slot. Hmmm.....

I want a Tank and Healer for each faction.. and would LIKE a DPS in each faction...

and then there's the part when I want a stam and magicka version....

0.0 Of course. I won't level all those in any realistic timeline. Although being able to make the character and name it would be nice (Since, you know, every day less awesome names are available)

Eh? I'm an ultra-casual slacker and have 5 VR16s (that includes all Cadwells content except group dungeons and all Cyrodiil PvE except for an odd skyhard here or there behind enemy temple gates). Would have six if my computer hadn't been in the repair shop for a month and half last year. No excuses!

I just take an NPC's first name off the list (from the previous games, and ESO) and slap it on an existing family name, again, from the previous games and ESO. Haven't failed to create a name I wanted yet.

@UrQuan New chance for your "Rat" character

More vital to me is that it takes 6 months of day in day out feeding your horse riding skill.

dodgehopper_ESO · January 2016

I can't wait to make alts for the races I missed as well as to round out my roster a little better. I think that's the most exciting thing about this.

Oh YEAH! That was actually the FIRST thought I had, but apparently I didn't type it. Yes, I've been remaking mules to characters I actually want to play so I can get their horse and bags maxxed before I actually play them lol. Of course, with infinite crafting bags.. bag space won't be such an issue now

No but if you pvp the stamina and speed will still be pretty important, not to mention it'll give me opportunity to unload fat stacks of drinks/food on mules. This is giving me fun ideas.

On second thought this probably wouldn't last. Even so, it would give me a chance to spread it out for a little while. I like having stockpiles of potions/soulgems because I burn through them so fast when PVPing.

How many slots are we talking about?

What kind of danger am I in here? :-P

BabeestorGor · January 2016

Damn, I've been a cheapskate so far but it looks like they are determined to part me from my money.

I've been asking for this for almost two years now. So...

I'm assuming it's the ability to buy more slots with crowns. The real question is, what's the price point? At $5 a slot, I'm in real danger of going overboard. At $20 a slot, I might buy a couple, but I'd, ironically, probably spend less total. If it's in bundles of 4 for $10 I'm going to need to find a part time job in addition to my workload to pay the alt addiction.
