Two requests: Increase in character slots and a change to the daily system

noblecron · February 27

I have 2 requests. I know the devs have a million other things they have to do but it doesn't hurt to request it.

The first is more character slots: I'm one that loves making alts. It's fun. The customization in this game is amazing. I think I'd be satisfied with another 10 character slots at least giving 30 characters total. I think a lot of people would love that

Second request: A change in how dailies work. The daily system is fine and all but I would love it if it could all be done as an account wide thing and not a per character. It'd save on player time. As of now it takes 2 hours give or take to do writs across 20 characters. As a way to make up for it. The rewards you get for that daily is about what you would get across 20 characters.

Example: Current system

writs across 20 characters is about 100k give or take

With the change: Writs with one character would give about 100k, give or take without needed to log into every character

More character slots would be nice. As for the dailies, different characters can have different passives, different research, and different motifs known, which affects both what needs to be crafted and the rewards.

more characters would be very nice

If I understand your second request, you basically want one specific character doing writs on behalf of your 20 writ-certified characters. The current setup rewards you fully for doing them manually on all 20 characters; imo, your suggestion should only work if a penalty is tied in.

Basically, if I go your route and have one character do writs on behalf of the rest, then yes, I save time, but I should forgo receiving full rewards.
Maybe I get, say, 60% of the rewards received by a player doing writs manually on all 20 of their characters.
So, for 20 certified characters, I would only get rewards for 12 of them (60%).
Or using your numbers I would receive 60k instead of the full 100k.

Completing optional content across 20 characters taking up too much of a player's gameplay time is a self inflicted issue. Want the rewards? Ya gotta do the work.

Absolutely, otherwise this logic could be applied to anything. Can I do one pledge or random normal and get 20 characters' worth of rewards? It's a mmo, I don't mind QoL changes that save time, but at some level folks gotta do the things to get the shineys.

I'm always up for more character slots, especially now with scribing and subclassing possibilities, but really always. I have so many ideas, and the outfit slot system is no substitute. I've considered getting a second account, but I wouldn't have access to my collectibles on it, so that won't work. More slots is the answer.

Requesting 10 more character slots, then indicating that doing 20 dailies across those characters takes too much time....

I just can't...

How about we just not do either and call it good?

The gold isn't even the reason I do writs on all my characters, its mostly for the master writs but also the mats.

If the non-gold rewards from 20 characters was rolled into 1 that would be a literally insane reward for something that takes under 2 minutes. The gold on it's own would already be crazy

There is something like this that could be done, and uses already-existing systems. There are dailies that give their biggest reward once per account per day, so the best benefit is gained by doing them once per day, and doing them on other characters has some benefit but not enough to feel a sense of obligation or missing out.

The rewards for writs are already the highest in the game tho. I only have 1 character on PC and writs on just that have so far singlehandedly funded my gameplay

100%. I do dailies on 10 characters of varying levels of research (4 fully researched, the other 6 ranging from working on 9th traits down to haven't started researching yet), and my income is just disgusting absurd. I couldn't imagine what a player utilizing all 20 character slots could do with all their income.

Getting the crafting writs based on how many alts I have leveled in that would be a great Quality of Life change! I do it because of the gold (and the time I put in during the past) but being able to not have to churn through all my characters before doing anything else would be wonderful!
