I am asking as I have so many ideas for a new character and I am already on max.

    We currently do not have any plans for additional character slots. However, we'll pass this on to our teams.

    Sobbing. Pleaaaaseeeeee? I love rolling new characters. Since subclassing was introduced, I have another five characters I want to roll with subclassing concepts, but I don't have the slots for it. ESO's limit is so low compared to other MMOs on the market!
    I care what you think.

    To be fair, the cap should've turned 21 slots after Necrom update. After necro released we had 18 (6 classes, 3 chars per class, 1 dd, 1 heal, 1 tank), after arcanist released, we got just 2 iirc.

    Atm I have a mule char as the 20th, I'm just waiting for whether I need a nb or plar tank as a base.
    This text used to say "Main: Dragonknight Tank". Way before subclassing, my raid leaders made sure I had many identity crises on both roles and classes. I tonked. Or dodoed. Or healed. Updating accordingly.

    Main: Stuff-doer on a wizardry game. Still enjoying it. DK tank? Retired.

    A sale on character slots would also be nice, been awhile.

    Until the point at which we get another character slot, may I suggest utilizing the Armory and Outfitting systems we already have? Like others, I have 20 characters. However, with the armory, I have so many more options for exploring builds, subclassing, etc.

    Alternatively, making characters on the other megaserver (EU or NA) affords a lot of exploration and replay-ability.

    I'm definitely one of those who's in the market for a new Class more than anything else.

    I currently only have one character per Class, but I have two or three ideas for as soon as we get more Classes to pop. I know we're not getting anything until the refreshes are done at the end of next year, but at that point it will have been 5 years since Arcanist, and we've averaged a new Class every 3 so far, so we are due.

    I'd expect a new Class would bring a handful more slots with it, bit I'll admit that I'm only in it for the Class.

    A Class Change Token would mitigate some of the need for character slots.

    Please give us Werewolf Skill Styles (for customizing our fur color) Added in Update 50!, Grimoires/Scribing skills (to fill in the holes in our builds), and Companions (to transform with).

    That's not working for me and many other players. Armory is for builds. Not for characters.

    For me like for many other players having a CHARACTER is an essential part of the fun. I like to have characters with their individual background stories their individual appearances (unmutable ones like sex, size, hair color, face, scars ...).

    Doubling what Anduin said -- for roleplayers, armoury and outfitting doesn't work. But for this part, I'd actually try, except for the fact crown store purchases are inexplicably only available on one megaserver.

    If crown store purchases were available on both megaservers, I'd actually bother with this.
    I care what you think.

    Also, desperately need more character slots. I would love at least 5 more right now before we get additional classes but I would very much like to see more. Other games give way more character slots and this is probably in my top five list of most wanted things to see.

    Your biggest competitor (WoW) allows up to either 65 or 70 characters per account, unless they've raised it again. Please give us more slots! My characters are just that, CHARACTERS, individual appearances and personalities. Even if the game were like FF14 and we could swap classes as easily as picking a new Armory build, I wouldn't want to do that.

    I also would like more character slots. I've ran out of slots on my main account ages ago.
    It's to the point where I use a combination of armory slots and quick fashion to 'fake' an alternate toon, but it's just not the same.

    As for other accounts, I have an alt account, and have CP levels for both accounts on both NA and EU servers.
    It's just not the same though. You don't have access to all of your achieves and collectibles which matters a lot in terms of character design, and access to homes, emotes, mounts, pets, etc.

    please just 1 slot. Just 1. Khajiit desperately needs another Khajiit to be his Arcanist tank. 19 khajiit (and one argonian with fluffy delusions) is just 1 shy of 3 of each profession.

    My altoholism got bad enough I actually DID make new toons on EU. Yes, I've been having to buy the same cosmetics over again. :/ This, too, is something WoW doesn't separate between servers. I'm not sure why ESO does.
