2 Characters on the same Server ?

[Kurosawa0]

So I checked today to find info on making a second character with the same account, but only found a lot of old and/or contradicting info.
Checking ingame I can create a second character, but only on a different server. Also, when I leave Character creation on said different server, then it shows 2 character slots with one greyed out. Tooltip says I can unlock this slot with an item in the game, but there seems to be none.
Also, on the server I am playing on with my one Character there is not even any second character slot visible.


So yeah, I am confused. What is possible ? I am not interested in purchasing a second account / gamecopy, I'd simply like a second character to mess around with other 'classes' and races, maybe use it for other proficiencies or such.
Can I only do so on a different server ? Can they be on the same server ? Same / opposing faction ?

The in-game character expansion scrolls are temporarily disabled. Something to do with not overcrowding the new Fresh Start server, I think.

I'm not sure about 2 toons on the same server. Never tried it, but I can tell you if you use 1 account to play 2 toons on two different servers, the main labor pool is shared between them (labor from potions is not shared).

Thanks for the info.
If anyone knows more regarding toons on the same server, would be nice to know.

you can only have one character on the fresh start server, both my characters are on the same server and on different factions. you can send ingame mail between the despite being on different factions though.

So it'll be a few months until it's possible to create a toon and then on the other factionside only ? Otherwise would have to be another account then I guess. So I might as well create that character on a different server for messing around then.

Thanks for the reply :)

Hey Kurosawa!
As for right now, all servers (with the exception of the Fresh Start) have a limit of two characters per server.
Accounts start with the limit of two characters per account and can be expanded to 3 with the use of a Character Slot Expansion Scroll through a Diligence Coins. However, the 3rd character would have to be on a different server due to the 2 characters per server limit.

This scroll currently is no longer available but may come back in the future to the Diligence Coin Store!

All the Best,

Thanks for the confirmation.

Any info on when a second character can be created on the Fresh Start Server ?
And will it really be other faction only with the same account ?
