Main character?

[Syrin]

From what I am reading here, it sounds like really you can only max one character with the other alts feeding it past 1340. Is that true? I really like the first class I am playing currently at 396, but I want to play the other classes before deciding upon a "main". Is it too late? When do you decide what your main is or is it by default the first one you played? When you are at login, can you change the listed main?

Thanks

I guess your highest level character is shown as your main. Just do your thing, until lvl 1302 there is no wrong main, since once you find a class you like a lot more the old one can act as a helper.

no I have 3 chars over 1400+ and 2 alts 1385, you can enjoy multiple classes. The key is to run chaos dungeon and leapstone una dailys on our alts all the time to keep them from falling behind. (10 min per alt, 8 mins for 2 chaos, 2 mins for 3 una dailies. Take days off if busy IRL and stack rested)

You will have 1 main character a little bit higher than the rest, but he or she is more like the head of the family, you push this 1 character to unlock honing research for the rest of your alts to make honing easier.

For instance when you hit T2 you get research to make all your alts in T1 honing easier. So the moment your main hits 600 and gets 802 gear from T2 you do the research in the stronghold, and you push your alts into tier 2 too a little bit behind main.

Same in Tier 3, you unlock research at 1385 to make honing 1302-1370 easier, so I pushed alts from 1325 to 1370 the moment my main hits 1385 benchmark.

Your alts will always be 1 step behind your main but not by much if you do careful planning. Just be aware, you need ALOT of game knowledge and know what to do to pull this off. Can't do it as a newbie who goes into the game blind.
