Any way of changing the account linked to steam?
I really want to start over now that I know the basics of the game, as I feel I've messed up my characters. I don't feel like waiting for a week to delete them all, so is there any way of just changing my account to a new one?

Unfortunately once you linked an account to your steam you won't be able to change it. You can go into your steam app folder and launch Elsword from there.
There is no way? thought there is a fail on the steam folder to delete or something -.-*

Yeah it's stupid , if you start it from the folder then you don't play it through steam right ? So it's completly unnecessary anyways , you got it on steam to play it with the steam overlay and stuff... , if that is somehow still possible , let me know how.

I've added the Elsword launcher in the steam app thing as a non-steam game, so the overlay still works. You can do that if you want

Dosn't work for me , if i do "Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library".

I wasn't paying attention and made a typo when making an account, it's automatically linked a non-existent email address to my steam account. Now it's saying I need to varify this account using an imaginary email that I don't have access to.

So basically I can't play this game through my steam now?
Why would it link emails to an account before they are varified? :/

Add non steam game and put "elsword" from your steam file and you might be able to play through steam

ok this is how i fixed this: click on start (windows) and go to computer go to C:/->program files-> steam->steam apps-> common->elsword-> and elsword not ESSTEAM drag it to desktop then go to library add a game browse desktop then just double click on elsword (pic of ShK) and your done hope it helps (this is how i did it but you can just browse directly into the elsword folder)

I accidentally typed in my email wrong, but did not realize it until the verification email was sent. The email I typed in actually belonged to someone, but the steam account is linked to that one and I can't get in. Any way I can fix this? I already tried to delete and re download the game.

You just have to delete the other account. log in to the elsword website if you can't access the one that is on steam creat a new one just so you can create a ticket to recover the older one (the one that is on steam). Once you recover the older one (the one that is on steam), create a ticket to delete it and them as no longer exist it won't be linked to steam, letting link a new one. just remeber to change the e-mail before you delete it because that e-mail will be blocked for ever to be used again. So, use a temporary e-mail just to free the original one (if you planing on using the same one), then delete the account and you good to go.
