Questions about main character swap

[Diavolo]

Hi, I have recently return to the fantastic game of M&B after some time away. I quickly figured out that I wanted to play differently than before and made a different character to play on. So, now I'm really loving the new char, name and everything. Therefore I wanna make the new character my main. However, I seem to remember something from last time I played cRPG for a while, that to swap main one has to delete the old main? Fair enough, that's not so bad since I won't be playing on it anyway. But I seem to remember something about any characters existing at the same time as the current main, can never become the main character. Is this correct?

tl:dr: to change main character, do I have to delete my current main and make a new character completely from scratch? or can I make one of my current alts into my main once I delete the current main?

You need to delete your old main and make a new one from scratch.

Correct. It's really just best to retire, do a full name change (1h time slot after you retire) and then start again on the build you wanted with your main.

You can also just respec  and apply for namechange if you want, but then the new name has to be similar to the one you want to change to.

Ok, since the one who was my main was only lvl 22 and I didn't wanna play that character all the way to lvl 31, I just deleted all my chars. It's always fun to level up a low level char

thanks for your help btw.
