OH YEAH, if this were to be implemented into the game, just think of LLJK.. they will all make arbalest sniper alts and play together on battle/siege at the same time, volleying on peasants. or perhaps they will all create a huscarl shield alts or maybe heavy cav alts, think about it. 6-10 heavy cav, or snipers, or shielders. itll become stacked and unfair and not fun for the other team. idk, i suck at putting my thoughts into words so.. yeah goodluck understanding what i mean.
No.
They can already do this, but don't. You would still have to level alts normally to even use the equipment, and you'd still need to level to generate.
1. Think about it... the gold transfer is one-way, right? So, the more you transfer, the more you will eventually have to play on you main char to regain the transferred gold. You could only farm your main as long as the main has gold, thus limiting the usefulness of transferring.
2. There are only so many general "classes". If a player uses a particular char with a particular class to gain an advantage, he doesn't need redundant builds, so the number of alts has an efficient limit.
3. The state of the game's equipment is such that more expensive gear is often not even useful, or far more costly than it is useful.
4. The Rite of Consumption deletes the alt, meaning that you might as well have gen'd your main instead. I don't see how the Rite would be abused with one-way gold transfer.
One-way gold transfer is a step towards the creation of an internal structure within the player account itself. Some players would have powerful mains and few, poor alts (mostly for consumption), and others would have more equitable systems. The type of structure would be heavily gaming-hours influenced too. The point is that it could make your current jumble of chars much more interesting.
