Giving money to Alts (And why it's a good idea)

[Xeen]

Sounds good.  This game is way way wayyyyy too restrictive. 

[Slev23]

Alts are way too restricted. Like, why can't they access the marketplace? Is the sole reason so that you can't exchange money on an account. It just doesn't make sense...

[Mallets]

Good idea. Implementing.

If you are serious, then I'm a very happy person.

So am I!  Please oh please let it be!!!

[Mallets]

Glad to see so many voters!  Thanks for your time (whether you voted "Yes" or "No", your opinion is appreciated)!

And we are almost to our mark of 50 "Yes" votes, and it's only been up 2 days.  I personally would like to have the poll up for a week, before presenting the results to the Devs... and saying, "Please take notice, the vast majority want this implemented... please implement this as soon as possible".

So with several days left in the poll, let's shoot for over 50 votes.  I'd love to see 70 or 80 "Yes"votes.  Heck, why not 100 (though I'm not sure we have enough active forum members for such numbers).

Either way, the more "Yes" votes... the more likely the Devs will take notice... and hopefully implement this feature!

Idea is pointless. Mains are for playing, alts are for trollin, they dont need any boni, infact already they are too useful, in that you can sac them for their looms. I personally would be happy with alts removed altogether. This isnt the whole world.

Im serious? WHY do you need alts anyway? Because 1/ You want to make a troll Xbow cav. You dont deserve money, or 2/ You are not happy with your main. In which case, retire and do something else.

If you really have so much gold you dont want it, give it to me ffs, I can always use more +3, I respec about twice a gen, cause guess what? I play all the "classes", find them all fairly abusive and easy at 30, and get bored of raping shieldarchers and overconfidant spammers.

Well for starters Alts will grind for looms slower then mains, so they are not too useful, as if you did the same with your main then you would have the gold and the faster track to looms (xp gen bonus). I should also point out that I have alts mainly so I am never ever bored, and so I can actually compare classes instead of making up random things like a lot of people do when talking about other classes "Oh yes, I played a thrower/cav/twohander/etc a year and a half ago..."
It also helps to cut down on annoyance, as if a patch temporarily screws things up or for whatever reason my main is just "not working for me" then I can fire up one of my alts.

Currently alts are more of a disadvantage then an advantage (which is good), but they are hardly "too useful."

BlindGuy, why you so silly...

I have alts because it's more effective to have a level 30 guy of each class you will never retire with anyway if you want to switch classes often.

Yes, it's gonna be implemented.
No, the vote had nothing to do with it (not that we look at votes, but 50 is a laughable amount anyway).

Well that's awesome to hear!

And I never really thought that Devs were going to implement something because of a Poll.  But I just wanted a way for numerous folks to get behind this idea and make their opinion know (whether only 50, or a 100 plus).

I'm sure this is something you Devs had in ya'lls mind sometime now.  Just glad to see it's going to happen!

[Slev23]

cmp, is there any chance of letting alts become mains under very restrictive conditions?

[ArchonAlarion]

And that's why I am never butt-hurt about balance or feel the need to lobby for my play-style (besides a bit of personal integrity). I have over a dozen alts and play between 6 of them regularly (including my main).

[BlindGuy]

Meh, another thing that doesnt matter being implemented while so many problems remain unlooked at. WOOT FOR PRIORITIES!
