User:C-Hound/Characters



Not that anyone else will much care, but...

I currently have 8 accounts, all Premium, with something under 4 dozen alts, mostly mules, static ("at level") openers, or favor runners of some sort. 5 of the accounts showed up to populate my own Guild ship, and the other alts when "alts" were a thing, and concentrating on one and only one main was not so central to the game. Currently, I'm in the middle, with 2-3 "mains" and a handful more openers that I'm limping along when I feel inspired to go there.

=Accounts=
 * Main (max 9 characters)
 * "free-to-play" (max 8 characters) (legacy off main account, before that went Premium - this used to happen regularly when F2P upgraded.)
 * Both of these got their extra character slots from MotU & SC.


 * & x6 default accounts (max 5 characters each) to populate a private Guild Airship, currently Level 42. Also use those DP to buy dupe Adventure Packs to have openers for 2 "main" accounts. Went Premium when the Catacombs Starter Pack was on Sale for -75%, so dropped $2.50 each for that + 2 char slots + all the Premium perqs, sold. Still less than any good game costs off the shelves.

Altho' not intentional, each size-5 account seems to have...
 * 1 "real" character (to chase Total Favor)
 * 1 dedicated slot for a disposable favor runner (to earn DP when/as I need it)
 * 1(+) opener for quest packs which that account has purchased
 * 1(+) permanent mule (some quite specialized - potions, scrolls, specific gear, etc.).

The two "real" accounts (size 9 & 8) each have room for additional "real" characters, a crafter, and any specialized builds that speak to me, as well as multiple mules.

I keep a slot open for favor runners on my home server to grab loot both for crafting blanks and for melting for crafting, and to occasionally populate the AH with cheap lowbie items (good for the community imo). Favor running while grabbing loot is MUCH slower (than zerging for pure Favor), but the overall benefit works for me in terms of the occasional slotted item, featherfall ring, additional essences and lowbie collectables, etc. etc.

Main
This is the account I spend the real time (and some money) on. Atm, it has most everything I need. (9 slots)
 * Svardi - "Main" - Lvl 30 Drow "Trapeatadin" - Pali 14/Rog 5/Arti 1. Spun off the BaGtaKF build, minus A.ssassin tree plus KotC for more durability/soloability. More Pali less rogue.
 * First Life, 1st alt to get to 20 Currently farming everything this account needs, and generally figuring out the Epic game.


 * Schazzam - human Warlock 30, farmer/opener/etc. Damn but they's easy to run.


 * Schifdy - Started as a short-term-build mule that took on a life of his own. Currently plan to TR into and park as | Monk Challenge Runner.
 * Peatre Gunn - Non-Arti repeater project
 * Suerta Lamula - crafter/haggler/DM Finding (pre-U-19 build), Bard 10, currently on hold. Had originally wanted a crafter/mule/hagglebot (when that was a thing), but with new Crafting system that plan is changing...
 * Buqqa - Level 8 dwarf multi, failed pre-U-19 build, currently on indefinite hold
 * Runxanne - permanent Level 4 mule and challenge runner for Anni event. Max reward solo on a first life, np.
 * Iconic mule (easy 160 items, plus quick 300 DP) - variation on this build
 * several slots w/ (more or less) temporary alts

free
This is, technically, my "first" account, but when I went Premium this never got dissolved into the other, and now they are now both off the same log-in User Name, just diff options. So this one was still a true "F2P" after the above went Premium. (This was a not-uncommon glitch "back in the day".)
 * Svarchi - Lvl 16 Elven Deepwoods Trapmonkey. Fun build.
 * (more tbd)

0
The rest of these were built as mule accounts, and/or to help with my private Guild ship.
 * Jiyexbi - an experiment in F2P (non-Harper) Great X-Bow build
