VIP

VIP Subscribers are accounts that pay the monthly fee, they were introduced on the US Servers as from Module 9 to differentiate from Premium Free To Play and Free To Play accounts. They were formerly known as regular DDO Subscribers.

As of May 2011, a VIP subscription costs $9.99 per month, and less for multi-month plans.

VIPs get the following benefits:


 * 500 free Turbine Points a month. May purchase more or earn through Favor.
 * 10 character slots per server (may purchase more)
 * Access to the Monk Class. Must purchase Artificer (account-wide) (or unlock through Favor (per server) after Update 12). Must purchase Favored Soul (account-wide) or unlock through Favor (per server).
 * Access to the Warforged, Half-Elf and Half-Orc races. Must purchase Drow (account-wide) or unlock through Favor (per server).
 * Access to all Adventure Packs.
 * Enter quests directly on Hard/Elite without having to run prior difficulties
 * Ability to create guilds for free.
 * Shared Bank Vault for free (20 slots)
 * Login Queue: Priority (This isn't a real benefit, the game has not yet implemented any log in queue tech, you simply get an error if the server is full regardless of your account type)
 * Chat: Unlimited (Same as premium)
 * Auctions: officially Unlimited, actually limited to 50 items up for sale (Same as premium)
 * Mail: Nearly Unlimited (Not really, you get the same amount as premium account, which is exactly 50 maximum mails at a time)

 * Customer Service: Full (Same as premium who recently spent money on DDO store points)
 * DDO Compendium: Read/Post (Same as premium)
 * Official Forums: Read/Post (Same as premium)
 * Beta Priority: High (Mostly refers to fact they are sometimes slow when it comes to putting content packs on the Lamannia test server's version of the DDO Store)
 * Idle Auto-logout: Increases to 60 minutes
