Actually, I both agree and disagree with you. While I would have wanted an account-bank (and I'm considering starting my own private guild for the guild bank), I don't have a problem with things being character specific. Crafting resources can be sent to alts (as far as I know, though need to check into this. It's not a big deal, though.) Stuff I craft are sent to alts. If I win a plushie in a challenge, I send it to an alt, who's a plushie-horder. Things I find as loot, like weapons, AMPs, crafting recipes etc are sent to alts. The only annoying this is we have to use the mail to send things, but then again, we do that in every other MMORPG I've tried anyway. You can't fault Wildstar for doing something everyone else does too. ;) More on topic, I'm a huge altoholic. So much that I've played nearly every day since launch (and beta, but those characters were wiped), and my highest level is 25, 26 or so. Not even sure. Then there's one at lvl 20, and four below 20. But they are also doing quite well on the Path-levels. I try to make the path-level the same as the character level, so my lvl 25-ish main is also a lvl 23-ish Settler, and the lvl 20 Stalker is a lvl 15+ Scientist. That's one thing I really enjoy. When I finally finish Algoroc or Celestion at lvl 14ish, I finish up the path-stuff in Thayd, then set off to the opposite zone. If I started in Celestion, I set off to Algoroc and finish up the path-stuff there, and vice versa. Though my favorite playstyle is to hord a bit of loot for the other classes in my bank, then send a lot of stuff to one character and switch to her. It's so much fun to have two new weapons, one or two chest armors, three AMPs and a few crafting recipes waiting in the mail when I log in. It's like my own little birthday present to myself. Then I simply stick to that alt, so I can try out all the new stuff I got. Which naturally leads to hording a lot of stuff for other characters, so I eventually send one of them some stuff and switch to her, and so on. :D

I'm playing a game called Wildstar. Not sure what you are playing. ;) The difference is 'end game' is not a goal for me. I play to have fun. I will gladly spend hours running around doing the same challenge over and over if the reward is worth it (let's just say I have a my flock of rowsdower plushies), and I spend quite a bit of time gathering materials for my crafting. Someone needs help? I'm there. Doesn't matter if I get anything for doing it. Helping out is reward enough for me. And what about achivements? I have some weird ones most end game rushers don't even know exist, as they just rush to end game for whatever reason. You need to stop and smell the roses from time to time, so to say. :) Don't know why you go on about endgame and how long it takes to get AMPs and skillpoints for alts. I don't exactly see that as a bad thing. Why would I need a full AMPset and max ability points anyway? I'm not interested in dungeons and raids, and certainly not PvP. :) And btw, my main is a Settler architect. Part because the Settler/Architect makes sense RP-wise, and part because she spends a lot of time making stuff for my house. The house is a game in its own. :)

It's amazing how polar opposite people's views can be sometimes. I think that account-wide stuff is actually unfriendly to alts. I don't get the feeling of earning that achievement, or getting that cool mount on the alt if that stuff is account wide. That's what pissed me off about WoW, and I deleted everything and started over on a new account, just to start getting stuff again.

Your point as silly to not be more rude. Of course is friendly if you wish only to run on a hoverboard around the capital ,but this is not mario kart: I give u the points that actually made it unfriendly (at least to me): 1)have u the idea of how much time consuming is the attunement process for endgame content with the main? Ok now u can multiply it for evry alt you are playing  assuming that u actually wish to play your alts... if you only want to level it u can simply level one to 50 delete it and restart. 2) reputaion grinding is a pain in the ***, assuming that you want to buy an item (u need to be at max rep for decent items and those are only for the daily zones... that you need to repeat for 45days to maximize for crimson and northern) 3) dyes are actually very rare on the main so u cannot share them either with all your alts (assuming that u want to customize the colors of all your pg to look the same) There are currently dyes that costs over 20 platinum 4)mounts are not shared and customization of those are blak hole of time and money sinks 6)Most of the object you find in istance are soulbound per char (not per account and that would be much better since the need over greed can only be done for the class you are actually playing so there would be no drama evrywhere) 7)the pvp rating is not shared among all the chars 8)the item u can get with elder gem are not tradable 9) The elder gem that you need to maximize (and be effective) are one year farming for the main... just guessing for the alts. 10)If you do an alt to improve your guild setup u must have a second life to do that This game is so unfrieldy to alts as much as have wall that prevent the main to take part in what he find fun. So if many of you are saying that is so friendly because you can mail to your alts some garbage you dont have a point... simply as that... ah and i dont compare it to other game

Sounds like we like the same stuff, but I also like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain.
