    Will we have the chance to change names once ARR starts?

    Sorry this question may have been a beaten horse, but I searched and couldn't find anything on it. Will we be able to change our names since we would be able to chance race/genders?

    The latest response was that they're trying and looking how to implement that. So we don't know for sure yet.

    one way would be make a mule on with your name on another server if you get to change servers after you remake your character. that way you can just transfer to a new one then be forced to change your name

    I don't think that will work. I tried doing that when we had the server merge with my mule.

    Unless there is someone with the same name who created their account before you then it isn't possible fyi.

    Greetings,

    It's still being worked on by the development team, and nothing has been confirmed yet, but here is the latest update made by Rukkirii a few weeks ago. When we have more details, we'll be sure to share them with you!

    As far as the name change goes, we are currently doing everything in our powers to make sure we are able to meet your expectation.

    Please let us know if you have any other feedback.

    Basically 2 reasons for name changes

    1) Have a bad reputation
    2) Chose something stupid but funny in the moment e.g. "Melty Strawberry" instead of a "real" name.

    Not really happy for the people who may get a chance to get out of the former, but hopefully seeing a lot less of the latter will be awesome.

    i think people deserve a fresh start come new game. and if thats the case then they would have no reason to play unless they start with a new char. so why not its not fair if you accidently dc and log back in to find u got an item that the game randomly looted to u and have to roll again for to be branded a ninja looter for an accident.

    in my opinion the game already randoms to u so it should be urs unless u dont want it or already have it then it should be rolled for.

    Thanks Bayohne for the update!

    Heh, not everyone wants to change their name for that reason. It shouldn't really matter why, with gender change name change should be implemented.
