    Daily Character Creation Limit

    So I'm coming back to FFXIV after a few years to play with a friend that just got the heavensward expansion. I've been making different characters and running them through the intro scenario to see how they look in game, since I think the character creation screen looks off to me compared in game with facial expressions.

    There is a daily character limit now apparently? When does that reset? Is it 24hrs from hitting the cap, midnight server time or something else?

    They may have added this to combat RMT. Either that or you are trying to make more than 8 characters on one server. You are limited to 8 characters per server so you may need to delete a character to make another one

    I actually ran into this same problem last night as I was making new characters to try them out before using a Fantasia. I only had one character per server, but still got this message. I had never seen it before, as I have often done this to see new looks in game before using a potion.

    I haven't hit the 8 character max, that much I know ^^ I have 3 characters on the server and have been deleting the ones I make while testing appearances.

    An educated guess would be the same time as daily reset. 10AM Eastern, feel free to convert that to whatever time zone you're in.
    My suggestion would be to use the benchmark program to make characters in. You wouldn't get full access to how they look, but a decent idea. Then take the good ones from that (which can be saved and imported into the full game), and try them out there, lessening the chance of you hitting this limit again.
