One can even allow other people to pay the upkeep cost for you if they want to. (Useful if know you will be away for a long time, but have friends in-game that you trust.)
Yeah, sorry about that slight inaccuracy, I remember reading there was a cap at over 200+ "wards", but didn't think it was that relevant. Also, thank you for the additional information. A pity that it seems like people would rather shove their head in the sand than admit that a free game could more effectively do what a subscription and cash shop game can not.
