Legacy Question

[Cjkero]

I don't know if this has been asked and answered.. I searched around a bit and couldn't find much.

I paid for the subscription in 1.0 enough to get Legacy status, but my PC didn't run it well so I just stopped trying.. Now with the PS3 coming out, I am really enjoying the Beta.. If I delete my 1.0 Character at launch and restart, will I still be considered Legacy? Or should I just create a new character and let that one sit?

Keep it, iirc legacy characters get 8 characters per server without additional fees. (i really hope that's still true)

As far as I know this is the case. There really won't be any need to delete characters.

I don't understand why you want to delete this character, from what i can tell, your only Lv 2 and by the time you do the tutorial quests in ARR, you'll be lv2 anyway. As stated above, characters that were created in 1.0 will have a special mark on their body(behind the neck) and will experience certain events of the story differently then characters created after 1.0. While legacy benefits like 9.99 is tied to the account, things like story bonus or character marking is tied to the character(i think).

If its the appearance or name your dissatisfied with, then you can recreate your old character once during launch, change anything from race to the name but still keep the legacy features.

Thanks for all of the replies! My main thing was that I wanted to change race and such.. I did not realize that I could do that once during launch! Thanks for the info!
