Title: Number of character and storage of unused character
Post by: Hellblazer on January 08, 2009, 03:46:03 PM: I think I saw somewhere the maximum amount of character one player can have, independent of how many bioware account that person has, is six character. is this right?

If so, is there a way for the team to make a backup of a char but not delete it. That way if in the future someone would want to start playing that character again he could, and in this way freeying up a slot in the 6 char per player?

The sum of active and inactive characters per account is not allowed to be higher than six.
So you can't have 11 inactive ones and 1 you play. If you want to submit a 7th character, you will have to get one deleted.

No.

Exported characters can be edited. The potential for cheating is too great.

You're free to export them, we just won't put them back on the server at some later time.
