Guild Wars 2

After leveling so many characters, I’d like a level lock or experience lock to keep my other alt characters at certain levels. Even just a food or utility that puts a debuff that doesn’t allow a character to receive experience.

Mostly, an XP lock is for cost savings and preferred loot selection. Since particular loot in game is locked to specific character levels. With our aging character population, the available volume of lower level materials will begin to dwindle.

Also, this request is simply because gearing lower level characters is much cheaper. Trying new builds and designs are easier on low level alts.

… just a thought!

Probably, the answer to ‘Level-lock’ is ‘Character-slot’. I don’t think locking a level will ever happen, but some other solution to diminishing mid-level mats might be instituted.

there really is no need. the reason there is no mid level mats is because no one is killing the mobs that drop them. If you want to make money seriously just go to mid level areas and kill everything. you can get a decent chunk of them in a half hour. they still drop for lvl 80s

I get the feeling this is mostly about silver doubloons, which are most easily obtained by opening chests with level appropriate characters. The wiki says you can get them as a small chance from bags, but it doesn’t seem like it’s very much of a chance at all.

^Ding..Ding..Ding.. hahaha…. yes, I have several 21’s for Silver Doubloon hunting. Even at the pace I’m going it’ll take til late summer before I have enough for Juggernaut. These especially are the ones I’d like to lock into there levels. They were camped at each LA JP and I’d portal people everyday. Now that LA is gone I’ve been moving them around and they are gaining XP which doesn’t make me very happy to see. Not only the 21’s though, my lvl 55’s for mid level mats like linen etc.

Taking an 80 around zones still cost more to way point than a lower level. An 80 cost a lot of gold comparatively to gear and repair. Also, 80’s will get higher level loot as well. Thus diluting the opportunity to receive the correct level loot I’m seeking. At this point, I have a couple of disposable characters that gain too much XP and get rerolled. I’d just rather not do that, again and again and again and again.

For the character slot reply, I do understand that as I have 17 characters already. It’s getting out of hand!
