I really enjoy changing my characters names around occasionally. I just don’t understand the high cost of the name change contract (10$). I would love to see it lowered. Anyone else agree?

It’s “free” if you buy the gems with in-game gold.

I’ve never used one. I have 41 characters and only one do I now think might have a better last name. For the same cost, I’m more inclined to make a new character with the desired name.

Well, it’s expensive in other MMOs too. I actually restarted my main character 2 times because I didn’t like her name, lol. But then I got crafts to 500 and finished map completion just to unlock everything on her so I had to buy a name change contract. Getting my crafts back to 500 would be expensive anyway, not to mention redoing everything. Sooo I think it’s actually worth it on a “maxed out” character.

Ever tried to legally change your name in real life? That’s painfully expensive too.

Just sayin’.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Yes, was $800 thirty years ago.

And, perhaps a better word would have been ‘exchange’ rather than ‘buy’. Probably not the best to cut quotes off mid-sentence. =P
