Guild Wars 2

I have all 6 character slots (have HoT) filled on my current server, but don’t want to delete any of them.

Can I start new toons on another server?

If so, how, I can’t seem to get out of my current server without transferring a toon?

All of your characters are on the same server, since your account is tied to your server, not your characters.

I’m guessing you want to play WvW on other servers, since that’s really the only thing you can’t do (you can already do any PvE/sPvP with people from any server), in which case your best bet is going to be to just make a new account and associate it with a different server.

Okay, I guess I’m not following. . .I have 6 toons on the Sea of Sorrows server ( I think that’s the name). I don’t want to delete any of them. So as it stands now, I cannot create any more toons on this realm….no more character slots.

I want one of each profession….I need a Mesmer and Elementalist. I can’t do this if I don’t have any more character slots.

So the only way I’m thinking to create these new toons is to start them on a different server?

Can I do this? If so how?

That’s not how it works in GW2. If you want more characters you have to buy the slots from the gem store. That is the only way.

No, you can’t create more characters on other servers. Your server is bound to your account, and the account only has 6 character slots; character slots are by account, not by server.

However, (now that I understand what you’re after a little better) all you need to do is get character slot expansions from the gem shop. They’re 800 gems each. You’ll be able to just swap gold for gems and buy them, up to a limit of 64 character slots (for the account).

I think the limit got raised to allow for people that were maxed and pre-bought HoT with included character slots.

But yeah, most people aren’t going to run out of room for alts if they keep buying slots as needed.

This will explain how many you can have at one time:
