I really hope they thought about it too and will allow us to buy new slots before the event. Otherwise, I'll just use one of those temporary accounts they will hand away(assuming they do like they did for the faction preview event), but I would much rather use my real account.

<--5 pve, 1 pvp.

I like having the versatility of a deletable, rerollable slot for pvp or pve. Sometimes i feel like going to presear and picking flowers, so i use that slot. Try that with a default PvP slot?

Why can't you reserve a PvP slot for yourself if you want one? I don't see why Anet should dictate what we use our slots for, and I don't see why you need someone to force you to keep a slot open.

And as said as well, during the preview events you get a free temporary slot for testing. Don't worry, they did it with Factions, they'll do it again. Anet knows that you aren't willing to give up your level 20 character with obsidian armor just to test a new profession for 1 weekend.

So go buy a slot.

Sigh... I a bit surprised that more people are not on board for this. I like pve more then pvp. (which means I want to have all the prof's slots possible) Tho there is times I do like to pvp but im limited to what I can do to help the team out... I have just about every skill unlocked from baltz faction but ... sigh... I cant use them

If we had a default pvp slot (and thats all that could go there) Life would be grand.

yar we shouldent have to pay for a slot that should part of the game....

Heightened state of mind.

P/W

So basicly you need someone to limit one slot to PvP only since your not restrained enough to save one instead of using it for what you really enjoy, PvE.

So you need more slots, then ask Anet to speed up on the delivery of purchased slots so you can buy one.

If I remeber they gave a free key to create a new account for factions. (Not tied to your current). They also did not give a free slot for the factions PvE events. So either you created a new secondary account not linked to your primare or you had to delete a slot.

^ Um dude your getting more slots per game, buying slots is your cost alone and more money towards A.net, BE GLAD A.net is even giving us this option, or you would just whine more.

no for the simple fact it would be an unusable slot for a large number of people and Anet/NCSoft would have to carry the overhead on the unused slots.

you are that desperate for a pvp slot? delete a pve and have at it

Eh...if u unlocked almost every skill with balth faction and u like pve but also wanna pvp more than u do...its kinda ur own fault u didnt set aside a slot for it. It may be part of the game but there is nothing that guarentees(spelling too late for this) u that u can pvp. Im sure there are alot of ppl that dont pvp and have never set foot in an arena. Delete sumthing if u want a slot or buy em wen they come out...i had to delete a char cuz i couldnt stand to only have limited options when it come to pvp.

I deleted my Ele 2 weeks before Factions came out. I PvPed a lot, got my Rank 3, was satisfied. I would just wish that the new slots will come out sooner. ANet said summer and it's already 1/2way through summer. They haven't even set a date for it >.>

thus this is why we need a pvp default spot.

Im sure alot of people dont pvp bc they dont have the slot to even try

Whats the big negative here???

Its just an idea that would really help the game out.

So many nay sayers....

You already have a PVP slot, it's not their fault that you can't restrain yourself from locking yourself in. It's not like you don't know what you're getting yourself into when you make 6 pve characters.

The big negative: Giving everyone an extra character slot even though they didn't pay money for it and aren't able to limit themselves to only 5 pve characters. Seriously I can't even comprehend what pushes some people to make a second pve character much less 6 with the knowledge that if you do make that 6th one that you won't be able to PVP. Jesus Christ.

Look at it this way: Anet is not about to increase their server load for free, you'll get the same amount of space unless you're willing to pay. Knowing this, Anet is not going to give you more than 6 slots unless you pony up some cash. A default PvP slot means you would have five (5) usable PvE slots and a default PvP slot. If that happened, we'd have people pissing and moaning that they hate PvP and wish they could do whatever they wanted with that last slot. As it is now, you have a choice whether or not you want a PvP slot. If you don't, that's great, enjoy PvE and all that it entails. If you do, wonderful, you can easily keep a slot open for it. Personally, I prefer making my own choices rather than having them made for me, but that's just me.

You should already have a default PvP slot from the start, how you keep it is restraint. No where does it say that you need to fill up your account with PvE characters, and it isn't Anets fault that you don't have room for this extra character.

Like I said in another thread with this problem, just like the last preview event for factions, you should have known that there would be a PvP testing event and should have forsaw it and kept a spot open.

That's your own fault. Why didn't you just make 5 characters to cover all 10 professions in primary or secondary form and save a PvP slot? Stop whining and either a) get one of those PvE characters PvP ready (perfect weapon/mods, 1.5k armor, etc) or just delete one.

As many have already said, you had 4 pvp slots when you first bought the game, you just filled em up with pve characters instead.

Couple of reasons I'm against this, the use of we in the title attempts to make it sound like you're talking for the community, clearly you're not. Secondly why should Anet give you something for free when they can just sell you an extra character slot a month or two down the line?

It's as simple as this. If you want a slot for PvP, reserve yourself a slot for PvP. We've all been down the "A.Net please can we have more char slots" road and it's a solid NO from A.Net.

Basically what you're asking for is an extra character slot. I already have a dedicated PvP slot. I made it myself. Just think about it this way:

You have 5 character slots and 1 dedicated PvP slot (assuming you own both games)
or
You have 3 character slots and 1 dedicated PvP slot (if you only have one of the chapters)
If you do not want a dedicated PvP slot, you may use it for an extra PvE character.

Would we all like an extra slot? Sure. Why not? The thing is we all know it's not just going to be given to us for free. That has been well established over and over again.
