The 50 character limit

It has been the same in 16 years, but, what haven’t been the same is the amount of character combination possibilities and the leveling speed.

In 2004 we had 8 races to play, today we have 23, quite the improvement, but the character limit haven’t seen any increase.

In 2004 we had 9 classes to chose from, today we have 12, another expansion in character possibilities, but how many characters you can create is still capped at 50.

The leveling speed is times faster than it was in 2004, meaning you can create and level characters much faster, unfortunately you gotta be careful not to pass that same old limit.

Even character customization have seen an improvement, if you wanna try out the new looks on new chars be careful you don’t hit that old wall.

Please consider raising the cap, i’m sure Blizzard have the technology to store allocate more characters per account without issues. Some people may say that “there’s no way you will use and play more than 50 characters” and i used to agree with that idea, but nowadays, after having to switch to different realm a couple of months ago, i had to level characters from all classes on that realm again in order to have a vast pool of classes to choose from to play in SL, and if i ever switch realm again, i will be dangerously close to that limit.

Creating a profession team on a high pop realm was what took me to the limit. I’m just finishing leveling them, and will use them as mains during shadowlands. I really wish Blizzard would increase this limit. I wanted to have at least one character of every race, but I’m still missing a mechagnome, because of no space.

Hopefully Blizzard will revise their decision of not increasing the character limit if they ever introduce another race or class into the game.

They could’ve done it very much, seeing how they touched on customization after 16 years give me some hope they touch the character cap in the future, because it’s one of these ancient things which still exist in the game that had many opportunities in the past to be revised and modified but never were.
