    Default If you delete a character, can you reuse the name?

    With only two slots in the free part of the game, it seems a free player might want to try low level builds over again. Can I just delete and remake?

    ((I realize you can just pay for this sort of thing with plat, but I am still very low level and learning and don't want buy plat until I get the hang of the game.))

    Yes. You can reuse a name as long as it's not actively used.

    am i correct in thinking that if a character is never deleted the name is "locked" forever?

    Clear indication of using the search function or immense shovel work (Jay reference)

    AFAIK, yes, once a character is made and never deleted, the name is locked with it. I don't think there's an auto-delete feature where a character gets deleted after a certain amount of inactive time.

    That would suck to have character wipes, but I have seen it occur in several games, where they wipe the names of characters who have not been active for a year.
