How many characters do you have?

sovereign010sovereign010 Member Posts: 641 Arc User
Something I've been wondering since I created my newest one for AoY, how many characters do you currently have? Whether they're active (used whenever you play to farm dil), or only once in a while?

For the record I have ten, all of which are refining the max amount of dil per day. And despite the exchange rate being lower than it has in years, it's still slow going when it comes to accruing Zen :D

EDIT: For those with 15 please choose the 10-15 option, due to a typo the one below should have read 16-20...

    I just made my fifth character this week. I know have:

    Saurian Male Engineer (my main)
    Romulan Male Tactical
    Hirogen Male Tactical (well, "Alien")
    Gorn Male Science
    Joined Trill Female Science

    My Trill lass has, sadly not been used in a very, very long time. I originally made her to take advantage of having a Joined Trill and the TOS uniforms, and I love her and fee crew, but I've only got so much free time. My Gorn has also been loveless, as I seek to level him up using Gorn ships bought during sales.

    Right now, I have 31 characters. It used to be 43, but as the game changed as well as my play-style preferences, some of my characters became redundant or obsolete and were eventually deleted. 43 characters simply became too many for me to manage.

    All of my characters get to see some action during the course of a week. Yes, I do have a small number that I would consider as "Main" characters, and tend to relegate the rest of my characters to farming for fleet projects. I do, however, take these same "farm" toons out for a spin every once in a while, especially if something is added to the game, or changed, that they can benefit from. Regardless, all my characters have max rep (until Season 12 hits).

    Wow I can't even imagine having 50 characters. That's some crazy devotion right there. I have six characters and I only really keep up with two.

    Used to have twice this many. However, the game began to become too much like work. I don't really have a main char. I just play them all whenever I feel like it.

    That's pretty much the same as me, just on a lesser scale. I used to be able to keep up with 4 characters and keep them pretty up to date. Now I focus on my fed engineer almost exclusively. I try to keep up with my fed science character (my first toon), though he doesn't have all the latest sciencey stuff. :(

    I've got 7, hoping for some KDF love from Cryptic to create my 8th and final 'toon, so I can have balance between factions. Something like AoY or LoR for the Klingons would be the ultimate for me. And all 7 are alt's I play pretty much equally, lvl 60+, listed in my sig below... :p
    Expendables Fleet: Andrew - Bajoran Fed Engineer Ken'taura - Rom/Fed Scientist Gwyllim - Human Fed Delta Tac
    Savik - Vulcan Fed Temporal Sci
    Dahar Masters Fleet: Alphal'Fa - Alien KDF Engineer Qun'pau - Rom/KDF Engineer D'nesh - Orion KDF Scientist Ghen'khan - Liberated KDF Tac

    Interesting poll for a change :)

    After close to 5 years of STO I ended up with 10 characters. All of them are actively used on a regular basis for team PvE and have a similar level of progression. Like you OP I refine 8k Dil/Day/toon.

    - 6 are 25c FED
    - 1 is KDF
    - 2 are Romulan (1 FED & 1 KDF)
    - 1 is 23c Starfleet

    8 of them were done before and 2 after Delta rising. Considering what an effort it has become after Delta rising to get a toon into a position where I want it to have I have no intention to make more. Only exception is most likely new factions preferably in combination with recruitments programs.

    3 "regular" 25c Starfleet officers (Human Engineer, Caitian Science, Tellarite Tactical)
    1 temporal agent 29c Starfleet (Tellarite Engineer)
    1 "regular" KDF officer (Klingon Tactical)
    1 "KDF aligned" Deferi officer (Deferi (Alien) Engineer)
    1 "KDF aligned" Garidian officer (Romulan Science)

    and currently another Fed tac who however will be retired and take a position in my fleet starbase (lore wise) so I can delete the character and create a Lukari which will probably be Science and Fed aligned.​​

    Now, I've only been playing for a few weeks, but I have 5, though none of them are max level yet. I started off making a Fed Engineer, because my wife, my best friend and I were all going to play together when we could with me as Eng, Her as Tac and him as Sci. Well, friend started school and doesn't really have a lot of playtime, so my wife and I made Klingons, mine is another Engineer. When she also didn't feel like playing but I did, I made a Tac Romulan, so I could better understand how she was playing and help her more, got him to 50 them my friend started playing more, and he was a little lost so I created a Fed Sci toon and got it to 51. I really want to play Engineer though. Since neither of them like to play as much as I do, I created a third engineer, another Fed this time.

    Ten (were it not for the Delta and Temporal recruitments, I'd still have six and still think it's too many to work with), and very little activity on any of them aside from FEs and stuff.

    5 actually.. I deleted a bunch of alts during Delta Rising because of the leveling curve introduced which cut back on my ship purchases from the online store.

    Out of the five I have one main orion engie because the KDF has a better starbase then Feds with the stone hearth fire place and dancers at their bar.

    My romulan tac is my fun with crits toon.

    My fed engie that I leveled was something I could experiment with from my main and also give me an AoY toon to enjoy TOS ships since those are in limited supply KDF side because lock box D-7's generate more profits sadly.

    The other two AoY toons I have are stuck in the 23 century because frankly the sector map, supplies, and everything else is always what I wanted in a Star Trek game and it lets me buy 23 century gear to upgrade and send to other toons as I wish.

    For me just two, my main character (60+) and my AoY character (15) is all I can keep up with. Heck I haven't even leveled up all the stuff on my main character yet and I have been playing for over a year and in a fleet for over 6 months. My recruitment, colonial, military commendations, and one other I can't remember which one, are still at level 2! The others are at level 4 but those last few are SLOW going...and yes I try and grind every day to at least get the dailies done and maybe a few battles and maybe a mission. I am amazed at those that have done it with so many characters, wow! Over 50 characters? Jaw dropping!

    Tactical main since head start.

    A Romulan engineer from "Legacy of Romulus" that I got bored of and left to collect dust until recently (she still flies the Dyson Warbird that hits like a sack of potatoes)

    A Delta engineer that I totally forgot about until recently too.

    And a Temporal science agent that I was actually forced to care about because of the UR MK13 reward, that consequently got me to revisit my other neglected characters...

    I have about 9 I think they are

    Alien sicence level 60
    Gorn Enginner level 60
    Romulun/Ex-Borg tactical level 60
    Alien/cardassian science level 60
    Alien tactical level 60
    Caitian tactical level 60
    Talaxian tactical level 60
    Ex-Borg/human-Delta Recruite-Enginner level 60
    Human-Temporal Agent-tactical level 60

    my favorite so far is my Temporal Agent ^^

    4
    one main and 3 others who work for her
    Only because I wanted the account unlocks from Delta Recruits and Temporal Agents
    the extra Temporal Agent was because I changed my mind what I wanted to play and didn't feel like deleting one

    But all of them have backstories. Can't stand having characters without one :)

    I figured I should go into greater detail on my roster, I made sure to make each one distinct from the rest by making sure each faction and speciality combination were represented. Ditto with energy weapon type B) And a different race for each one too.

    UFP:
    • Human Tac
    • Joined Trill Eng
    • Vulcan Sci

    KDF:
    • Klingon Eng
    • Orion Tac
    • Alien Sci

    RR:
    • Rom Sci
    • Lib Borg Rom Tac
    • Reman Eng (DR)

    And finally, for AOY an Andorian Tac.

    All are female, all are max level. The newest ones of course aren't fully geared yet. Agreed about backstories, I made sure to give each one a unique tale for how they came to be where they are :D

    Fed Tac Andorian Male
    Fed Sci Alien Female.

    2 are KDF, and are just for generating contraband for may mains.

    My last character is the only TOS character I made, to get the account rewards.
