Pre-orders and maxed character slots

[Sylindria.8562]

Hi 

This is a bit of a #FirstworldProblems post and I am probably in a minority of players - I maxed out my account to 70 characters but if I pre-order two of the packages I get a free character slot - it's lovely but I cant use it. 

 

I've seen something somewhere else that suggests I wont be the only one - would there be an option to maybe swap it out for something else if the probably small number of us in a similar position contact support or do we just destroy it and chalk it up to 'ah well'?

 

If you're going to increase the maximum number of characters I promise I WONT complain :)

 

yours sincerely

I had the max 70 chars, and I preordered the ultimate and got the char slot.  My max is now 71.

 

Does that answer your question, or did I misunderstand what you were asking about?

 

Edit: You don't get something to click on in-game, it just showed up in my log in screen.

How'd you manage 74?  Even with the above, according to the wiki, the max is still 70/71.  I know personally I have all the above and bought them at the time, and maxed out at 71.  I could see 72 possibly, with EoD, since I remember having an issue that never really got resolved with the veteran reward, but where'd the extra 3 come from?

Oh thought it was 70 for base but looks like 69.

 

So with veteran reward for base game when it went free to play each giving 1 and eod its 73 then

 

Edit

Scratch that max people have is 71 your right so if they make the extra character slot merge with hot and pof 1 it will be 71 after this release aswell.
