"For the Field items are limited to a one time choice per item per account."


Meaning, ONE CHARACTER, ONE SERVER, per account.


Sorry devs but to me "Account" is all my characters on all the servers I play on. I'm sure the character I try new professions is quite happy with her for the field item BUT, Path is pissed.

They probably did this to prevent cross server trading

I don't have a problem with one reward per character per server. I do think SOE needs to define "Account" better.

Your angry because you have a character on X server and a character on Y server and you only get 1 reward for both characters?

If thats the case... quit being so greedy.

Your account has always been defined as the 1 point you login with and all characters on all servers associated with THAT ACCOUNT. If you have 2 accounts, you have to log off and log back in with the other account.

This is a reward for loyalty, not a free prize. You really want the market flooded with this stuff? I dont.

No. I'm angry because SOE did not clearly state that this reward was for one character per account. I logged into my test account this morning (not TC), got the message boxes, assumed it worked as the vet reward for the sub, claimed the reward. Logged off the server that I try new professions on and logged into my real character where there are no rewards because my test toon claimed them.


I have no desire to flood any market. This is not the first time SOE has failed in technical writing. (I spent 3 years in this field. They suck at it) I made this post to WARN other players so they receive their award on the server and character they desire.

But they did spell it out for everyone, for the time before going live you could have tested it on the Test Center and it wouldnt affect you main charicters when it went live (today) now that it is live the TC counts against you. But it was all spelled out on the forums.

I never had any doubt in my mind what they meant by "one character per account". Its not rocket science. It sucks and I'm sorry you lost the rewards (Maybe a CSR can help?) but you can't hold SOE responsible for you not reading the notices.

Quick question... It wasnt mentioned, or at least I didnt see it, but is this per character or account? Meaning do you get to pick a reward for every character per mile stone or simply one pick per milestone for your account? I would very much assume its per account.


Per account. You decide on which character/galaxy to take the reward though.

SOETyrant answered this. If you checked the thread about the veteran rewards and/or devtracker you would have seen this.

Players will be able to choose one reward from the milestones depending on how long their account has been active. So for example, if your account was 3 months old and you wanted a "For Fun" item, you could choose either the Protocol Droid or the R2 Droid.

For The Field Items are limited to a one time choice per item per account. For example once you choose a Self powered harvester you can not choose another. You could choose a Crate of any existing resource (30k), but once you took that, you would not be able to take it again with a future choice. The For the Home and For Fun items can be taken multiple times.


Your account's age is based on active time. You can claim rewards from categories that are equal to or less than your time invested in the game.


Not the same wording. THAT'S the point. Worded in the manner they posted, it is confusing. One character per account...is not.
