Looking back over all of the characters that I’ve made in MMOs, I’ve probably spent half my time on low-level alts that never went anywhere. Yet that didn’t feel like wasted time to me; I had fun with them and occasionally got to see the game from a slightly different perspective.
Sometimes it’s just fun to create and play lowbie alts even if you have no serious intention of journeying with them to the max level. Perhaps it’s out of curiosity for the class, or to get a change of pace, or because you want to experiment with something different.
Do you have alts like this? Which lowbie character have you actually enjoyed playing, even if you’re not a level capped warlord?
