o.k you must be rich and soo soo loaded in free time that you can actually get to play 24/7 and have backbone and wrist made of Adamatine, cos you know RSI and hunchback is a common thing.

Not rich. 120 accounts are F2P, only 7 accounts are actively played with purchases. So, not really that crazy.o.k you must be rich and soo soo loaded in free time that you can actually get to play 24/7 and have backbone and wrist made of Adamatine, cos you know RSI and hunchback is a common thing.

If you're planning to eventually get all the packs on each account I would take IoD on each because most expensive. The caveat is that the IoD bundles are worth the asking price, since the top end includes two mounts, a great hireling at heroic and epic levels and the free boxes. Obviously it is extremely expensive to do that across 4 or 5 accounts.
If you're only planning to get all on your main account eventually I would take a different x-pac on each account, starting with IoD for the first if you are not going to buy it, and plan to have them buddy your main 1 on 1 through the leveling process.
My experience with more than dual-boxing in DDO is dismal. And I'm pretty lucky normally with loot pulls. The problem is playing more than 2 characters at a time is a *very* slow process and speeding it up essentially involves abstaining from taking loot on the alt accounts and even then it really slows you down.
Your mileage may vary depending on if you have some way of controlling multiple characters in real time.

A cheap solution to your storage problems, eh? Never enough pack space whether my toon got ten inventory tabs, or 3 at the start!

If you are a true newb and want to milk this monh's gift as much as possible, I would make 8 accounts with each account with one of the expansions.
That way you can literally play every piece of content in DDO and find out what you like and more importantly gain game knowledge.
People don't understand that in DDO you level up 2 things at the same time; your character but also yourself as well.
Judging by Hardcore scores, the yourself portion is far more important than the character portion.

That sounds like a good way to suck the joy out of the entire game for a person. They'd have make 8x characters, level, and gear them across multiple accounts all with only f2p quests; that's just a chore vs playing the game and having fun.

You see.. this is because you're thinking like a super seasoned Vet with the endgame of minmax powerplay in mind.
Again, just someone who got the game and now explore all the worlds and just have fun frolicking through on normal/casual.

So all of this suggests that they are just 131 players actually playing DDO with about 617.4 accounts on average for each of them.
That would explain all the lag in groups as it would look like 1 player was actually moving while the other 5 were standing still unable to move (because the players can only control 1.47 characters at a time, on average.)

I feel bad only having 6 accounts.
One I play, a second I occasionally dual-box with, and 4 additional accounts to bump my personal guild up to 6 accounts.
I did purchase Sharn on each of the additional accounts last year to make them Premium, so I’ll pick up Isle of Dread on them.

Gotta say Dread seems to have the most challenging wilderness in DDO at level or not far over.. Not as much a utter joke as enemies in most wilderness areas......
