EQ2Wire reported last week about individual classes and broker access being available for purchase on EQ2X in the near future. The future is now.
This just in from Smokejumper on the EQ2X Forums:
If you are a Bronze or Silver member, there are two new features available to you!
Classes, a la Carte!
You can now purchase individual classes for 750 SC each. You can either purchase them in the marketplace or at the time of character creation. All classes outside of the original eight free ones are available for purchase.
(Gold and Platinum members, this doesn’t affect you since you have always had access to all the classes.)
Broker Credits!
If you wish to interact on the Broker system (either listing an item for sale or purchasing something for yourself), you can now do so. A pack of 10 Broker Credits is available for 150 SC. Each time you list an item or purchase something, you expend one credit.
(Again, Gold and Platinum members don’t need these since they have open access to the Broker at all times.)
Something I never understood here was, once you purchase a race or a class, is it only for that toon, or for your account as a whoel.
Your account is flagged for it I believe
Race and class unlocks are per account. The three race bundles would make even less sense if that wasn’t true, because you can’t be more than one race at a time.
I seem to recall that the $35 copy from EQ2 Live unlocks the relevant race and class of that character, but not for the account.
