My friend is coming back to FFXI and I have some questions, mostly aimed at anyone who has been in this situation before.
One of his accounts is on my server, with his main 50-something DRK. On the account is the basic FFXI + Zilart package.
The other account is on a different server, registered with the Vana'diel Collection (a separate FFXI + Zilart, and CoP).
He wants to restore his DRK on his first account, but is wondering if he can get his only copy of CoP registered to his first account as well so he won't have to buy a new one. Is there a way to deactivate expansions or remove them from an account so that the keys can be used on a different account? If he phones SE, will they be able to switch over CoP's "ownership" if he can prove that he owns both accounts?
Alternatively, can he simply restore his DRK on his account with CoP? And no, I don't know why he has two accounts. :\ | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-25-2006, 02:47 AM | #2 (permalink) | | Dr. Tran Brain of Knowledge Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Los Angeles, Ca.

You know, I was just about to ask why he has 2 accounts, lol... but nevermind.  | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-25-2006, 03:23 AM | #3 (permalink) | | Junior Member Join Date: Dec 2002 Posts: 109 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 502 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 502 Donate | Re: Does anyone here own two accounts? Ok, now that that idea's out, do you know anything about the second option? Restoring a character to a different account if he can prove that he owns both of them? | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-25-2006, 04:02 AM | #4 (permalink) | | Programming Slave Administrator Join Date: Feb 2003 Location: California, USA Posts: 1,553 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 65 Thanked 60x in 29 Posts Gil: 32,940 Bank: 20,473,818 Total Gil: 20,506,758 Donate | Re: Does anyone here own two accounts? Not likely. You are pretty much SOL and have to buy the expansion for the other one to get the other character working.

And SE will never transfer characters between accounts, just because they don't do that. They might open up a service sometime, not now though. Originally Posted by MrMageo | | I traded it for a bag of cocaine | |M|r|M|a|g|e|o|

Yea, you're gonna have to buy all the exapansions for the other account. I actually have 3 accounts, two have all expansions one is just RoZ. And no, you wont be able to transfer characters to other accounts. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-25-2006, 07:52 AM | #7 (permalink) | | Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Posts: 813 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 44 Thanked 18x in 13 Posts Gil: 3,873 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 3,873 Donate | Re: Does anyone here own two accounts?

I still don't see the point in having 2+ accounts. I think one account has enough Content ID's for additional mules. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | All times are GMT -8.
