weeee that was a long subject....
anyways, in the words of the poet TheRook...
"is it possible to do a race change on your main account (to set your ascended type to 0 obviously you will lose a lot of stuff there... but could you not then reascend 6 times and ADD to your current ascended account?) "
I want a nicer ascended account
thanks -Michael

By my understanding if you change races in main it does not affect your ascended account. Also changing races in ascended has no negative effects either as far as I know. I may be wrong so if someone else knows for sure please post.

You misunderstand. He wants to change his main race back to a basic unascended race, so he can rack up another 10 ascensions for the APP's.

Harsh, but true. Is there something morally wrong with that?

that is what I said... I wouldn't class myself as a poet...
but I do know a poem about a girl called mary and her pet lamb...

I'd like to know if this is possible too... and I'm sure High Empty wouldn't mind as he has reached his 10 ascension caps...

Morally? I don't think so. But I don't know if it's technically possible. I don't know if the ascension count is reset if you change back to an unascended race.

I'm sure I read somewhere that it's not possible.
Say you got to LG+1, then changed race, you would only be able to reach Incarnate (which would be your 10th ascention).
The other thing to consider would be the cost of ascention. If you changed race to an unascended one, would the cost for ascention be the same as your 1st one, or your 7th? (since you were a LG+1 before).
EDIT:

But you also lost all your ascended bonuses in main.
This was dicussed in the ascension forums.
It's not possible

Then he'd have to delete both cause you can't have 2 ascended accounts. Multiing is forbidden in there as well.

Thanks all

My question is this. If forum allowed you to deascend yourself (aka change to the race replicator for example), why would it not reset EVERYTHING, including your ascended account? I see (personally) nothing wrong with caring more about one account more than the other. There are some that care about main and not about ascended. There are also people that care about ascended and not so much about main. Why not let those ppl ascend unlimited times, HELPING ascended account and HURTING (Equally) main?
Also, it was a bad choice of words... not much can be morally wrong in a game.
Thanks

I know that Jaxin switched back to replicator after he ascended, and I don't believe that it reset the ascension counter.

It has been shown that you can't delete your ascended account also - another problem. Oh, and another... if you deascend yourself, you still have an ascended account... isn't that bad also? because you're not ascended?

I think because you ahve ascended once you have earnt your place on that server...
if FORUM would let you transfer all your UU/ naq to a new account... and then add your UP & lifers onto my (:))account... then delete your main & ascended one I think that would be fair...
