kind off bored atm , and I wanted to make the opposing gender of the 3 other classes but since more character creation slots are from a mod , I’d like to know if there are any longtime Darktide players who’ve been using it and if you had any issues with character loss or other hick-ups that with your characters that might be caused by this mod. Thanks
The mod doesn’t “create” the character, but simply increase the amount of slots you’re accessing out of the total slots FS has created in back end. Which iirc it’s 8 slots. It is unknown why they’ve made 8 and only gave access to 5 of them, but even in the case of the mod breaking, the character would still be “safe” in the back end, just inaccessible till they fix the mod

It seems that the personality scourge (aka changing your voice) doesn’t work on characters created on the extra slots. Only thing I know of, but I probabyl wouldn’t rely on the extra slots for characters you’re invested in because of this and implications for future mechanics releases.

Well there is already the question on whether or not there will be additional archetypes, then there is also the question on whether or not they would increase the back end slots at that time
I have created a sixth and seventh character via the mod and haven’t run into any inconveniences since then.
Another cool side effect is that you can create more loadouts then 5 for any character which I have made extensive use of.
After each updates mods are desktivated - the characters and loadouts you created will stay and can be altered without mods (haven’t reactivated mods since February)
So you still have access to the character now ? Even without having the mod enabled
Exactly

Never had any problems with it. None at all.
I made 3 new characters for 7 total. With the mod enabled, I still have one open slot and could create another if I chose. When I disable the mod (or, more often, when I forget to re-enable them after an update) I can still choose between all 7 of my characters -none of them disappear or anything- but I no longer have that one empty slot to make another character.
It’s pretty risk-free.

I do have to ask, now with the personality Scourge, what is the point of making new characters? Especially since you can’t share items? The leveling experience doesn’t seem particularly fun.
Only thing I could imagaine would be Melk farming, both for tokens and for blessings, but that seems like a lot of work for not much reward.
In theory more characters means more melk contracts each week, since currency is shared between characters you could get more melkbucks that way. Though I don’t see much point in this because I already get more than I can spend just from my existing four characters.
I use the mod myself but only to increase the number of loadout slots, I don’t make extra characters.
i have alot of 80% rolls with the right blessings/traits on all 4 classes for multiple builds , I’ve made a 2nd ogryn last year but that guy is also geared out. I wanted to do a male and female variant of each class since forever but then took a 3month break, and now I’m back and got to entertain myself somehow till the next map drops /crafting update. I haven’t used melk for 8months now because everytime I looked there was garbage i basically spent all my money on brunts when it released and all of my plasteel/diamantine too. TLDR just doing it for fun
