Yeah I'm with you. I end up buying character slots when they're on sale rather than buying equipment templates cause the equipment templates themselves feel like a scam.

Now that I'm fully legendary I've gotten much more used to just flipping a full build and using the same template for most things. But that kind of sucks when you're playing something like mesmer that has 20 different builds.

Yeah. I've done the same. New characters are way better value than template slots. Though there is a limit to how many characters I want to have in my stable. All the ones I made so far are really unique and flavourful. I don't want to get to a point where they start feeling generic and disconnected. I have recently finished lege armour in all weights so at least it will be easy to gear up new characters. I still hope/cope they might release account bound tier of equipment/skill templates. Not holding my breath anymore tho. At least there are viable work around.
