Neither my Befallen guild or the Nagafen guild are very hardcore. Both Dawn of Evolution and Betrayed raid, and raid well for casual smaller guilds, and both know full well of my two main thingies. So I'm not alone!

now my main is DEFINITELY just my fury cause i got bored on elek, she's "retired" but i DID move her over to najena from nek to be with the rest of my toons. & i made my "alt" into my monk. the rest of my toons r just pretty much randoms.
I alternate between Imtithal and Rhoslyn. Some days I just don't want to play a Necromancer AGAIN, know what I mean?

Yeah, sometimes I wish I could have my two Befallen alts, Natala the swashbuckler and Zaliki the illusionist on at the same time. They're my fuzzy little alts.

Eventually Natala, my 57 swash, will be my next level 70 character after Rhoslyn and then Imtithal. Natala will be kinda more useful for raids than Rhoslyn unless a super-ultra-backup tank is needed.


Yeah!

Does it make sense?

Logically? No.
Gramatically? No.

"Main" means it's primary or where the most time and energy is devoted.

I could understand how people would want to play a class as much as another one though. I've got two 70's with similar gear/spells and I'll pick the Brigand over the Templar any day though.

Default Re: Two Mains? Does that make sense?

I have 5 level 70's, 4 that are completely mastered or 1 spell away. I consider my ranger my raiding main, but I end up helping out with my defiler a lot, and I have probably been on more raids lately with my defiler. I 2 / 3 box a lot with my bruiser/defiler/coercer. My order of fun is:

1. Ranger
2. Bruiser
3. Coercer
4. Conjuror
5. Defiler

In the end, whatever gets success for the raid works for me. The change in class armor drops hurts when my ranger is sitting out though, and I have killed Wuoshi with both my defiler and coercer but not my ranger.

Once I start a character in a game, than start playing him, I get extremely bored if I ever try another character.

I get attached to one and only one...

70 Fury and 70 Mystic.

I've poured a lot of time and attention into the Fury. 70 Alchemist (60 pre-KoS), 100 AA, ~1200 quests, >400K guild status (in a non-raiding guild), L&L's (before they meant anything), HQ's, etc

The Mystic was more or less power-leveled with the Fury.

I've begun to play far more than my friends and have decided to do more raiding and everyone here seems to need a Mystic.

In this case, I mean I ground out the levels as opposed to doing quests or anything else. Just killed. 2-boxed with the Fury mentored.
