One account can be logged in multiple times

It's not a bug, it's a feature! ; )

I'm just kidding, by the way.

Thought I'd reply to this anyways, I heard from my friend that it was fixed and I double confirmed it myself as well. Looks like everyone's hopes was just shot down lol, although it is super nice.

Dang, hotfixed like a boss! Super short lived glitch was super shortlived.

I can still log in the same account twice o_O

The only practical use I can see taking advantage of is making storage transfers a lot quicker though... I can just shove a couple items in on one char, take them out on the other, etc. without having to relog half a dozen times.

I guess that's more important if you share 10+ equips between your characters though (3 rings, top/bottom, cape, glove/shoe, eye/ear accessory are currently shared between my DK & Paladin - I'll eventually add a VIP belt to that, hopefully Nexon will release a helm at some point too)

I recommend buying storage slots.
If your two chars are logged in at once you can just have them trade each other, no need for storage at all.

Right now when you make a new character you have to decide whether you want it on the same account for BoF and account-sharable gear (including cash shop items if it's an explorer),
or in a separate account so you could use it at the same time as your main to buff it, or self-leech, or party with yourself, or just be two places at once (such as having a shop open while training).
If this multi-login were actually a feature added to the game, it would solve that dilemma.

i tried that, when i tried to login SAME char twice, it dced me.

when i tried to login ANOTHER char on my account it worked.

I have 12 storage slots, so I can transfer all at once... if I'm just moving equips. If I want to get rid of pots or etc. to make space, I have to go back and forth a few times. Right now I also have about 4 equip slots free between the 6 characters on my account so it's a bit awkward transfering stuff.


Considering how easy it is to get Zombie rings though, I'll probably just leave 2-3 on every character (depending which have wedding rings) and only transfer the Lilin's ring around, until I can afford some Visitor rings.

glitch still working?

All of my 7 chars are in the same family now xD I just hope they won't ban me for just this u.u

Apparently the storage can only be opened by one of the two chars at once, which means that had to be programmed. Is this a possibility that this entire thing is intentional?

Didn't have to be programmed. Could be something the database does on its own, locking those records to the client that opened them.
If it were programmed I'd expect a meaningful message instead of the second char getting stuck and needing to relog, which is what I'm told happens.

I really hope this is a feature...

I logged a ticket with Nexon, asking them to clarify whether this is intended or not.

While the temptation is strong to use this to have shop open while training, or 2x rep buff my main with her cygnus, I will resist it until such clarification is issued.
The convenience is not worth getting banned over.

If it is a feature, it should be better set-up
There should be a different password when trying to log on a 2nd time
And a confirmation from the character thats already online
Especially if the 2nd character is logging in from a strange ip address
Idk, this would just make me feel safer

People don't want to have to remember another password in addition to their current password + PIC.

I think something along the lines of only being able to log in the same account again if all connections are from the same IP would be easier and better.

I agree with the same-IP thing. That could cut out any potential problems that may arise with the way its working right now.

For what it's worth, today's patch didn't fix this.
My ticket is still in the "open" status, meaning nobody has even looked at it. Maybe if I'd put it in the "billing" section...

But then people can't leave their home computer on and leech themselves while at school (not high school, obviously). Or alternatively, if I were still playing, I'd use this "feature" to leave a shop mule open and play my main character while on campus.

Oh no.. let the dupe exploit with rollback begins!

Get into an account, transfer item to another id via duey > Re-login that character with another PC [and duey it again and again] > logoff the first character used for duey-ing > logoff the second character via another PC

if those doesn't work

Get into an account > Transfer item to storage, change channel and open storage > get another PC > Open another character of that ID > open storage and take out the item from both logins.

VOLA~ duped
This happens because the Storage is committed to database upon channel change/logoff and by double login, you have access to the same data cached to the server at the same time. Therefore retrieving another copy of it legitly.
This is just some general knowledge I know of.

1st doesn't work because you can't log in the same character twice.

2nd, I'm told, doesn't work because opening storage on one char locks it so you can't open it on another char. The second client freezes up (probably "hung", waiting to acquire database lock).

Oh man.. smart Nexon.

There should be plenty of possibilities, you might want to try the second method on Fredrick (Merchant storage NPC).
Opening 2 merchant with different characters, and retrieve the items together.

I don't know if it's like SEA, where the items can be picked up by different characters but same account.
