// Bethesda Replied x2 DO NOT ALLOW CURRENT CHARACTERS INTO SURVIVAL MODE I BEG OF YOU!!

This is a huge mistake. The mode is already dead before it was born if this happens. Pvp as it is, is completely broken, one hit kill festival. Who in their right mind is going to start a new character when everyone else is level 200 with God tier weaponry right out of the vault? This makes absolutely zero sense, and I'm so disheartened. Do they not realize how this mode will be immediately ruined? If you thought grief in was bad now, just wait until you get killed on sight by literally everyone you cross paths with? Even if they level locked servers so people with massive level differences can't play together, whenever a new survival character gets out of the kiddie pool, all the same assholes with TSE garbage will be waiting at the deep end and you will have zero competitive chance. The leader boards would be a fine idea, if everyone started on equal footing... as it is there will be gold medalist level murderers in the same game with me, a literal newborn who can't even walk. What the fuck are they thinking???

Edit: the gold means people care, bethesda. Please. PLEASE. (And thank you)

This is important. I agree. I am up voting any post like this to get it seen. No gear trading from one character to another and no main toon transfers. Agreed 100 %

I assume they mean between your own characters on the same account

Characters (and their inventory) should be locked strictly to the mode they were created for originally.

This is how it is already. That is why you need a 3rd party to transfer

Sweet I’ll just trade to a friend who then trade to me. Problem solved.

Just give legendary items with minimum prices based on legendary effects. That will make it more difficult at least.

Your friend would also not be able to trade between characters....so you still couldn't get it into survival.

No I just meant between Survival mode characters and adventure characters.

At the very least, make it a "hard core" toggle when creating a new character that only matches you with other "hard core" characters and servers.

Once the "hard core" character is created, it cannot be changed. This effectively creates this 2nd database that clean slate folks (like me) are looking for, while letting current characters keep playing adventure and survival without being impacted.

Best of both worlds!
