Inability To Stick With One Character

Okay.
So I have a problem with this game.
Every couple of months or so, I end up switching main characters after throwing RIDICULOUS amounts of either NX/Meso into them. So far I have done this with DB, Mercedes, Kaiser, AB, NL, Shad, Hayato, BaM, WH, and recently Shad again. How do I fix this problem?
Do I just switch characters to something that keeps me there, or what?
Does anyone have any recommendations as to what I should do?
Should I just keep on making Characters until I find one to stick with?
Should I just stop trying to fund myself on every character I make>
How can I stop wasting money like this?
Sorry, if it just seems like I'm complaining but this really has me weirded out.
On another note, I think I may seriously consider Zero as a main character o.o.

[quote=CityKing]I also had this problem when I first started ms. I would make a character, get it to around 100, got bored of it, delete it and make another class. I done this with, MM, DS, NL, Merc, and Kaiser. That was until I played Phantom and haven't looked back. Get Characters that have link skill to 70 or 120 to see it you really want to main it any of those. If not, use them for the skills and move on to the 1 you like.[/quote]

yea but instead of deleting ur char and making a new class u delete ur phantom and make a new phantom...

I'd hardly call that a problem. Enjoy them all and stop looking at the fact that we can have multiple characters as a bad thing.

Kids in africa only have one.

I have a Phantom and dropped it at 121. Got bored. Plus Phantoms suck if they arent hyper funded. Honestly, though isn't that set just supporting me to switch and flip flop around with my characters though? Isn't another solution something similar to pouring all of my funds into one class and keeping that to keep me on it? I have no clue as to what to do

You haven't played phantom yet so that's why you're running around. When you play Phantom, you play 5 different characters at once. Forget Zero, Phantom is the bomb.

Its so weird though, sometimes I play two characters at the same time and I still get bored.
I'm thinking of just finding something fun and blocking all forms of nx to get more slots. If that helps. Ive bought maybe 4 slots in the past 3 months.

@griffin8373 Wow I have the same problem, the only thing is that I don't main any of them and and stuck with 20 characters to play for at once.

I did that for about 5 years, and then I found Angelic Buster and haven't even thought of quitting since.

being able to play all the classes u have available is so much better than focusing on one

Yeah like the first guy said, just get all tradeable equips and go old school with the universal gear like violet snowshoes and such. You can set one up for weapon attack with %all stats potential and one for magic attack with %int potential. Your biggest issue will be the weapon since most now have unique weapons. You will never be a super pro but at the rate you are switching, you never will be. It will save you a lot of meso though.

[quote=yoguy911]make a tradeable set of equips and get link skills for each ones, i can pretty much reach over 70k range for all my characters because of that.[/quote]

What set would you recommend?
Also I like the idea of a separate account but then what do I do my merching on? o.o
I think I'm addicted to spending NX... I may just call my credit card company and block Nexon from it. But then I end up riding 10 miles to the safeway to buy NX

i used to be like, actually i'm still like you, what i do is i have 2 accounts
one i play, the other one is a meso mule which i do not have the information to, if i need meso i need to ask my brother to transfer for me, if he doesn't like the reasoning he doesn't give me the mesos
may seem childish but ever since i started doing this i've changed mains twice in 8 months compared to 4 times in 4 months
