Revision as of 15:00, 23 September 2016

Template:Current Clone States is the new free-to-play system that will be implemented in November 2016. There will two different types of clones:

  • Alpha clones, which are limited in which skills they can train, but which cost no subscription fee to play
  • Omega clones, can train and use all skills, but which require a monthly subscription fee to play

Any characters on an account with an active subscription (paid for with time cards, monthly payments, PLEX...) are Omega clones, whereas any characters on an account without an active subscription are Alpha Clones. There is no way to tell an Alpha from an Omega clone in-game. The conversion from Alpha to Omega or vice-versa will always happen at the start of a new before or after a session.

If an Omega clone is downgraded to an Alpha clone (because the account's subscription has run out), any skills that character has trained which are not part of the Alpha skill set are locked and become inactive, i.e. they cannot be used, but the invested skill points will not be lost. Any items or ships which require the locked skill become inactive. If the account's subscription is renewed, then the character is automatically upgraded back to an Omega clone and can once again use all the skills they have previously trained.
