Ok, this patch is getting me to go thru all my alts to get the PAs from the EB badges. And this is primarily level 50s, all 102 of them.
That's letting me recheck what status I'm filing them under:
Mothballed: Stripped for parts, but put to the side if I want to maybe figure out an active build. Usually because I have another similar character I'm much happier with playing. Might populate with level 50 IOs
Deleted: Normally a char I just don't find fun to play or doesn't fit a niche, or completely redundant
Respec: Ok, let's rebuild to current standards and fill in sets. Normally they are populated with generic 50 IOs, but might have lower level ones
Done: Doesn't need much attention, and I'll play them when that char seems to fit best in. They might need to respec with patch changes, but for the most part won't change much.
Looking at mothballing about 40 at this point, deleting a dozen, another dozen are in the Done, with respecs on the rest. (Which may push them toward another column)
