I think i know the answers but i haven't seen them explicitly mentioned:

i plan to split an account so I can have 2 toons on at the same time
i plan to run both accounts off the same pc

sooo
before I run the xfer account command from my client to begin the split process, I have to actually set up a whole new account, including re-entering my real-life name, credit card #, etc. correct?

Do i also need to install the client again on the same computer? I read somewhere that all i need to do is copy the "Mythic" install folder into another folder (like "Mythic 2") that can then operate as my second client but that seems a little shaky to me--wouldn't they end up using the same registry keys and also internal references in the Mythic 2 folder might still refer to files in the original Mythic path.

Finally, do i need 2 separate CD keys to run the 2 clients even if they are on the same pc?

Thanks in advance.

Account splitting is not live on European servers yet.

I know its not for european but ...

You dont need to have 2 client directories, 1 client directory will happily support 2 running versions of the game (assuming your hardware can cope). You do not need 2 CD Keys to start the game (you dont even need 1, that field can be blank) You only need the seperate keys when creating the accounts on the subscription website.

it doesnt matter if you share cd key because you need a new one to register
