Random name generator

#1 Post by edge226 »

Okay so my current method for getting a random name is hitting random a bunch of time sand hope I dont autoclick past the race that I want with the name.

I propose an easier method. A random name generator so we can select a race and class. Based on either the race, class or both you can get a random name that suits your character easier.

You can right click on the name box to generate a random name.

Awesome thanks a bunch! Perhaps a tooltip should be added when you hover over the name box to let unaware users know?

Is there really? I did the same method as mentioned above or manually entered names for a while before I found out about clicking to make a random name that was race appropriate, and I found out from somebody else mentioning it, not as a tooltip. Either way, maybe something a little more obvious might help?

Yeah the tooltip is there but its in a really non-obvious place. Its one of those things where you notice it when you know it exists. Its when you hover over the name the spot where the race/class shows the info it says to right click.
