I cant create a new character either, I have one more slot, and this is the message i get:
All shards are currently under maintenance. Please attempt to create a character after maintenance periods have completed. (for Order Shard)
I, however, can log into the game fine.
When I go to delete my blight characters, it also says when I choose the deletion, you are not logged in, please log in to delete. It drops me right out of the deletion panel into the login, I log in, choose the character, hit delete key, and same thing ahppens as above
