From reading various threads it is apparent lots of people have more than one WW accounts. Just wondering why?
Really just want want to see if I am missing a trick? Have so much stuff to level and so much Ag needed, at the moment I would think it would just divert time from the main account, but then I suppose it would be nice to have somewhere to try out something new without having to level it for a week before using it? But just wondering if there are other reasons to have one? Others than scamming influences points of course.

But just wondering if there are other reasons to have one? Others than scamming influences points of course. influence points? what is that?  for me reasons are like these: (1) with the first account, I spent golds and made a lot of mistakes. so I would like to see how far and fast I can go, if I don't make the same mistake. I decided not to use any cash, to see whether this game needs cash to be competitive, as many are ranting, (2) I am in a clan where most of clanmates are in a lower league than me. squading with them, some of them (those who keep inviting me ...) rarely survive first a few minutes. with the second account, I can squad with them. (3) when you leveled things up to 10, there is a point you just need to grind a lot to earn silver for upgrade further (or pay for the premium account). each game is very demanding and wait between upgrades gets very long. a second account brings a different kind of fun, while waiting for an upgrade or during the grind to get silver in the first account (ah this one you already mentiones), (4) with the second account, you can just win everything until certain point, against newbies. but after that point, you will suddenly face all those "meta" bots and more seasoned players. countering them with under-leveled and cheaper gears provides a real challenge, (5) wanted to try new bots I never tried (Cossack, Boa, etc), but too lazy to go to the test server  others may have different reasons. these are mine, |

Main account on my iPad, secondary on my iPhone. Only use the phone when I'm bored and don't have access to the pad. I do purposely experiment with the phone account trying different builds.

iOS is where I started Walking War Robots, after almost 2 years started Android account for a heads up, since Android updates come out 7 to 14 days before iOS.
Both are serious accounts.
Secondary iOS account, old iPad laying around, why not. This account is just for fun, made a decision last week to keep it where it is and progress no further on bots or weapons. 4 slot 7/8. Only play it occasionally 4 or 5 times a week, don't care about dailies. WSP is already shutdown. Just play what I got, which ain't much and see what happens.

I was given a leveled up account so I could play with other people right away. So the account is not mine, and I missed the early part of the game (my bots were about 7 or 8 initially). Plus the early bots are already obsolete, so I wanted to see that part of the game.
So my secondary account is mine, while my main account is not actually mine in case it gets repoed. I got to experience bronze and silver tier in the old MM system, play bots like destier and machine guns, and experience seal clubbing, and develop a different hanger for silver tier play. I also had different fun toys not found on my main account, that I don't have time to level up.

Because if you want to remain in top tier leagues it's very competitive and stressful. Sometimes I just want to play for the hell of it and not be overly concerned about losing or dropping league points.

For me: boredom and curiosity. My main hangar is 8/9 and stuck in LQ. It's gotten to Champion through that joke of a system, and I can't seem to get it out (I'm at something like 70 games in a row without leaving or disconnecting). When I squad with clan mates, we face six identical copies of the same 12/12 hangar basically. There are interchangeable parts, but it's essentially the same exact game every game.
Starting fresh allows us to try new strategies from the bottom up, as well as getting that fresh breath of air that is variety in gameplay.

2nd account was and is mainly to be able to play with clanmates that are less levled than my main account, since I am in the less active clan that doubles as the starter clan where we have Silver league players. It allows for me to be able to play a different aspect of the game, provide better advice to those level players, and if I don't have the tablet that has the main account, I can play on the one that has the 2nd acct since I carry that tablet everywhere (more general purpose device that I use at work as much as I do at home.
Plus... it really is fun to challenge yourself to use under-powered weapons against very upgraded competition. I have a clan-mate that is playing on his younger family members account, and since he has some major free time, is running 5-6 level bots and weapons, and is in (or almost in) diamond by now. But he's a mad killer that plays and hangs with Champs while in his lvl 9s on his main account. He really is a certifiable beast, so I don't know that he is a good example of that lol.
Either way, for me, it reinforces that skill trumps gear. Experience is the true builder of skill, though, so I don't expect noobs in 6/6 bots/weapons to rock the game, but if they are willing to learn, we can teach them what works... and prove it works. Not as a showoff thing... but as an example.

Don't see how it can get any worse...  |

I used it to found my clan. Then I have a second one for a friend to play on if that ever comes up. |

Cheer guys, thanks for the responses. I'm probably not ready for a second one yet but might do at some point. My kid has a silver lll account on android, so I plan that sometimes, really just to see what Fujins are for (still not sure on that one)

I run 8 profiles now. All are different. I did it out of boredom and experimentation. 7 are Android Google Play accounts and 1 is on Amazon. I won't countenance iOS products in my home so that option is dead to me. But I use all of my profiles. I just use 1 a day and switch daily.
