Why have two different characters of the same class?

Hey, I think it’s cool that you play in a way a lot of people who post here don’t, at least it seems that way.

When you play to 1-70 then delete your character does that mean you don’t play any of the Torment difficulties? Do you just stick to normal in that case? I find that interesting.

I see people sometimes with 3 barbarians, or 3 demon hunters and I don’t really see the point when you can change your skills on the fly.

Some of my old characters on ptr mainly, have been for reference purposes, so i can just quickly check. However, i don’t trust the armory since I’ve lost items to it before. Never again.

I have multiple chars usually for similar purposes. for instance, i might have 3 Demon hunters, 1 zdh, 1 experimental builds, 1 meta. same with other classes.

Thanks to seasonal gains, any new character will have about 2000 paragon so, if I spend them, I can start on a higher difficulty if I want and sometimes I do if I want to get legendary items. Normal has virtually no chance for it. But, it depends on what I’m doing to gain the levels… usually I prefer Nephalem rifts so I’ll tend to start the game at whatever Torment I feel I can handle, which is basically II or III, though some characters can start at IV (I don’t feel like “proving” anything so I don’t push - I just kill and loot but want the game to feel rewarding.)
