Has anyone used this in forever? Doesn't seem to work in so many ways I'm having a hard time qualifying the problem. What I've been trying to do is create an alternate profile using the equipment I have purchased/looted and will be available for me to wear at 90 (I'm currently 89).
Assuming the devs can clone my profile and try this out, here is a series of steps to reproduce on my character (Nlaak):
1) Create a new profile (L90)
2) Select the head piece
3) Select items from inventory & bank
4) Select Chilled Hide Helmet
At this point the item changes and the stats change showing a ton of +'s
5) Click Save button on the lower right
6) Click the L90 link on the left and the profile pops up
Odds are even that it will/won't work. Now, if it worked, proceed through the equipment going back to step #2 and running through step #6 for each piece. The law of averages will get you soon.
Hands Blunder Blockers
Legs Last Light Bolters
Feet Snake Tooth Sandals
Chest The Matriarch's Hunting Vest
The alt profile linked (L90) has several pieces that are now 'missing'. The chest was the last piece 'replaced' during editing and the only one that stayed. On the previous piece replace all worked except the head. They pop in and out sometimes, as long as you don't close the alt profile editor. Once problems start occurring the stats at the top accurately reflect the 'lack' of equipment you can't see in the editor.
You might link maybe the problem is the level of my character, and maybe it is but only sometimes. Also, why is it we can't edit the level of our alternate profiles? I can't be the only one wanting to do level planning, can I?
Next major problem: Try and replace my bracer from inventory/bank. The list in incorrectly parsed/displayed and is garbage. No equipment can be selected.
Another issue: Why is it when swapping equipment the augments don't stay (by default at least)? Sometimes when trying to put in the same aug in the new piece of equipment I'll get lore problems from the editing. Yeah, I know it's lore but I don't see a method to grab from inventory or other equipment. Annoying.
While on the subject of smaller issues, why can't I copy an alternate profile. I'd like to copy the default, edit the equipment and make the L90. Copy L90 and edit other slots (that I can change when I level again) and call it L92. Copy that, call it L95, etc.
At t his point I'm getting a serious case of buyers remorse. Yes, the default profile syncing works (most of the time) but I can see what I'm wearing by loading up the game and hitting 'I'. I don't personally really need offline viewing of my live character (though I understand the needs for it for others).
Final details (if necessary): Windows 7 64bit, Chrome 25.0.1364.172 (as of writing).

Hi nlaak,
Thanks for your report and sorry for the somewhat slow response.
The good news is that I fixed many issues related to the alt profiles:
- Fixed issue with the list of your inv/bank items being corrupted
- Fixed issue with the stats once you pick an item from your inv/bank
- Fixed layout issue with modifiers view and removed invisible slots from the report
- Fixed issue with your alt profile marked as not authentic when you only swap items with your inv/bank
With the above fixes, I was able to play quite a bit with alt profile on your characters just fine.
Desired improvements:
- Change level of character in an alt : Definitely a worthy idea and I believe doable with the current incarnation of the alt profile system, I will look into it.
- When swapping items, keep the augs if possible : This one a little more tricky with how the current system work, I will check if this is possible.
- Copy from another alt, instead of starting fresh : This one should be trivial to do.
Thanks again for this valuable feedback and I will make sure to work on those above improvements asap !

Jelan,
Thanks for the response and working on it. However, I haven't seen any (positive) changes wrt editing my profiles. I have (on the above account) a profile named L92 where I started adding my 92 gear (I'm currently level 90) and I had the same problem almost immediately. I've left it as is and you'll notice my neck piece is 'missing'. When you played with my alt profile did you assign augments to the items? As I replace the gear piece I put the same augment in the new piece as was in the old (since that's what I'll be doing in reality).
If there's any help I can provide in tracking this down, let me know,

"Fixed issue with your alt profile marked as not authentic when you only swap items with your inv/bank"
Jelan,
Was this for his profile only or a global adjustment? My alternate profile showing my 2-hander equipped vs. sword and shield is showing as not authentic.

Hi Altreal1,
It was a global fix but there was a remaining issue that is now fixed, thanks for your feedback !
nlaak, I have implemented all the desired improvements outlined above:
- You can now only equip items that match your character level. Somehow you could equip items out of your reach before but it was a bug and explained the bizarre behavior you had with alt profiles.
- You can now do some level planning. So basically for each alt profile, you can override your character level if you want, allowing you to equip greater items and augments.
- When you change an item, augments on the old items will be kept if possible now.
- Finally, you can copy an alt profile, you don't have to start from scratch all the time.
Let me know how things are going now and hopefully it should finally work as intended.

After a few minutes playing with this I have to say I'm impressed. Nice job.
Everything works well and I have no complaints.
One more suggestion that would be nice but no where near necessary is to limit (maybe optionally?) the list of items you give when the user selects a slot to items that are currently wearable (by level of the alt profile). Not important to me, but though I'd mention it.
Thanks,
Nlaak

Hi nlaak,
Glad to hear you like the recent improvements and things work fine for you now !
As for your suggestion unless I didn't understand, this is already happening now. The item list will not show items you shouldn't be able to equip due to having a required level higher than your character or your alt profile level.

Yeah, I just realized the problem. You limit the list to appropriate level gear when entering a name, but apparently not when selecting a piece of gear from inventory/bank. That's where it happens. I assumed it was everywhere until I created a profile with crafted gear that I didn't own by entering the name of the piece and that properly level limited (I forgot to increase the level of the profile for that one).
So try it with gear in the characters bank, you should see what I mean.
