VIP loyalty program

Introduced in May 1st, 2024, VIP/Loyalty program allows active VIPs get to unlock something special every month.

Account benefits

• 11 character slots per server (6 more than Premium, more may be purchased)
• 500 complementary DDO Points per month. More may be purchased or earned by gaining Favor.
• Access to the Alchemist class. Must purchase Artificer (account-wide) or unlock through Favor (per server). Must purchase Favored Soul (account-wide) or unlock through Favor (per server).
• Access to the Warforged race (also unlockable via Favor) and the Aasimar race. Must purchase Iconic Heroes.

Special benefits

• On rare occasions, VIPs may receive other benefits such as exclusive in-game items (for example, the Alabaster Lioness Figurine of Wondrous Power offered early in 2017).

Out-of-date benefits

• Login Queue: Priority. Due to a spree of bugs, DDO's login queue was disabled immediately after DDO Unlimited launched. It has never been reactivated, and as such any character logging onto a full server will simply receive an error message - not that this has happened for several years.
• DDO Compendium: Read/post. The in-game Compendium has been non-functional for several years.
• Official forums: Read/post. As of the update to the new forums, all accounts except staff are treated identically.
• Beta priority: High. DDO's limited beta programme was discontinued several years ago, to be replaced with the Player's Council (a fixed roster of prominent players which is updated on a once-yearly basis) and Lamannia preview server (open for a few short periods before each major update, free to all.) Occasional extra Lamannia previews are extended to content creators, including the wiki, but these are very intermittent (the last on record was the Epic Destiny revamp in U51) and appear to be unrelated to account type.
