Ok don´t understand anything lol about the global and server slot .
As a premium player or whatever ..

So I got those slots my characters are now locked till I spend those slots.
If I spend those slots are my characters unlocked .

Or do I have to spend those slots to unlock my character .
Or can I skip all that rubbishe by just buying VIP (so subcribing for 1 month+)

Can somebody explain why things are so complicated suddenly ?
So also have reward tiers token left , yeah I quit this game a long time ago .
So how does this all work , or can I just skip it with subscribing ?

I don't see a difference between those two sentences? To answer your question, though: Yes, freebie players only get a certain amount of characters that they can play. You must choose which ones you can play, and then you'll be stuck with those until you...
  1. Buy more slots
  2. Pay a subscription

You can skip all that, yes, but only so long as you continue paying the subscription and/or earn a vet award level high enough so as to unlock more slots.

Well, before, you couldn't play for free at all. Now you can, but you are limited.
