Okay, guys, I just literally nearly had a heart attack, god damn it.


So I have used this Merge to add my Steam account to current profile (the one I use right now). The problem was that my old PoE 1 account was also attached to my Steam account and I got exactly the same message as OP. And I bought PoE 2 and played PoE 2 exclusively on Xbox.


So I have merged them, and after starting PoE 2 on Xbox all of a sudden all my characters and MTXs were gone completely! I thought I have legit bricked my account or something lol.


So I found this Reddit thread:

What it says:

"

For anyone with this issue: Try running through the quick intro tutorial section until you get to the first settlement. Then logout and back in. I was able to re-choose sub accounts after it was done forcing character creation

So I did exactly that:

1. Created a Sorc on this empty account to quickly zoom through first area;

2. Killed Miller;

3. Got into settlement and completed first quest;

4. Logged-out to character selection;

5. Then pressed 'B' to logout again;

6. Then logged back-in, and now I have the drop-down option to select my sub-account on character selection screen by pressing Right stick.


God damn it, it was intense lol.

That's great but doesn't really help when everything is on the wrong account
