Running 2 game clients ?

I searched, found multiple threads regarding it that say it is OK but i am unable to find an answer from an actual GGG employee, mostly just other forum members.

1- are you allowed to run 2 game clients on one pc? i understand no programs to control multiple at the same time are permitted, thats not what i intend to use it for.
2- do they have to login with separate accounts?
3- if i just use this other account as my trading character so i dont have to leave my maps and lose portals *i run 100% deli and i usually use 3-4 portals* - will it be flagged as a trade bot or something? I literally won't be doing anything else on this account but trading and maybe crafting.

Thank you, I am just looking for clarification, i really dont want to get my account banned, ive been playing poe for 10 years and have hundreds if not more dollars invested in of stash tabs and MTX

Thank you!

Hey there,

Our policy on running multiple accounts at once is as follows:

• No more than 2 clients can be run at the same time on one computer.

• Anything more will need to be run on a separate PC in the room (i.e laptop on the side)

• ‘VMWare' and other types of emulators for running more than 2 clients on a PC is not okay.

• Absolutely no input mirroring allowed; each PC needs to be self-contained with its own mouse/keyboard etc inputs.
Thank you for the prompt response.

2- do they have to login with separate accounts?
You will need to login with separate accounts for each Path of Exile client you're running. Please note, no more than 2 clients can be run at the same time on one computer.
