Veteran Rewards

Veteran Rewards are bonuses granted to accounts based on how long your account has been active. For every year the account has been active, you gain a veteran reward, up to fourteen rewards. No further rewards are planned.

Veteran rewards are per character and when you log in, if you have them available to apply, you'll get a message in your chat window. It is recommended that you pick the character(s) you plan on playing the most and are least likely to stop playing, before you accept the veteran reward.

You can claim the rewards on the number of characters that match your account time. So if you have five years on your account, you can claim the rewards 1st year through 5th year on five characters. If you delete one of the characters you claimed rewards on, you don't get that claim back.
