    Right now its around 6,000,000 silver per premium. Every minute you spend on an alt, is minute you do not spend on your main, meaning your main character progresses much more slowly if you are wasting hours on alts. This is a game where one character can do EVERYTHING, so if your whole point is to run two alts at extra $30/mth, just so you can make more in-game money, that is weak sauce. If your guild needs to have you run alts to guard multiple locations, that guild sucks and is near dead, they should be doing more recruiting. Either way, out of all MMO's I've played, and I started out in text based MUD's, this one really, really, really does NOT reward you for having alts as much as you lose by making your main weaker. Stick to one character and in couple months having that one character maxed in everything you might care about will far outweigh early boost by splitting them up.
    Also, ... 20 LP/day is NOTHING. You can blast through 1000 LP and not even finish T4. So 1000 LP on alt you barely play, ... waste of time. Thats 50 days, and $30 on one alt, so you can do what? Be weak T4 alt?

    About the Premium thing, it's only a bother because you need to get it 30 days ... but you keep the island once premium is over.

    one island max should pay easy for one account a day. You would have to make 360,000 silver for 30 days a total of 10,800,000 not counting crafting and farming raw resources on the side. If you run the market right it should be easy once you get a second account with a max island to then buy a 3 account. Plus you wont need the two other account only need the 3 islands and there focus point for the farms. So you would have 3 times the amount of silver for one character and be able to be always paying monthly free without cash. Also if you stop playing you will still be able to jump back in after like months of not playing.

    But you have to pay for premium 3times. I am not playing this game but planning to try. With paying like you said you get back and you have character full of learning points and without paying you have nothing. So it does not sound like encouraging to try if you are not planning to pay constantly.

    prem is not account wide that is my biggest prob. why spend 30 dollars a month for that? so for all characters i would need to spend 100 plus hours to make them viable or spend real money to buy tomes of insight just to have them be viable? i do not love the model for alts, i do love the game but for 5 dollars more i can play any other mmo and pay my monthly and have every character benefit from my sub. this requires 30 bucks a month plus farming for each toon? how is that ever worth it? and then not to mention why is it when i make a toon co owner it doesn't just give them access to everything to the island? sigh this game is amazing, its just the internal workings of giving rights is exhausting and should be fixed.
