Yes, you will. We have increased the maximum number of character slots available to subscribers to 40 per server. When you purchase a Start at Level 60 character you automatically receive a server slot unlock with it.
When you reach the new maximum of 40 characters per server you will no longer be able to purchase or use additional Start at Level 60 characters.
Note: If you’re a preferred player, the number of active characters you may have per server has been increased to 16. You cannot have more than 16 active characters on a server even with purchased unlocks or Start at 60 characters.

The correct number is indeed 16, thanks everyone for pointing this out.
