Because it would put more value into gold. And it totally make no sense why some stuff are not bound while others are. Like why mini set are not bound while special ones are bound, and it would give room for ppl to get rid of multiple copies of mini during the first xmas trying to get baby quaggan mini. Or how scraps and tickets are bound while the skin are not.

Collectible minis, maybe…then people can trade for the ones they don’t have in their collection. But anything else, why? We have gold-to-gems, so by theory, you can already ‘purchase’ what you want with gold.

I’m sure it makes a very important gold sink, but I don’t feel like going through the logic process to verify it.

Except there are players who insist that certain rewards should only be attainable from doing certain content. Devs too. So those rewards that are only offered during for doing LS content is make account bound so players who don’t do that content can’t simply by themselves one. It would be like buying an Oscar or an Olympic Gold Medal.

Your example is extreme but I see your overall point.

OTOH, they make way too much stuff account/soul bound. Their logic on some things seems pretty random and unnecessary.

It’s 81 gold and 4 silver if you trade 1000 gems for gold. It’s 112 gold 85 silver if you trade gold for 1000 gems. That’s a difference of 31 gold and 81 silver.

It seems to me that this change would greatly benefit those that are willing to buy gems with cash as you would get more gold by selling gem store items on the TP. How much gold you make inevitably will be decided on by how many people choose to do this. Unless I’m missing something.

They made those things account bound as too many people were upset that they were soulbound. It makes sense really to have those things to be accessible by every toon on your account. What if you saw a mini, or skin or whatever, you liked but were on a different character? Youd have to log out, switch characters, log in, and buy it. It was kinda lame the other way. This way is fine and was done at the behest of the players at large. I dont think theyll change it back.
