Guild Wars 2

I read the last update release notes, especially "Weapons, armor, and trinkets that had a magic find stat combo have been flagged as account bound and will now allow double-clicking to permanently change the stat combo. ".

As I didn’t have time to play lately I got hundreds of items with magic find stats waiting to be picked from trading post. All of them were intended to be sold for some profit. To my surprise after selecting the new stats the item becomes soul bound.

My question is, how can I now sell all those items? They have no use to me and I can’t believe such a huge change would come unannounced so might be something that I didn’t figure out.

Thanks!

You can’t sell them. That was clear once they said they would be account bound. Making them soulbound after you select the stats isn’t helping, but they were already account bound and unsellable.

so all the work put in to finding them is a waste of time then, they should at least make them sell-able by a merchant for 5s/pp

I had the feeling these changes were well thought before the release. Having people now stuck with items forth 100 gold that can’t be sold is clearly not a fair change.

Yeah this is BS.

I bought like 50 named exotics right before the patch. I bought all exporers stats(power, precision, mf), because they said those would change to beserker. They also said that non-craftable (hence named) could be salvage for inscriptions, & would be added to the salvage tables. Which after salvaging 20 named exotics, i still havent seen one inscription.

I was under the assumption that already soulbound MF gear that ppl wear would allow you to choose a new stat, and that tradable exotics would auto change to what was announced. This would of made sense, and the way i read the announcement, I understood it this was how it was supposed to be.

I thought my items were bugged, untill i read this, because most of my named items have no stats, and i can’t sell them. I figured they forgot to change some of the stats of the named items to thier announced stats. Now i find out that it isn’t a bug it’s how they meant to implement them, which i must say is stupid. So i cant even sell them, they have no inscriptions (even though they are supposed to), i’m just stuck with them.

I might have misread the part about: Weapons, armor, and trinkets that had a magic find stat combo have been flagged as account bound. Regaurdless though, i do agree this isn’t a fair change

Heh. Personally I was quite surprised when the Tp returned a bunch of items I was flipping. Should have noticed they had MF stats on em ^^ Oh well. Dark matter globs hooooo.
