Guild Wars 2

Title says it all.

I’ll second that.

I’ll third that.

support this idea

I support this also. This should go in the suggestion area though.

I support this!

Crystals, philosopher’s stones, no reason not to make them account bound.

I’ll eighth that.

agreed. these should be account wide.

I have quite a bit of my bank space taken up by these character bound items. It’d be great if I could just stack them instead of having 5 slots for each of the items.

I am also a big proponent of this happening.

yeah, this is great idea. It wouldn’t hurt anyone, since items you get from mystic forge with these are acount bound or not bound at all

This must be done.

First off: Please don’t necro threads.

Second off: I highly doubt this will happen, nor should it happen. There are too many easy Skill Points which would let players farm Crystals/Philosopher Stones. WvW has a few Commune places. Each starting area also has a few easy-access ones. Remember after launch in the Human starting area, in the mini-keep that was part of the intro? It used to have a Skill Point inside there by simply talking to an NPC. You could do that at level 2 (because finishing tutorial sets you to level 2), and proceed to buy a Philosopher Stone and use it. It would make Philosopher Stones and Crystals easier to get, something unnecessary in the current state of the game. You can get them from leveling up and dailies, which level you up.

You’re contributing to the necro-ing, buddy. Also, they’re talking about making them account bound? Why would farming them for yourself be an issue..? I think you’re confused.
Tbh I’ve done map completion twice that’s how I got my clovers. So, what you’re saying is pretty much already true. Stones and crystals are easy to get, it’s just rather annoying when you have stray stones that you can’t combine with other stacks, or that you have stacks across several characters that take up several inventory spaces/bank spaces. It’s more of an issue of convenience than making things “easier to get”.

I’m also in favor of this. I can understand weapons and armor being soulbound when equipped but there’s no point in making collectible items soulbound when accountbound just makes more sense.

there is nothing stopping you from doing it this way atm

You need 200 for the bloodstone shard and ~150 for the Mystic Clovers. Spamming new characters over and over would get super super boring.
