Guild Wars 2

Ive made this post in acouple other sections in hope of getting a dev’s attention so i will also post it here. Currently legendary recipes have no description to state that they are soul bound and not account bound. Thus i purchased my first legendary recipe on my main who didnt have the craft. IT ended up the legendary recipe was soul bound and i coudlnt not transfer it. Please change the description or make it so legendary recipes are account bound so i dont lose the 10 gold i grinded out

All recipies for any craft, are soulbound and only gets “eaten” by the char that uses the recipie.

no there not i purchased the karma ones that are account bound which means all recipes are not soundbound

Did you post this in suggestions? At 10 gold, itd’ be worthit to level this character up to whatever craft it requires…yikes. On that note, I think what would solve it, is to be able to sell karma items BACK to the vendor. Just as books. I’ve accidentally bought two of a recipe, or 2 of a book, as there isn’t a confirmation. You cant sell back, or sell period karma recipes, and my second ‘warrior’ skills book was completely worthless to me

I think the training manuals are actually all the same, despite buying them from profession specific vendors. You can give them to alts.

Yea ive posted in suggestion recipes and crafting hoping ot get enough people to post about this 10 g is a heavy blow to take. If it was me misreadign it i woudl be semi ok with it but i triple checked and it never had a description stating it was soul bound im hoping they will refund or at least make it account bound.

ah thanks so much for your response. i look foward to seeing the change.

Agreed. They should be account bound. I also noticed this and felt the same way. I don’t know WHEN we can get a fix in for this, but I’ll try to get it into the queue.

How about Obsidian Shards? Will they be account bound too? Right now you have to farm all 1 million karma on a single character which hurts players who play with alts.

Of course.. the dynamic event cap cripples karma farming far more than obsidian shards do.

Thank you! I’ve been posting about this for a while now trying to get it noticed!

In the same fix, could you make the Dungeon rewards account-bound as well. They certainly should not be tradeable but to have to run the same dungeon with the same character several times seems unnecessarily restrictive. Since these items (or at least some of them) appear to be required for Legendary recipes it is simply further restrictions which in no way diminish the effort of the player to obtain the required items for the rewards (whether they be Legendary Weapons or Dungeon Armour pieces)

And since we are at it: An account-wide karma account? As an altoholic, it’ll take me (up to) 8 times longer to get the karma for the legendary…

The recipe is now account bound but i still cant train it on jewel crafter doesnt allow me to put it in his inventory and train it.
