I’m generally in favor of leaving wealth transfers to Adam Smith’s unseen hand: I’d be happier with fewer account-bound restrictions. So I do like the idea of a currency exchange. I also like changes that allow people to focus on the types of things they enjoy them most.
However, I don’t support this suggestion as it is currently outlined.
The original idea was that only those people who are able/willing to return to a dungeon would be able to display those armor or weapon sets, e.g. if you can’t kill Lupi, you don’t get Orrian Armor or Dragon’s Deep weapons. This suggestion would leave the game with very few items that recognize personal achievements. And I think that’s a bad thing.
Current exceptions are limited to event-earned minis, ascended weapons, and fractal weapons (which are further limited by chance). I don’t include skins available from lotteries, i.e. skins bought with BL Tickets.
John Smith: “you should kill monsters, because killing monsters is awesome.”
