Guild Wars 2

Its kind of foolish that these runes are still soulbound on aquire, when the tokens are account bound.

You randomly get them from enemies and chests in the dungeon, but the chance that the charachter you happen to be on may have a use for them, is unlikely, so you have these supposedly elite runes, that would be excellent on a different charachter, and rarely drop, end up being only worth 2 silver to that charachter.

the fact that you can buy them with ACCOUNT bound tokens, invalidates any idea that you should have to play the dungeon with charachters who need a certain stat, it also makes it more likely that you will have people a one type in certain dungeons, like only the magic find hunters in Cadeuces manor, or condition damage types in ORR

im assuming its an oversight, regardless it needs to be changed

is very true although this idea has been stated many times and as far as i know no dev has responded

I wish they could do this and make it retroactive.

I would like them account bound. I often get runes on one character that is perfect for another and I don’t see why I can’t give it to said character.

Please Anet, make it account bound. aside from running dungeons, putting rare runes in the mystic forge sometimes results in exotic soul bound runes which would have been useful for my alts.

They shouldnt even be bound. I got a few superior runes/sigils worth more than 1 gold but because of soulbound i had to merchant them for 1 silver (1% sale!). An Anet reply said this isnt suposed to happen. Please fix this.
