Guild Wars 2

Well the title explains itself me thinks,i am pretty sure we all have that toon that never sees the light of day for whatever the reason,you dont like the race ,you are bored of x profession, you found a new main….

and you want to make use of all that shinie equipment and trinkets you have a hard (maybe not so hard )time getting, and now is collecting dust.

So my idea to anet is ,please, implement an UNBINDING KIT in game

-sell it on merchant for x gold with 250 charges like salvage kits.
-or make it with different components on the mystic toilet.
-or sell it on the gem store for a reasonable amount of gems.

Once you unbind a piece of equipment it goes to an account bound -soulbind on use state so it can not be sold,but can be used by any of your other toons of your account.

Please anet implement this soon (pretty please).

Thats all ,sorry for my bad english,hope it gets upvoted ,and anet take notice.

I agree 100% with this. As you level up and gain armor and weapons, and eventually replace those items with better ones, why not be able to hand them down to your other characters? Also helps you correct some mistakes of accidentally equipping an item on the wrong character. I’d pay 600-800 gems for 250 unbinding charges.

+1 !!

hell, i pay 200gems PER charge!

250 charges is way too many for only 600-800 gems. I think kim possible has the closer price of it. I would pay something like 100 gems for a single use, 800 gems for a ten charge unbind kit. That seems more in line with the gem store prices, also I think it needs to be a gem store item. Having that in the world wouldn’t be useful, I think.

Any unbind item would never be lower than at least 1600 gems each on my mind. (legendaries related)

That is a fair point, and one I didn’t think to include in my prior thoughts. Perhaps there would be restrictions on legendary items, or classes of unbind kits, much like the classes of different salvage kits? I don’t see the point in unbinding blues, and even greens once your magic find is high enough and/or you’re crafting comparable gear. So maybe it should only even work above that?

This process of taking soulbound armor from on character and binding them to another is currently possible with fine transmutation stones

It unbinds the physical bit of gear, or allows you to separate the transmuted item so you can have the same look and style? When I think of this, I’m thinking about maybe a greatsword that my Mesmer was using but I want to pass on to a younger Warrior on his way up the levels.

When I get home I’ll pm you how to do it

Okay many are interested so I’ll post here:

Required Items:
-2 Fine transmutation stones
-Soulbound item that you wish to make account bound
-Item of white quality (white text) of the same item class (e.g. if you’re unbinding an exotic greatsword, have a greatsword of white quality available)

Process:
Use the transmutation stone

-Place the item you want to be unbound (e.g. exotic Greatsword) in one window

-Place the white quality item of the same item class (e.g. white quality greatsword) in the second window

-Choose the skin of the item you want to be unbound (e.g. exotic greatsword)

-Choose the stats of the white quality item

Press okay.

You should now have an account bound, white quality version of the skin you wanted to unbind that can be placed in the bank for use on any applicable character.

Enjoy!

I don’t want a skin unbound, I want the original item unbound. So that greatsword with +20power and some cond. dmg, I want that exact sword, not one that looks like it (I made up those stats).
