Guild Wars 2

I suppose this is a suggestion and a question in one topic. What is up with the inconsistency of trophy items and some craftable items (cooking mats/products) being unvendorable? I really don’t get it.

The cynic in me says that this semi-useless clutter is intentionally designed to make people want to pay for extra bank and bag slots, but after reaching 80 and seeing the ease that large containers can be made that seems unlikely.

Here are my suggestions:

1) Make every item vendorable. Even 1c per item would be appreciated. If event items can’t be vendored they should be deleted upon renown heart completion and not appear in mobs’ loot tables after the heart is completed.

2) Make harvesting tools account bound and/or make them vendorable either at some prorated rate or 1c. The cost for them is fairly trivial but not being able to use them across all your characters seems pretty silly. Another possible option is buying some sort of item from a vendor that allows you to upgrade the harvesting tool to the next level similar to the upgrade process for jewels in jeweling.

Thanks!

i think my biggest gripe is with gathering tools. you move from tool tiers really fast, let the price of your old ones scale to the amount of uses.

I think the harvesting tools really should be account bound, not soul bound. And I agree that trophy and certain soul bound items should be vendorable.

I have deleted and remade some of my alts but still have those silly harvesting tools which I cannot use on any other character. Nor can I sell them to the vendor.

Trophy items are exchangeable until you complete the particular event, then they become trash items. If they were so valuable to be included in an event, then make them able to be sold to the vendor or npc who originally wanted them prior to event completion.

I have out-leveled many of my harvesting tools to the point I really don’t use them. But I could use them on an alt, if they were account bound.

I just don’t understand the restrictions in the game.
