So are all the minis account bound?
They are all account bound. Selling the ingredients (minus the cogs which are also account bound) is pretty profitable though.
This is something I began looking into once I learned I couldn’t craft all 5 minis using my previously earned toy frames. Non-collecting guild members would have helped me get the others by making the ones I still needed themselves and giving them to me, but alas, that is not possible.
Why is a.net making ALOT of things account / soulbound? It seems to me it just makes the AWESOME open market setup this mmo has and turning a 180 and telling us what we can and cannot sell.
Sometimes guildwars (In my opinion) seems a little to childish or geared towards younger female players.
Ex. The mini’s all look sort of “cute” i would like a mini that made sence THEN i possibly wouldn’t mind them being account bound, like for example, im in a pirate clan called ahoy, now my character is a guardian in heavy armor, if you looked at him you wouldn’t think hes a pirate at all. Anyway somthing like a pelican / eagle / owl that would follow you and possibly land on your shoulder would fit the lore and aesthetic of a guardian warrior who is a stone cold killer and sort of a fanatic that uses an owl to scout ahead.
Basicly i feal gw2 lacts some immersion in order to open up to a younger / girlier audience. Which is fine for the most part, just dont over do it, give us fans of a more dark rpg experince a chance also, perhaps for a necro give him a zombie that is on a leash that is chain that connects to his belt (like the walking deads ’ michone) i know thats not an original idea, but THATS something i know the more mature players would like.
(When i say mature i don’t mean people who like little plushy dolls following them around immature, just the fact that having a mini human being or a mini doll follow you around breaks immersion, seeing one of the most powerful cut throat assasins with a DOLL PLUSHY QUAGAN FOLLOWING him around.
How bout a wolf mini, would be similair to ranger pets i know, but just for looks AND it would ADD to immersion instead of breaking it.
I hope someone understands what im trying to say, i want more gw2 stuff that makes sence with the lore, and i hope they can make the lore in gw2 more polarized and apparent.
Yep they are account bound, does the trader for ugly wintersday gifts also sell the components for the mini’s, I need some glue for a third one, and I didn’t check if the trader sells that stuff besides the frames.
