Yup. These are all-around good changes. Arguably, this should have been the way things were designed from the start, but regardless, it’s nice to see alts as being more viable now.

Well, there’s the account bound wxp everyone’s been saying was never going to come, even though they’d been told it was. Huzzah!

I’m underwhelmed by the account bound legendary and ascended gear though. I’m sure I’ll appreciate it eventually.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Even if they added this to Account-Bound, Soulbound is still something to make sense, many things are strictly locked to our char that could give us more freedom = less grind like madness.
For example even with exotics when we upgrade to ascended we could give the exotics to another char, at least we can still salvage.

I hope the next blog post remove restrictions from ascended gear, salvage? Trade? Mystic Forge Usage?! At least 1 of them we need.

To be honest, now they’re making legendaries account bound I don’t get why the skins should be in the wardrobe. It’ll only make everyone have legenadaries everywhere and when I see a legenadary I want to know it is in fact a legendary not a lvl 12 weapon transmuted to look like one. People are gonna be able to swap em around anyway now.

So still no making the specific dungeon runes/sigils account bound?
Which makes me wonder, what will happen to the items when we put a rune/sigil/infusions into the items? Are they going to still stay accountbound?

yet the change is useless unless they give us a less expensive way to Exchange equipment…

If you need to change character, going to bank, swapping, loading new character and rejoining will have you booted from any party. (5-10 minutes?).

A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

Ahh thanks!

I don’t think people who crafted multiple sets of ascended armor will have much to complain about. They are few to begin with, and you still need multiple sets for each character anyway so nothing has changed. It just allows you to give it to another character if you change builds on one character.

I am sad that legendary weapons can still be traded. I was really hoping they’d be made account bound on creation finally.

If legendary is account bound, you don’t need to transmute a lvl12 weapon with the legendary skin. Just take the legendary weapon instead…

This is excellent news. While the prices for legendaries are no doubt going to sky rocket for a while after this, the news certainly makes up for it. Great job Anet, especially for the WXP being account bound. Keep it up!

Now if only we could craft precursors to make up for the RNG game that holds so many people back, then I’m sure I (and many others) will be 100% sold.

So far most of these don’t feel like Features . Wardrobe (and maybe the ones from yesterdays lfg article) does, but most of these other changes don’t feel like “features” to me, they feel more like balance things, or things they could have just put in different releases.

Hard to say. Maybe over the long haul. The market might remain stable for a time, though. Supply is not likely to increase overnight. There might even be a small spike in demand for a time — if this change convinces people to purchase one who did not previously intend to.

This is the best thing they did since ascended gear came. This is what i wanted and i am extremely grateful.
I suppose there will be no feature to be able to give ascended armor from my warrior/guardian to my thief (something like transform from heavy to medium and then back if i need)
But i don’t complain. This is still great change and what is more important this is something we wanted, something we asked to have and we have it now.

If you have t3 human skin on ascended armor, I bet you can still swap the ascended around characters, but only your other human characters will be able to wear it.

I know… sad day

I’ve been waiting to make a hopefully much more necro suited legendary for a year now. I got my mastery and fortune gifts all set, and mats and money for whatever else they throw at me… but they just never seem to come. I feel like the new legendarys are the feature the most people are waiting on. I know I have about a dozen guild mates who are just in a holding pattern until they release them.

With ascended grade gear being account bound instead of soul bound on equip, and trasmutting an item soul binding a gear, what happens to ascended armor that we trasmute to other skins?

Can we still move them around or are we stuck with ascended armor skins if we want it to be account bound?

The dye change, the wardrobe, and the WXP I am very very happy with. The account binding of ascended/legendaries just leaves me disappointed that all the rest of my gear is still soulbound. It is a good change and a point in favor of finally making a legendary, but when i make a legendary I want to be able to pass the exotic it’s replacing on to one of my other alts.

I’m 99.9% sure that your level is account bound as well. So if you make a new character it will be level 400 and have the associated title.
