We recently received several unlock systems, including the wardrobe, the minis, the dyes…etc.

But there are some things that are tedious that i also wish were account bound:
-Crafts: i know it’s far fetched because characters can level through crafting and such, but if i had the option i’d make my crafts account wide so i don’t have to switch through my toons whenever i need to use the crafts (i have 400~425 all crafts)

-Waypoints: also a bit far fetched because of map completion, but it’s been 2 years now, and i really don’t want to traverse all of tyria to reach a certain location everytime i use a new character, i know it’s meant to be for exploration but it’s boring to have to walk to Orr to get the karma armor every time a new character needs it, just make the waypoints cumulative across the whole account.

-Skill points: now that is perfectly doable imo, use the same system as world exp and make all characters on an account share a single pool of skill points.

-Permanent services: such as permanent captain’s airship pass, permanent hairdresser, bank, black lion trader contracts and others, it’s just tedious to have to transfer these items between characters everytime you want to use them, just make a services tab in the inventory window that you can click, and select w/e service you want to use.

I completely agree on the permanent services. Its supposed to be an item of convenience but to us alt’o’holics its just a hassle.

I’d say the least they could do is at least make recipes unlock account-wide.

Especially since they keep adding recipes with every LS and I haven’t used almost a single one of them because I’m on the wrong character for them. But whenever I try:

I get a bunch but I forget to go check the other characters,.

When I remember to check, I forget to put the recipes in the bank.

Then I go back to the first character, put the recipes in the bank.

Then I go out to lunch, come back and forget what I was doing.

Then 2 weeks later I remember to get on the other characters and unlock the recipes

Then I realize I have even more new ones on my first character.

Then I run through the whole process again only to realize one of my other characters has a bunch he/she can’t use either.

I put all those in the bank only to find all but 1 were already unlocked.

Then I’m playing on my first character again and getting dropped recipes and I have no quick way to know which ones I’ve unlocked or not.

SO YES. Either crafting or recipes need to become account bound.

i had deleted my ranger, and after i deleted her i remembered that she had all the weaponsmith and huntsman celestial recipes, and back then these cost about 40~50g each (was before bazaar came back)

I doubt they’ll make crafts account bound cuz there’s a gem item to increase the number of simultaneous crafts on a single character.
