I’m just wondering when you get armor/weapons in fotm its account bound? this make no sense to me. is it because some of them are different stats than the armor you get elsewhere? i could understand if it was just trinkets but its all 80 exotic account bound. out of one i salvaged i got 1x thick leather section(8copper).

Would jewelers be able to sell anything if the fractals jewelry weren’t bound?

Because ArenaNet actually wants people to work for their Ascended gear instead of just flashing it on the TP and suddenly everyone with an economical advantage has one. In the same manner, I’m rather disappointed that they made Legendaries available for trade on the TP. Takes away the spirit when that holy grail of items can be bought because you likely manipulated the market or something and made out like a thief.

That said, I’d like to know if the duplicate Ascended rings in my bank are going to ever serve any purpose aside from taking up a bank slot.

I think he meant exotic armor and weapon from chest and not se ascended gear.

^This, obviously. As to why…it’s anybody’s guess… Even though the coagulated stuff being acc bound makes just as much sense…

> All ascended rings are account bound.
> Loot can be bound, can also be sellable. I didn’t notice for greens/blues, but this goes at least for both rares and exotics.
> Remember you can always salvage your gear for ecto, or stuff 4 of them in the forge, so you don’t have to NPC them.

That’s exactly what they are meant to be used as, forge fodders.

I think it’s a loot balance – FoTM drops more yellows than a dungeon, but a dungeon drops sellable exotics, cores and lodestones more often.
