  1. The problem: You just found a good-looking weapon/armor and you are using it on one of your characters in SPVP. Some time later you decide to start playing with another character, that uses the same weapon/armor so you have to deposit it, change character, withdraw it again, take another sigil/rune and put it in.
    And if you want to play 2 characters (like some matches with the first, some matches with the second) you have to keep swapping.
    This is very annoying and I personally (and I guess most of players out there) simply stopped caring about skins in SPVP, too much to bother around.
  2. The problem 2: You want to use dual weapons, like dual swords, dual daggers, dual pistols etc. and there is a skin that you like a lot. You have to obtain two skins then. But if one day you decide to stop using dual weapons, then only one skin can be deposited. The other skin, most probably, will be salvaged because it is a “space-taker” in the inventory. So if later you change your mind and want dual weapons back (or just using another character) you are missing the second weapon.
  • Solution to both problems: Make weapon, armor and backpack skins in SPVP working the same way as sigils, runes and jewels.
    It means that once you deposit the skin for the first time, then you can withdraw it unlimited times.

Before someone says “you want free items” I want to point out that they are not free items because you can pass ANY skin from a character to another one without paying any fee. So putting unlimited withdrawals will NOT mean free items, it will be just a solution to a very clunky process.

Or just let items stack in the pvp locker as they do in your bank… either way I agree with the sentiment.

  • Stacking will not help. If you buy a very expensive skin, like halloween’s shield (the one with black flames, that costs 300 gold), then you will have to move it from a character to another all the time, no one is going to buy more than one expensive skin.
  • Stacking won’t solve another problem: one-time skins, like Holographic Shatterer Wings.
  • And stacking will cause a problem: the deposit collectible function will deposit also the already owned skins, so you won’t have a “filter” to know what can be salvaged because you already have it.

I thought about stacking too but these reason changed my mind.
