Guild Wars 2

As title says,

I think these weapons deserve to be account bound just as the Armor and Weapons are in Fractals. These weapons are extremely hard to get and are very time consuming and stressful as well.

The Gifts to make these weapons are account bound but not the weapon itself?

These weapons may be just skins right now but when they get upgraded they will be the best weapons in this game, as they should be considering what they are. No other weapon will replace them.. but what will and does happen is people grow tired of the class they play (mainly due to it not getting fixed or being nerfed into oblivion that not even a crazy cat women and her cats will want to play it) and they will want to try out the other classes this game has to offer! but.. will have a huge rock block ahead of them as they will want to play that new class as their main and put all focus into that but at the same time not want to leave a character behind which is wielding their hard earned work, ie the greatest weapon in the game.

Sure, they can just start working on a new legendary.. but why? When it would be so easy to make the weapon they already have account bound and trade it to your new main character.

Please consider this, I see nothing wrong with it. It is still tied to the players account, its just not bound to one character anymore, but instead to all of them. Legendarys like Twilight, Predator, Bifrost etc can be used by many classes.

I totally agree with the idea you are stating right now because i have eternity on my warrior but i got so tired of the class and went to my gaurdian which i find more enjoyable to play right now and am stuck with the warrior having eternity

Colin stated in an interview that making Legendaries account bound is problematic, because it would result in all of the legendaries on the TP getting account bound as well. As in they would be account bound to the seller.

Ah, I forgot the part that they could be sold via TP.

Then I would suggest either completely remove the ability to sell them on TP and make them account bound OR put in an option to unbind them.

I had an idea, but am not sure how this would work xD But I’ll say it anyhow.

What if we could place a vendor NPC in the game that has all of the legendarys in it but they are labeled ‘Account Bound’ and you could trade in your Soulbound legendary for the ‘Account Bound’ version. That way, both sides are happy. You can still sell them on TP and the people that want to trade it between characters can use the NPC. (The only downfall to this would be the fact that you’d lose the previous Sigil you had in it, but that’s a small price to pay for a legendary weapon all your characters can use. Sigils are easy to get back, legendarys aren’t hehe)

Would this be a better suggestion and would it work? We would need a dev reply on this heh.

We really need account bound legendary weapons, because its must be some kind of player experience indicator. Not indicator of how much gold/real money player have.

Agreed, it’s taken me a lot of work across all my characters to get as close as i am now. I think it’d be fantastic if all the characters that help make it could weild it from time to time. I don’t think it would be that hard to make the items Account bound on equip. Or just make them unsellable. They are suppose to be legendary they should have to be earned anyway.

As long as it’s account bound on use
