Q:

I was WvWing on my main character (100% core completion) while exploring HoT so got a large handful of Proofs of Heroics every couple of weeks. Recently I decided to dump my stash of Proofs of Heroics so they wouldn’t sit in my bank anymore.
Unfortunately I have 29 heroics bound to my main character that she can’t use. Is there a way (or will there be a way) that we can transfer these heroics over to a different character?
Most of my characters are specialized in what they are mastered in for WvW so she’ll still get heroics since she’s specialized for AC and Ballistas (good defense) and our server is small and has to defend to keep our points since we can’t GvG easily. But since I can’t respec my characters at will I can’t change this specialized mastery to another character until they finished hero points.
:( any answers/suggestions would be really appreciated since I don’t want to waste heroics until I get to a wvw rank that I don’t have to specialize characters anymore.

There’s always “a use” for proofs of heroics. What you are asking is why ANet has prevented us from using the proofs on alts, even if we earned them on our mains. Apparently, they have decided that all characters should earn their own hero points, regardless of any other inconveniences to us.

I don’t like this, since it’s inconsistent with how leveling working (all sorts of account-bound level up consumables) and also inconsistent with the trend (karma used to be soul-bound and now it’s account-bound).

However, from ANet’s point of view, the idea is that they want people to dedicate time into growing their characters. (Again, I don’t understand why it’s ok to level toons but not transfer proofs.)

I can see why they would want us to unlock them on the characters, but like in my post, there is a flaw when it comes to low wvw level players. To be truly affective for a small guild, I have to either be completely balanced and a master of nothing or have a mastery on one character.

:( but let’s be honest, a golem mastery character is NOT going to be played as often as a flame ram mastery which also isn’t played as often as a Cata character in these BLs.

It does feel inconsistent of them, though, I agree. It’d also be nice if there were ‘more’ uses for them. While superior are nice, I would much rather put the time into the guild hall to make the small guild stronger and so being able to buy some of the normal blueprints would be nice to get some upgrades done quicker. Or if I could convert them into badges of honor would be nice too for when I go on a badges spending spree to donate to larger wvw guilds when they have a tag.

But for /me/ just spending them on superior blueprints that my small havoc group can’t build (and they’re not as useful when everything is paper atm) makes them feel useless to me.
