Guild Wars 2

I play a lot on one character, which means that I ended up with a lot of siege plans on that character just from playing, doing the jump puzzle in the off minutes, and buying them up to support the team for when we needed them. However, because they’re soulbound, I’m stuck playing this same character pretty much forever if I want to support the team with my siege plans.

It would be awesome if ANet put forth the little bit of effort to make them account bound so that I can move them to my other characters, help the team, and get some diversity in my WvW life.

Thanks in advance for any consideration.

you can drop supply boxes and other may pick them up. sadly, the only way to move them

Yeah that’s true, but it’d be nice if we didn’t have to coordinate, waste multiple peoples’ time, and so forth just to achieve something that should be readily available.

I think siege weapons should stay soulbound, even though it would greatly benefit me if they changed to account bound.

My reason has to do with the jumping puzzles. If siege was account bound and not soulbound, then a server dominating the EB JP could just portal up alt after alt after alt and load up with at least 10 free siege weapons a day to transfer to their ‘main’ WvW character. This would give winning servers a huge advantage.

I realize that people can already do this, but at least they actually have to PLAY the alts who own the siege in order to use it. The way it is now, I may end up defending a keep on my main and run out of arrow carts. If I could transfer all my siege to my main, then he would have a stack of like 20 of them at almost all times.

BP can be account bound as soon as JP chests are account bound.

I totally agree.
If we account bind the siege, just make the JP chest account locked, open once / day. I know people who creates alts just to farm the puzzles. Delete the character and goes in again.

Having soulbound blueprints is just a pointless inconvenience. They are currently using about 35 bank slots.

It sure doesn’t stop me from getting a heap on all my alts as is. Also, some people just give their blueprints away to others when they get ported in the JP.

With the price of blueprints I could just buy as many as I want if I was going to run out. The main restriction on using them is supply, time to get supply, or just if I think they would be useful. I drop siege whenever I want to already.

Really? That is just a waste of time. However if they are having fun I don’t see the problem.
