Guild Wars 2

I crafted some jewelry as specified by a guildy but it won’t let me mail it to him now. It stills says bind on use so I don’t understand why I can’t.

This is a bad bug because it’s a huge waste of his money and time if I can mail it to him.

Tried to take screenshot but it won’t capture the hover pop-up. They are a full set of Ruby Jewelry with Beryl Jewels in them.

Ah yes, an old “classic”. Putting the jewels in bound them without saying so…

It does say so.

Attempting to place an upgrade into the upgrade slot of an item does display a big warning to you that doing so will make the item Soulbound to your character. So not much to do other than be sure to read pop-up warnings thoroughly in the future and not just skip over them and say yes without reading them.

The “bug” in this issue is that, after applying the upgrade and thus making it Soulbound, the info on the item doesn’t change from “Soulbound On Use” to showing it as now being “Soulbound”.

However, some have reported that, after applying the upgrade, the item is actually “Account Bound” at that point, and that the bug is that those words are not added to the item, and the warning should actually say it will make the item “Account Bound”. I have not tested this out myself, but it does make sense since, after being warned that applying an upgrade will make it soulbound to you, attempting to equip it with the upgrade applied gives you another warning saying that equipping it will make it soulbound to that character.

So, first warning should read:
“Applying this upgrade will cause the item to become bound to your account.”

Applying the upgrade should cause the item info to read:
Account Bound
Soulbound On use

Attempting to equip the upgraded, account bound item would give the warning:
“Equipping this account bound item will cause it to become soulbound.”

And then having equipped it, the info should read as:
Soulbound

However this doesn’t happen when you craft it and just use it with the default jewels that are put in during the crafting process.
