Guild Wars 2

As far as I know Gift of Exploration is account bound, and one is needed for each legendary. So, how many legendaries you can make is directly linked to how many characters you get 100% map completion on. If the gift is account bound why isn’t the weapon?
Also as it says on the wiki, Legendary weapons are soulbound on use, so there is the possibility to sell legendary weapons if someone wanted too. If I’m wrong please correct me.

I don’t see why a change to account bound legendaries would stop revenue stream for the farmers, as far as I know Gift of Exploration is account bound, and one is needed for each legendary. So, how many legendaries you can have is directly linked to how many characters you get 100% map completion on.

I also don’t see how it would detract from its legendary status either, since it wouldn’t make it any easier to acquire. They require level 80 to wield, so you won’t see people running around a starting area with them.

Making legendaries account bound seems to me a very logical thing to do, it would allow players to create as many legendaries as they feel they want and not have to worry about which character it is linked to and just enjoy the epic piece of art that was created for you.
