Bound to Account Vs. Bound to Character?

[Lord_Winn]

Which one are you allowed to pass from one character to another? Why do they have bound to account. In Sharn's Syndicate, it seems like all the end rewards are the type bound to account.

[Lorien_the_First_One]

Bound to Account can be passed to other characters through your shared bank.

Everything used to be BtC but they changed most non-raid items to BtA when they introduced the shared bank.

Is that not pretty self-explanatory just in the name?


Why do they have bound to account.

So that items you are likely to outgrow can be passed to alts and mules.

[dominp]

yeah like stated above its pretty obvious which is which.

Also the only way to move bound to account items from one character to another is through the shared bank. They can not be mailed.

Interestingly the "Dream Spitter" from the Reaver Raid is BtA, which if you follow logic...gianthold is the next pack to get the "Epic Treatment". With this in mind I wonder if eventually all/more raid loot will be BtA.

Also all end reward loot EXCEPT the "Voice of the Master" and "Mantle of the Worldshaper" is BtA. So if you have a higher level job, feel free to farm Tangleroot/D's Tomb/Sharn for nice twink items. I can roll through the whole D's Tomb in about 15 minutes on my FVS and I did this to get those neat Holy Handwraps and the low level STR (Linen Handwraps). Also Tangleroot is a nice way to get that Gemstone for SP or very low min-level +3 Stat items. Once I get the desired item I pass to my low-levels.

The great thing about this loot too is that it can not be permanently damaged. So you can use this stuff for many lowbies.

As mentioned before me "Voice of the Master" (+5% exp) from Delera's is BtC. Why? To keep people running Delera's more and more and actually force people to purchase the adventure pack if they got the trinket while using a Guest Pass. If it was BtA - people would keep sending the voice to their alts back and forth and Turbine would miss out on them purchasing the adventure pack.

logic fail?
they have voice = they bought pack.... pack is accountwide.

[r3dl4nce]

Well, if you want to level up fast, from 6 to 8-9, Delera is a must.

I believe you missed the part about aquiring the trinket on a Guess Pass.

If the trinket was account wide, a free player could, in theory, get a guest pass, aquire the trinket, and just swap it aroudn to their active characters for the XP bonus. Though that character woudl have to have shelled out for the shared bank. And if you can fford teh bank but not deleras... well... i frankly wouldn't understand that o_O

i'm blind. oeps. :p

[Zack77]

Yeah, but a competent group can run deleras in about 20-45 mins and get MASSIVE xp, so I don't get why they WOULDNT buy the pack, unless they were going 100% F2P.

Wow, paranoid much?
Force would be if Turbine kidnapped your dog and required you to buy Delara's to get it back.

Seriously, back away from the Red Bull.

Is this how Turbine entice you to spend over 1000 TP to buy a shared bank?

If it is then it worked.....one of the first things I bought on my premium account.

Nice +1 rep..... WAIT where is my dog?:confused:

TURBINE U DIDN'T!!!!! $#%@$%$ Now I will have to buy Delera's.

OH wait I'm VIP.... :rolleyes::p

New dreamspitters are BtA and have an additional unknown property to them. (Don't remember what it is called at the moment.)

I think you mean "encourage", since nothing forces you to get the Voice to be successful in this game. You know it didn't even exist until Gary died, half way through this game's history.

You could also go with the Cloak if you prefer to buy Therenal of course.

And what's wrong with Turbine putting stuff in packs that encourage you to actually buy those packs? They are a for profit company.

LOL the first thing I bought on my vip account was the option to add another 10 slots to the shared bank. :D
