it would be helpful,kinda of sucks to have 4, 3+ tomes that are useless rotting in bank,on my 4 guys. _edit_ just 20th reward raid tomes.

Agreed but I don't think that is what the OP means. lol My guess is that he is referring to tomes that are BTC. If a tome is BTC and then we are able to retain our tomes on a TR, that pretty much makes those tomes nothing but vendor fodder. Are tomes used in crafting? Sorry, I haven't gotten into that yet.Pretty sure if you bound all peoples tomes to account the uprising and nerdrage would be incredible.
might be fun to watch...
I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. Doomsayers will say that this will end +4 tomes going up for roll...but honestly, I've never seen a +4 tome up for roll...
Pestilence: Wruntjunior ~ Dragonborn Fire Sorc (finished completionist project) // Wruntarrow ~ HW Archer // Youngwrunt ~ SWF SDK Bardbarian // Wruntstaff ~ Stick Melee (current tr project)
MajMal has already said they will not be retro-modifying the tomes as that is much more complex then it sounds. That includes changing the bound state of tomes.
My Own personal feeling is, I would must rather they did not mess with tomes on the eve of them modifying their future behavior, that is like asking, nay, begging! for something to get bugged.
They are allowing us to Keep Tomes upon TR. Lets try to be happy about that.
tome I have put up for roll:
2 x +4 INT
1 x +4 DEX
1 x +3 WIS
tomes I have been forced to eat on a character they were totally unsuitable for because they were a 20th reward
1 x +4 INT
tomes I have won from roll:
1 x +4 CHA
1 x +4 DEX
Does that mean I'd be ahead with this change? I guess so...
Greebles, Kyarane, Shandria, Grinhold, Alacya, Manufactured: Cannith
Epic demon queen ( EDQ2 ) tend to drop +3 BtA tomes, so run it as much as you want/can for BtA tomes.
OT: No point to make tome(s) non BtC since no one would ever put single +3 on roll ( reaver, vod, hox.... eDQ2 (dq can drop both BtC and BtA +3) eVelah) and break game kinda, think even +3 form end list would be unbound too ( well BtA ) which wouldn't be nice to existing one tome(s).
And with changes for keeping tomes i think that i won't see many tomes on roll in raids

BTC loot is supposed to encourage people to share raid loot. If you're taking them even though you have no use for them, perhaps you should consider sharing. Either way, I'd rather not mess up the mechanic that makes splitting raid loot so much more enjoyable in this game than in others.

With all changes there is someone who's not going to gain as much benefit.
I've you've been saving tomes for a future TR, remember you assumed you were going to lose them all anyway...

He didn't take them to be greedy. What he is saying is that he took them when they were BTC before the new TR mechanic that lets us keep our tomes.
I understand what he wants...it makes perfect sense. The new mechanic make his tomes that are BTC useless on toons that have already eaten those tomes.
But I also understand why people would be against this as it definitely *would* lower the instance of people putting tomes up for roll.
Yes,just 20-80th and so on end rewards... but i guess this idea is not so hot. should of explained it better was in a bit of a nerdrage,just saw how many 3+s i have for tr that i have already eaten and i dont even craft >< title should be please make all 20th-80th reward tomes Bta
They should certainly change future +2 Favor reward tomes to BTA though.
BTC tomes should become BTA at a minimum.
Even with that I'd still end up having a bunch of useless tomes unless I decide to crunch them for crafting or make yet another character.
Keeping tomes on a TR is going to put a LOT of tomes back into the world.
