Avatar Bound items

[non]

whats the general consensus on items bound to avatars?

personally i am against anything that i would have to out right buy or like the ark viceroy armor where you have to give items to a broker in exchange for item.

i dont like the idea of not being able to get any mu back even at a loss.

i would not be against bound items if they were the award for a mission chain or a quest or a holiday gift.


i guess the idea of paying more than tt for the item would be ok if i could then tt the item when done with it or when leaving the game. sort of a rental fee i guess is a way to look at it.

so i guess my stance is it depends on how it is implemented and how it would effect mu for similar items ingame.

anyways any thoughts? i know its been talked about else.

its ok for some mission rewards i think, where u dont spend much time and money to get them. only then.
if i have to buy things with MU to fill the mission req, or make a long hunt, its not so ok anymore

I don't like avatar-bound items.

Interesting that a new mentor reward is a 40% skill boost for 10 hours, and can't be traded.

agree - avatar bound items don't really fit into our game. the only thing that should be bound to your avatar is your reputation
