are we able to craft for another player?

canghai · April 2014

in some mmos u can give the item u want to be upgraded/crafted to another player and they can do it for u

specificly i was wondering if some high level crafter can upgrade to legendary for u?

and before anyone says how it would ruin the point of crafting keep in mind to each their own and some players prefer doing something else rather than lvling crafting

Yes.

Syndy · April 2014

Yes you can give your gear to someone else to upgrade. Unless it is a bound Unique Item.

SadisticSavior · April 2014

As far as I know, there is no crafted gear in the game that is bound. So you can give away anything you can craft. For any reason or no reason at all.

@SadisticSavior

Yes some gear is bound. Mostly Uniques from "world bosses".

canghai · April 2014

so if i get a boss drop thats epic i can have someone upgrade it to legendary?

Syndy · April 2014

Yes, if it is not bound to you... Honestly I have only seen a handful of Bound items in the game.

+1 also not only for bound item, another problem is we can avoid scam that people will just simply take your item and leave

Loot received as rewards for quests often comes in the form of bound items, and gear converted to Imperial style by an Imperial Edition player becomes bound, but otherwise you can send items back and forth all you like.

Nothing you can CRAFT is bound. drops are a different thing.

OP did not specify, he asked if his gear could be upgraded. Nothing about only crafted gear. I answered the question.

And my @SadisticSavior post was before you edited your post to say only crafted gear.

canghai · April 2014

sorry for my noobness but would epic gear dropped by bosses/dungeons be bound?

Syndy · April 2014

I have did every group dungeon in the game, and every rare or above item I have gotten from a drop has not been bound. I have traded many swords and shields to our tank from bosses.

Hi Canghai,

As others have said, as long as the item is not bound, you should be able to hand it to a craftsperson you trust to improve the item.

Some bound items include:
Unique world boss drops.
Quest rewards once equipped.
World drop set bonus items once equipped (e.g. of the Warlock, of the Healer).
Crafted set bonus items once equipped (e.g. Twilight's Embrace, Hunding, etc.)
Imperial Edition converted items.

ok thanks a lot

canghai · April 2014

looks like im just going to focus on provisioning and alchemy and just have someone upgrade for me

As long as it's not bound it works fine. What I recommend is finding a friend or guild-mate working on a crafting type that you aren't. Then if either of you need stuff upgraded, just give the items to the other person to do it. Mutual benefit.

If you convert it to imperial it binds it.
