Motifs

Cazzy

I'd like to see them shared across my account. I end up using one making the armour for everybody then banking it for my other characters, so it's technically already shared. Would just be easier if I could access it more conveniently. Thoughts?

I don't mind really. They screwed me over once you could buy Dwemer book in one hit from the Crown Store.
On a side note @Cazzy - and I'm not a stalker - but do you work for a well know sports brand/trainer maker?

I don't, no. I own my own gaming company

I doubt that this will change due to achievements, hireling mails etc being tied to each character.

Once you get over the hump and have a character or characters that can fulfill all your crafting needs, life gets MUCH easier.
Yes it can be a pain doing the log in/out and bank dance, but in the long haul I actually get to spend more time playing the game on my newer characters, rather than worrying about maxing out each craft.

How'd you manage that? Motifs are destroyed on use. Or are you referring to banking the gear? In which case, that's pretty much the same as trading with another player for the items.

I'm not sure if having it available for all characters is necessary; you don't really need it to be since you can craft for any of your characters. All other skills and books are also character-bound, so in that respect it would be inconsistent. And yet if it was treated as an unlock, like mounts, then it would just make crafting for your other characters that much easier without it giving a big advantage (as they would still need to get the skills up, find the items, and learn the traits), so just having the motifs shared doesn't seem like that much of a problem...

Yeah I meant banking the gear. It was more because I was tired of logging in and out, breaking my immersion
