Easy Idea To Decrease Grind

Vapirko

This seems like it would be easily implemented. Make all bop and boe sets tradable once, so essentially bind on trade, with a small group of friends, no more than 2, that are locked to your account.

Gear grind is pretty much the only real endgame left.

1) Most BoP sets are already tradeable with your group
2) Most BoE sets are cheap to get, exept like 2-3 sets that are rarely bought because of how rare they are (looking at you Spinner sharp swords)

so, 'BoT' would be kinda useless because it's already implemented in a way and it's not needed (imo).

Yeah but the extent of it is out of hand and even acknloweged by zos. There's pvp for endgame while you wait for new content to come out. Perhaps a better idea would be to have some crafting option that allows an item to be bind on trade. It would be fairly costly in resources to discourage everyone doing it all the time, but not so costly that it requires days of grinding.

Not everyone wants to PvP. I'd posit that a majority of players don't like PvP. I'd like a crafting option though. Gear should be accessible if you have the cash for it. More gold sinks are always a good thing.

BoE gear is already tradable. We do not need to restrict it to only once.

BoP gear is tradeable with anyone in the group when you got it with the exception of items we get where we cannot be grouped or the group is irrelevant. vMA and undaunted chests.

Basically Zos already added this and doubt they will go a step further.

Dungeon gear WAS BoE until 1T. So them going back to how it was is unlikely.

Not all dungeon gear was BoE. There were certain sets (like Arms of the Ancestors, Treasures of the Earth Forge, etc) that were BoP.

Well right. But OP is asking to go back to BoE, which isn't likely, since stuff was moved from BoE to BoP recently (now with the group trade ability for a bit).

Didn't even know that. Started the game up again after abandoning it way back in the beginning before I did much more than the main quests. What was their reasoning behind making dungeon gear bop?

I'm guessing they want people to run the dungeons to get the gear? I mean, each dungeon has a quest story and bosses with mechanics that are meant to teach you group play. They are fun to do.

And you can trade items within your group for 2 hours after you pick it up, so if someone else gets something you want, they can trade it.
