Should TREASURE be player TRADABLE/sellable??

This contradicts the yes vote. It isn't luck nor any of those other things if you can get the items from other players. Trade them if you want but it isn't the items that are precious. It is the stories you tell in how you obtained the items.

Holds onto their ruby from the Ruby Throne for no reason other than they want to.

I neither am for or against the collecting and selling of exotic treasure on an open free market world scale.

Treasure is just vendor price with an icon and few lines of text attached. Yes, some treasure would be awesome if actual decorative item as described. Too bad its just vendor trash without function..
That said some people do collect ridiculous stuff like white gear which should not drop white so definitely there would be a market for silly treasure.

Edit: I had this completely pointless thing banked in Wildstar. One of the choices for a side quest reward in Ellevar.

I found it funny and also good for trolling people bragging about their priced possessions in chat.

I have had several, green copies of "The Book of Erotic Stories" but have only kept one of them. They were from Dragon loot, if my memory serves me correctly.

Another green Treasure that I have kept is titled "Erotic Argonian Etchings". I have only found one, so presume it is quite rare. The title is rather ambiguous because Etchings could be taken to mean either illustrations, or an abode/living quarters.

How much do you think this Treasure would be worth @moleculardrugs ?

Yes, please make treasure an item tradable to other characters. I would gladly give up precious inventory space to carry these items along with my mythics just to flex my transmute crystals, luck, favor of the RNG Gods, and commitment to ESO treasure collecting. This also builds nicely with the antiquities skill line that can add a player + player element to it.

I'd like the option to buy or sell "treasure" items as it would help with some guild events and more items to sell isn't a bad thing as long as drop rates stay the same. It would most likely be a few people that would be interested in buying them but that could be any item in the game.

No, I don't enjoy treasure as much as the OP. I think the account-binding to any found treasure is a good thing for the game. It's such a good thing, I will probably also explain why it is a good thing in the comments instead of outright saying no to the OP's request.

There was that time I stole a large shipment of stuffed pony guar and laundered it with the intent of sending them to friends on New Life, only to discover that they were bound...

But other than that, I have no interest in trading these items.

There is literally no reason to sell treasures and the coding to make this happen....haha. ZOS will have free account transfers before this will ever see the light of day

That is so cool you found that. I have not encountered that doll yet but I would love it if we could collect little action figures or dolls and put them for display in our house or bind them to a book to create a momento

I love the idea of making these a furnishing; I've always thought they should have been other than just something to sell to the NPC merchant. Would be really cool I think if there was a display case that was made to showcase them in our homes, similar to the Bobblehead stand in Fallout.

these useless treasure items already take up inventory space (i even have an addon that auto marks anything "treasure" as junk to be auto sold to a merchant), this is like the number 1 inventory clogger when farming lockboxes

if someone is willing to pay more for it than the npc vendor, i would definitely consider actually selling it

to me, these treasure items are somewhat entertaining, but at the same time also totally worthless to me outside of the vendor value and not something i would keep

I'm not big on treasures and while some are amusing, I have no problem selling them to a vendor.

The best treasure, imho, is "1001 Remedies for Slaughterfish Bites Field Guide". You will need that in Cyrodiil to swim across the slaughterfish infested waters to reach the secret chambers beneath the IC island. It's a bit like the death area that is under Skyrim where the dead go and are met by an evil vampire who kills them again. If you walk off the edge, you will fall forever.

I made that up. It is mostly fictional. The part about Skyrim is true.

Omg I was going to say… a while back I carried this same book and jumped into Cyrodiil’s waters and did not make it 😅 that would be cool if it worked like that, having MISC. items that helped with gameplay in small ways

Don't really know how I want to vote on this one. I just would like to figure out what to do with all the maps I have laying around the house.

Sure, why not? I see no downsides to this.

Treasures and Thieving are my personal peeve in this game. They are a completely abandoned mechanic that has such awesome promise and must have required tons of work to implement. So sad.
