monster trophies and rare fishes not bankable anymore

WandaMey · August 2015

•Monster trophies now work more like fishing trophies: when you loot one, you automatically receive achievement credit, rather than having to use it as a separate action.

What is the point of this if these items are made backpack bound = non bankable?
what if i find 4 chattering skulls and 0 dwemer gyro on char A, and 4 gyros and 0 chattering skulls on char B?
Am I gonna be happy to be able to npc-sell them for 400 gold?

Wait, seriously? How on Earth are people supposed to complete collections and unlock the dyes without being able to move trophies among alts?!

They're bankable. It's just saying that before, you had to dig through your pack to fin the trophy, and "use" it for it to show as found in your collections achievement lists. Now you don't need to do that anymore; the second you pick it up, you collections list will update.

You can still bank them, and "use" them with one other alt. You just can't use the same trophy for all 8 of your chars; you can only get credit for the one who found it, and then the one who "uses" it.

ok, i went to IC, i fished, in IC, out of IC on PTS then i went to the bank and they are not bankable anymore (pc plateform here) or i wouldn't have posted. trophies are now ITEMTYPE_COLLECTIBLE, same as fishes and BOUND to BACKPACK bindtype. same as the rare fishes aka not bankable.

i still do hope it is unintended. but i'd like it to be confirmed.

did you try to bank them on PTS? i guess not. and thanks for the lesson, i had no idea how it still works on live server.

Presumably they did this to avoid you moving them to another character just to unlock them there. Something you can already do with your fish on live. Personally I think it sucks because I've purposely collected ANOTHER trophy just to have them in my bank and/or bag, I hope there will be an alternative like not having them trigger the achievements unless you actually looted them from a mob/fishing hole.

Kinda silly you no longer have to 'consume' the collectible yet are unable to move it around to wherever you wanna store it for whatever reason.
