Why exactly?

    Because else you could gather keys on low level alts and collect v16 shoulders on your main.

    Need to be VR1 to be able to do Vet dungeons.. and you get battle levelled to VR16 now... not sure if "farming" with a low level would be easier.

    No, you only get battle leveled if you use LFG tool, and still your drops are your own level. Keys have always been unbankable.

    Yeah I know they've always been unbankable.. was just wondering why. It's kind of annoying doing a pledge on an alt and not being able to use the key on a toon that can actually make use of it... pointless spending them on sub VR16 toons.

    Didn't know the VR16 bump was only with LFG now. Guess that's why nobody is using it for undaunted pledges :smile:

    Well I've been making the best of it and hoarding keys on my toons as I level them, then I open all chests at max level at once. It's much better than opening one per day, you get the impression that the RNG is top, cause you're bound to get so many shoulders :)

    I do the same, hitting rank 16 is a little like Christmas with all the chest opening:).

    ONLY if you use the damn LFG tool!? What the heck so I can't run with a guildmate or friend that has a level difference without one of us loosing out! I understand encouraging more random play but this is a bit ridiculous. Either battle level the area or don't don't make stuff battle level only if you...

    You can queue up while grouped with that guildmate / friend.

    By doing it that way they give people options. You can choose to do a battle leveled group by using the LFG tool (and yes, you can start the group with a friend or two and then queue in the tool for the remainder of the group), or you can choose to do manual invites to form the group, and then have the dungeon scale to whoever you want to make the leader. That way, if it's a tough dungeon and you're not confident in being able to complete it scaled to VR16 with the battle leveling, you can make a VR1 or whatever the group leader, and complete it much more easily.

    Giving people options is a good thing.

    People just hold the keys in their alts' personal inventory until they reach v16.

    It honestly makes no sense whatsoever. Let us bank them and use them as we see fit.
