TheHsN · April 2016

ZOS pls remove bound items and make every thing "Bind On Equip" Really many daily and dungeon quests all bounds and many other things same as too...MAke everything bind on Equip and let players decide what to do with their prices that they have earned lets us choose what to do with our prices that we achive....

I'm in favor of a healthy mix. I think some sets should be boe and some bop. I like the idea of having to earn the items myself. I don't think the best sets should be bop only either, I still like a mix.

What would be cool is a top tier set that that had a mix of both so you're not necessarily at the mercy of extreme RNG. For example, make the chest and another piece bop and the others boe.

As much as I hate bound items I feel like some items do need to be bound, namely monster sets and end end game items like the maelstrom weapons. However, I'd like to see a token system implemented for some of these more rng heavy sets where you would be able to choose the set and maybe the trait (mostly thinking of the sets that drop in wgt and icp). On the other hand all the orsinium sets need to be bind on equip, it feels so dirty to decon these set items that someone would love but I have no use for (like the purple v16 briar thorn ring I got as a magika dps).

I don't understand why a check for DLC ownership can't be coded into transactions, therefore allowing items to be traded/sold.

Seems possible.

/shrug

But overall, BoP doesn't bother me too much.

So, @OP, what do you with item sets that are only available through DLC purchase?

Well, if they do that then what use is there to buy stuffs from the vendor in cyrodiill ?

ZOS will never make DLC bound items bind on equip.
Those items are exclusive for players who have access to the DLC.
DLC bind on equip items=less profit for ZOS.
Many players buy DLCS only to get better equipment.
If they can buy all the items(the richer players) why bother buying the DLC ?

Other than DLC and certain quest items, it could be a nice idea to propose, but I highly doubt the devs will consider it.

They could have it so you can only equip the items if you have the dlc in your upgrades. Would that mean that anyone who has eso plus, obtains the items, equips then removes the eso plus subscription would keep the items??

Are bind on xxxx for each character or across the account?

For example if I complete vet maelstrom arena for the 1,000th time and get the weapon/trait combo I actually want on my stam dk whose optimised for pve, can I give that weapon to my mag nb whose optimised for pvp or do I have to run the arena 1,000 more times with my mag nb???
