[QoL change] bank undaunted keys

Now since we can bank alliance points, tv stones and master vouchers, is there any reason not being able to bank keys as well?

✭The reason they won't allow it is probably because you could do the undaunted dailies on a low level toon and pass the keys on to your max level toon to get 160 CP gear.P.A.W.S. - Positively Against Wild Sasquatches - NO TO BIGFOOT!1 -

I dont understand. What's the issue with this? Is it easier for low level toons to do daily?0 -

Not really, but I guess they just don't want you to get 160 CP gear for doing quests on your low level alt. It was more of a problem when vet ranks were still around.P.A.W.S. - Positively Against Wild Sasquatches - NO TO BIGFOOT!0 -

This might have made sense back when we still had vet ranks. But it doesn't now. Remember that you need to be level 45 in order to do pledges. There is only a small 5-level window where you are able to do pledges as a pre-50 lowbie.
One Tamriel also removed the downscaling of dungeons using a lowbie. There simply is no advantage to pledging at lower levels (aside from getting an early start to your Undaunted leveling) because I'm usually wearing training gear a few levels behind at that point, unable to equip from my armory of nice trials gear.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Hmmmm.. I understood that it was because each time you use a key it also adds a little undaunted xp, so basically if you have a main sitting on a lot of keys then its a big boost to an alt account if you pass the keys over through the bank.
What you suggest doesnt seem worth it as my understanding (unless I'm missing something) is that Undaunted is unlocked at player level 45 which if you do have a main at cp 160+ it is'nt even worth switching the keys over as the lower level would in all probability only have the chance to farm ~ 3 keys per day for a day or so before hitting max level and inheriting the main accounts cp total.

This. They're essentially acting as a container which contents scale to your level and you cannot bank such containers.
Though now with One Tamriel there's less reason for that as not like low level mobs really exist anymore but that was the original idea at least.0 -

No, you don't level Undaunted by using keys. The Undaunted that you earn from completing pledges happens as a part of the quest turn-in.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU
