Request: Make it possible to hide/lock selected items from sell/deconstruct/research

There are some weapons and gear that I do not always have equipped but I would still very much like to keep and switch to when I talk to merchants or when I craft (because of the extraction/merchant gold bonuses that these items then provide).

I would suggest (if possible) that we get an extra option in the right click menu when clicking weapons or gear in the inventory that would be something along the line of; "hide this item from sell/deconstruct/research",

Then I never would accidentally destroy or vendor these items when I do not have them equipped on me. As it is now it is very easy to accidentally sell or destroy a piece that you did not intend to, when you have 3 different sets of gear to try keep track of.

I hope more people support this idea and that somebody who is able to make this happen will take note of this post.

Thank you for reading.

    seconded

    some form of "lock" to prevent accidental selling/destruction of non-equiped gear would be tremendously helpful

    I agree with this, other than wearing it, there is no passable way to prevent accidents (no undo).

    Yes, please. The deconstruction/research is so new to me that I have accidentally sold research weapons too.

    It's even worse with alts, since I will stick items in the bank for an alt, forget it, and deconstruct the item! Or I'll research an item that I MEANT to have an alt use for a while and deconstruct it later.

    Why not just ask for the whole material tab to be hidden? Would make it a lot easier too.

    Agreed. I'd love to see a way to filter items in my inventory vs in the bank while I'm deconstructing so I can just break down all the crap in my bags without having to scroll through all the stuff I'm saving in the bank to use at a higher level or to research.

    just mark your weapons or armour u don't want to sell as junk. that way if you come to a merchant and u click on ur armour or weapon tab they will not be there and you will not sell them.

    It is not perfect but it is a work around I use.

    Other games have this feature, I think GW2 does it.

    (because of the extraction/merchant gold bonuses that these items then provide).

    I agree that locking would be a nice feature, but I thought I should mention that wearing gear with those two traits does nothing. It only affects what you get from selling or deconstructing that piece of gear.

    Please add this!! Perhaps a mod can be made?
    The Champion System should have rewarded Champion Points based off of achievements and feats earned through excelling at end game content not grinding your life away vs mobs in order to stay competitive. This system is uncreative and is a great example of extremely lazy system design. Yes, you should be embarrassed

    I can't tell you how many times I have accidentally deconstructed an item. The frustration was too much, so i changed my gameplan and now, I don my fav gear and to Hell with rest. My alts level faster, I have more coin and I'm less stressed.

    I would love this feature. Though as lupusrex already said, Ornate and Intricate only apply to the item bearing the trait. As in that item sells for more gold or gives more IP when extracted. You get nothing from wearing it.

    However, I'd love to have this for those who do switch between different set pieces and/or carry pets and disguises they'd rather not sell by accident.

    As for the 'mark it as junk' suggestion. That is a really poor workaround. I actually use that function all the time to quickly sell things to a vendor. If I began marking things I wanted to keep as junk, they'd be gone from the buyback screen long before I realized what happened.

    This a thousand times! having to scroll through all my bank stuff (that's there for a reason) really slows down crafting. Huge QoL change for us avid crafters

    Yes, this ^
    Also, we need in our Inventory window a Armor & Weapons Set tab. Not to add such a function but to filter any extra equipment we wish to carry around with us. Right click and lock armor & weapons from decon but also "Mark to Equipment Set", something like that.

    Currently I'm using my Mark as Junk to sort the weapons I want to keep on me and not bank or decon. <groans loudly>

  • glasswalkers_04_ESO
    I agree with this as well. Or if thats to much of a coding issues can we at least get an icon to the left of the item name to denote banked vs carried in inventory?

    Yessssss! Thisssss!

    I have accidentally deconstructed SO MANY items I meant to save simply because I get into the "deconstruction rhythm" and plow through all the items.

    Being able to right click an item and having a "protected" or "locked" option and then not having those items show in the deconstruction tab would be great.

    Agreed, this would be most helpfull!
