Suggestion, unbound Leg items with EP

If it's a fairly sizeable EP cost I feel it would be fine.

 

Like that suggestion.

 

This would be good if you can strike a middle ground somehow - You can still move the unbound gear between civilisations, but you cannot sell them on the market or in trade or through the mail or whatever as a countermeasure. At the same time, I think if such a feature could exist, it already would have been implemented into the game. At the moment I only see equipment that can be equipped and sold, or cannot - no middle ground, so there might have to be some technical work behind the scenes.

 

No less than 5k ep. if you want to unbound then you better be paying months worth of VoK and Clusium

 

(stugan deleted his necro post above and reposted it lol)

Why would you not need one of the best soldiers gear pieces on a civ that's been out less than a week but need it on civs you've had for 3-7 years? Surely they're all at 800+ gearscore. And why is it bound? Did you equip it then realise you didn't want it?

Jeinx was right about this at the time. It would have to be 1000EP or even more to not ruin the value of everything other than the bahram items.

Elassi's suggestion about being able to utilise your vault for bound gear, just not be able to trade or mail would be less dangerous for the economy though and achieve all the things you should want to be able to unbind for. Even still, it would have to be at a big cost and/or be a timed consumable type of add-on to the item otherwise you only need the gear for one civ give or take a few bits, to flesh out all of them, forever, if you're a true min-maxer.

 

I had so much gear and advisors stored up for India my vault was full and at least 1 25 slot in each civ. I didn't know what to keep , now I have my Indians at 40 and I saw just how much I didn't need LoL
Now I have loads of leg mats waiting for the right recipes
BTW looking forward to a PVP vid with you working India - there's a little bit of norse , little bit of gyp and some interesting ways to use the Civ
let's see it Ard

 

Coming soon, should hit 40 tonight from either pvp or quests then start playing all civs pvp with mostly Indians for a week or two, then back to playing them like any other civ BUT I will be doing a fair bit of Indian PvE too of course

Sorry for no youtube stuff yet, uploading a backlog of games I did as Babylonian in PvE just before the new civ release

 

I already hit 40 on Indians 1.5 days ago heh heh tee hee - maybe I should give some tips from a pommy B'stard ???
But looking forward to the vids

 

Honestly I think the game really could use account bound gear instead of everything either being soulbound or tradeable. But I would think if that was possible (without too much development resources), then it would have already been implemented by now. I definitely would love having the ability of making gear account bound instead of soulbound though for ep, so I can test valuable things like King Minos shields on other civs.
