Glorious equipment are currently bound to the account. I have equips which no longer use but cannot lend, sell or trade to someone who does. It is difficult and expensive to farm the also-untradable KVM points and badges, making glorious equipment too great or unworthwhile an investment for most.

 

I propose that glorious equipment be made tradable. This will remove one of the barriers to WoE players trying certain new classes/builds: the unavailability of the glorious equipment's raw firepower, even for ready zeny.

Seconded.

 

I'd love to see how the market prices them as well.

Anything that can make core aspects of the game more accessible is a good thing in my opinion.

 

It might even generate more interest in playing in Battlegrounds for people to then sell the items after the fact.

I assume they'd be priced at 700m to 1b, which is the variable cost of trading OPBs for 2000 KvM Badges through Merry Badger.

They'd be much lower, because people would no longer need multiple weapons for multiple accounts. And the people that currently do have multiples will be dumping theirs onto the market. Both the value of OPBs and KVM weapons alike would drop.

I don't think you can make such a simple conversion. 100 Kafra Points has a wildly different value depending on which item you're trading, and a new means to obtain Glorious gear would only deflate their value as OPBs wouldn't be the way to go about it anymore.

Hope so! Although it'd be awful if the market was inundated with them and we experienced yet another power creep.

I used it as an example to prove that there's a disparity in value between items and currencies when those items are attainable through multiple methods.

 

Reset Stones are 6m or 100 KP.

HD Carnium or Bradium are 11m~ or 75KP.

 

My point was, if they became tradable, I highly doubt their zeny value would reflect the same zeny value as buying them through OPBs.

The few +14s there are will likely find their way back into the game, and into the hands of people who are already decked out in gods/mvps. They won't just be sitting on dead accounts anymore.

There are glorious items that are uniquely useful outside in PVM/MVP. Every serious MVP GX has a glorious Jamadhar or Bloody Roar. There is also the Lex Aterna for the Holy Avenger and ASPD/Reductions of the Ring to optimize for those fire/wind element MVPs. The suits set gives a 35% boost in HP too.
