So we actually sell our old equips that we're too cheap to unbind.

200 CE to unbind something that goes for 2k CR, not worth it imo.

its better if you make the equipment yourself. unbinding is optional and it's cost acts as deterrent to discourage its usage

Kind of the point...

Making it not-worth-it to sell common stuff is pretty much the entire purpose of unbinding costs, as near as I can tell. Increases demand for recipes, and makes it so that players who quit don't dump a bunch of high-value stuff onto other players and distort the economy.

I don't know if the current prices are perfect, but a half-off weekend is just dumb. Power surge weekends (kind of) work because you can only run so many levels in a weekend, but unbinding takes essentially zero time, so there's no practical limit to the amount of stuff you could unbind in a weekend except the amount you've saved up. That will just make it so that no one ever unbinds anything except during these weekends, and it gives the most benefit to players who are already rich.

Whatever price they charge for unbinding, it should be the same all the time.

How about a "everyone-gets-1-free-unbind-and-we-have-fun-with-whatever-strange-stuff-happens-in-the-auction-house-after-that"-weekend?
Definitely still not in my subjective top10 event-wishlist, but more acceptable than the original suggestion I guess?

I'd rather they just let us

I'd rather they just let us trash 4* and 5* items at the merchants for a medioker price.

What Dark Ritual?

I have a TON of 5* items sitting in my arsenal. If we had a half off Unbinding weekend, I would unbind every single one, then sell later for more.

This... Is way too overpowered. Powersurge weekend is enough. If anything, it would be that OOO would add more Powersurges.

Merchants Already Buy Bound Items

@Orangeo: "I'd rather they just let us trash 4* and 5* items at the merchants for a medioker price."

You feel that the current prices are not mediocre?
