Im not sure if i have to set it to not auto-equip...i've never had to before, but apparently its doing that now. No prompting me to not-auto equip it, if i make it, its not tradable.
I was hoping to use the supplies i got from constantly fighting the teir 1 boss, and make a twisted snarble barb...i made it, and rushed myself down to the auction house....when i tried to put it up, its telling me that its bound to me...
Wasted nearly all my energy, and just about all my crowns ( its fun being at 100 crowns, and 40 energy again :c)
Worst part is, i don't want to use the snarble barb...i prefer my (although less starsl), enchanted 2 star weapon. So, in the hopes of possibly being refunded a tradable twisted snarble barb.....i posted this here xD

And for refrence- no, im not an idiot. I did NOT try to equip it. I didn't even check my invintory once i made it. I made it, and ran to he auction house. and i doubt hitting W,S,A, or D to run had anything to do with auto equiping..
Oh, and the best part, i only have the basic amount of weapon slots (2), one for my Enchanted sword, and one for my zapper. neither were unequiped.
So anyway, is there some way to make it tradable, or can i somehow get refunded one? or must i spend another week or so for my energy to go up, and slowly get back up to the ten thousands again?

You bought snarble barb from

You bought snarble barb from token trader for supplies you got from constantly fighting the tier 1 boss (Fromoungus fangs or how they are called).

Every item bought for tokens is automaticaly bound to you. You used bound item them to craft twisted snarble barb.

actually...

due to another idea i have, i might use the twisted snarble barb for lockdown....
But still, is this a glitch that's happened to others? or was it some sorta random fluke? i really hope it doesnt happen again :c

The snarble is a token reward. all token rewards are auto bound when you get them.
No matter what you did (lockdown/crafting) it was still bound anyways.

I wouldn't dump it unless you

I wouldn't dump it unless you have a flourish. Piercing swords are some of the best in the game and are useful against beasts & fiends (and gremlins if you don't have a shadow sword).

Anyways, if you don't want to waste more crowns in the future, I'd suggest looking at the Wiki (has a list of swords and stuff) and look at all the 5* items and figure out what you will eventually want. The zapper you have is a complete waste because it has no future. For ~1kcr you could buy an alchemer at the auction house and you'd have a better gun with a future.

I'm not sure what sword you are using because there are no swords with the name enchanted. As a basic setup for T2 & T1 play, I'd suggest a brandish and an elemental gun (alchemer is the easiest for someone just starting out).

He means has a UV. Enchanted

He means has a UV. Enchanted he probably took from Minecraft, which has a system similar to UVs when you place a weapon on an enchantment table, gives you a random bonus depending on how many points you spent on it.
