I think Recipes need a new term for when they are unsellable/Tradable... The term "bound" suggests to weaker minds that they can be Unbound...
For lack of a better idea, I suggest the term "sealed"...
RE: Boss Items/Mats
"Cannot be dropped or traded". I've seen peeps Advertising to Buy the new Boss Mats via Zone. Either this is a carryover flub by OOO, or peeps aren't clear on the 'not tradable' part in the Info Box. Vets know full well that untradable means something CAN be put up for sale in the AH, but Noobs aren't clear on that until they find out, either by accident or asking about it. So "Can be sold in the AH" seems like an appropriate addition to the description...
Additionally, If we can Sell Token Mats in the AH - without unbinding - Why the heck can't we Trade them freely? What we do with what we earn is supposed to be our business, right?
And I wasn't aware that any Mat could be "dropped" - ever or any longer - but pehaps I'm just a babe-in-a-basket still, despite having played for a year now. I've tried "dropping" Mats, and it can't seem to be done. Not in Haven anyway(which makes perfect sense, I know). That suggests you can drop any droppable Mat down in the Clockworks, which makes no sense, because you can give away just about anything "droppable" to any Noob in Haven. And with the new Guild Treasury system, "dropping" unwanted Mats down in the Clockworks seems even more redundant...
Well, I'm off to try selling some Schemer Scraps via Zone, just to find out what the answer is. I expect to get set straight - or let in on the Trade secret - pretty quick...
Good, let's get rid of exorcism...
