Arena Season 7 Gear Preview, Tradeable BOP items
News from MMO-Champion from the PTR: A preview of the graphics for the Arena Season 7 Gear for warlocks. Thread originally posted in the Den by Ihrumo and discussion can be found here. Also an interesting (and very useful) new feature similar to the opportunity you get to return purchased token/tier gear : on the PTR currently, you have a short period of time that any BOP items you pick up can be traded. Great for those times when a loot master accidentally gives your Turning Tide to that rogue who thought it would be clever to joke roll. More here Last edited by fizboz; June 29, 2009 at 02:03 PM.. |

Re: Arena Season 7 Gear Preview, Tradeable BOP items
There's already a thread on the PvP gear. The BoP trade thing could be very glitchy, depending how they implement it. If it's done by raid ID, then people could join and take loot later. Not to mention all the pallies buddies rolling on our tier token so if they win they can just trade it to the pally. Double rolls? meh.

Re: Arena Season 7 Gear Preview, Tradeable BOP items
I agree that it is already done. One time we even got a GM to give an item to a guildie not even in the raid . It just feels to me that making it easier will make it happen more frequently, as you have said. And yes, that tooltip says only people who were elligible, but they may implement it on a mechanic that they believe would do that, but may still find a glitch. Who hasn't read a faulty tooltip before? Either way, I'm interested to see this implemented. Could cause a lot less stress for GMs and having to wait on tickets.

Re: Arena Season 7 Gear Preview, Tradeable BOP items
Actually, I don't have a problem with this. You can't really put anything on the AH, but you can buy someones lucky roll off them. Why should gearing be totally up to a roll of the (virtual) dice? Every pug that I've ever been in where IDS drops, there's always someone who wants to bid for the winners roll (me included). Why shouldn't the winner be able to sell their winning roll to someone who wants it more and has the gold? |

Good - you can convince someone to give you shiny epic. (with gold, cry, etc.) Bad - people (especially in pugs) may roll on item only to sell it or to give it to friend.
