As much as I appreciate this update, I have to admit that my stomach dropped a little when I thought about how I spent the entire summer toiling away in Darkmoor to get Malistaire gear for my max wizards and fed so very many non-tradeable gear items (at that time) to my pets. Ugh!
I sympathize with you. you spent a ton of time doing that, however, from day one, many of us have asked for them to be bank sharable. I DIDNT do DM runs because they just take too long, now they're worth it again (from my perspective)
Eh, that was my first response. Then I realized I never got an off-school Tier 1 drop. The Tier 2 and Tier 3 gear is so bad, that the Crafted gear with Crowns boots my Balance and Storm will get there in will be superior. Even the Level 70 wand from Meow Archmage my Storm uses is better, and Balance has collected some gear from the Exalted Duels by going with Exalts instead of my Exalted Life.
Anything with a gem socketed in it will not be tradeable
From what I can tell, crafted decks are not tradeable either. That said, all mine have been upgraded to have a socket which has a gem in it, so that confuses things a bit
Will have to look at death's gear because he has one deck I think he has upgraded but hasn't socketed anything in yet.
yeah, I expect that the Tier 1 is still not dropped off-school so Darkmoor will still be farmed for years, no big deal only the lower gear is dropped off-school and that wasn't logic to have it No-Trade anyway, it's just a little help to farm the Graveyard for the better version
by the way, the lower gear can also be dropped in chests while fishing in Darkmoor so that's not a rare, difficult drop to get ;+)
