Ascended armor/wpns can be freely shared between all characters but requires swapping it via bank/shared. There are many ways to acquire ascended from crafting to purchasing and rewards. Some exotic and lower gear is account bound but most is soulbound so it can't be transferred at all.
Arbitrage is often referred to as “flipping”. It is the act of buying an item cheaply, then immediately selling it at a higher price. It is a source of potentially unlimited income, at the cost of being potentially time-consuming. The challenge is finding good markets and spending the time to exploit them effectively.
@LordRhyth.1365 said:I've spent the last week and a half (on and off) farming these things. I need approximately 4,500 total and I'm not even halfway there. I'm a student who doesn't have a dozen hours a day to work towards these things and the fact that the trinkets and rings with stats that can only be acquired through ETCs take THOUSANDS of contracts to purchase is absolutely infuriating.Those are fantastic reasons from a player perspective. Controlling inflation benefits me as a player. Keeping trading locked to the TP means lower prices overall. Reducing the demand for GM attention due to scams means lower wait times for support issues. In every way the current system is better for players. 11. 8.
