Daddicus.6128 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I have both account-bound and non-account-bound versions of both the adventurer's spectacles and scarves. But, I don't know where I got them.Can anybody explain where the different boundedness comes from?(The wiki has no information about the non-bound versions, so I'm asking this so I can update the wiki with some notes on it.)

Daddicus.6128 Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 Yeah, I've been there. The pages it links to (and that one) don't mention account-bound versions at all. But, I have three, and I want to know how I got them and whether they still drop like that. Those six pages are the ones I'm going to update once I get the answer.

Daddicus.6128 Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 I should also say that I have three of the regular ones (soulbound on use, but tradeable), as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 They are tradeable when they drop. If you customize them, they become account bound.My guess: the ones you have got their stats reset in preparation for the standardization of choosy-stat gear, which would have left them account bound. That wouldn't be worth documenting on the wiki, because they don't drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddicus.6128 Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 I've never modified them. In fact, they all were rampager's (scarf) or cleric's (spectacles) when I got all three of them. (The non-bound ones were also rampager's and cleric's.)Also, the three account-bound ones are also "Soulbound on Use". (The three non-bound ones are also soulbound on use, but that's expected.)

Marhal.6579 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 If I'm not wrong, unlocking the skin of tradeable equipment make them account bound instead of soulbound right away. Might be what's happened in your case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddicus.6128 Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 Now that's a possiblity. I don't recall doing it, but it's been years since I received them.I'll wait to see if there are any other possibilities before marking yours as the answer.

Daddicus.6128 Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 OK, I just went an unlocked one of the skins, and sure enough it became account-bound. So, problem solved. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMND.1754 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Daddicus, were your actually account-bound when you unlocked it? Or did they become soul-bound? I have two on two different characters, and while they both say they are 'account bound, souldbound on use' and are presumably merely account-bound (as I added it to my wardrobe), I can't seem to actually move it to my character with leatherworking (it acts as if it were soulbound).
