Now first of all, don't get me wrong, i'm not proposing anything here, it's just a thought.

When you customize a weapon it is made especially to suit your char, giving it bonus damage. This also means that other people, even if you delete your character and then remake one with the exact same name, will not be able to wield it.

Now, in reality this would not be true. If, say you owned a blade and wanted it to be customized, the pommel would perhaps be made bigger to fit your hands, or maybe the blade itself made heavier. If you let someone else use this blade, they may not be able to use it AS WELL AS you.

Imagine that instead of not being able to even hold a weapon customized for another character, instead the effects are simply negated.

Examples:

Damage -20%
All bonuses are cancelled out
The req becomes higher
-15% attack speed
20% chance to miss with attacks

and other things.

So yeah, commence the /notsigned 's

Then WHY would you bother using it with another character? If you ask me this doesn't make sense...and obviously that's what your post is about...


/notsigned because it would be useless...

There are a few reasons, such as you customize a weapon, then you get a better one and you want to donate your old one which is OK to a newer player, but as I said, it's just a thought that wasn't really thought over :P

Yea...it wasn't thought over much at all, lol, no disrespect though. But...with the stats negated, any weapon that drops would be just as good, if not better
