I mean seriously, some people don't care about their zrank and the drops, why not let them sell the keys and make some money out of it ? Making the zkeys untradable would piss off people, nothing else.

They were originally intended as a pvp reward and should be that way imo.

If you make Z-Keys untradable, there's no need to.

i think they should offer more things for faction points rewards not keys or stuff strictly for PvP characters. I use faction for keys and skills for my heroes other than that its useless.

I think it would be great if you could buy items with faction points like the rewards u get for coins for Zquests.

You can buy all high end pve items (weapons & armors) on your pvp char with your factions, but prices are way OP. I really think that part of game would need some improve to attract people

edit : oops my bad, it's not faction but reward points, but the idea rest the same

Make all items untradable but instead a part of the greater community's storage, give a monthly income provided by ANet, replace Prince Rurik with Prince Obama, socialism.

Yes, way too late now.
However you can change the XTH rewards to something else than Tournament Point rewards. Maybe Kurzick/Luxon faction depending on your alignment.

Commerce aside, people who want the title and dislike PvP shouldn't lose out. Guild Wars already has a nice system of making things available to those who don't PvP with a little extra hard work (i.e. Faction through vanquishing, farming money for keys, etc). Also, it is only PvP-based titles which come with special emotes, it doesn't seem fair to me that BOTH of them should be entirely exclusive to PvPers only, particularly when both titles are account-wide.

If you don't like free keys through predictions, complain about that, but not trading keys. If non-PvPers want to spend ludicrous amounts of money getting the Zaishen title, isn't that our prerogative? It doesn't hurt you, and it supplies revenue to people who prefer to PvP for money instead of farming in PvE.

one of the best ideas ever. /signed
That will restore economy a bit.
I do not see this ever implemented since people just care about free money.

make them tradeable but not able to count towards the title then (yeah I said it). If you obtain them without trading they count. Titles that are just gold sinks are stupid IMO.

hasnt this been suggested before? this is how z-keys should have come in the first place so that the emote actually has some relevance to a person's pvp prowess instead of everyone just buying them, lol. kinda too late now ;-)

You don't want the guessing the game to give out free keys is one thing, but banning trading keys is totally another. Someone who want's the title should be able to buy since they need a ton of keys, and someone who doesn't care about the title should be able to sell since they have no use for the key. Stopping trading is bad for both groups, so fail.

Really if Zkeys were untradable from the start... no big deal, now? Far too late, not that Anet usually isn't (far too late updating things).

/notsigned

As for all the people saying "lol, might as well make ecto untradable" and similar comments... sure, when Anet starts handing out 20-30+ free ectos per account every month. Seriously wtf?

lol no..?

If anything, nothing on GW should be untradable, I think zcoins being untradable is a stupid design decision. Something not being tradable messes with the economy.

Instead of heavy bags being at most, what, 50k? They're 50-100e or more? If people could just trade the coins, we wouldn't be in this situation that we're in now. But no, they want one single person to grind their butt off for one single item, and that inflates prices.

All making zkeys untradable would do is make it so only top GvG players are able to get anywhere decent zrank and leave everyone else down in the dirt.

Besides, Anet isn't gonna do this. They get money from people buying accounts for XTH, they change it so nobody gets zkeys, people stop buying accounts. That's not good business, and their bean counters like good business. Those are the guys that control decisions -- it's here to stay.

P.S. +1 to your fail attribute for this thread.

No offense, but it's too late to change them now. Not to mention it would be impossibly hard to get R12 on your own.
