Giving your new characters armor

Lets say you have a lvl 20 Warrior named Bob Johnson and he bought some armor from the Forge and put it into storage. Now could you delete Bob Johnson and make another character named Bob Johnson but a Monk instead then have them wear the Forge armor sence it is customized for Bob Johnson?

That's a good point. I was going to twink my new character who (without having thought of this plan) would have the same name as my old character. But this brings up an important question. (2 actually, since i can't play the game at the moment nor for a while)

1-Are all of your items customized to you? The armor too? I only ever customized the weapons, but are the armor pieces "custom made" for you?

2-Will Bob Johnson the second, with the same name, be the rightful heir of the late Bob Johnson the first?

1) All your armor is customized to your character when you purchase it. Weapons are only customized when you take them to the weapon crafter and pay him to customize it for you. By doing so, you receive the +20% damage bonus, but are unable to resell/give this weapon to another character since they will not be able to use it.

2) I am not able to confirm this one yet since I've still only rolled one character, but it just stands to reason that Bob Johnson II would not be able to use Bob Johnson I's equipment merely because they share(d) the same name. If that WERE able to, it seems that would be a bug.

Interesting.. never thought of that.. but I guess a Monk can't use a Warrior's armor anyway.. unless there's a bug... u may try to create a new warrior Bob Johnson to see if this works... anyhow, i guess u can salvage the armors and give your hier the materials instead.

No, it doesn't work. Even if you remade Bob Johnson into the same class, you would not be able to use the old armor. My sister tried it with her monk. Same class, same name, but couldn't use the armor.
