With all the heroes and such it would be very nice if customized weapons could be account wide.

no semi logical reason not to

Might as well do the armor as well, what else would you like.

1 all weapons are automatically customised to everyone in the entire game
2 armour too
3 All skills and elites are account wide too
4 same with missions and maps oh and titles oh and emotes from pvp

in case its not widely recognised this is sarcasm "look it up"

Also look up "customised" and thats not the same as my car is customised so only I can drive it.
Its customised so that a character can more effectivly use it, playing with someone elses tennis raquet or golf club would screw up your game but the person they are designed for uses them better.

Customizing for weapons is not equivalent in reasons as to why armors are customized. People would be much more likely to customize their items if they were able to recycle them for other heroes, a new character, whatever.

I'm lucky enough to never need to care because I play a single character, so I can customize anything I want without having to worry about what 100ish heroes will use or needing to remake.

Making the game better for the majority is never a bad thing. /signed

Wow nice way to be rude on a SUGGESTION.

I don't like the idea but ill just say /notsigned.

account-wide customization,eh?nope!
paying money to get something customized to your char thats alrdy customized(cept armour/HoM'd minis) maybe

bhavv · Oct 24, 2007, 08:51 PM // 20:51

Its a nice idea, but theres a simpler one.

Use bonus weapons on heroes.

i like the idea

Linksys · Oct 24, 2007, 09:35 PM // 21:35

I wouldn't mind this idea on weapons

Or have a consumable item that's used to un-customize a weapon.

I apologise
as you said I was rude but I have good cause to be a little exasperated.

There seem to be large numbers of people who are imo attempting to ruin the game.
Their basis for doing so seems to come from 2 basic ideas.

1 I am the player my characters do nothing I do everything therefore anything I achieve should be account wide.

Not so your characters are not you and although many things in the game are shared, Armour, customised weapons skills learned or map area explored are not.
The reasons are obvious and have been widely stated, a charcter is an individual with individual achievements.

2 many titles take a lot of boring tedious grind I want those titles to be made account wide.

So what if they are boring and tedious who said that every character you run must have every title, if you want them go get them as many times as you can stand it.

My view is different and I value it enough to defend it as best I can sometimes I get so overwelmed by the threads wanting illogical "in my view" changes that will affect me and change my game.

I have no problem with changes that affect the person that wants the change or for changes that will fix errors in the game etc.

I happen to run my characters as individuals one may be a drunk another may not be if you make things account wide you just forced me to have titles I do not want.
Sure I dont have to display them but I know I have them which affects my enjoyment to roleplay.

Weapons customised to each character are customised to that players heroes, well thats wrong too in my eyes so I don't use them.

I was sarcastic for which I am sorry and the use of customised weapons account wide will not affect me so go ahead and do it, I think its wrong and silly but if it amuses you or you need it go for it.

MercenaryKnight · Oct 24, 2007, 10:07 PM // 22:07

It would be nice for the destroyer weapons that you can display in your HoM. So that way you can customize them all for one char but still be able to let your monk use their wand, mesmer use theirs etc.

This would allow PvP created weapons with perfect stats to be spawned and used by PvE characters.

Biostem · Oct 24, 2007, 11:11 PM // 23:11

It seems to me the purpose of customizing weapons, other than the slight damage boost, is to take them out of circulation.

By throwing you a bone, (the bonus damage), the devs also ensure that you have to find another weapon for your future characters.

By having to continue to play to get another uber weapon for your next character, they keep people playing.

You have to make a decision - get the bonus damage OR have the weapon be portable between characters. It seems a fair trade off to me, and it's one of the reasons I do not customize weapons.

If they called it "soul bound" to indicate a weapon was attached to a particular character, would it makes things seem better? There seems to be some confusion between the term used (customized) and the effect (locked to only 1 character).

Mister O · Oct 25, 2007, 02:11 AM // 02:11

An idea after I read the post:

Customized weapons can be used by characters of the same account. However, 20% bonus damage only applies to the character who customized that weapon, while penalty applies to all other characters, say damage dealt reduced by 40%.

Red Sonya · Oct 25, 2007, 02:45 AM // 02:45

/not signed Not needed Not required just another attempt at an easy path instead of playing the game as it is designed.

VinnyRidira · Oct 25, 2007, 11:50 AM // 11:50

Originally there were not heroes when the customized weapons was devised. Just as minipets are allowed to be dedicated instead of customized, it would be nice if the same existed for weapons. You do not customize focus items only main weapons.

When Koss uses a sword customized for Vinny it still does 20% extra damage even though it does not say customized for Koss. So if you are objecting that customization should only be for the named char then this example denies and defies your logic.

I agree that PvP weapons are not available in PvE. Just mark them as PvP only weapons - finished.
