If you created a character on roleplaying and then decide to remake him/her. If you remake the character with the same name will you be able to use the items that were already customized for that chararacter?

( Customized weapons and armor )

What about the weapon?

if the weapon has been customized then no.

Customization makes it usable by only that particular character - it's linked through some hidden code we never see, not the name of the character - the name is displayed for reference purposes only.

Thus any armor you have can't ever be used by any other character (this is because all armor is always customized for the character that recieved it), even if they have the same name as the character which got the armor in the first place. Same goes with weapons, if they have been customized they can't be used by other characters - if the weapons haven't been customized however, then you can use them on other characters as the game considered them "free" for use by any character.

Think about it like a genetic coder. Only the person with the right genetic code can access the weapon.

Just because there are two John Smiths, doesnt mean John Smith B can pick up John Smith A's axe.
