Making Untradeable items transferable?

    Not sure if this has been discussed already, but I was wondering if making untradeable items transferable to other characters in the same account (perhaps via storage) would be a good idea? I feel that it would be very convenient, such as being able to transfer a shiny rudolph nose to a future character or one of the 5 jack frost chairs that I have. Are there any cons to it? or other reasons that it's not being implemented?

    The whole point of those items are that they are supposed to he untradeable. I don't think we should make them tradeable, even via storage. The ability to get those prizes on that character is incentive to play it. Furthermore, the event cape is level 10, but I believe you have to be level 30 to do the quest. A zakum helmet is untradeable as well. People would be able to abuse this system to get these items on characters when they shouldn't.

    I also don't think everything should be convenient. I enjoy having to work for stuff on my characters despite how frustrating it can be at times (a reason why I'm being lazy about my zak prequests on one of my characters)

    I completely agree with @injeenious about not making untradeable items tradable.
    It'll be much to easy to abuse the system. People will start farming zakum helmets and other untradeables.

    @Shinixter The post is about making untradeable items transferable to characters in the same acc, not about making untradeable items tradeable. Next time please at least read the first sentence of the original post.

    @injeenious Those are some valid points, anyone else got some input?

    In the new source we will have the opportunity to allow certain items to be tradable within the account, whilst keeping untradable items untradable. In regards to items like Zakum helmets, HT pendants, we won't ever make them tradable/tradable within account.

    I used "farming" incorrectly, but it's still the same idea. It takes away the challenge of getting some items that are originally untradeable, when you can just get them all on one character.
    But I'm glad to know that z-helms, HT pendants and such, won't ever be tradeable within accounts.
