    Flowers and boxes

    Why are the flowers bound but once you get the flower box, you can give them to everyone?


    plus others

    Same reason the festival tickets aren't bound and you can give/mail them too.

    Answer: Someone rolled a die!
    1 & 2 : Bound on Acquire (Character)
    3 & 4: Bound on Acquire (Account)
    5 & 6: Not Bound at all


    Really, that is my best guess.

    I guess it has to do with the amount of flowers you can collect within one hour. To prevent the flowers from stuffing your bags they go right into the barter wallet (if you have any).

    Flowers go into Advanced barter vallet, if you have bought it. If not, they go to the bags.

    Thank you, Turbine, for listening and giving us an opt-out of FE! Good work!

    Yes, I know. But in order to get them into the barter wallet (if you have any), they need to be bound, that was my point. But having pondered my first post myself, I think (if I remember correctly) the flowers had been bound even before the introduction of that wallet. That would make my barter-wallet-theory obsolete anyway.

    Another reason could be: If unbound, gamers would be able to collect huge amounts of them to sell on AH, even after the event (when there is no more flower-barterer).

    But probably Ranilin is right

    They want you trading and selling housing items and cosmetics, not a chance at the horse.

    But you can sell/trade/give away a box. In fact it is better if I give you a box as it can be opened at any time - the flowers must be bartered and that is limited in timeframe.

    So why not flowers? Flowers are less convenient than a box.

    Why do people make threads like this? Make a big enough deal about the boxes not being bound and guess what Turbine will do?

    THEY WILL MAKE THE BOXES BOUND TOO!
