Account Bound[edit]

So about the binding of this item. It's listed as account bound, but according to the API entry, it really isn't. So is this there just so people don't think they can trade it in a split nanosecond before it's immediately consumed, or is it an oversight? -Darqam 18:46, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

I'd imagine that "immediate" is sufficient to prevent trading. You're right that "immediate" is shown in a different position to the usual binding (flags) though. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 19:55, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
Yes, I put in the account bound simply for the sake of removing the TP in the infobox. I didn't use soulbound as that tends to make people anxious. I've done this for a few other "immediate" items, so not binding them seems to be the MO for Anet. G R E E N E R 20:10, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
Oh yeah, I guess putting that to not have it show the TP price is a good idea. Might be worth reproducing if we don't create a "immediate" type for item consumables (which I don't know if it's worth or not). -Darqam 20:42, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
Might be worth adding, that according to the API, we are now at 251 items with type "Immediate", so it is starting to be a somewhat significant amount. -Darqam 20:48, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
