This is a minor issue, but it greatly bothers me. During the Headstart, recipes bought from Karma merchants were account bound, which was great – I could buy a Weaponsmith recipe with a Sylvari character in the Brisban Wildlands and send it to my human character at Queensdale so she could actually craft it.
Now, when browsing Karma merchants there is no mention of the recipes being soulbound, but after buying them the recipe can only be used by the character who bought it. It’s very slightly disruptive to gameplay – “Nice, this Karma merchant is offering an Armorsmith recipe, I’ll log off this character, bring my other character who actually has Armorsmith here, and fill this Heart again so I can craft this thing”.
I guess this change was made in order to fix some kind of exploit, but does someone know exactly what happened? Are the Karma recipes soulbound for good, or is this a temporary thing?
