Anything that was previously Soulbound from a previous expansion (pets, mounts, gear, or otherwise) is now Bind on Equip and sellable.
What implications would this have on the economy and the game as a whole -- a net gain or net loss? Would it ruin the sense of prestige these old, Soulbound items still possess?
What is your take on this? Would you be for something of this nature or not?
Personally, I would be. I think it would appease all the people wishing they had older, unobtainable items by giving them an option to purchase it from an original owner. It would also drastically stimulate the economy (enormous gold sinks, tons of gold exchanging hands, etc.), and most importantly it would make completing previous expansion content such an incentive when there's now innumerable new items of value to sell that you couldn't previously. While there is definitely a sense of prestige lost, I think all the positives boons this would bring outweigh it. And I speak as someone with many of those prestigious items.
