wheres the post by the dev's saying that quest items will be non tradeable? Well, atleast the drops will be tradeable unlike WoW.
beta forums.
from blixtev:
We are using No Drop for a vaierty of reasons this expansion. Mainly because it requires you to do the content to earn the rewards. Some of the new content is very difficult and it will take a solid team of people operating together to beat it. This adds a subtle value to items that before anyone spamming in the Mining Outpost on Dantooine could aquire.
Most quest rewards are going to be no drop. If you get something you cant or do not want to use, it can either be displayed in a House you are the owner of, or you can sell it to a junk dealer if you do not want it clogging up inventory space. Most of the new loot/rewards can be sold off for credits to junk dealers.
better be for like 4 million imo

this is hands down the worst news yet, this will destroy any incentive i have for doing most of the content on mustafar.

quite frankly I'm suprised that this isn't creating a greater uproar on the items and loot forums.
Imagine these cases:
You do the quest on your rifleman. The reward for the one quest is a sword. Now you have a weapon you can't use. You can't give it to your friend/alt because its untradable, so its either something you delete or place in your house. Next you do another quest that gives you a rifle. Great you can use it, but you can never get another one!
and u cant slice that rifle if ur not smuggler

most loot drop weapons are non pup'able, non slicable.

Just cancelled ToOW on 2 accounts since they're not high level toons and since it's no trade for the loot, which I like to collect and resale the extras to other collectors. It's not necessary to get that many times the expansion now. I also like to giveto my toons what they could use from whatever everyone of them could quest for.
I guess we're seeing another great SOE move here.

I am all for that.Hey a cool looking sword is nice and all but it serves no purpose to me. I am guessing but pretty much anything you get there is gonna be pretty sweet and would be pointless to just have it hanging up on a wall. If they want to reward them for the quest by giving them something unique give them a bio linked madalion and the weapon, or give them a title that pertains to the quest. Like "***** survivor" or something. Not a badge but a title.
the purpose is to make everyone who wants any mustafa loot spend the 30$. nothing more.
