    Is there really no way to move single-bound items to a different character?

    So, basically the subject.

    At the time that I bought some of the character-bound items for my old character, I did not think I would ever make an alt for any reason; but now that I switched to a different character, I want the items that are bound to it, but it looks like it's permanent, which is actually preventing me from deleting my old character because I don't want to lose those items permanently. Has there ever been a case where the support team will move the items to your main character for you? Same account, I just want to get rid of my old character for good, but now without losing those Mogstation items. Am I just SoL right now?

    you're SoL, they're not going to move items you paid money for to another character when they could make money from you having to buy them again.

    Unfortunately no, when you buy them you should read the warning prior to purchase, they are forever bound to the character you select to receive the items.

    That is a shame. Welp, I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    To be fair, as I said in my original post, when I bought the items over a year ago, I was not expecting to have to make an alt. No biggie, though, just a simple question that has been answered now. Thanks.

    Depending on how much you spent on those items, the cheaper option might be to buy a name change and fantasia for your first character.

    Additionally, if you're also moving servers, you can get that name change for free if your current name is already taken on that server, which you can arrange by making an alt with the sane name first.

    It's more like I'm a bit OCD about characters I don't use anymore. I'm more or less wanting about 8 emotes and two sets of clothes. But it's all good, nothing I'm really going to be too bothered about. Worse case scenario, I'll just fantasia this character to viera and turn it into a crafter.

    Why you can fantasia and change your name so why delete it? You can even transfer to get away from some people if that is why you might want to delete your character. And relative to your question no you can't do it and with alts it's additionally frustrating that much of the mog stuff is bound to one character only so you have to pay multiple times if you want your alts to have the same item.

    It's the feeling of starting fresh. It's hard to explain but sometimes, you just want to apply a scorched earth tactic to something so you can completely forget about it.

    It's one of those weird brain things. I get it lol

If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.

    Yeah, this is basically the reason lmao. I'd switched characters months ago. I can deal with it, though, not a real big deal.
