Dev-Question: Signed Items (Crafted items)

[Warlock]

Dont buy it. Craft it yourself and you wont have to worry about it.

the same could be said for you...make a small club of the signed gear in-game and keep it to yourselves

[Shougun]

There should be a way to voluntary remove names. . but not involuntary like when selling stuff or trading.

[Sine]

I'm assuming the answer is no, and maybe it was addressed earlier in the thread, but what about items created before 2.0? Some of my melds are screaming for a signature.

[Felis]

I say keep the signature and give the buyers, who don't like the names, an item to delete the names after they bought it. Something like an eraser.

no placing your name on the item should be the voluntary part. there should be no removal of the name what so ever, that would defeat the whole purpose.

A blacksmith isn't going to waste his time signing every last common foot soldier's blade, a blacksmith will however sign items that mark a Milestone in design or rarity.

If we have to force others to see our work then:

All gatherers should be able to put their names on gathered items, and crafters have to include their name into the crafted item.

Any loot drops should be named as well. Dont want anyone to get confused on who got the shield first.

I am extremely aganist a forced vanity system, specially one that I cant ignore (and is biased to a particular set of classes - when all classes have their own work cut out for them). Go be vain somewhere else >.> (general statement, not directed exactly at the quote)

Did I read that you guys want to sign the gear that you craft? Well, currently in A Realm Reborn, names will automatically be placed on equipment after it has been crafted! Details such as whether or not the name will disappear when sold from a retainer, etc. has yet to be decided though.

Thats awesome news, was nothing better than popping that HQ and having your name on it!

Cant ignore? its Not like its Going to be highlighted in neon yellow and say i was created by "name" every time you pull it out. its going to be a little corner in the items stats page with a name you'll probably never even notice.

Either way, lets not be biased in favor. If you want to reward crafters for their work lets be vain for everyone and make everything auto signed on item creation (and unremoveable).

There are only a very very select few items that crafters make that are any comparative challenge - and most people dont have those anyways lol.

Gatherering / dungeon loots take more work then most crafting items.

I dont like the above system I described either, but eh if we must have vanity....

I look forward to having named equipment. I really liked this in FFXI.
