this should definitely be implemented with the upcoming HoM update making it account wide. I do not want to pick and choose which characters get to permenently keep tormented weapons -_-. I want to be able to switch them around at my choosing.

I think its fine as it is (not signed or not-signed as it doesn't affect me).

This update should just add a big bolded red line of text to uncustomized weapons reading: "This weapon is not customized and only doing 83.3% damage."

I've got my 11 destroyer wpns and having them all on my ranger sucks... being able to use on other characters makes sense... change to dedicated to account ftw !

Totally for this. maxed out my hall with destroyer weapons but my ele had to give up her staff..if hall is gonna be account based so meaning those weapons will be in my account hall, why cant my account use them?

The main reason to dedicate instead customize would be to use the item with other characters.

For that, account customization would be better. That way you also prevent the item to be sold to other accounts.

agreed customized weapons should be account based at minimum.

I wouldn't even care if dedicated weapons in HoM could be could be traded and used just like mini pets can still be used if dedicated. It'll just be devalued like mini pets.

I would absolutely LOVE an option to Account-Customize items, I would customize my collection of caster Wintergreen Spears for epic damage increase and use on all chars in PvP and PvE

But the account customization technology improvement is most needed for the 'red' Reward Point items, they should be Customized for all PvP characters on the account as a default and allow putting them in storage chest instead of all that hassle with transfers through heroes. Same with the RP armors.

For PvE it's a little awkward as it seems pretty logical what customization does for 1 character, but how to explain customization for whole family? That would need a new name like umm soulbinding :S

Account customization could be a good gold sink or sink of something else (skill points?), items Customized to a character could be 'upgraded' by that character to be usable by all characters of the account. For better accessibility, option to acc_customize should be showed all players - performed by all Weaponsmiths who do normal customization.

This should also encourage customization of more items which seems good... but a problem is that many of the most valuable weapons are those that can't be obtained anymore, if people would customize those they'd be extinct even faster.

having the ability to use the destroyer weapons on any toon on the account is a good idea.

/signed i've been thinking about idea for a while too. To a lot of us, destroyer an torment weapons are helluva expensive, especially if you buy them from another player.

I would prefer to give my specific weapons to appropriately to the right toon.

With that said, we should be able to display in hom and dedicate bonus mission weapons.

Don't mind it if they change it so you can use the weapons on the same account, but don't think that you should be able to sell it after.

And no for the bonus mission weps. Free weapons aren't really for a monument, especially since they're not even yours. The belonged to turai, saul, togo and gwen. They were the ones that did the missions and it had nothing to do with your character, so why should it be in a monument to your descendants? You may as well say you could put pre-order weps in the HoM. Just no.

I suspect he was referring to the weapons that you get for handing in the authorised book, not the weapons that you have to equip to start the missions.

another whining thread? they grow like mashrooms. It's good the way it is. Would be nicer if customization was account based but this way aNet would have to change armor customization etc.

^^ this

its very inconvenient when using pve chars in pvp. i don't customize any of my wands/staves because i have to swap them amongst chars for pvp. it isn't practical to keep a water staff or 40/40 water set on a ritualist who's only going to use it occasionally, i just borrow that stuff from my ele. damage bonus on a wand/staff isn't a huge deal, but the disadvantage just shouldn't exist.

I dont think you understand what customizing means ,

well it will get customized to a character to their hight their fingers hands etc for the 20% extra damage, so theres no way another character can use it

Just like armor is customized ...

/signed We should be able to also display weapons from the Bonus Mission Pack such as the tengu and undead weapons. It would be be a benefit since the BMP itself is just boring.

/signed I need some weapons across my chars, can't really afford to have 20 tormented shields.
