As I'm sure everyone is aware, there is an abundance of ladder tokens in the game, with nothing really to spend them on. I have a half-baked idea that I think would make it more interesting, and use up tokens... but I'd like some feedback from the community!
1. Have a choice to create the gear as bound or unbound. A check-box on the inventing screen maybe? The unbound gear remains as is, and can be bought/sold, guild tagged etc.
2. The bound gear would have a few more options tailored in. As it stands, most of the gear you can make with ladder tokens is virtually worthless after a couple hundred levels. My suggestion would be to use the tokens to 'upgrade' gear.
For example, the agiads set, which is lvl 700. For the small price of 50 tokens, you could increase the level of the agiads set to 800 - whereby increasing its stats in whatever formula the cows use.
This could be a way to keep the ladder sets useful, and use up tokens in game, plus a way to increase interest in the ladder again.
IMO, this idea should ONLY work/be implemented if the gear is bound... It might be easier to just make all subsequent ladder gear bound, and only allow the upgrades on that gear, nothing that's already in the game?
Thoughts?

I am sure there are plenty of us in fallensword that can help you finish baking this idea
I like it :idea:The unbound gear remains as is, and can be bought/sold, guild tagged etc.

Would love to see many new items, can't go wrong with adding more interesting gear to spend the tokens on. perhaps even potions. like LIB500 or AL500 that are bound.
For example
I like the example, being able to upgrade a set with an amount of tokens
This could be a way to keep the ladder sets useful, and use up tokens in game, plus a way to increase interest in the ladder again.
Personally, I have never played the ladder, and I probably would start playing it if the reward was worth the stamina burned. Sets are worthless as you say, even though that is not the objective for me, I would like to see the ladder built in such a way it is fun, right now, there is no interest and the reward system is under achieving.
:idea: +1 from me
