They made components non-tradeable for a reason. Basically you take a chance when you try to extract them from a plant. It's fine the way it is.

I disagree to this same reason as to what was stated above.

It's kind of like a stamina and gold sink. Becuase if there's failure in extracting, it means it disappears, if there isn't then we won't lose anything and actually gain more, if there is a failure yet we can still trade them, then others who have failed could have no risk of failing.

Trading plants is like giving someone a lottery ticket. It might be a winner, or it might be a dud.

If they were tradable then no one would sell plants. People would farm the plants, extract what they got and sell the component. Furthermore you would be using your component storage to hold items you want to sell. This eliminates the need for spending FSP on backpack slots to hold future auction items.

Anyhow, the way I see it. They got it setup now to as a formula to cause both gold and FSP sink. I don't necessarily agree with it this way, I have seen in other games players will craft base items to pass on to others that want to craft higher items. But bottom line, I can see why it is how it is.

What if they can only be traded within a guild ?
