I was thinking about WoW souldbond items... i don't like them, because you can't trade with them.
But Bind on Equip are bad also, because you can trade with them only 1 time....
A system like diablo 2 is bad also... because the objects are accumulating,
Then i had an idea:
BoE but with uses. It means, f.e., if i find a item Bind on Equip (5). It means it has 5 uses, you can equip the item in 5 distinct characters. when the five equip it = BoE(0), the items goes soulbound, and it's no more tradeable item.
With that can be many BoE (uses) items... the most common with 1 or 2 uses. The most really rare items that are hard to find.. with high uses, BoE(5) , f.e.
Just, no. All it'd do is play into duper's hands even more, since they could dupe 5/5 items to replace ones that people use up.
Besides, there's no way to soulbind a rune, which is the main unit of trade and currency, so it wouldnt affect the economy at all, just piss people off and discourage them from trading for your 2/5 CtA instead of a 5/5 one

Now you have infinity CTA, and Runewords/uniques have loss value, cause they never disappear. That's why wow, introduced soulbound and BoE items. But i game that 1 of the most important part is trade... it's not desirable have infinite very good item after 3 year of play... this cause items are having less value.
And BoE items is not enought... you only can trade with them 1 time....
That's why i think the game that 1 of the most important part is to trade, it need a mix of all those ideas.

crap? why? at least say your opinion, and how solve the problem of having infinity items with the pass of time.
I stated my opinion.
Before implementing Bind on Equip items makes any sense any game on b.net plus those to come have to be 100% dupe-proof. Today i can trade in b.net channels and / or trade games for everything needed to build something like Infinity within minutes! BoE won't change this, all i would need to do is build another runeword.
The only kind of Bind on xxx stuff that would change this are Bind of Pickup items and that's crap too on all items needed to build something. For example BoP runes makes building runewords almost impossible. Try to find or cube 1+ high rune with the very same character during 1 ladder season to build a high level ladder-only runeword. Good luck with that.
