Qwikswing Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Hi all Quick question. I purchased a mount and equipped it on my BH, thinking the Mount would be available on my other characters. To my surprise, I cannot find it on my Sorcerer? Are mounts account bound?
ShawDou Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 They are character bound as almost all items you get. But if they are cartel market items, you can unlock them via collections and then claim them on another characters. (collection is default ctrl+c or button in invetory)
Cox_The_Beast Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Hi all Quick question. I purchased a mount and equipped it on my BH, thinking the Mount would be available on my other characters. To my surprise, I cannot find it on my Sorcerer? Are mounts account bound? Um no, Mounts are Character bound... Cartel Market ones you can unlock for a Cartel Coins fee though. Just log another character, look at your Collection, and find that speeder. Then you can unlock it account wide, and all your characters will have it.
Qwikswing Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Ok guys, thanks for you help. I did get it from the CM, so I'll unlock it when I jump back in game Cheers!
DocDAM Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Hi and welcome! I'm assuming you are new to the game. In which case, I''m just post what I often suggest: Don't rush to spend those cartel coins you have. Especially on stuff like mounts, armor, weapons or an in-game item. Most of these (armor, weapons, pets) are just cosmetic. They have no inherent stat advantage over what you will quickly find in the game. Play for a while, and/or ask here, for suggestions on what to spend them on. I always favor quality of life items, or things that I'll need if I let my sub expire and continue playing with "Preferred" status. And save some for Collections unlocks (like your mount). Here's my post on this: http://www.swtor.com/community/showpost.php?p=8259307&postcount=17
SteveTheCynic Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Then you can unlock it account wide, and all your characters will have it. The highlighted words are important. There are three sorts of unlock you can apply: * Per-character - what it says. Unlocks for the character that buys / applies it. * Legacy-wide - Unlocks for all characters (present and future) on the same account and server as the character who buys / applies it. * Account-wide - Unlocks for all characters (present and future) on the same account as the character who buys / applies it, no matter which server they are on. "Collections" unlocks are the last type.
