Change how reputation items work

[DeannaVoyager]

Veteran players have most of the reputation tracks completed. Galactic Seasons introduced several new reputation tracks but people have to choose if they want to max out the reputation for seasons or save them for conquest points. People who want to save them for conquest points can't really take the purple rep items from the NPC, they want to have as many as possible instead of as many points as possible. This means having to click the tokens one by one and you can only have stacks of 50. They are not legacy bound, so you need to guess which character is going to need them, but not take too many because they take inventory space too. On top of that, there is a limit of 200 items in the currency tab, so instead of letting us go get the tokens when we need them, we have to take them out in advance to make room for new ones.

Some daily areas give reputation tokens too, which is great, if you can go those areas with any character. But wait, you can't. We haven't been able to skip story for ages to get access to those new daily areas, and that's limiting the options on how to get the items and to what character. 

 

So here is what I suggest:

- Let us unlock new daily areas without having to play the story (or let us skip there). It's not fun having to do the same content over and over again, but when it's also required that you only do it with a certain character (a character that has access to the area) it gets boring really fast.

- Change reputation tokens from character bound to legacy bound. 

- After reaching the reputation track cap, don't lock the reputation items as vendor trash only: let us get the reputation conquest points even when selling them to vendor. This would allow people to do whatever content they want and still get reputation items. It would include all daily areas and events, and it would be an incentive to do those things again even after we've done all achievements and got the reputation maxxed out.

its not only the reputation tokens also the casino tokens that are character bound and no legacy bound the only event token what is not legacy bound.

and also the dark vs light tokens are also not legacy bound.

so there need to make both of then also legacy bound.

I think it would be a better idea to remove the weekly reputation cap and add a repeatable reputation in which you get rewards for each time you cap it. That way it gets rid of a nuisance  and adds replayability.

This would be fun I think!

I have seen other games doing it bit like that too. After maxing reputation track, all reputation you gain after that will go into repeatable reputation bar and giving you rewards every time you complete it.

It would also add more replayability to lot of content with reputation tracks that are very fast to complete.
