They say a picture says a 1000 words, and while this has evolved for New Character's, older Character's still have the items not in Usable Useful Items where they can be 'Protected' despite they should for one obvious reason shown in the image.

They really should 'Move' all 3 of those items to Usable Useful Items for All Character's regardless, and also allow protection as it does for New Character's who start the campaign. :+1:

Thank You!

    It would be a better solution to simply remove those items from the list of what can be donated to the coffer.

    Still I'm fine if they don't move them, just be nice if we could protect items regardless if in Usable Useful Items, or Useful Items.

    I consider 'Usable Useful items' are those you can right click and 'Use' and/or doing something about it.
    That means "Infernal Resonator" staying in 'Useful Items' is a bug.

    Yea that's a good point, still it also be nice to Protect the Boat in Ice Wind Dale. And always got to be careful to not donate my Amulet to the Guild coffer...

    What I recently discovered, is you can actually DRAG the "Resonator" up to Usable Useful Items yet sadly you can't do that with the Amulet--so at least you can protect the War Machine.

    They really should let us do that with the Amulet & the Dragonbone Khyek or Boat as well! Especially cause the Khyek the only option they give is to discard it, and you actually can which really no one would want to in fact do. :(

    So hopefully they consider this change. <3 - :+1:

    The "Usable Useful Items" is about if you can "use" it. Since the only option of the Khyek is 'discard', it is not "usable" as 'right click and then use it'.
    I personally do not associate being in "Usable Useful items" with "protection".

    If something needs protection, it should be allowed to be protected regardless where it is parked to.

    I fully agree with you on that Note, as I said before or at least strongly implied it; they should let us Protect Items in just Useful Items.

    So here's a very clear suggestion:

    It's just not how it works currently. And strangely all my New Character's running Vallenhaus also show the Amulet now in Usable Useful Items, and not sure why, yet at least there I can protect it... ...perhaps that's why they moved it, still doesn't allow me to Protect those character's who still have it in Useful Items. Still I believe it's required to use Forger's Box. So it make sense we should be able to Protect Useful Items too! It doesn't prevent keys from being consumed on use, just prevents accidental discarding of them like the Boat. :astonished:

    I mean Khyek is the obvious choice to protect, and they should allow us to drag Khyek to Usable Useful Items, cause even those it doesn't say use, you do in fact need to Use it while your on the water.

    We agree largely in part, I just don't care which path they take, allow us to protect ALL; or just allow us to move a few items to Usable Useful Items. I'm fine either way...
