Before I spend a week trying to decide which of my toons gets it, can someone who has already equipped it from THIS promotion and not the contest winner say if the thing is account bound or character bound, please!
I understand that it says BOE, but I'm talking about after it's equipped.

Correct.
You spend $400, you get two bears, $600, you get three, etc etc.
ouch
Thing is neat, and you get the zen , but still that's steep for pixels.
This is correct.
Once you equip the Armored Polar Bear it is bound to that character and there is no way to obtain another one unless a promotion with the Armored Polar Bear is done again.
It would have been be nice if it was account wide and BoP but it is not. Any time you see an item listed as BoE it is guaranteed to be a one time claim. The bear could be obtained multiple times by paying larger amounts but it can not be claimed multiple times.
A: Each account is eligible for each item once.
The answer given above, completely contradicts the statement below:
20,000 Zen Transferred – Did you miss out on the ultra rare Lord’s Armored Polar Bear mount? Now’s your chance to own one of the rarest mounts in Neverwinter! For every 20,000 Zen transferred, not only will you receive all the rewards below, you will also receive the Armored Polar Bear mount. The mount will be Bind on Equip and ******can be obtained multiple times*******
Q: Are these rewards available only on one of my characters?
A: No, these rewards are account-wide. Once they are available, every character can claim these rewards at the Reward Claims Agent.
IF this were the case, every character would receive NOT ONLY the companions and Ivy Mas BUT would ALL be entitled to the bags/boxes etc etc. Which, is not the case. C'mon guys, you're selling a service. You REALLY need to label these better, or you'll be subject to fraud/false advertisement. Not only are these statements wrong, BUT you have the wrong item listed for the NEW REFINEMENT REWARDS EVENT, still have not changed it to fix the problem BUT have answered in somewhat out-of-the-way forum posts.
By the way this reads: ALL my account, EVERY character should have the Lord's Armored Polar Bear Mount as a BoE, along with the Ivy mask, the companions, 2x Defensive Potion Packs, 1x Offensive Potion Pack and 2x Vanguard Packs... and as I spent $400 for TWO Bear Mounts, I shouldn't recieve doubles of the other rewards, but TWO mounts... to which I have only received only one.
I thought it was horribly worded myself but basic deduction says nothing is BoE and reclaimable otherwise people would simply claim, sell, claim, sell...etc. Think of it this way, you can obtain multiple Nightmares but you can never reclaim nightmares.
Bind on Equip items are never able to be claimed from the reward agent multiple times.
I'm sorry. I don't write the blogs. i don't have the ability to change what is written in them.
All I can tell you is that BoE items are always one time claims.
Oh, yes you do! Find the dingbat who wrote the blog, then boot him/her in the posterior... HARD! Maybe then they'll wake up to the realization that badly worded and/or misleading blogs will not be tolerated by the players.
From the comments I have read, by saying, "The mount ... can be obtained multiple times", players have thought the mount could be obtained multiple times in the one promotion. (I was one of these, hence the reason why I stumped up so much coin.) If this is not ever the case, then the wording should read, "The mount ... can be obtained multiple times, but only once in this promotion".
There - solution found!
You got to keep the Zen. So you paid for 20k zen, and got 20k zen. The bear was just a bonus.
Nope..how wrong I was. Surprised we haven't heard complaining from those people that English isn't their main language - I'd think it would have been really easy for them to not understand the meaning behind Cryptic/PWE's explanation of this promotion.
One thing that really bothers me is this - i've been a player of this game since Beta, I've put more money into this game than I"ll ever admit to anyone, and I want to stay and play the game - but it feels like the developers are doing everything in their power to push me away...and push me away from the game as quickly as possible. Every decision made, every change to the game mechanics, every update to Zen/AD/equipment binding/etc. all seem to be done to drive me away (because I'm just that important).
Up till now I've been resisting these efforts by the developers to push me away....maybe I should be listening to them.
seems you havent understood the point of the discussion...
Here we are talking about how the marketing is really badly and misleading planned -.-
Safe travels,

Maybe because he was trying to sell it for 20 mil and he made a mistake so he take it back quickly
