Item now char bound post patch

I have tried explaining this to support and they do not seem to understand. Has anyone else had this happen?

I have an Xvim amulet that somehow became char bound after the patch. They keep explaining that non enchanted items become bound once equipped.

How did this:

Turn into this?

I have submitted reports, asked everyone who will listen and I get no feedback from them whatsoever. I'm particularly annoyed because I got this through lockboxes, so it's a cash item and you would think they would have some kind of support but they just tell me that this is an "unknown bug" that has never happened before.

    Hmm I have one in my inventory that I haven't equipped and the tool tip says bound to ACCOUNT when equipped, though I am betting the tooltip is in error since I can't think of anything else that once you equip it stays bound to account and doesn't become bound to character.

    I don't get it. Have you equipped that item? Because it becomes bound to character when you do.

    It should not be Bound to Account when you get it from a lock box unless your account is flagged for security reasons, such as buying a lot of Zen from Steam, or if your account is on probation.

    You guys seem to have the same issue PWE does. lol

    It was bound to account. Then the patch happened. It TURNED INTO bound to character. I used it on multiple characters previously without an issue. Then post patch, it changed. My other xvim items are still bound to account.

    I had two Rings of Xvim equipped on my SW. Post patch one is in my bag and it says I can now only equip one. Being my lowbie toon that means it's now vendor trash unless it can be equipped on companions which I don't think it could before. This could be as intended. Just because I don't understand the reason for something doesn't mean it's a bug. Not important but the topic was changes to Xvim gear.

    However, what you're talking about was in the patch notes. This thread is about a glaringly obvious bug.

    Well, I just made a costly mistake! I double checked the vendor and saw that the pig companion was BOE...so, hoping it to be a good investment to make a little AD, I used almost 200 Trade-bars to acquire enough Favors of Sune to purchase the pig companion. When it arrived in my inventory, it was bound to me! It's false advertising and I want my trade bars back!!

    Still a problem with the belt for me.
