So I got my main character to RA5 and decided to start an alt.
I went into it thinking that I can totally gear her out for leveling and the like, maybe give her some cash too just in-case. Well when I first go to mail her some money it turns out that there's actually no way to literally do that. I do some digging around the forums and find that the only way to figuratively do that is to buy and resell items off the Exchange...
So I give up on giving her money, I mean, does she realistically need it? No, not really. I then think to myself,"Oh man, I can totally use to exploration badges I've never used! She'll at least have some very decent leveling gear as she rises in the ranks!" WRONG, because apparently the stuff you get with the exploration badges is now BOP.
So then people have just these methods to resort to: Buying gear off the exchange which might be overpriced as all hell, or reselling materials from the exchange which (in turn) raises the prices on any given item).
Now some who read this might have some things to say like,"Oh you silly mixed up person, leveling gear isn't that important! You can totally do without and just slap X into your wep slots and be perfectly fine."
While I agree with that statement, some don't really want to slap any ol' thing in there and call it a day. This post is not a QQ, nor written with intent to be hostile. It is just something to bring to realization the possibly overlooked problems with the mail system and what we can do for our alts.
