^^ No, its simply matter of locking in potential things that you want. Once its implemented people who just come in and start will be way, way behind the players who have been active from the beginning of this thread.

Guys anyone willing to trade every one of their rares doesn't just want the dragon blade because it's a decent weapon they want it for it's rarity/because it's an iconic weapon.

There's different Gifting and Trading systems being considered for AQ
Here's some labels we can use for discussion:

Z-Token Item Transfer
This is planned for next major Shop update
Player can transfer Z-Token items into their account shared vault, and any character on their account can retrieve the item.
Z-Tokens can also be stored/retrieved in their vault.
As usual, vault is NOT shared with other people's accounts.

Gift Buying
Buying a Z-Token item and choosing a character to receive the item.
(or perhaps a limited time seasonal gold item like "frostval fruitcake basket")
Optional "Give Item to Random Player" button?

Gifting
Giving away a RARE (no longer buyable) gold item to another character.
Players could agree to Gift each other certain items, doing a trade, but nothing in-game to enforce the trade.

Trading
Two players agree to trade different RARE items between their characters.
The game enforces two-way agreements on what's being traded before trade occurs.
This system would best work outside the game with secure browser form, CAPTCHA, email confirmation, etc.

Gifting Pool
Players give away one RARE item into a magic "pool" each day.
The next day, each player that tossed an item into the pool gets one random item back from the pool.
Like 'Yankee Swap', without the stealing.
The event would run for a limited time, since eventually everyone would get something they'd keep.
Players would need to be at level-cap in order to participate. Guardian chars might need separate pool?
We could seed the pool each day with a few RARE items, to keep things interesting!
