Does equipping legendary or unique items make them untradable?

Topic!

I noticed some of the legendaries I was wearing were untradable and I’m not sure if it was from season journey or if it was because I equipped them.

I know tempering or masterworking gear makes them untradable but does equipping them do it too?

You probably know this already, but didn’t specify whether or not you’re wearing the gear when you try to trade it. You cannot salvage, trade, or sell any gear if currently equipped. Even if you don’t have it marked.

Unequip it first
This is probably one of those “duhhh? I know that” answers, but just in case! There are probably some people who aren’t aware of this feature that protects gear that’s in use.

If you removed it and took the protection tag off after b doing so and still can’t trade it , I’d say its a bug, my guess.

BTW, the patch makes legendary now tradeable, but not Uniques. I haven’t tried it, but i read that in notes.

No uniques are tradable now too! I think it might just be uber uniques you can’t trade.

And no I unequipped it and it was marked “Untradable” I’ll test it out next time I get on.

My guess? It was a quest reward like season journey so it was locked to me. I’ll post on here again if I figure it out!

Edit: I just tried it. Gear from questing, seasonal journey, or iron wolf gear from reputation gains cannot be traded. I might be wrong on at least one of those but it looks like you can equip gear and then trade it once you’ve gotten its use out of it

I sold a unique yesterday. They are tradable. Nice.

good for you i guess ? but why did it require necroing a thread ?

unless you didn’t see it and you were just in a random page of the forum i guess, but this thread is 2 month old almost

@Gamma:
Did you not read the last part?:
They are tradable. Nice.

Simply verified that hey are indeed tradable

BTW, What is your problem? No need for name calling and such.

where is the name calling in my post though ?
Necroing a thread isn’t name calling it’s something people do either knowigly or not by answering thread that was long solved / months old

and my answer was that they most certainly know by now , especially since the latest post from the op said that the only non tradeable ones were merely the ones from quest / wolf gear.

I didn’t notice it was that old. Jeesus. Relax.

i’am though ?
i mean my post was calm.
i even said “unless you didn’t see it” which could happen as i said.

i think you are the one not relaxing since you said i “name called” you while i didn’t, and said “what is your problem?” like i did something outrageous etc…and so on while my post was pretty chill :sweat_smile:
you are the one being a bit rude there buddy.

the lack of smiley doesn’t mean my post had an angry tone or something.
though i guess everyone have their own perception of a written text.
but i still wonder how you could see any name calling in it

Enough. This is absurd. Have a great day.
