Open up a trading system that only lets players trade items for items of the same class. Ascendent energy for shards and vice versa. Raid gear for raid gear of the same class, for example a Titan raid helmet for Titan raid gauntlets. Spinmetal for Spirit Bloom, etc. No engram trades. No Xur item trades. This could be done in a Elder Scrolls: Online fashion.
It would help players become so much less frustrated with the game. I don't need a second Timebreaker. I don't need 7 Chatterwhites. I don't need a second raid helmet.
A suggestion for distinguishing raid gear from regular legendary stuff is making raid armor a different color, for instance red. Then you could make the trade system block any trade for items that don't have the same level and color. One item for one item. or two pieces of raid gear for a raid helmet if you want to keep that on a pedestal (I think you can only get it from hard mode). If you don't like the separate color idea, then maybe a point system could be assigned to gear and weapons that must be made equal or within 1 or 2 points in order for a trade to take place.
What do you guys think? By restricting the trade system in either of the ways noted above, you still have to earn your items. You just have an option if its something you're just going to dismantle and you need something of similar value. It will ease RNG pain. I posted a similar reply to DeeJ's post earlier, but I doubt it will be seen as a reply and I wanted to hear what you guys thought of this idea.

No, do not support trade. There will be duplicating, modding, and hacks. You really want that

Trading opens up the game to account hackers in order to sell (for real world money) items on a digital black market. Sorry, as nice as it would be, I vote no.

No trading at all

Edited by Your Absent Father: 10/22/2014 8:45:23 PMNo trading of any kind ever. I understand what you're saying about using an equal quality item for the same but it's not needed.

only "trading" I am ok with is at the rewards screen. allow peopel to trade the rewards they just got with people they just beat the mission with. nightfall strike. me and my friend. he got the last word (his 4th one) and I got 5 coins. he didnt need the gun but wanted coins I didnt need coins but wanted the gun.

So far, we are at a 3:1 ratio of people supporting a trading system like this vs people not supporting a trading system like this. Interesting! Keep the topic going! Share some of your ideas!

actually it's better to do weapon/armor enhancer than trade so pple could make progress in game

I agree with the trading option but you should be able to trade any time of any kind any rarity any class because if it's legenedary item or exotic you have to be level 20 anyway

I don't even need to read this, automatic agreeable thread, seriously can't even start with how many players have been wanting this.

I´d miss the option to get rid of the stuff i don´t need - what about the Titan helmet for my Warlock? I don´t have the time and don´t want to create a Titan alt. And i´m not going to use any plasteel therefore?!
