A folio of the realm

A Shard Bound Item

Shard Bound is an Item Property that was first introduced during the Treasures of the Undead Lords event arc for the 2020 Halloween season. Items with this property are fully tradeable on their originating shard, but cannot be moved with a Character Transfer token. Every item released during these 'Treasures' events are shard bound, including the dungeon drops (points) and all rewards (decorative and equipment) available from turning in said points.

More items from events are also turning up with the shard bound property. Particularly items that drop during Shard Event Moderator events as they sometimes pertain to Shard Story Arcs and even Shard specific history. These items are considered Event/Rares and are limited in quantity.
