And no from me too, buy the faction stuff and trade that instead, what with there being a market and all for that.

It did from day 1. It's called bind on equip items. Let someone else take the punishment of doing high-end raiding and buy his loot for in-game gold.

No, what OP is asking for is allowing you to sell honor/justice/secondary currencies for gold, which WoW has not done, and shouldnt, because it would be stupid

Trading LP of one type for another would be nice...


I would love this. I posted in a different thread about this idea.

Say you have 47,000 LP from Caldarri Navy, but you moved to Amarr space, why not be able to trade the Cal Navy LP over to Amarr Navy at a 3:1 ratio or just cash out the LP from the Cal Navy at a 2:1 isk coversion.

I also like the Eve Market idea. Sell my LP on the market to others that may need it or want it more than I do.
We can do the LP swap with Concord LP from running Incursions why not be able to swap them out from other Npc Corps to Concord or other Npc Corps?

On the fence about trading LP from one faction to another as per the example Caldari to Amarr, I can see good and bad things about it.

Trading LP for ISK, or selling LP on the market on the other hand get s thumbs down from me as well.

I'll say the same here as in other such threads (I like to be consistent :D ). LP is for loyalty to a specific corp and should not be tradeable. The most I think should be a Letter of Recommendation to allow you to push LP from a corp up to the controlling faction to partially aggregate them. Whichever faction you worked under will give you nice faction goodies to sell on the market.

A sure.. you mean.. EXACTLY as the money you are payed by your employer works? You got that money because it is YOU that he is rewarding.... exaclty the same.

Another point of view from me: I found it very nonesense that all offices under same allied factions can't consume each others LP. If I earned tons of LP from Gallente, why not purchase Minmatar stuff with the same?

It might be my bad to not knowing it, but is there any way to exchange it?

Actually it's not exactly the same, you get paid for doing the job, you get rewarded with LP (and hence Faction goods) for working for a given corp / faction regularly. You want better faction stuff from them then you'd better work more for them to reward your loyalty.

Anyone can get paid for a one off job, only those that show loyalty through repeated jobs get the additional rewards.
