[Suggestion] Orb of Antiquity: A Proposed Currency for Upgrading Uniques

Ah yes, a scalper's dream.
Leveling uniques for sale at incredible prices because there's a change to upgrade them to tier 1 or 0 uniques.

These ideas only work in SSF.

Well, GGG could implement a direct way to stop scalping by making the item account-bound once the Orb of Antiquity is applied. This ensures the upgraded unique cannot be resold on the open market.

Another way to prevent scalping is upgrading the unique also corrupts it in the process.

Even another way is making the Orb of Antiquity sufficiently rare where the cost of the upgrade itself acts as a barrier. Scalpers would need to invest heavily in the currency to upgrade uniques.

There are methods to prevent scalping, these are the top three ideas off the top of my head.
