Will I get banned if I give mods to my friend?

[heizi_maoyu]

My friend is just rank 5, he can't get to Pluto to trade with void trader this time, so I decided to give some primed mods to him, and he will return me the ducats next time void trader come.

So here comes the question, will this be a form of offline trading? will this get me banned? I mean, I give him a primed mod and he give me some rubbish mod, that value is pretty much imbalanced, I'm somehow quite worried now.

Of course not!! I do this a lot with friends of mine; you are free to trade whatever you wish as long as it's in the parameters of the established items available to trade!! :)

You can trade your friend whatever you want. As far as I know the system has never flagged anyone for an "unfair deal". People have been giving away mods and other things in return for like an ammo drum or whatever for ages when gifting stuff to friends/clannies. You didn't do anything wrong don't worry about it.

Thanks bro !!!!!

That kind of trade is done all the time, and very frequently -- it'd only be a potential issue if you two weren't friends, and still doing the whole "they'll make up for the ducats later" thing. That usually falls under trading for promises, which DE does not do anything about, should you get scammed.

In short: you're fine. Go ahead and trade.

This is a good point. The only thing to keep in mind would be that if his friend decided to renege on the deal, DE would not do anything about it. They don't enforce trades for future promises as you said, so he would have to accept that he basically gave his friend a primed mod(s). If his friend is honest and trustworthy though then he has nothing to worry about.

Yup, it's fine. I've given my friends lots of things, and newbies several piles of mods to get them started.

Just... bear in mind, you know, that Primed Mods carry one million credits in tax. Each. So, uh, your friend will only be able to accept these if he is thoroughly loaded.

[o.0-]

You should ask for Ammo Drums!

 

And yeah Taxes, would be the main obstacle for new players.

[Zhoyzu]

No because IIRC the trade cannot go through unless osmething is offered in return. Ask for a trick mag. Everyone needs more trick mags. Mod Value is in the eye of the beholder. I help out my friend the same way. It would only be considered real world trading or offline if IRL money was being exchanged.

I wouldnt worry about it. One of my other friends when he still played would get a stance mod or something and then lend it to me for a trick mag to test it out. Then we would return the mods to each other. Was doing that for months so i doubt youll have an issue.

 

The game can be brutal in the mod dept. when starting out. I just wanted to help my friend not be so behind. Nothing wrong with that.

[321agemo]

Hope your friend has more than 1mil credits, cos he's gonna need that in trade tax.

[5HV3N]

You can give away any item you want.

Unless it is huge pile of plat.
I'd be careful with such handouts, there were some rumors about such trades being flagged (as possible gold-seller?) and resulting in problems for recipent. Though as I said, just rumors, third if not fifth hand information. Nothing certain, but still.

Also, congratulations to your friend. I made my first million long after hitting mr10. Those credits just won't stay in my pocket.

Primed mods cost 1,000,000 credits to trade so I would recommend you to get him there and do the missions with him to unlock the relay so that he doesnt need to waste credits (and he probably doesnt have that much)

Hey, I gave my Sister a Paris Prime, Ivara, and a few Cosmetics. Nothing wrong with being Generous and helping out Friends and family.

[Cleesus]

You will be fine, you will only be limited by the amount of credits he has and trades he has remaining. Moving

[EgAlia]

Helping a friend is pretty much the opposite of being banned^^

[(PSN)O_o_II_II_o_O]

Oh for a friend!

[Thunderbird889]

It does not matter if its unfair,it also goes with platinum and stuff,my friend game me 100 plat for a regular fusion core cause i needed to buy some warframe slots so you will not get banned even if you trade platinum with someone for a crappy mod.
