Bling Gnome

Bling Gnome support for our retail box is going out in this heave. The retail box is planned for late June release! The Bling Gnome is a new passive skill that, when equipped, summons a little gangster gnome that picks up all your gold. You can occasionally activate the gnome to pick up all of your nearby loot (below Mythics) and convert it to gold. Each time your gnome does this conversion, he has a chance to poop out a mythic item. The more items he picks up at once, the better chance you have of getting a mythic. Items that have been picked up by you and later dropped will not be converted to gold by this skill.

Seems like while you wont get them converted, or counting towards a Mythic item, you can still pick them up and take them to a merchant and sell them just like you can now.

If you are already a member: the membership time you receive from the retail box will stack with any
already-purchased game time. So in other words, it won't reset your game time - it will simply add on to it.

That was a big concern of mine as well...it's a question I kept asking, just to make sure

If this was answered already somewhere on the boards I apologize - I must have missed it.

Since this seems to have evolved into a retail box q&a i'll just ask here... There won't be any regional splits with the european edition, right? And if i were to buy the US edition could i activate it on my european account?

So.... if I let my auto renewing membership expire, the retail box credits will kick in and I wont have to use my credit card for 6 months?

That's the heart of my initial question so if you could get a definitive answer, that would be GREAT!!

Yes. Applied to an existing member account, it will extend membership by 6 months. Applied to an existing nonmember account it will provide membership for 6 months. Used to create a new account, it will provide 6 months of membership.

	I really hope that you think about all the players outside of US or Europe in regards to being able to purchase the retail box online without a delay. We have supported the game for a long time.

I have a question that I haven't seen addressed, or if it has, I missed it somehow...

Will the Bling Gnome ever be available for us to try out on the PTS? I know most of us are excited about having our own Bling Gnome but this may be a chance to get people hooked that aren't already sold on buying the box. (I already plan on buying the box, I just don't want to wait until it comes out to have a gnome pooping items for me.

)

Edit: I know I don't post much, but geez, this can't possibly be my first post in the last 15 months...

UPDATE! We'll be selling $20US retail codes at the PlayNC store. These will be available at the same time that the boxes are available in the stores. These codes will provide the Bling Gnome and 6 months of membership. Only folks outside the US and Canada will be able to purchase in this way for at least 30 days after the retail release.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say no, the mythics that the gnome with poop out, will not be class specific. The only way to get class specific is to buy from sally, or sam. But the jewelry at sam isn't class specific. So I don't think the mechanics of it would go so far as to look at which passive skills you have in.

As for the soulbinding, god i hope not, that would be lame, get some sb fighter weapon on a mage, no, i think not.

	I agree in that I doubt it will be class specific. I do not think they should be soulbound either, I was just curious. If they are, then the reduction rate of non-member RBs may not matter. -------------------- Victims... Aren't we all. Unofficial Dungeon Runners' Myspace of the Antisocial Wolf
