Bonus Item Notes

• The items will not appear automatically in your inventory or Xunlai storage. You must use the /bonus command to acquire them. The command can be used by any character on your account to acquire a set of bonus items customized for that character, as many times as you like. You must have free inventory space for the items to appear. They cannot be dropped, traded or even shown in a trade window.
• WARNING: These items CANNOT be salvaged, so if you add a suffix modifier (e.g. grip) to it, you will not be able to take it off, but you can replace it with another one. These items do not accept prefix modifiers (e.g. a Bow String).
• These bonus items can be activated in pre-searing, allowing for some better items/weapons than would be usually available when going for the "Defender of Ascalon" title.
• As with all customized weapons, your heroes can use them, so long as it's customized for the character controlling the hero.
