Changes: Guild Wars Japan Pre-Order Items

Revision as of 05:19, 7 January 2006

Officially called "Limited Items" in Japanese, on the English fan forums they are more commonly referred to as the Japanese pre-order items.

Each item is an animal plus one of the 7 sins. Stats aren't available yet.

The items are all named in English and written in katagana. Currently only part of the stats of these items were revealed.

Poison Scorpion Lust (Bow) ("Poison" here most likely means "Poisoner") - Increase Poison Duration, and more
Lion Pride (Elementalist focus) - Increase Recharge for Fire Skills, and more
Fox Greed (Monk focus) - Increase Casting Speed for Healing Skills, and more
Unicorn Wrath (Mesmer cane) - Increase casting speed for Illusion skills, and more
Insant Snake Envy (Necromancer staff) ("Insant" here most likely means "Insight") - Increase casting speed of Blood skills, and more
Hog Gluttony (Shield) - +30 Health, and more
Sundering Bear Sloth (Hammer) - Damage increase by 15%, and more

For caster attribute related bonus, the descriptions all say "skills" instead of "spells", though see Weapon modifiers for a known issue. None of the modifiers mention triggering conditions, but in general should not be assumed to be constant effects due to balance issues.

Each purchase of the Packaged Version (as opposed to Download Version) of Guild Wars Japan will have an item serial key to unlock the preorder item. The pre-order item received by the character is randomly chosen among the seven. It is currently not explicit whether the pre-order item is the same for the entire account or not.

The "/preorder" command can be used to re-obtain discarded pre-order items.
