Where to order GW: 2006 edition w/ collectible items? - Guild Wars Forums

Da Cebuano · Jun 18, 2006, 01:28 PM // 13:28

Lately, I've been thinking of a 2nd account, while I don't have the time to play both, I thought it'd be nice to have a change of pace every once in a while and my only account is getting too stuffed even though I'm not as rich as I wanna be ^^

http://eu.guildwars.com/support/article/gw06_edition/

I want to add these items on my main account for the uniqueness, I'm a US player, so if anyone know whether the item merge w/ the US account is doable or not, let me know. Also, if anyone have the items, are they upgradable the way the factions preorder items are? I wound really like to add a fort mod on that hammer(not to mention a 20/20 sunder) and a fort mod on the bow, I'm under the impression that they are.

Anyway, anyone know of an online retailer for this game? I searched google and came across a german site, all others were just rubbish talking about the game itself.

You can merge European keys with US keys, if you're asking about territories, AFAIK you can run an account with European keys on the American server.

Also, you should have a look round for the Game of the Year edition, which I believe is the same as the European 2006 edition, and is available in the US.

Da Cebuano · Jun 18, 2006, 04:20 PM // 16:20

is it available now? I got the impression that so far, everything was europe only, which was strange to me why they didn't do a US base first as we have more players.

From this thread, http://forums.gwonline.net/showthrea...highlight=GOTY, it looks like it came out in May. The thread has pics of the bonus items from the Game of the Year edition which are the same as the 2006 edition, and those who got it, got it from EB Games

GoTy Edition for America IS OUT - it was just what they call a "Silent Release" in the business.

No Press, NO Cool Posters, just silently snuck it onto shelves.

I was talking to a guy in Verati's Refuge, and he said he wears his Coke Shield all the time, so people in RA are like "ZOMG!@!@! We Got a Korean, We are sure to Win!@@!!!"

according to one of the posters on GWOnline the GotY Edition didnt have 2 keys, the account key gets the items (I cant confirm this, its just what someone posted).
In contrast,the European Edition (which I can confirm, because I got it for my sister) has 2 keys, 1 for the account and 1 for the weapons. This allows for the weapons to be added to an existing account without wasting the new game key.

Caelus, can you tell me if this is the Euro edition in question or has there been another edition released since this one?

That is just the regular Special Edition not the 2006 one. Pretty much the thing that makes it Special is that you will get 8 skill unlucks for your PvP char ( 7 regualr +1 elite) and 2 weapon or armor ( rune ) upgrades. Well theres a map of Tyria too but it's not as cool as one would think.

Caelus The Fallen · Jun 19, 2006, 02:52 PM // 14:52

Yeah, thats not the 2006 Edition I'm afraid. I got my copy from www.freerecordshop.com, they are a little pricier than most, but its the only place I have seen the '06 Ed.
