Collector's Edition surprise... - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

I'm getting the CE. I have a job, so 30 dollars isn't a ton. I'm determined to be all I can be at GW, so I want the aura, even if it's not too useful. The artbook and soundtrack are both nice, I like such things. The headset is very appealing, my only microphone is almost as old as I am. The TS hosting, I plan on dedicating to a gaming community that I'm a member ofl; it recently lost its TS host.

Let's not forget that it comes with some Logitech Mic/Headphones. Those are worth about $15-20 on their own. Plus three months of Teamspeak, that is at least worth $15. Add on a spiffy in game "whatever" and the Art Book and I'd say you are at LEAST getting what you paid for.

I think some might be taking the initial release information about the Divine Aura
incorrectly.

"It's really sort of a surprise, so we don't want to show it. The Divine Aura is not an item that you hold in hand, it is not something that you equip or wear, nor is it a constant effect. When the character uses an emote, there is a special effect that reveals itself, which is "the favor of the gods" in visual form"

To me this says that when they use AN EMOTE. Meaning, any emote. You won't be getting a special emote all your own.

The effect on the other hand is a mystery.

I don't know if that clarifies things a bit or makes them more confusing. We'll know soon enough though.

Also, it does specifically state that it is not a constant effect as others have mentioned.
