When something is marketed as exclusive in a game, you know I'm totally going to get it because I don't have the option of not getting it right, and then I'm going to log onto my favourite forums for that game, then write a bunch of bullshit because people really care about my opinion right, even if it's dumb and makes me sound completely stupid right, but it's my own opinion right?

Translation from ArenaSpeak:

*Exclusive to mean M.O.X. Golem is the exclusive miniature in this box set being sold in the UK on play.com, amazon.co.uk, and other sites (meaning no other miniatures are in this box set). It does not prevent other M.O.X. Golem miniatures from appearing in other products or in the in-game store.

I am not an official ArenaNet translator, so I am just applying previous logic to the current circumstance. The translation, such as any translation, could be totally and horrible incorrect. Use this service at your own risk.

EDIT: I apologize. I meant Hero instead of mini-pet :-) See, the translation WAS wrong...

EDIT: Misread hero as miniature...

Malice Black · Aug 12, 2008, 03:04 AM // 03:04

Edit- Ohh a mini-pet. Beats my theory. A new green for peoples collection.

Sleeper Service · Aug 12, 2008, 03:05 AM // 03:05

it does say "hero" not "mini-pet".

anyways can we buy it in store with a nice little side quest please (it would be about time too).

apart from the hero/pet mixup, past history demonstrates that what Cybernigma describes is likely to happen.

and while we are at it; 7 heroes. now.

X Tigercat X · Aug 12, 2008, 03:07 AM // 03:07

soo will their hero be available in hero battles??

Crom The Pale · Aug 12, 2008, 03:08 AM // 03:08

I have 25 heros....can only use 3 at one time and already have 3 monks.....assuming this is another monk based on the "party protection" phrase. It could be a Paragon, but then I have 2 of those and can't really see wanting to run 3 at one time.

This seams like one gimic I can live without.

Shayne Hawke · Aug 12, 2008, 03:11 AM // 03:11

Three campaigns and an expansion under my belt. I don't think I'm going to spend over $100 on a hero.

If it were a minipet, it still wouldn't be worth the purchase.

I wouldn't be too surprised if ANet would screw over those that go for this promotion by opening it up to veteran players later.

Lihinel · Aug 12, 2008, 03:12 AM // 03:12

Ok, calm down everybody.

Is it too much to ask if you could at least wait for an official statement before you go crazy about this?

Its not like anybody needs a new hero.

And its not like they wouldnt be tempted to put the unlock code into the online store for 5-10 bucks a couple of month after the offical realease of the product.

(Done that in the past, will do that in the future, see Game of the Year Edition Weapons and Bonusmission Pack)

The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?
The same procedure as every year, James

It is just a Hero after all. I suspect the only thing different will be pixels. I have hero's of each profession already even if M.O.X. was in the online store what reason would there be to buy it?

War, derv or ele. Take your pick at what profession it will be.

Wild Zozo · Aug 12, 2008, 03:18 AM // 03:18

M.O.X = Mock?
can this be a joke?

Mox one of the P9 in MTG.

thinking about it maybe this hero will be able to change its primary profession?

X/X after all its supposed to be a machine and "ultimate".

TaCktiX · Aug 12, 2008, 03:25 AM // 03:25

As for Mox's profession, I wouldn't be surprised if we finally got that variable profession hero Razah was supposed to be.

And it had better be available via in game store post de facto, else ANet will be pissing in the face of all their veteran players.

super strokey · Aug 12, 2008, 03:28 AM // 03:28

Maybe something like olias where you need to own all the campaigns? That would be fine by me

Spazzer · Aug 12, 2008, 03:29 AM // 03:29

Will wait until it's available separately in store.

If you check the product page, it only costs 25$.

Definitely worth it if you want a secondary account.

Until they sold it in the store itself.

lol nice joke Anet. I guess NO ONE is playing GW any more, so you're trying to bring in new customers?
