I'm impressed with the Glacial Blade, thanks for posting.

Now if only support would be faster to help me purchase the pre-order.

Yep. The blade of the Glacial Blade sort of ripples with icy light, and the hourglass in the center of the staff rotates.

Both are very neat.

The sword makes me wish I used a sword!

[edit] Although I wrote about the Hourglass staff also having animations, I couldn't see any when I tried to take screenies. I'll have to keep testing in case I imagined the whole thing..

The items look awesome. Seriously, some of the neatest skins I've seen in GW, especially that glacial blade. The only problem is that they are not inscribe-able in the least. Now not to instigate anything but I can get items that have max stats from merchants, and through drops. I was really hoping that these weapons would be fully customizable. Without being able to inscribe them with what you want, and completely customize them they are essentially mediocre to me. They are free though (since I'll be buying GW:EN and the money I put towards the pre-order will be saved on the final price) and overall pretty cool. I wish there was a way to get them without any inscriptions already, and then add our own.

I keep hearing this talk about the Glacial Blade's animations, but I see nothing animated in that blade. In fact, it only seems to have a bright blue static glow on the side of the blade visible when you view your character from the right. On the other side, it seems a bit duller. Anyone else having this problem?

Anyone else having this problem? the glow moves up and down the blade... maybe its a post process effect

I don't see the glow moving at all. And I'm not too sure what a post process effect is hehe .

As for the bow, -5 to energy doesn't matter much to a ranger. Expertise and the right bar, and you're pumping out pure damage. It's a beautiful thing. -5 on a warrior is a whole different ballgame.

Btw, is the command to unlock pre order items /bonus?

Also, does anyone know why the pre-release bonus pack costs £3.50 in the Online Shop, yet only £1.99 in GAME?

Crazy huh?

Ingame Store £24.99 - £3.50 = £21.49
GAME £24.99 + £1.99 = £26.98

and yes, type /bonus in a town or outpost for the bonus weapons

I was just wondering, do you get anything extra in the preorder pack you buy from a store than the key for the pre-order (like the other pre-order packs).

Oh, and the inside of the cover has the Charr concept art from GW:EN and GW2, which is probably worth the £1.99 I paid for one

I just got the bonus and got the weapons. When I went to type in /bonus I figured that it would give me the weapons. But they are costumized for the char. that i opened them with. So now I cant use any of the weapons cause there for the wrong Char.

Am I wrong?

Am I wrong? Yeah you are wrong, lol.

do /bonus on your other characters, they'll get the items too.

And another thing you can do is put one of the bonus items on a hero, and then type /bonus again and you'll get another copy of that. All of my caster heroes use hourglass staves.
