Preorder Items

Very funny. truly. It's true, that "item lust" gets out of hand among players. "gotta get that magical bow-hammer-spell-stopping-foot-powder so I'm uberer than your uberestest char." 
Have fun everyone! There will be more parity in this game than in others, so just go have fun!

Bwahahahaha...
Seriously, I got the bow because I plan on primary Ranger characters to start. I don't care how cool it is. I got the preorder so I could play in the BWEs...THAT'S what makes preordering cool...The item...bah...but then, maybe it's got unlimited upgradability...If it did, I could become god-like and maybe transend level 20 and be the first level 21 character...I WILL RULE THE UNIVERSE...*ahem*...but I digress...  |

Awesome. Thank you Sin, that answers my question perfectly. Again, thanks for the help.

For those of you still looking for pre-order packs, I was in Target today, and they had many of them for $0.99 each. I heard about this in some thread here in GWG, so I had to check it out. I picked up a few to give to friends for this weekend. At 99 cents, you don't even have to feel like you have to buy the full game at Target, if it's not convenient. But it will reserve what characters you create. Tally Ho!

Note that you can have multiple pre-order items with one character. You can apparently enter as many pre-order keys in your final account as you want. So it makes prefect sense to buy additional $1 pre-orders if they are from vendors with different pre-order items.

Guild Wars User Support: Preorder Items
Question
Can I have more than one preorder item on my account?
Answer
Yes, your account can have any or all of the seven in-game items. There are six preorder items, as shown on the Preorder Products page. There are five from the U.S. and one from Europe. Plus there is one Collector's Edition special item, the Divine Aura.
If you have a valid access key for the Guild Wars preorder or retail version (Standard or Collector's Edition), you can add those keys at any time to your Account Information page, and those items will be enabled on each of your characters.

pre order weaps Are they EXTREMELY GOOD?
Are they just having cool looks, extreme damage, special abilities no other weapons can get or just slighty better then normal weapons, so you will still be competitive without preordr weapons

There is a sticky about this above, I believe. Also, I think they'll just make it something to show off with a cool graphic, not something extremly "uber that pwnz j00".

Which, of course, is the exact opposite of the route taken. Ah, well. Just remember that it's extremely unlikely that these items will be any good - perhaps the smiting focus since it's the only one in the game, or the european preorder item, depending on how it works, will have a minimal amount of utility in the long run. Peace, -CxE |
they r unique to ur access key, its IMPOSSIBLE to trade them, so choose wisely.
btw
ima be a ranger/elementalist and i ordered from eb games so im getting ithas bow. IMA RULE U BUTTS WIF MY TRAPS,
if u see me in game(name gonna be Gogeta Killer) u will die prolly from my flaming arrows
akuryou13
would the guest code also get you a pre-order item added to your account?
I don't think I've seen this answered anywhere, and I might be able to get a chimeric idol if I can use a guest pass....and since I'll be playing an Elementalist, I might as well get something more useful to myself than the ithas bow.

Anyhow, i just want to express my opinion and say that i think they should play this preorder thing like they did in Star Wars Galaxies where CE's got to wear a visor like thing... It added no extra stuff it just looked cool and was a way of saying,"Hey i got CE." And maybe it made them feel a little more special. (Couldnt tell ya, never had CE)
Secondly, even if these preorders are any good i bet by the first expansion that adds new items the preorder ones will be wipped out! hehe gonna use another game called Dark Age of Camelot as an example. Used to be able to get class specific iterms called epic armor they (still can)were super good for the time, but when the expansion came with Trials of Atlantis (added items) the epic armor now went striaght to the crapper.
Off to bed,

Ok I have 2 questions:
1. I have 2 preorder keys from the US. I entered them to different accounts (didn't know you can enter them to the same account). How do I know WHICH item do I get from these codes? I didn't buy at Best Buy or EBGames but at a different Internet shop not listed.
2. How do I enter more than 1 code into my account? Can somebody please explain that to me?
Thank you so much!

they would not unbalance the game by giving super items just for preordering and leave later buyers at a disadvantage
my elementalist cant use my preorder item and that does not bother me at all

I pre-ordered my game a while back and I don't remember seeing anything about the items then. Maybe I missed it. Wouldn't it be a better option to allow those that did pre-order to choose? I bought mine from EB not knowing that they were vendor specific items.
I guess I'll end up with the Bow and I have no intention of using it as I won't be playing a Ranger and can't take advantage of it.
I'd much rather have a sheild but, meh.... I just want the release so I can play.

The place I ordered it from said I was going to get a Divine Aura... What's that?
Yeah, i'd say, or give out items that all clase can take advantage of.

how about those preorder cd keys in ebay? are they legal? coz one of my friend got his preorder cd key from ebay for 5$. And they say, when you have preordered guildwars you can play it when the game is released. Not needing the retail cd anymore as long as you already have an active account. Is this true?

[QUOTE=Flake]It doesn't really matter whether the preorder items are good or not, there will always be something better you find in your explorations. At least that’s what I've noticed.

the item should appear in your inventory after you create your character.

Ok, just thought up another question I had. I saw the pre-order package at Target and bought it for $0.99, but Target didn't actually pre order it for me. So I made my acct with that Pre-Order box but then I ordered the CE from EBGames. Ok so I get 48 hours of "pre-play" with the Target PreOrder box I think, but then can I activate the game with my retail CE from EBgames? And then would I get the Target or EBGames item? Or do I need to make a new acct with the Pre-Order EB will send me, will that still give me access to the Preplay phase even though I didn't get into beta with that key? Hoping I can just use all the stuff from EBgames so nothing gets messed up. (Would prefer the Bow anyways over Targets generic item) Just curious about my character names, will both accts be active for the pre play if I start a new one with the EBGames preorder? So in that case I could log on to the first and delete me names, wait one painful hour, then use the names on my new acct? It's all so confusing lol, I think target messed up by not taking it as a pre-order and just selling it for a buck?.?.

Hmmm I might be wrong when I say this, I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. However, the pre-order you did at Target, I think really is not an actual pre-order. I think it just means that when the game releases on the 28th you can come to the store, and they will have a copy of the game reserved for you.
Ossain
That's kinda what I thought at first, but nope. When I bought it they didn't reserve anything for me. I think they were just doing it wrong. They don't have my name, number or anything. Saw the same thing at Gamestop when I went to pick up another game and they said the give the pre-order box to anyone that actually reserves (pre-orders) the game. Oh well, guess I can't blame Target for not knowing what the are doing when it comes to games.

you can enter multiple key codes on the same account for more than one item
the preorder plus the CE key codes
Ossain
Wow, I get two pre-order items? Great, now I have to find out how to get all the pre-order boxs for more items lol.

Hmm, so I got this reply asking about how to register multiple preorder keys. It doesn't sound good to me that 2 weeks before release they don't even know if it can be done, although on their support site they say it's possible.
