I read that you get a special glow and an art book, did anyone actually fork over the EDIT -> exam (This is EXTRA *slap forhead) $$$ (50$?) for it? Comments?

It's called the Collector's Edition, yes lots of people have payedthe extra for it and are very happy with their decision.

I just upgraded today at Gamestop, from what I hear the art book is super sweet and the headphones/teamspeak is a nice bonus. That and as a Monk I will need the "blessings of the god" ...lol

Sounds like the Collectors Edition. You get the Divine Aura that makes your character "glow" along with the rest of the material you mentioned.

Well then my advice to you would be, don't buy it.

I got it too. Is it worth it? Lets just say, IMO, that those that didn't missed out on some sweet stuff! It was worth the money and I will still get the next chapter even though I spent the extra $30 to get the CE now.

Oh, it's definately worth it. The art book is absolutely gorgeous, and the soundtrack is excellent!

How does the soundtrack sound? That was the only thing that was catching my eye in the CE.

I finally had to let my wallet decide which to get and I got the regular edition.

The soundtrack sounds amazing. I've barely listened to anything else since I got it yesterday.

what does the mic look like, is it cheap? Mind throwing a pick out? *starts to regret not getting it*

Just kidding, can anyone tell me of the quality of the headset?

Can you turn off the aura for stealth characters? Does the glow affect PvP characters too? A glowing monk might be good for PvP/GvG...Not!

The headset is the Logitech Internet Chat headset, and it feels pretty comfortable. Haven't checked the quality of it too much (The sound feels a bit tinny, but I'm used to the high quality headphones I usually wear)

You only glow when doing emotes, so it won't affect your visibility during pvp
