So, for those of us poor sods who are stuck at work, what's the special gift? Is it another Mist Tank like I thought it was? =P
What's the bonus item?
I also did not see a Shield.
Weird, I have that shield and I didn't do any receipes or bought it.
no shield for me as well.
That shield is your starter Proto Shield.
Those other items may seem common to you now when everyone has them, but down the road the new players coming in will be envious of you all for having rare items!
booo im so stupid i didnt equip the new gear before crossing the chasm lol
Interestingly, the tester reward gear also seems to have slightly better defense than normal starting armor. That's a nice little bonus for starting out.
@Poseidon
It's not a Proto Shield. It's a Force Buckler.
Are you sure you didn't buy or pick that up somewhere? Because I'm not seeing a Force Buckler in my inventory anywhere, neither.
word, just a armor, helm and medal. No shield.
Well, if Proto Shield = new beta-exclusive shield, then everything's okay. If it's not, then whatever, it's not like I can equip this shield as costume armor.
As there have been some questions, just to clarify: if you created your account after 9pm PDT on Sunday, March 27th (when the Preview closed), you will not receive the bonus Preview Players items.
I checked my inventory twice and i couldn't find the beta tester shield.
I got no shield, but I did get a armor and helmet :) Both with notable improvements at level 10 (over the original equipment)
Again, the bonus does not include a shield.
Notable improvements at level 10?! They have just slightly better defense then regular starter gear.
Anyway helm with crash test dummy yellow/black circle and the letter β looks great.
You get a helm, shield and an armor.
They're a little golden. The helm is a constructor helm that shows a greek beta symbol (Beta Test :P)
The armor looks like any normal armor just with some gold stripes slapped on it.
The shield is round and has a star on it.
You also get an artifact "Pioneer's Medal"
Description: "This medal signifies that the bearer was amongst the first pioneers to boldy enter the Clockworks. Through their exploration and sicoveries of these pioneers it is clear that the world beneath the surface is a far more amazing place than it could have ever been without them. Spiral HQ is proud to have them serving amongst the ranks of the spiral Knights."
It's 5 stars.
