    I won one of the Gamersbook codes. Whilst they said they were for an eye patch they are actually for an "Ocular Preservation Monocle" (and a Defensive Potion pack).

    Will see if I can get a screenshot up of the eye and flavour text (although only character I have by a mailbox has his hair partially over the item).

    edit: You also get a "Ocular Preservation Monocle" achievement under the Special tab.

    Can you please get a shot of the tooltip and icon, and maybe a screenshot of it on a character with less impressive hair (or just screenshot the existing character in the character appearance change building with the hair temporarily trimmed down). Was there a potion pack / achievement added when you claimed it or just the crown?

    I've updated the wiki promo / achievements pages and set up a page for the item as ( http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Ocular_Preservation_Monocle ). Thanks for the info / screenshots.

    And ugh I totally skipped entry in so far because I figured it was the Starred Eyepatch again and didn't want to steal the code from somebody when I have it already. I really wish promotions were clearer about what they are giving. :(

    I had a hunch it wasn't the starred eyepatch because of the potions listed, but yeah it would be nice.

    As a side note I still haven't received anything from that PC Gamer digital $1 purchase. Starting to wonder... Anybody else had any luck recently with that one?

    Got my second code today, so it definitely worked! People who are still waiting on them: Check your spam/junk filters, and be patient. You WILL get a code eventually. I can only assume they were swamped due to people buying back-issues during the sale, plus it was very close to Labor Day, which they probably took time off for. I tried emailing them fairly recently and got a message that the mail was undeliverable, but it seems like they're up and running again now!

    Sadly, it doesn't look like they're on sale for $1 anymore, but buying a back issue for the regular price will probably still work as well.

    I guess we should include this in the promo list as well...

    Buy a video card and get 1M AD. As far as I can tell it has to be a GTX650, which I'm not sure why they wouldn't let it be GTX650 or better. Anyway, newegg has some for as low as $99, so if you need/want a new card this is an awesome deal.

    I picked up one of the Nvidia codes on ebay for $10 at the weekend. No achievment but wasn't expecting one. Looks like you can only use the code once on each account (Seller had a few for sale so could have tried more but didnt really need more astral diamonds over what it cost to pick up a stone companion).

    And I got the code from digital PC Gamer now as well. Passed it to my wife who now has a Pale Horse to match mine. I've updated the wiki to establish this is still active now (was concerned by the delay following that discount).

    Because the GTX650 is a fail, it costs as much as an HD7770 but with lower performance.

    I'd like to add as well that the PC gamer promotion DID work for the itunes/ipad version of the magazine as well - that was how I got my second code (I bought one via itunes and one via google play). The problem with itunes is your reciept does not come immediately - you get one reciept per week with all your purchases. You can forward that reciept (in its entirety, don't bother removing other purchases) to claim a code.

    Though amusingly there are images of an alleged companion called a Stormrider (along with some other madness like a Owlbear mount) if you kick the web a bit. Its a female mercenary human with increasingly glowing eyes as it levels (spellscarred maybe?). If anything like that shows up hopefully it won't be linked in a magazine or limited winner contest. :)

    Has everyone used their PCgamer code? I tried mine just now and got an error. I have emailed support with a screenshot.
    *update* Well...I bet this is because the game is down for maintenance...didn't think about that.

    Anybody in Australia might want to check out this drawing for a single Noble's Chest ( http://www.pcpowerplay.com.au/2013/08/win-1-neverwinter-nobles-chest-edition/ ). Entry appears to run until the 19th and unfortunately is country specific.

    Ahh yes it does here are the photos of the front and back of the 'trading card' it comes with. To protect the identity of the PW employee listed on the card and to prevent abuse of the code, I have blanked them out.

    valindra_0002_zps43f81f3d.jpg

    The text reads:

    Valindra was once a beautiful moon elf wizard. After her death, the loss of her beauty drove her partially insane. Returning as a lich animated by evil magic, she is the greatest threat facing Neverwinter with powers to command Red Wizard necromances, raise an army of the dead and control a drocolich, an undread dragon of great destructive capabilities.
