Warlock booster Pack - Is there any planned?

Just wondering if anyone has heard if they are going to be doing a Warlock booster pack like they did with the Ranger? I am planning on dropping some cash on my upcoming Warlock and am really interested to know if any sort of Warlock specific pack is planned?

    I think they will. It's something that will sell, so why not? Won't sell as well as a "Create your Warlock at the same level as your hightest character!" button would, but... ;)

    I would bet my account that there is, but Cryptic is very good at staggering updates on sales and other events.
    Where'd my blinky-blinky path go?

    There's an Erinyes of Belial companion shown on the Preview Gateway that says it comes from a SW Booster Pack.

    The Silver Sword - NW-DEIPWYISA - Daily Qualified
    A Relaxing Stay - NW-DEEYNZYZ9 - Daily Qualified but going to be updated

    Well good. Would have preferred a tank based on playing the warlock on preview, mostly since I have a tendency to mostly solo, but I guess this is probably honestly better for any of the endgame content.

    Hope the pack has other useful goodies like bags and such and not priced an outrageous amount. (Got about $50 to speed for bags, bank slots and maybe a mount and/or companion).

    I hope it is worth buying. I am passing on the Dragonborn pack because it does not have anything I really want (never plan on playing Dragonborn) and is rather pricey. I liked the Hunter Ranger pack, I felt that it had some nice stuff in it.

    IF the dragonborn had female versions I'd buy the pack, but from what I have seen (videos etc) they are all male only :(

    Oh well :p

    From my understanding they do have female versions, just they were not finalized in time for the vids, etc.

    If you go to the Character creation screen on the Preview server, you can see the female Dragonborn. This has been stated several times in various threads.

    They updated the package detailed description page and show both sexes - and more detail on account-wide items (30-Slot Bag and Ring):

    The 30 slot bag is one PER CHARACTER??????

    That alone turns it from initially seeming to be the worst pack so far to easily the best for anyone with more than 3 or 4 alts....

    Yes, IF it is correct. However, I seem to remember that initially it was meant to be claimable once per account, so confirmation would be really nice.

    Read the updated description - it is exactly the same as Hero of the North and Guardian (I have both) - which is:
    This bag can be claimed once PER CHARACTER

    It is Bind on PICKUP - but can be claimed by ALL CHARACTERS (the same for Hero/Guardian packs - so this is status quo). So can the Ring. The Bahamut Regalia is still questionable (all other pack this type item is the same: BoP, but all characters - though to be safe I'll presume only once per account)

    The description was updated, without an announcement (I believe it was announced in at least the French forum, though). Hmph.

    Oh well, this makes the pack more valuable. It's now closer to reasonably priced, I think.

    Fair enough, thanks. This would seem to make it very likely that the description has been correctly updated to reflect the fact that the bag can now be claimed once per character.

    I understand how ambiguous it seems and therefor a lot of people have doubts. However, I've played Cryptic titles for five years - and Neverwinter since Closed Beta - and whenever they say "per character" it's always been to mean "every character you have and will have".

    And I also have the Hero and Guardian packages, which come with bag - and that bag is the same: bind on pickup, can claim it only ONCE, but every character can claim it. So you can see how it's easier (and shorter with fewer words) to just say "claim once per character".

    Will that Warlock cost to play?

    As far as I know, classes will be free. Races occasionally need to be bought.

    The Scourge Warlock is free to play. There will be a Scourge Warlock Booster Pack on launch day that is similar to the Hunter Ranger Booster Pack that came out when the HR was released.

    Thank you, the money I had saved can go on the Dragonborn pack then \o/

    ps. Could I have a companion for the Dragon born pack please? I promise to be good :)

    Neat, thanks!
    Will you please share what details you can about the SW booster pack? Thanks!
