Shadowmantle Pack

I wonder if we'll have a Shadowmantle Pack similiar to the ones we had in the Feywild launch and the game lauch itself?

If so, what the mount and the companion would be?

    I'd love to see a new Shadowmantle pack. A homunculus companion would be neat and since I vaguely recall something to do with Thayan griffon riders, a griffon mount (yes, I know that they should be able to fly and that mechanic isn't in the game) would be very cool. Failing that, some kind of fun, magical beast/construct.

    The other packs had a special version of a race in them, the drow renegade and moon elves, I wonder what a hypothetical Shadowmantle pack would have instead seeing as how I don't think a new race is coming out.

    I actually had in mind the Guardian of the North and the Knight of the Feywild and while the last had an exclusive race, it has almost the same stats as the Sun elves, so the exclusive race did not appealed to me at all. Since I have a total of 11 characters, I'm more interested in a pack that can grant me an additional mount and companions for all characters in the account.

    Maybe the race will be Shadar'Kai, they should be an easy add in for the character creator.
    I would like to see a 20 and 60 dollar pack offered alongside Module 2.

    I would have expected the Stags (Large and small) to come with the Ranger. I suspect something forest-ie and al-natural.

    Shadar-Kai would be fantastic, particularly as characters can already choose Netherese backgrounds. The shadow teleport ability would be nice too. :)

    Shadowmantle Datamined , enjoy ! http://imgur.com/a/tcTkB

    Seriously want Apparatus of Kwalish :O

    Id guess that the Shadowmantle pack will contain
    Companion - Forest Hawk
    Mount - Hunter Horse
    To go with the Hunter Ranger.

    I get the feeling that might of been the original plan. But I feel the release on the classes seems like it slipped a module. Feywild pretty much screamed ranger zone. In the same fashion that the new dread ring with its focus on Theyian wizards screams warlock.

    Spot-on theory there.
    I'm all-in on that one.

    Can you provide me instructions of where and how I can see those in the preview server?

    Wow, an Apparatus of Kwalish? Fantastic! Loving the Old School flavor.

    I assume we will be able to buy a new pack just before module 2 goes live and I'm wondering what will be in it?
    Looking at the two previous packs it's easy to imagine what might come in them.
    Maybe there should be two packs so it was possible to choose or a build your own pack?
    Do I want any more mounts? Companions? Costumes?
    No, not the way it is now. I have to buy slots for my companions to have the active and I can't upgrade my bank or inventory any further (and not sure I want to do it to store companions and costumes)
    I might buy it if the mount is really cool, but after seeing that I could get a unicorn from the zen market just shortly after module 1 went live, I'm not going to pre order the pack this time, unless, of cause, it got some other items
    (I know the other packs had other items than mount, companion and costumes but those weren't what made me buy it, they were more add ons to the packet)

    There are plans for a ranger pack, the preview server has a new Hawk companion, Purple quality, that list's itself as being available from the Hunter Ranger pack, No idea what else will be available

    You don't need to buy active slots, you get the last two for free. One at 30 and another at 60 if I'm not mistaken.

    You can't see them on the preview server , the pictures are what I assume cryptic will be using when these Mounts and Companions go on sale in the Zen shop , they were extracted from the HOGG files that Cryptic use to store data , extracting information from the HOGG files is a real pain in the backside but if you really want to there's a tutorial here , just remember , those are your game client files so make copies of them to mess about with . http://teamventure.guildlaunch.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8298792

    You do? That's odd, the last two slots on my lvl 60 toons require zen to unlock.

    There should be a Frood of Neverwinter pack. You get a towel and a book.

    Those don't look the standard pictures that Cryptic uses for pictures on the Zen shop. The Zen store tends to lack backgrounds and show the various skins for companions in one picture.

    It's not implemented yet. Extra companion slots by level are part of the module 2 changes.

    That's cool. Well for me anyway. But I can already hear the seething retorts from people who purchased their slots with Zen when this goes live.

    One of them is right here.
    At least they will add active bonus and a mini game for them -.-

    As for the new pack, I was expecting some Thayan/Dread ring themed one. (even heard rumors about shadow wolf mount recently) The title "Hunter Ranger pack" and purple hawk on the test server makes me feel that's going to be something forest themed again...

    Shadow Wolf mount is coming next week. It is a reward from the CTA: Pit Fight event. At least that is what the calendar says.

    Yep, along with more cruel enchantments, barbarian themed weapons, and Grey Wolf Tribe dye packs.
