Managed to buy it and upgrade account, eventually. Pretty insane page loading. This 'perk' must be selling really well.

one small grumble about this set (now that I have access to it), the fact that you cannot change your toons hair color seperately (dunno if hats have always bee like that since I have never used them before) or perhaps it is a glitch with this set?

Has anyone bought this pack via purchasing the MAC edition or other CoX edition?

I am picking this up, but just wondering how silly I will feel seeing as 95% of my characters are mutation origin and I can only think of one that is Magic based. Oh well, I will just enjoy the new costume options.

Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

I tried to buy the pack, didn't get the picture for "enter these letters", went back and did it again...and got charged twice. John @ NCSoft was very polite and will be reversing it (hasn't happened yet).

Anyway, you have to go in and apply the serial code through your main NCSoft account- I did that and have the items.

Aaaah thanks much Sevenpenny!
Works fine now, let me know ingame if you need help on Champion or Pinnacle =)

One word of caution:

While purchasing this pack and you click on the Confirm purchase button....and it takes so long that your browser window times out...do not hit refresh or you will have bought to packs like me

Not to big of a deal for me, I had another account that I was able to apply the second one to.

Seconded and thirded except for the fact that I only have one account, and it glitched and said that I bought two codes. Click once, and get two emails saying "you have purchased..."

[/ QUOTE ]
Oh this is good....I've now got 3 extra ones.

Can we do anything with extras?

So... Due to the APPARENT popularity of the magic pack - judging from how the billing server is so overloaded that it's melting down like the Terra Volta Reactor, do you think we might get more of these magic packs pls??? And use the money to buy a new and better billing server?

[QR] I received an "Error Lost Connection to Server please retry" screen, and did so.

Then got sent to main store screen with "An error has occurred. Please try again. If this problem persists, please contact support@ncsoft.com"

And discovered I had been charged for two booster packs.

Awaiting response from NCSoft.

You know, I really loved the Cyborg Pack. Used bits of the costume pieces on many characters. But this pack is even better. The costume bits are wonderful, the costume change emotes are AWESOME and the Tarot reading power is pretty amazing.

If the future Super Booster packs continue on this trend line, I'm pretty sure my head will explode at some point.

BABs just posted regarding a costume change slash command.

/cc_e [costumeSlotSlot#] [emoteName]

There are a couple of important notes. One, the costume slot numbers start with 0. So your first costume slot is 0, your 2nd is 1, 3rd is 2, etc. Two, you need to use the actual emote name, not the display name that you see in the costume select screen's rollout. For the magic pack, these are:

* CCPrestoChango - “Presto Chango”
* CCLightning - “Lightning”
* CCSpin - “Spin”
* CCCast - “Cast”


Example:
/cc_e 1 cclightning

I bought the pack. Anyone know what that skull face (fourth promo pic) is under?

It's not any of the normal skull heads/masks as far as I know. I tried using the Magic hat (same as in the picture) to see if that triggered that face but I can't seem to duplicate that skull.

NVM - I think I figured it out using existing stuff.

Well, took an hour, but finally got to submit the CC info page before that security image expired.

...That's actually one of my character's battle cry.

His name, oddly enough, is "a wizard".

Very frustrating... been trying for at least 2 hours and all I get is ... "The image has expired. Please try again." AAaaarrrrhhhggg!!! Curses, foiled again!

If its broke, don't fix it... I like the chaos!

hope you didn't end up with 3 extras like I did.

Can we get a refund on these? It did say "try again" after all....

I love this magic booster! All the costumes look so elegant!

My one disappointment is that you can't use the shoulder fur on the tights or tops with skin settings. One of my costume slots was dedicated to a formal dress and I wanted that fur for it. Oh well.

Ok people... back away from your computer very slowly... no, don't move.



At least not until "I" can get my pack man... come'on!

If its broke, don't fix it... I like the chaos!
