You're paying $10 for 4 emotes and a Prestige Sprint.
The preview videos at the store site look great. Love the leap in ninja run! Love the new swords in dual blades! Love the glimpses of the costume options!

I've got a whole host of alts who are gonna look great with the new costume pieces, I'm sure.

I'd love to see *all* the boosters combined for about $25, that might be worth it to me. Or have them all as a special convention-code prize...

And several costume parts, and it looks like Ninja Run is a lot more than just a prestige Sprint. It's probably slower than Super Jump, but it looks like it may be faster than Fly.

Ooooo, looks like it might be nice. I still have to get the last booster though. I'll probably get this one too. I like supporting the company with extra money.
We need Stats on Ninja Run, screen shots of the costume parts, new blades????!!!
Come on folks, I'm stuck here at work and drooling . . .
6000+ levels gained and 8 level 50's

These look like new swords to me, are they?

Raw stats on a level 13 character with a DO in Swift.
Running speed with Swift: 18.97 mph
Running speed with Swift + Sprint: 27.44 mph
Running speed with Swift + Sprint + Ninja Running: 43.17 mph (yes, they stack)
I tried to use Ninja Running on a newly created level 1, but it appears you need to be at least some level above level 4 and 13. I suspect it opens up at level 6. It was available on my level 13.
The running style is interesting as your character runs with one arm across her chest, the other arm extended behind her. When she jumps across any obstacle (fences, garbage cans), she flips in midair.
This power alone is worth it since it really does enable you to forgo travel powers altogether if you have this and say the GvE jump pack.
If I'm not mistaken, 43.17 is close to the speed of unslotted super speed.
That... Ninja Run is incredibly unfair, especially for a power we get at level one. It's twice the speed of Sprint, gives a massive jump height bonus (500% and over) and just gives owners of this pack a HUGE advantage. And I'm saying this as someone who has it. Why even use Sprint at all now?

That said I never liked the Enderance Suck of Sprint and since I can't remember most of the time to turn it off I don Have it on! Now Is Ninja Run and Auto power like Swift? If so that is super awesome, is it over powered? I don't think so but then again I don't think that Travel power [once with motion only] can be over powered they are just movement, a good part of the time Sprint can let you run away from a mob, so anything else is just Gravy.

I've seen it in action. It's not quite Super Speed, but it's a HELL of a lot faster than anything you can get short of a travel power, and with a lot of air mobility, too. Speed it up a bit, give it a bit more air and it IS a travel power on par with Super Jump easily. It just seems... Unfair that they're handing that around without a power pick at level 4 in a paid booster pack. On of the BIG things with Booster Packs is that they've had anything that gave any real, big gameplay benefits, and this does.

The numbers look good.
The look is ridiculous.
Once again, I'm torn between my minmax habits and my good looks.

Yeah like that is ever going to happen. No one ever sees a ninja, and if they do. . . It's too late.
