Wisps aura gone?
I believe it was announced that the Wisp Aura was going away, as a new option, shortly after the switch to the NCSoft Launcher. Any character that already claimed the aura, gets to keep it.

I was just going to create a new character and noticed that the wisps aura is gone from the 'auras' section of the character creator (I've only the Cyborg pack auras available now). I've made several characters with the wisps aura, including one from about a week and a half ago (which still can access it at Icon).
I've restarted the NCSoft Launcher, CoH, and logged into then out of a character (to see if that'd cause the unlock to retrip), but no luck. Any ideas? |

That seems like a definite possibility! It's showing as down for me also (well, it gives me the option to buy new slots, but not redeem the slot I still have to place!). Hopefully it'll be back once the store is up.

[QUOTE=Kitsune Knight;3846894]According to the Announcements, this happened on the 4th, which is well before I made the last character with it... I thought it was only for people that hadn't unlocked it at all.
Hmm interesting interpretation. I took it to mean a per character, and not account, claim. I like your thought process better.

Just off the top of my head, is the Wisp aura treated as a 'regular' aura where you can only access it after you unlock auras at level 30? The booster packs you paid money for make their costume parts (capes, auras) available at level 1.

Once the in-game story is back up we'll be able to tell definitively one way or the other!

Yeah, I've definitely had the Wisp Aura as an option on new characters since they stopped that whole promotion period, so... I'm pretty sure that it is granted to the account... and it not showing up is due to some other weirdness (very possibly the account store).
We'll soon find out... (hopefully!!).

I thought the Wisp aura was unlocked for the account, so it being missing while there's a problem with the Account Server seems to be a reasonable correlation.
Teams are the number one killer of soloists.
And, for whatever it is worth, I just checked and I still have the Wisps Aura as an option for new characters.

And yes, it is probably tied to the Account Server problems.

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
