I'm not sure why it's useless after level 4. I mean, it's faster than fly at all levels. Unless you're playing a toggle-heavy character you could, in theory, just use the rocket board instead of a travel power from 1 to 50 and be fine. You might LOOK silly doing it on some characters, but that's another matter.

That backpack is retardedly expensive. I mean that in the nicest way. It needs to come down or go on sale before I'll consider buying it. This is coming from someone who has every other pack (and I got them when they were $9.99 and not 400 points). Yes even the origins and party packs.

That backpack alone is $1.00. Meaning that backpack is worth 1/5 of an entire costume pack now that may have 50-80 costume pieces. I know people have spent that money on it. But there are lots of things on the market right now that I'm not going to touch at their current prices. This backpack is among them (other things include costume slots and enhancement slots).

And before you suggest I use my monthly points on it, I'm saving those for powersets that come out -- and packs like the Barbarian pack which I actually did buy because it's fairly priced.

Yeah, that board is quite annoying w/ toggle toons. :-(

But hey, it's a non-power-slot using fly!

I would also be one of those "I has it allz!" accounts when it comes to the addon packs. When I saw the new stuff I about faceplanted on my poor KB. I'm not sure I'd get them if they were Free honestly.

I've been unable to log into the game since Thursday (password issues) and I don't want to miss out on the deal.

I also noticed today that there is a countdown timer on both the Character Transfer and the Beam Rifle Powerset in the store itself showing how long the sale is good for.

Additionally, the link at the bottom of my sig takes you to a thread which contains a link to a spreadsheet of every item in the store, and costume options can be sorted into which pack they belong to in "List" view.
