Is the Volcanic Aura new? Never noticed it myself till just now.

Also, as VIPs do we need to pay for the signature arc? Or is that just Premiums and below?

Thanks GG!

Now how about that Volcanic Aura? Looks pretty cool. Pele herself come to life.

If it is new, I can't seem to purchase it. It is not in the store, and it gives me an unknown sku if I try to buy it in icon.

I was first seeing it on a character sub 30, so wasn't sure if it was a new freebie or something I'd long missed as all the other legacy auras were also listed as locked. But just checked on one of my 50's and yup, look like that's one of the new pieces either on the store or coming Soon(tm)

Any input yet on how it looks? Seems like it might fit in thematically with the new signature arc.

I think the new aura makes great water, but it doesn't really make good lava.

IMO of course

You can play with it yourself on any level character currently in the costume creator. I thought it looked pretty good myself. Don't know if I have anyone to use it on yet. And not sure if it is a glowtech aura--i.e. if you'd see the lava sloshing around and bubbling even if you went into a dark corner. May just have to buy it to see.

On a related note, based on the shapes it makes, would love to have an inverted version of this aura. ie. just how several powersets have both dark and light versions, I'd love a dark volcano option. Got a black oozey character that would have great fun with that!
