Magic Capes and magic pack

If I buy the magic bundle, do I also get the magic capes?

If that is the case, why does the cape pack cost more than the bundle?

Do you mean if you buy the Magic costume bundle, do you get the Origins capes? If this is what you meant, no, they are separate purchases.

If you're talking about something else, can you please clarify.

As Aggelakis said, the Origins cape pack is completely separate. The original Magic Booster had a high-collar cape, so I would *assume* that's included in the Paragon Market version, but I can't personally confirm it.

As others have said, the High Collared Mantle and matching cape patterns are included with the Arcane bundle. The Auras, power(s) and emotes included with old-style Super Boosters are NOT included in the Costume bundles, so all you're getting is the costume sets.

The Origins Pack has the same items it had when released before the Market was added: One cape and two auras themed for each of the five origins. I believe the point cost is close to, if not the same as, the original cost of the pack.

Auras are typically more expensive than costume pieces, so this bundle having 10 auras may account for its higher price.

The Origins bundle only contains the five capes. It's 400pp. The auras are sold separately, individually, but I forget how much they are.

Really? I thought that one included the auras. That's a kind of steep price then - it puts the capes at $1 each at the discounted bundle price.

For clarification, I meant the high-collar mantle.

The High collar mantle pack costs 440 points, while the magic bundle costs 400

That is why I asked.

Yes, it is cheaper to just get the whole bundle.

For a comparison from the old packs to the new bundles, see the following google spreadsheet:

400 points for the bundled capes, 800 points (80pp x 10 auras) for the auras (and there is no bundle for them).

You basically save 100 points for buying the 5 capes (separately 100pp x 5 capes) as a bundle.

It's one of the many traps that exist for no other reason that to prove that people who make marketing decisions tend to be jerks.

The person in question isn't a marketing person, it is the Business Manager: Ghost Falcon.

Besides the devs told us back in July/August that if we wanted anything from the Boosters that we should buy them before the end of August because there was going to be a price increase once Freedom launched.

It's hardly a trick when they announced it was going to happen.

Yep. It's 500pp if they're bought separately, which means the bundle saves a buck 25.

Anyone else read the title and think "we need a magic dance?"
