So does anyone know for sure if I have to buy 4000 worth of gems with game cards or can I use gold in game to get 4000gems and get the rewards? Because if I have to buy gem cards in order to get it that’s extremely unfair for people like me who work hard in game to get the gold to trade in(which is at a very unfair exchange rate atm) and cant spare the money irl to get gem cards, if it is gem cards, way to push a lot of your core players who cant afford that irl, away anet.

It is for those who spend real cash on the gems only. It’s ANet’s way of thanking players who contribute real money to them. You might feel it’s unfair, but one group of players is paying for ANet’s ongoing staff wages and other expenses, the other isn’t.

Will either of these be tradeable? or do they both come account bound.

Thanks

I don’t think they’ve said whether the items would be account bound or not, but I think that’s a fair assumption to make at this point.

You must use gem cards or credit cards to acquire the gems. Converting gold into gems does not count.

Is the quaggan back pack a one time use item? I doubled clicked on it to equip it and it acted like it was a skin and could only be used once. I was hoping it was like the zenith skins and you could use it over and over.

No, it is indeed a “normal” skin. You can still transmute it to another backpiece though.

ok…what transmute item do I need to use so that I don’t destroy the back pack. I have never transmuted things before.

You need transmutation crystals, which you can buy in the gem store.

sigh, thank you opening poster i was wondering this myself
spent over 4k gems last month.. other people started getting their gifts in the game-mail
this is just another nail in the coffin, i spend hours on this game and refuse to spend real world money on it until ArenaNet starts treating their casual gamers with the same amount of consideration as they do their flavor of the month cash-crop customers

when i’m done on an issue

Casual gamers had every chance to purchase 4,000 Gems to get the exclusive bonuses. So in essence, both Casuals and Hardcores are treated the same. And just remember, purchasing Gems is completely optional. If you don’t want to spend any money on this game, you’re free to convert in game Gold for Gems.

hugely disappointing, it works in theory but if they are going to offer real world money items then sell them for real world money not gems.. and if they want to make it some seasonal thing, then offer 3 ‘tri colored keys’ or something with corresponding redemption codes.. each containing something trivial but all 3 being used to open some actual prize at some given time, after wintersday for example. as it stands, some people are feeling frustrated over the credit issues

I know quite a few people who bought the 4000 who didn’t get sparkles and people who only bought 800 and did get sparkles. Kind of a slap in the face to those who went ahead and threw down the money.
