    Default +20 hearts

    Can we get a statement on these will work to switch to the warlock class or not? Otherwise people might feel it is a bait and switch.

    How would that be a "bait and switch" scenario? "Hi, we're introducing a new class, but the only way you can get it is to use a +20 heart"? So it won't be available to roll up from scratch or either Vet Status?

    No people will be thinking they can switch to a level 20 right away and may not be able to and in the past vet status and hearts didn't work on the new classes

    In the past we didnt have +20 hearts when they introduced new classes.
    It should work correctly, as some people bought back in the day a bunch of +1 hearts and got artie plife day 1.

    It's too early for that. They still have to put otto boxes and epic otto boxes on sale, then preview warlock on lamma. Then put otto boxes and +20 hears on sale at 20% off. THEN announce that they can't be used with warlocks.

    It's pretty simple if you buy one of the +20 hearts will you be able to switch let's say your 20th level fighter to a level 20 warlock on the day they are released or will they be locked out from that and vet status like classes were in the past.

    iirc, you couldn't use vet status or lesser hearts on arties when they came out.

    Why would anyone think it is a bait and switch though? Is Warlock coming out next week?

    So where are they implying that you can, or can't switch to them where you'd be baited into thinking you can when you can't? In fact, is there any concrete evidence about it at all, other than it may be coming soonTM?

    It seems to me that they were pretty clear about Iconics when they were first released what you could and couldn't do with them, and the people that wouldn't be informed would be the people that didn't read the updates or come to the forums. Since those people wouldn't come to the forums to read this thread, if they're not coming now, why would they, how's it going to benefit them?

    Even in this thread with as few posts as there are there is one thinking the hearts would work

    My point being, we have absolutely no information on them right now. The last time they added classes, the Iconics, they were specific about what you couldn't and couldn't do. If they follow that pattern, there can be no "bait and switch", and frankly, worrying about that at this stage is putting the cart before the horse.

    They are,putting out the heart right now with no information on the class so,people would be buying the heart hoping they could use it and then they might find out they can't. Do you finally see the point?

    Sorry but thats a terrible point to try and accuse them of bait and switch. A sale that is now you are linking to a class that has no release date?

    It will not work when warlock comes out based on prior precedent, but I agree Turbine should specifically state that since it's fairly close to the release of warlock. It's no different than the button of winning. They don't object if they get a few sales from people that don't have a clue what is going on.

    Arrow Valid Question

    Having been around long enough to witness many of Turbine's antics, Uska is asking a valid question.

    I am not sure why most of the posters are being so obtuse.
