Redeem Ark Hunter Codes With Defiance

Hello, Ark Hunters!

Want a chance to get some extra stuff for your Defiance character? Trion has opened up a new section of the Defiance website, launching the My Ego feature where players can enter in alphanumeric codes in return for levels and prizes to be distributed in-game. There are 120 codes in total, although only 21 of them have been discovered by the community as of this writing, sprawled all over the web in the form of Defiance advertisements, emails, etc. The codes unlock a variety of rewards for the account, including extra inventory slots, permanent weapon skill buffs, and exclusive titles.

If you want, you can try to search the internet high and low for the codes, or you can just keep track of this Google document and enter in the codes as they are discovered. Defiance is scheduled to ship this year.

UPDATE: The Google Document above has been made private. Instead, you can find the Defiance ARK codes here at the Orkz Video Game Wiki.

Neverwinter Presents $200 Exclusive Race

Those of you who played Star Trek Universe may remember the controversy that Cryptic Studios caused by encouraging players to purchase multiple copies of the game in order to take advantage of the retailer-specific cosmetic items upon launch. If you wanted to get your hands on the Next Generation Enterprise, as well as an adorable Tribble, you had to buy one copy from Best Buy and one from Gamestop. If you didn’t, according to Cryptic, you would have to go without them. Shortly after launch, Cryptic launched most of the items on to the cash shop, to the uproar of the game’s community.

So with a couple of years behind them and a brand new MMO (and parent company), what has Cryptic learned from Star Trek Online? Judging by today’s pre-order bonus pack, nothing. Kotaku revealed that players will be able to choose from several packages ranging in price from $20 up to the inglorious $200 Hero of the North Founder’s Pack. The packages range in goods, from bags to exclusive mounts, titles and bigger head-starts, the usual fray. The $200 package has something players should immediately sniff out as suspicious: an exclusive race.

Exclusive access to ‘Menzoberranzan Renegade’, a Drow playable race like the legendary ranger Drizzt Do’Urden, complete with unique racial abilities and tattoo

Cryptic has pulled this stunt before, claiming an item to be pre-order package dependent and then going forward and placing it on the cash shop at a significantly reduced price anyway. Knowing Cryptic, the appearance of the exclusive race on the cash shop is just about inevitable. An exclusive race, and a whole lot of lock boxes.
