There's a lot of information out about redeeming the mysterious Hooded Shroud of Shadows, but we wanted to just put out a few reminders to get people ready for the big day tomorrow!
Will players still need to call a GM to get their Hooded Shroud of Shadows once they have their confirmation code?
That was our initial plan, but as our pre-sale orders skyrocketed far beyond our expectations, we decided to develop an automated system for distributing these shrouds.
So how exactly will I get the Hooded Shroud of Shadows?
The first thing you'll need to do is either upgrade your account to Age of Shadows or start a new Age of Shadows account, since shrouds will only be given to AoS-upgraded accounts!
As soon as you log in with your upgraded account, you’ll get a gump that will ask you to enter your validation code for the shroud. That’s the code you got from the retailer – either on a sticker when you picked up your copy of AoS, or on the shipping confirmation email if you got it by mail. Type it in carefully! Once you enter that code, you’ll find your Hooded Shroud in your bank box. Depending on the number of people claiming their shroud simultaneously, the gump may take a few seconds to appear, so please be patient.
Shouldn't I have gotten my code already?
We’ve heard that a few retailers gave out the stickers early to people who pre-ordered, but most of them will be waiting until the actual day their shipments come in. So don’t panic – you should get it when you get your game.
What if I get my game, and I’ve still gotten no code, and no sticker?
If this happens, you’ll need a scanned or faxed copy of your pre-order register or shipping receipt. Then go to this link. Choose Ultima Online and Age of Shadows as the product. For fastest service, choose Ultima Online Billing & Accounts as the category, and Buying/Joining Ultima Online as the sub-category. (Keep in mind that it’s still one shroud per AoS purchase! Any players who try to claim more than one shroud per purchase may lose all shrouds and find their account disciplined.)
Is it one shroud per shard? Per account? Per box purchase?
We’re awarding one shroud per purchase of the Age of Shadows box – but it’s also limited to one per account. In other words, if you buy 2 boxes of Age of Shadows, you will get two shrouds – but you will not be able to redeem them on the same account. If you buy only one box for Age of Shadows (even if you have two or more accounts), you will only be able to collect one shroud.
Can I transfer these between characters or shards?
Once the shrouds are claimed, they are transferable between characters – but not between shards. In other words, don’t pick a shroud on a shard that’s not your regular shard!
Can I give my shroud code to a friend?
You can, but with a few caveats. One - each code is only good for one shroud, so you and your friend can't both get a shroud off of your code. And two - shrouds will only be awarded to accounts that are upgraded to Age of Shadows. And three - remember only one shroud will be awarded per account!
As of this posting, your last chance to get the Hooded Shroud in time for the North American release is fading quickly - click here for the list of participating retailers!
