Bundle

From Guild Wars Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

A bundle is a large item which must be carried by a character in both hands. A character carrying a bundle will lose any benefits given from their weapon and or focus item and they cannot attack. A bundle cannot be carried between zones. While you carry a bundle your movement speed may be reduced. The name of bundles will be white in the interface.

Bundles are found in both PvP and PvE with various purposes, however most bundle items are associated with quest or mission objectives. There are also particular bundles that provide bonuses while being carried, and some have an effect when such items are dropped.

Item Spells are a skill type which can summon a bundle, used by the Ritualist profession. Certain skills of the Ritualist profession provide additional effects while holding bundles as well. These bundles are typically named as Ashes of X, where X is a historical person in Guild Wars lore.

A character can drop the item by clicking the 'Drop Item' button, or by assigning a specified key to the function.

[edit] Dropping

  • Pressing the Drop Item button.
  • Pressing the target lock button on the Hero Panel.
  • Switching to another weapon sets while holding of these items will cause that item to be dropped.
  • Casting another item spell will cause item to be dropped.
  • Picking up any other bundles while holding one will cause the item to be dropped.
  • If a user shadow steps while holding an item, the user will automatically drop the item before shadow stepping.
  • If a player under the effects of an item spell dies, that Item will be dropped.
  • When the item spell's duration has expired, the bundle will drop automatically.

[edit] Fragility

A special feature of bundles is that many of them will be destroyed simply by dropping them. This is more common on bundles that activate a skill when dropped, but exceptions exist for all variables.

[edit] Skills

A bundle can be associated with up to two skills; one affecting the character who carries the bundle and one who affects targets in an Area of Effect around the place the bundle was dropped. Some skills serve both functions, having different effects in the two situations. For a list of known skills, see List of bundle skills. There is generally no delay before drop effects, however Anguished Was Lingwah has a 1 second delay and Lively Was Naomei has a 3 second delay.
