By the way, those who pre-register a character (must be at least level 61) before June 13 gets a special Destiny gift package which features:
- Lil Symphony pets
- Angelic Alphabet Damage Skin
- Heap of Melody Coins
- Magician of the Sacred Forest outfit

- Hero, Paladin, Dark Knight
- Arch Mage (Fire/Poison), Arch Mage (Ice/Lightning), Bishop
