Bundle

From Guild Wars Wiki

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

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.

[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.

[edit] Notes

• Teleportation will not cause a character to drop a bundle, but shadow stepping will.
• Herald's Insignia provides +10 armor when a character is holding an item.
• Unlike inventory items, bundles cannot be put into a player's inventory
