== Overview ==
The pre-order version of [[Going Rogue (Boxset)]] was made available in March 2010, several months before the expansion's release (in conjunction with the release of [[Issue 18]].  There were two types of pre-orders available: An extended use for a couple of Going Rogue's featured power sets and a pre-order from Gamestop. The pre-order from Gamestop included a code that grants 5 special [[enhancements]] for all level 1 characters on that account and, for USA customers only, a Razor Sphex mousepad that features an image of [[Desdemona]].


== Extended use of Power Sets ==
The Pre-Order Enhancements are now available from the [[P2W Vendor]].
The extended use unlocked [[Dual Pistols]] and [[Demon Summoning]] several months prior to Going Rogue's release.

When a character reaches level 20, the enhancements will cease activating their [[Proc]] effects.
'''How do the enhancement bonuses work?'''
 
Much like Invention Origin Enhancements, these enhancements provide an unchanging bonus towards the respective effects. This is affected by Enhancement Diversification like any other enhancement.
 
'''What about the chance to cause damage?'''
From levels 1 to 20 the enhancement provides a chance to cause a small amount of additional damage. After level 20 this chance will no longer occur. In other words, the enhancements will cease activating their [[Proc]] effects, but they will retain their enhancement bonuses.
 
'''Are the enhancements tradeable?'''
 
No. They are marked in-game as 'Not Tradeable', so cannot be transferred to other characters, sent by in-game email, or placed on the Auction House.
 
'''Note:'''  With [[Issue 21]], these enhancements will be a part of the [[Paragon Rewards Program]].

What about the chance to cause damage?

From levels 1 to 20 the enhancement provides a chance to cause a small amount of additional damage. After level 20 this chance will no longer occur. In other words, the enhancements will cease activating their Proc effects, but they will retain their enhancement bonuses.

Are the enhancements tradeable?

Note: With Issue 21, these enhancements will be a part of the Paragon Rewards Program.
