The White Bonus Spirit (the "Bonus" here is intentional; for an explanation, see below) set is a unique armor set for the Zhanhu Hero exclusively obtainable during the Theater of Bones event.
Additional Notes[]
- This armor set was not originally intended to be obtainable by Players, as it was meant to be the cosmetic look of the White Bone Spirit NPC, the main antagonist of the Theater of Bones Halloween Event (Trailer). However, due to a bug, the set could be obtained like any other legendary gear by scavenging the battlefield after a match or scavenging gear using steel or scavenger crates.
- Originally Ubisoft intended to fix said bug and remove the armor set from players inventories. However after much uproar in the community that demanded it to be kept, Ubisoft gave in and made it officially obtainable during the event only, promising a touch-up pass later down the line.[1] This included fixing clipping issues, especially on the default body type 1 as the set had only ever been intended for the alternate body type 2, and giving it a name and a preview visual for the gear select screen, both of which were previously bugged.
- As a reference to this armor set not originally being intended for release, the Devs seem to have jokingly named the set "White Bonus Spirit" due to the armor set being a bonus set of customization offered during the season/event.
- Note that the armor set does not support custom colors, materials, paint patterns, symbols or embossings. It does however support ornaments, which are placed on the shoulders as normal. The armor set also uses the same model for its headgear on both body types.
- The event game mode and the armor set are inspired by the 16th century Chinese novel "Journey to the West" (Chinese: 西遊記)[2], also featuring Sun Wukong, whom the Shaolin hero skin "Monkey King Wukong" is based upon.
