    Just gathering feedback now, but here are some responses based on what I've read:

    1. Any aura that has a wisp would be split. If the aura doesn't have a wisp, this change won't apply to that aura. If you have an aura with a wisp now, after the change, you'll have the aura item AND the new wisp item. Using the Deluxe Toy Train Aura as an example, this would be split into the Toy Train Aura and the Toy Train Wisp. "Deluxe" as a term would no longer be in use.

    2. There will be an Aura slot (which, coincidentally is currently named "Wisp") and a Wisp slot. Auras would consist mostly of ground and player sparklies and wisps would consist mostly of orbiting satellites.

    3. Not sure what would be unfair about it, you'd still have the ability to make your character look the same as before the change and items which were only available for purchase would still only be obtainable via purchase.

    4. Wisps that are subjectively too far away will have their orbits adjusted (reduced).

    The update is cool!, But the unfair part is non deluxe stays non deluxe and deluxe becomes non deluxe + wisp.

    People who decided not to craft deluxe didnt had the option to turn of orbital wisp. And people with deluxe now get the option, while being able to use the wisp for other auras.

    Deleting deluxe concept is a good thing but straighten all auras deluxe or non deluxe to aura+wisp. Not just deluxe....

    Seems fair right? If this option was available since releases of deluxe everyone would have crafted the deluxe and then decided to unequip orbital wisp or enable wich wasnt a option before.

    For example,
    Deluxe toy train aura becomes> toy train aura + toy train wisp

    Non deluxe toy train aura becomes> toy train aura + toy train wisp.

    Making it fair to people who decided not to craft deluxe cause lack of option to disable orbital wisp.

    But now allowing everyone who decided to spend 1750 plat or their previous gold to get same items as people who crafted deluxe for 100k gold and some time.

    Quote again, there was no option to hide orbital wisp this is the reason people decided to go for normal. But maybe they would like to see the toy train wisp with surfer aura, and having payed for such aura should allow them to have same options as the one who crafted it to deluxe.

    This is what I'm wondering as well, Xing is more of a Wisp than an aura as it orbits around player.
