| | The event was scheduled to run from October 20th through November 2nd, but actually started earlier, on the evening of Saturday, October 18, 2008, as a surprise. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=12273059=#Post12273059] |

| The event is currently scheduled to run from October ??nd through November ?th.
| | == Overview == |
| ==Overview== | | The [[Halloween Event]] is a suite of gaming tasks and visuals that are reminiscent of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween Halloween holiday season]. This includes Trick or Treating, costumes, monsters, ghosts, witches, and horror movie cliches such as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_apocalypse Zombie Apocalypse]. |
|
| |
|
| For the 2008 version of this event, there are three main sections to the event. First, trick or treating from door to door returns, with some tweaking of the door timers to promote a more mobile version of trick or treat, and discourage door camping. Second, the Giant Monster zone spawns and eternal night have returned. And finally, a new "Zombie Apocalypse" zone event has been added, with massed hoards of zombies attacking random zones throughout the event.
| | === New in 2008 === |
| | *The [[Zombie Apocalypse]] is new in 2008. It includes new enemies, badges, and an unlockable player costume piece, the Pumpkin Head. |
| | *The door timers for the Trick or Treat game have been shortened to 10 seconds for a character so they can 'knock' more often, but the cool down for a particular door for a character has been raised to five minutes to keep players moving from door to door... just like real Trick or Treating. |
| | *The Tier 3 [[Inspiration]] Treats have been replaced by Tier 1 and 2 by the [[developer]]s [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=12305057 intentionally] -- presumably to prevent Tier 3 hoarding since more doors can be knocked versus previous years. |
| | *The list of zones in which the event is active has grown (see the Trick or Treat section below for a full list). |
|
| |
|
| In 2006, the event ran in all zones in the game except [[Recluse's Victory]], [[The Hive]], [[Cascade Archipelago]], [[The Chantry]], and [[The Storm Palace]]. The few zones where the event were not running were all zones for at least level 40 characters, so for any characters below level 40, literally every single accessible zone was running the event. For 2007 the new [[Faultline]], [[The Abyss]], and [[Rikti War Zone]] were also zones in which the event was not functional. For 2008, it has been confirmed on Test that [[Rikti War Zone]], at least, now has the event running this year.
| | === Bugs in 2008 === |
| | Spirit spawning was bugged in the 2008 event. They were spawning very rarely. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Number=12305057#Post12305057] |
|
| |
|
| ==Zombie Apocalypse==
| | [[Bloody Bay]] was bugged. It appears to be set to allow trick or treating for levels 10-20, but since all characters entering the zone are Sidekicked/Exemplared to level 25, they are no longer in the level range for trick or treating. |
| ===New Badges===
| |
| New: 4 new badges for zombie hoards (uses Rikti invasion engine)
| |
|
| |
|
| {{BadgeBox|Badge event halloween 2008 01.png|Glimpsed the Abyss|You've taken down 100 Zombie Minions, showing you have Glimpsed the Abyss.}}
| | == Eternal Night == |
| {{BadgeBox|Badge event halloween 2008 02.png|Safety in Numbers|You've taken out 33 Zombie Lietenants, proving that there is Safety in Numbers}}
| | During the event, the entire game is locked in nighttime mode. This is not just a visual effect. All aspects of the game that depend on a day/night cycle are locked to the night side during the event. Enemies that only spawn at night spawn continuously during the event. [[Banisher Badge|Banisher]], [[The Slayer Badge|The Slayer]], and [[Haunted Badge|Haunted]] badges (Hero side) and [[Pirate Badge|Pirate]] and [[Spectral Badge|Spectral]] badges (Villain side) are examples of badges for which hunting will be much easier during the event. |

| |
|
| |
|
| *Apocalypse Survivor grants access to the Pumpkin Head costume piece (Under Special Helmets).
| | Note that some zones, such as [[Cimerora]], [[The Hive]] and [[The Abyss]] are unaffected by Eternal Night. |

|
| ==Trick or Treat== | | == Notes == |
| During this event, players will be able to 'Trick or Treat' by clicking on mission doors in the various zones. Players can (''No longer valid. Need new door timing info''). If a door is successfully knocked, then either a treat is awarded usually in the form of a random inspiration or costume salvage, or else a trick, which will spawn various enemies in the immediate area.
| | *Testing for this event was on July 31st from 4:30-6pm Eastern |
|
| |
|
| Players have to Trick or Treat in a zone that matches their current effective level (See list below), or the doors would not give tricks or treats. [[Sidekick]]/Lackey and Exemplar/Malefactor can be used to allow Trick or Treating to work, and the [[Sidekick#PvP Zones|auto-exemplar]] of PvP zones mean that they will work for anyone high enough to enter them (except for Recluse's Victory, which has no functioning mission doors.) The [[Sidekick#PvP Zones|auto-exemplar]] of the Flashback System can also be used by high level characters to make themselves the appropriate level for any zone.

| ===Temporary Powers===
| | [[Category:Halloween Event]] |
| One of the treats is the [[Rock]] temporary power. It is a one use, ranged attack that does minor smashing damage. Matt Miller was the developer behind this homage to It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=general&Number=1646253]
| |
| | |
| {{PowerBox|Icon=Temp Melee Moderate.png|Name=Rock|Effect=Ranged Smashing Damage|Desc=You got a rock.}}
| |
| | |
| Knocking on doors can give a "Classic Costume" [[Temporary Powers|Temporary Power]]. These powers last for 13 days real time, are incompatible with any stealth powers, and cannot be used in PvP zones. For costume models that have a single gender (such as Carnie Harlequin or Strongman), activating the costume will force the apparent sex of the character to match. For costumes that have both genders (such as Crey Agent), the character will use the appropriate model. Finally, some of the costumes will have special animation built into it (such as Goldbricker and Sky Raider having animated flightpacks, PPD Hardsuit with rocket boots when in flight, Pirate having ghost-style flight, etc).

| === Free Costume Slot ===
| |
| | |
| The event gives the ability to unlock a free costume slot on any character. Which slot it opens depends on how many costume slots you have already unlocked. Costume slots are awarded incrementally...a level 1 will be awarded their second slot, while a level 50 with all four previous costume slots unlocked will unlock a fifth. This reward does not include a free costume change token; unless you have free costume change tokens left over from previous awards, you will have to pay normal [[influence]] or [[infamy]] costs to change the costume in this new slot.
| |
| | |
| To unlock this slot a player needs to gather one each of the four types of [[Event_Salvage#Halloween_Event_Salvage|Event Salvage]] that can be found through "Trick or Treating". You need one each of Statesman Mask, Lord Recluse Helmet, Back Alley Brawler Gloves, and Hamidon costume. All four then need to be brought to the appropriate Halloween contact for the character's game. [[Granny Beldam]] for villains and [[Annah]] for heroes. The contact will then unlock the free slot. There was a 35% chance of any Treat being a piece of event salvage, with even chances for which of the four types of event salvage is received.
| |
| | |
| ==== Event Salvage ====
| |
| | |
| ===== Back Alley Brawler Halloween Gloves =====
| |
| [[Image:Salvage BackAlleyBrawlerGloves.png|left]] [[Image:BAB-gloves.png|100px|thumb]]
| |
| '''Event Salvage'''
| |
| | |
| These are rubber Back Alley Brawler gloves, perfect for a Halloween costume. Their manufacture makes it difficult to perform simple tasks like opening doors. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.
| |
| {{clr}}
| |
| | |
| ===== Statesman Halloween Mask =====
| |
| [[Image:Salvage StatesmanMask.png|left]] [[Image:Statesmask.png|100px|thumb]]
| |
| '''Event Salvage'''
| |
| | |
| This is a Halloween mask of the famous hero Statesman. It's made of cheap plastic, and the flimsy string probably won't last through the night. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.
| |
| {{clr}}
| |
| | |
| ===== Lord Recluse Halloween Helmet =====
| |
| | |
| [[Image:Salvage RecluseMask.png|left]]
| |
| '''Event Salvage'''
| |
| | |
| This is a Halloween mask of the infamous Lord Recluse. It's made of smelly rubber, and wearing it makes you all sweaty and hard to find your breath. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.
| |
| {{clr}}
| |
| | |
| ===== Hamidon Halloween Costume =====
| |
| | |
| [[Image:Salvage HamidonCostume.png|left]]
| |
| '''Event Salvage'''
| |
| | |
| The most popular Halloween costume among the kids in Paragon City is that of Hamidon. This simple costume is made from coloured plastic wrap. Many kids like to put action figures of their favourite heroes inside the wrap, pretending they are 'raiding' for 'Hami-O's' Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.

| | |
| === Zones ===
| |
| Trick or Treating only worked if the player was in a zone with a level appropriate for their current combat level. The following are the appropriate levels for various zones:
| |
| | |
| ==== Heroes ====
| |
| :01 - 11 [[Atlas Park]]
| |
| :01 - 11 [[Galaxy City]]
| |
| :05 - 15 [[Kings Row]]
| |
| :05 - 15 [[The Hollows]]
| |
| :07 - 15 [[Perez Park]]
| |
| :10 - 20 [[Steel Canyon]]
| |
| :10 - 20 [[Skyway City]]
| |
| :11 - 20 [[Boomtown]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Independence Port]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Talos Island]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Striga Isle]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Terra Volta]]
| |
| :21 - 30 [[Dark Astoria]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Croatoa]]
| |
| :30 - 40 [[Brickstown]]
| |
| :30 - 40 [[Founders' Falls]]
| |
| :30 - 40 [[Crey's Folly]]
| |
| :33 - 40 [[Eden]]
| |
| :40 - 50 [[Peregrine Island]]
| |
| :40 - 50 [[Firebase Zulu]]
| |
| | |

| |
| :01 - 10 [[Mercy Island]]
| |
| :05 - 15 [[Port Oakes]]
| |
| :10 - 20 [[Cap Au Diable]]
| |
| :20 - 30 [[Sharkhead Isle]]
| |
| :25 - 40 [[Nerva Archipelago]]
| |
| :30 - 40 [[St. Martial]]
| |
| :40 - 50 [[Grandville]]
| |
|
| |
| ==== PvP (Both) ====
| |
| Since all [[PvP]] zones automatically [[Exemplar]] anyone entering to a specific level, anyone entering the zone is brought to a combat level appropriate to the zone, so all zones are appropriate for Trick or Treating for anyone of a high enough level to enter the zone.
| |
| | |
| :20 - 50 [[Siren's Call]]
| |
| :30 - 50 [[Warburg]]
| |
| | |
| {{Bug|[[Bloody Bay]] is currently bugged. It appears to be set to allow trick or treating for levels 10-20, but since all characters entering the zone are Sidekicked/Exemplared to level 25, they are no longer in the level range for trick or treating.}}
| |
| | |
| === Enemies ===
| |
| Note: none of these groups counted toward the non-Halloween badges available in the game normally. For example, these Fir Bolg do not count towards the Pumpkin Master/Mistress badge.
| |
| ==== Coven ====
| |
| | |
| The [[Coven]] is made up of witches also seen as the [[The Cabal|Cabal]] enemy group found in [[Croatoa]]. Note that this group is the most visually different from their normal in-game spawns of any of the Halloween mobs. The Cabal is primarily colored in shades of grey and black, while the Halloween Coven is much more colorful.
| |
| | |
| ==== Fir Bolg ====
| |
| | |
| [[Fir Bolg]] can also be found in [[Croatoa]] at the present. '''Note''' that there is '''no''' badge for defeating them.
| |
| | |
| ==== Spirits ====
| |
| | |
| Spectral Demons from the [[Circle of Thorns]] were used to create the [[Spirits]] faction.
| |
| | |
| ==== Vampires ====
| |
| | |
| [[Council]] vampyri were the models used to make up the [[Vampire|Vampires]] enemy group for the event.
| |
| | |
| ==== Werewolves ====
| |
| | |
| [[Council]] nightwolves and warwolves were the models used to make up the [[Werewolves]] faction for the event.
| |
| | |
| ==== Zombies ====
| |
| | |
| The [[zombies]] are [[Banished Pantheon]] soldiers.
| |
| | |
| ==== Unseelie Court ====
| |
| | |
| The [[Unseelie Court]] was a new enemy group for the 2006 event. They accompanied the random zone spawns of [[Eochai]] and [[Jack in Irons]].

| == Giant Monsters and Eternal Night ==
| |
| | |
| ===Eternal Night===
| |
| During the event, the entire game is locked in nighttime mode. This is not just a visual effect. All aspects of the game that depend on a day/night cycle are locked to the night side during the event. Enemies that only spawn at night spawn continuously during the event. [[Banisher Badge|Banisher]], [[The Slayer Badge|The Slayer]], and [[Haunted Badge|Haunted]] badges (Hero side) and [[Pirate Badge|Pirate]] and [[Spectral Badge|Spectral]] badges (Villain side) are examples of badges for which hunting will be much easier during the event.
| |
| | |
| === Eochai and Jack in Irons ===
| |
| There was a zone spawn of either Eochai or Jack in Irons in every zone in which the event is active. Once one is defeated, another of the two would spawn in the same zone within a minute or two. For each spawn, there was a 90% chance that it would be Eochai, and a 10% chance that it would be Jack in Irons. Additionally, Jack in Irons only spawned in level 20 and up zones.

| ==Badges==
| |
| | |
| Three new badges are available for this event, in addition to the badges from the [[Halloween Event 2004]] and [[Halloween Event 2006|2006]]. They are awarded for receiving faction costume [[Temporary Powers]] while trick or treating.
| |
| | |
| {{BadgeBox|Clothes Horse}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Fashionable}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Ostentatious}}
| |
| | |
| Note: receiving a duplicate costume will give no indication of the duplicate, but it will count towards the badges. Because of this, it will appear that less costume drops have occurred than are required for the badge.
| |
| | |
| All of the previous Halloween event badges are once again available as well.
| |
| | |
| {{BadgeBox|Hallow Spirit}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Hunter}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Buster}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Shifter}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Dead Head}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Malleus}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Iron Warrior}}
| |
| {{BadgeBox|Ghost Touched}}
| |
| | |
| ==Notes==
| |
| *New [[Badges]] added to this year's event do not have bars yet, but appear between the [[Sentry Badge|Sentry]] and [[Demolitionist Badge|Demolitionist]] badges.
| |
| | |
| *All [[Inspiration]] treats are "tier 3" (large).
| |
| | |
| *Note: Costumes are dropped independent of event salvage, meaning you can get both at once.
| |
| **While similar to Freakshow and Arachnos costumes, these DO NOT grant stealth or invisibility. Mobs will attack players who are wearing these costumes, even if it's a costume of their group.
| |
| | |
| *When Event Salvage is awarded as a treat, two Inspirations are also awarded.
| |
| | |
| *When Costume Powers are awarded, two Inspirations are awarded. In the case of receiving a duplicate costume, in which event you receive no notification of an award (Event Salvage, for example) in Global log, the two Inspiriations can be used as an indication of a Costume being awarded.
