  1. Or.. whenever you do the Halloween Trial, the reward table has "5 Treats". Clicking on that usually gives at least one Temp Costume. Then use that to run the Trial again for the other rewards and badges.
  2. It's been dying for 5 years! At this rate, it will be gone in another 6!

    Doom!
  3. You only need the costume 'on' at the time of defeat.
  4. Spawning zombies:

    1. After Abomination is active move yourselves and it to the graveyard.

    2. Do not superspeed or fly.

    3. Keep moving slowly around the whole graveyard.

    I believe it's 30 seconds after the phase expires.

    I'm quite OK with putting in the work that is a third of the time and effort of a Sister Psyche TF, which gives 50 Merits, and still getting 'only' 50 Merits out of it instead of a A-Merit.
  7. It's Shamrock Shakes and McRib Sandwiches all over again!!!
  8. Those doors were originally made from a recycled wardrobe...
  9. All the costume powers acquired during the Halloween Event are the Temporary versions.

    Any mention of the Permanent ones is with regard to the Halloween Trial where there is a badge for defeating The Abomination while 'wearing a costume'. For that badge requirement, you can be 'wearing' a temporary or permanent costume power.

    So I guess our rl commitments and lifespans are limiting factors.
    And limited by how long it takes to complete the Trial.

    And it's more lucrative to have a bunch of alts and have each run the Trial once a day for the 2 Emps rather than grinding the same alt through and getting only 1 Emp after the first.
  11. So, Long Range Teleport does not have Peregrine as a destination?
  12. Type this in the command line: [Wolf Pet]

    Then click on it....

    You keep using that word. I don't think it means you what you think it means.

    However, I just did it on another toon and 'put on' the costume for The Abominations last 10% HP and still got the badge. So, you just need to have it on when he's defeated.

    It's a *trial*. By definition it's for teams.


    To the OP: Create your own team of four and have the leader sign up for the trial and you all will be together.


    To all: It's 4 min/max for balance purposes.

    No, they don't.

    But some zone's foliage looks browner and more 'changing' than others.

    The characters alignment was erased.
    Yes, I know.

    That's why I said I'm going to reconfirm *again*.

    Or should I say that more slowly?

    On Ustream, TheNet confirmed that it is 4 players only (4 min / 4 max) and that the in-game text is the bug.
  21. So, I'll just run my toons that do the SSA for Alignment Merits through the reaffirmation process again and pick up easy Merits and an Alignment Merit along the way to making them eligible again for the easy once-a-week Alignment Merits.

    I'm not upset. Easy A-Merits is easy A-Merits regardless of source.

    If I was exploiting this with disposable toons, I guess this would be upsetting. But I wouldn't be so stupid as to publicly complain my obvious exploit was shut down.
  22. The BACKSPACE key is bound to: /autoreply which is a command that only works in binds or macros. It begins chat with the /t command and the name of the person who last sent a /tell.

    Rebinding BACKSPACE as Wintry has it will work.

    Not that I know of. I'm going to try to get a zombie to pop out at each grave and see if that does it.

    No one knows yet. The [Wolf Pet] hasn't been advertised yet, it was player-discovered.
  24. Titan Weapons was said by a CS on Facebook Fridays that it's currently available on Test at the same time the Halloween Event was on Test. That doesn't mean that the two are linked. It could be a coincidence that the two were scheduled for Test at the same time.

    And then it turned out that either the CS Rep was mistaken, or, there was a glitch and Titan Weapons was not available on Test anyway.

    And even if they were, no one would have been able to use them since the Store isn't running on Test.
