I used aim and Build Up with my rock and scored a whopping 66 pts of humiliation on an even level Rikti minion! That alone ought to be payback enough for what they did to Paragon City.

I created an account just to join the bandwagon on this. This game and its Devs are gems.

My rock kept leaving my tray whenever I zoned/logged, but it was still there under the powers list when I came back.
Actually, I had two rocks listed under temp powers, logged out and back in, and only had one! I panicked and ran to hamidon to throw it before it left, and once i threw it it was still there and I got to throw it the second time (then it vanished). Maybe they combined or something.

P.S. The rock doesnt QUITE one-shot hamidon, to my debt earning misfortune

I called my pet rock George.

Laughed so hard when I got my first rock. The nearby 5th who's head I threw it at found it considerably less amusing.

Funniest moment is when my ToT team saved up a bunch of rocks and in a moment of silliness used them to stone a witch that came through the door.

Yah, none of my rocks remained after I logged out so I have no rocks. but I DO have full sets of halloween badges on 10 characters and a few misc badges here and there.

Amazingly fun event. Not a time, influence or anything else sink. Just plain halloweeny fun. Nice treats and very nice tricks. Thank you Cryptics Studio.

Idea (may have been mentioned):

Make the (the incredibly cool) "rock" the accolade power for the halloween badges. Usual 25 min recharge time. Heck even bump down the damage if you like.

To balance it for those that didn't get the badges... perhaps an alternate badge combination that requires more work than the halloween event (which just about any of the normal badges require).

Thanks again. I had a blast.

The I shall call him George bit is from a Bugs Bunny cartoon about the abominabl snow monster. When he catches Bugs he says "My own little bunny rabbit. I shall hug him and squeeze him and love him and pet him and call him George. "

"Accualy" The "I will call him George" is a reference from "Of Mice and Men" by Steinbeck. The Bugs Bunny cartoon referenced that.

My question is what do rocks have to do with halloween? Many things may be thrown, eggs and TP, but rocks?

Was this supposed to be about stoning witches and other monsters to death? I just don't get it.

It's from "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." CB went trick or treating, and got a rock instead of candy. Good grief!!!

so when are they going to make the rock an accolade power for getting all six halloween badges? Because we all know they have absolutely no choice but to do so.

oh snaps, if i realized i got the rock trick or treating, i wouldn't have thrown it at that stupid vahzilok!

I was in my Superman tribute/Halloween costume during ToT, and whenever anyone in my group announced that they got a rock, I would scream 'KRYPTONITE! ARRRGH!'

Was funny the first couple of times.....

I know I shouldn't laugh at that what with how many have actually been stoned to death in history, but lord is that a funny thing to envision.

I really wish I had saved my rock and gone to Atlas to one shot a thug. That would've been priceless:

"Dude! You just knocked that guy out cold!"
"Yeah, well....he had a loaded gun..."
"You hit him with a rock! In the head!!!"
"...he was stealing an old lady's purse, man..."
"IN....THE...HEAD!!!"
"Old....lady!!!"

Good times in CoH.

I wish they would give us "A Rock" as a basic power like brawl. I only got 1 rock and I chucked it at a villain, that was the best. "You are such wimp, I will chuck this rock at your head" and my character snatched up the rock and threw it with such style, the guys in Outbreak can't compete.
