Costume Question: "Spider" Pattern

Hi folks,

I have a question regarding a costume pattern I saw the other night. I saw a low level villain donning a pattern that was most definitely a spider pattern. It spanned across the sides of the thighs up onto the side of the chest. To two halves combined formed a giant spider on each side of the costume.

Now I figured it was just some new pattern they added within the last few patches, so I never asked him where he got it. However I cannot find it within the costume creator. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get it? I don't have any screenshots to go by or anything so I hope my description was clear enough.

By the way the villain was *not* a VEAT, that was the first thing I checked, also had only a few vet badges and very little else..

Would really match my Widow, so I'm hoping someone can help me.

It's the "Sinister" pattern, and I know it came with the GvE edition, but am not sure if by now others can access it.

That would be the "Sinister" pattern, available (with the Justice costume set) with either the Good vs. Evil version of the game, or as part of the G v E Goodie Pack.

There is a "Sinister" texture as well as pattern. Sinister also comes with gloves (w/ or w/out armguards), shoulder pads, and boots (w/or w/out shinguards).

I tend to use the Sinister Boots (w/out guards) a lot, and I've gotten some good use out of the Sinister gloves (also w/out guards).

I've gotten a ton of use out of the various Justice pieces, too.

And the Jump Jet.

And the Pocket D Teleporter.


New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)

Oh alright, yes i see it now on the costume page.. Didn't look closely enough hehe.

Thank you both for the replies, that's actually the first time I've ever noticed anyone use that pattern, odd being as how its fairly old now.

Which is probably the main reason you haven't seen it much. Most costume options get used the most in the first 6 months after they come out, then slowly see less and less use as things replace them. I actually once planned on making a character named Fashion Plate that would wear the "hot" look each time a new one was added.
