Judging from the thread title, I thought this was going to be a discussion about what to do when you get a Rock when trick-or-treating. Oh Well.
I will check the Wiki.
"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"
"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

Killer Croc: There I was, holed up in this quarry and Batman came nosing around. He was coming closer... closer....

Poison Ivy: And...?
Killer Croc: ..AND THEN I THREW A ROCK AT HIM!
-Silence-
Killer Croc: It was a big rock...
Yes I've seen this conversation actually happen in the Abyss during a Hamidon Raid at the end of the final bloom.
Brute: This one time I had Hamidon cornered in a rock quarry.
Random Person: What happened?
Brute: *uses temp rock power and throws the rock at Hamidon* I THREW A ROCK AT HIM!
Random Person: Dude did you really just use the halloween temp rock on Hamidon?
Brute: It was a big rock...

By the way, since this wasn't addressed, the temp power is a costume power, there are dozens of them (not sure exactly how many) that you can get while ToTing. Basically you toggle them on and you look like a particular NPC - Paragon Protector, Freakshow Tank, Carnie Harlequin, Scrapyarder, etc. They have a two-week REAL TIME duration, so two weeks from now, that power will go away.
Wow, thanks for the information.
The only temp power I got last night, as a treat, was a toggle for looking like a Paragon Protector. Hmm. This is the first special event, besides double xp weekend, that I've been to. Though I've seen the Elohai [sp?] and the big Jack fighting in Croatoa, I think. Somewhere. And we couldn't get them apart to fight them. |
There are badges for collecting the costumes as well.
As for Eochai and Jack in Irons fighting in Croatoa, that is a zone event that is an ongoing aspect of Croatoa, and is not limited to Halloween. Basically they are giant monster spawns along the same lines as the Kraken of Perez Park or Babbage in Boomtown.
Edited to add: Oh, and as for the Titan Network ( www.cohtitan.com ) TonyV said there were DNS issues but that they are now resolved.

33, I believe (at least that's how many are documented in the wiki). More info on the ToT article there.

That "rare ghost" thing last year was just a bug, not a WAI effect. The devs only found out about it when we did (when the event went live) and announced that they were probably not going to be able to fix it in time for the rest of the event last year (and they didn't manage to).
Trick-or-Treating has been pimped a ton since last year, especially as a rare monster spawns goes. Last year even on a team you needed often several evenings to get 20 ghosts to coem ouf these doors, let alone GET them as the loved to run off back then. And instead had several thousand zombies and pumpkins. This time the formerly rare stuff and bosses spawned like crazy, and on a team of 4 everyone had all their defeat badges in half an hour or so. I also feel you dont have to wait so long anymore before you can click another door.

Do the costumes cost end? The wiki didn't say and I'm keeping Knives of Artemis on.
No, they're a 0 end cost toggle.

You should be able to get full details on any power by dragging the power from your power tray to the chat bar and dropping it, then hitting enter. This puts the text in brackets in the chat window and you can click it and pull up the power info window. The 2nd tab has the power details.

FYI, you can also look up powers that you don't have. Just type something like [Dry Heave] in chat. You do need the square brackets and, yes, that's a real power in the game.

Ummm... I told them in Test that the Spirit spawn was too low... twice.
