Costume Pack! and Positiny

I have never been able to go to any of the conventions where all the awesome freebie costume codes fly around. I have been a loyal player since the game was in open beta. How about throwing those of us who can't attend these conventions a bone by putting together purchasable costume code packs? Ten bucks for ten costumes? I think that sounds fair. Also on a semi related (and funnier) note, I think they should have Positiny™. He would be a unique EB debuffing pet purchasable (as in all the packs), for say twenty five dollars, that would have a cool down of... one hour? That way we would not have to farm shivans all the time. And as the name implies, he'd be a tiny copy of Positron. Hopefully the size of the vet reward pets.

Eh. I suppose. Then again, I'd rather have the "costume" badges on Halloween let you "keep" a costume instead of having it vanish. (There are a few. Have a "kept costume" for each.) Maybe turn in some salvage for something to keep, too. (So that "Hey, I have 31 BAB gloves and only one LR mask!" means you'll have a use for a bunch of those gloves.)

Meh. And who "needs to farm Shivans?"

The costume pack would be nice... don't really care about the mini pet idea. But I could get behind the idea of a fan service costume pack for those con only and/or contest only costumes. Just release a few month after the con/contest so that they still have a specialness for the guys that got them early.

... I thought that was the idea between Psyche and/or Swan's costumes anyway... >.>

Swan wears a costume?

I think it would be a great idea if we could purchase some of those costumes as well. I too am a long time player, yet cannot afford to jet across the country for cool in game stuff at the cons.
I hope its something the devs seriously consider.

I'm still a fan of the turn in additional sets of Halloween salvage to earn permanent costumes idea. Especially since the balancing factor is built-in: Costume codes are account-wide, aren't level locked in any way, and are "free" whereas these unlocked costumes are per-character, require you to get the salvage in the first place, and take time to earn.

I like the idea of getting something that people who cant get time off or who arent rich enough to travel all the way to USA be able to get something for once.

i dont like tht pet idea especially the price of it.

I'd much rather have them add a feature that allowed you to save either one entire Halloween costume or the equivalent individual pieces from multiple costumes (Carnival Harlequin boots+Hellion vest+Coralax gloves etc.) that would be permanently usable in the costume creator. Say you get the option only if you collect all of the available Halloween costumes during the event.

Code intensive? Yes, but oh so cool!


I'd also love to see Paragon Studios come to Dallas again. I believe that they were here once for a Meet and Greet.

Here's an idea. Costume Merits. Add a vendor that let's you convert other merits (merits,vangaurd, ae tickets) and holloween salvage into Costume Merits that can be used to buy all those unlockabes and/or give access to the temp (with perm option) costumes.
