Title: Halloween on Test
Post by: Midnight on September 18, 2007, 03:15:09 PM
Apparently we get temp powers that spoof certain villain models (see: the Faultline Arachnos costume). I'm hopping on to check it out now.

It's fun and frustrating at the same time!

I tried it out earlier. Picked up 3 costumes with my tank then switched to my blaster, Em. Took a while but I eventually picked up 3 more costumes.

The entire time I didn't get any Halloween salvage.

sounds fun!

I think I missed last year Halloween, but I loved it in 2005

I haven't made any of the Halloween events yet, but maybe this time around.

Those costumes do sound fun.  I wonder if they will disappear at the end of the event, or if there's a time/use limit like on some of the other powers?  I still have characters with Holiday temp powers slotted. :D

From my reading of the CoH boards, any temp costume powers picked up through the Halloween event will last for fourteen days of real time (not in-game time) before vanishing.

Yeah, unless they change it your pretty costumes will go away in 14 days of real time.

I think that bites. They should make it game play time IMO.
