Overview

During this event, players can 'Trick or Treat' by clicking on mission doors in the various zones. Either a treat is awarded usually in the form of a random inspiration or costume salvage or a trick which will spawn various enemies in your immediate area.

Players must Trick or Treat in a zone that matches their current effective level, or the doors will not give tricks or treats. Sidekick/Lackey and Exemplar/Malefactor can be used to allow Trick or Treating to work, and the auto-SK/LK/EX/MF of PvP zones means that they will work for anyone high enough to enter them (except for Recluse's Victory, which has no functioning mission doors.)

Note that currently the event is only active on the Test server. It is expected to activate on Live sometime in October 2006, but the exact event start date is currently unknown.

Temporary Powers

One of the treats was the Rock temporary power. It is a one use, ranged attack that does minor smashing damage. Matt Miller was the developer behind this homage to It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. [1]

Power

Ranged Smashing Damage

You got a rock.

Fifth Costume Slot

The event will introduce the ability to unlock a fifth costume slot on any character. To unlock this slot you need to gather one each of the four types of Event Salvage that can be found through "Trick or Treating". You need one each of Statesman Mask, Lord Recluse Helmet, Back Alley Brawler Gloves, and Hamidon costume. All four then need to be brought to the appropriate Halloween contact for the character's game. Granny Beldam for villains and Annah for heroes. The contact will then unlock the fifth slot. Note that the devs have said [2] that the contacts will remain in the game, so that, while new costume salvage may not be earnable after the event, existing costume salvage may still be turned in after the event is over.

Ghosts

This enemy group is also found as Spectral Demons from the Circle of Thorns.

Vampires

Council vampyrs made up this enemy group for the event.

Werewolves

Council nightwolves and warwolves made up this faction for the event.

Unseelie Court

Zombies

The zombies are Banished Pantheon soldiers.

Useelie Court

Reported new enemy group for the 2006 event. They accompany the random zone spawns of Eochai and Jack in Irons.
