Comments on the Halloween event

I just wanted to say that it has been a lot of fun already with the costume drops added into the mix. I have a couple that I have received that I think are really cool.

I didn't realize how much I looked at how people looked when the teamed up with me or I was helping out. I was teaming with a number of people yesterday and it was really weird to look over and see a lost member or a carnival member.

I set a stop watch next to the PC so that I know when the interval inbetween trick or treating is done. I also have hit an low inspiration as a timer as well (the first level of inspirations last one minute, so I will often hit one of those right as I click a door. Then when the inspiration fades I know it is time to be able to hit another one).

I even found Eochai twice last night in Steel Canyon.

All in all it has been an enjoyable time so far...

I've enjoyed the costume drops as well. The one thing I noticed is how fast time goes by doing this, since you have to wait a minute each time, and this adds up really quick. But, it's a nice change of pace.

RE: Comments on the Halloween event

Roughly how many times does TREAT have to appear before you actually get something? Plenty of time this morning I've knocked on the door, treat appears and slides down to power bars but nothing after that.

RE: Comments on the Halloween event

One of the big things, is to make sure your inspirations are not full. If they are full you may not get anything from a treat.

Also, check your global window, that will show what you received from a treat.

for example:

You received a Rightous Rage
You received a Troll Costume
You received a Rock

If you can't find what you received I would look there.

What Swiss said. And if you have an open Insp slot and don't get anything when TREAT appears, it means you got a costume drop that you already had.

One thing I noticed is that you can delete the costumes. Last night, I deleted all but 3 that I liked so I would know when I got another costume drop.

If you get a duplicate costume, the system tab does not say you got it.

Yes, The GAA has a few sets of costume salvage in it's racks from last year still.

Actually Big, I believe they ( costume salvage )are no longer there as of the last time I reorganized the racks. They were either used or sold.

Hummm,

On Guardian I've been dumping 50% insp. in the OM SG base storage. Ditto for the event salvage. Mostly been getting Hami's. If I get on Triumph, will do the same
