| − | The event is currently scheduled to run from October 22nd through November 4th[http://www.cityofheroes.com/community/event_halloween2007.html].
| + | == Overview == |
| − | ==Overview== | + | |
| | | | |
| − | During this event, players will be able to 'Trick or Treat' by clicking on mission doors in the various zones. Players can only click once per 60 seconds, and after a particular door had been clicked on, neither the player nor anybody else can use it for 30 seconds. If a door is successfully knocked, then either a treat is awarded usually in the form of a random inspiration or costume salvage, or else a trick, which will spawn various enemies in the immediate area.
| + | The [[Halloween Event]] for 2007 expanded on previous Halloweens. In addition to Trick or Treating for Event Salvage and enemy defeat badges, "Classic Costume" temporary powers were added to the treats. As with the [[Halloween Event 2006|2006 event]], the [[Croatoa]] [[Giant Monster]]s [[Eochai]] and [[Jack in Irons]] spawned throughout the game (including the City of Villains zones) and awarded their own special Halloween badges. |
| | | | |
| − | Players have to Trick or Treat in a zone that matches their current effective level (See list below), or the doors would not give tricks or treats. [[Sidekick]]/Lackey and Exemplar/Malefactor can be used to allow Trick or Treating to work, and the [[Sidekick#PvP Zones|auto-exemplar]] of PvP zones mean that they will work for anyone high enough to enter them (except for Recluse's Victory, which has no functioning mission doors.)
| + | The event ran in all zones in the game except [[Faultline]], [[Rikti War Zone]], [[Recluse's Victory]], [[The Hive]], [[The Abyss]], [[Cascade Archipelago]], [[The Chantry]], and [[The Storm Palace]]. |
| | | | |
| | + | == Eternal Night == |
| | During the event, the entire game is locked in nighttime mode. This is not just a visual effect. All aspects of the game that depend on a day/night cycle are locked to the night side during the event. Enemies that only spawn at night spawn continuously during the event. [[Banisher Badge|Banisher]], [[The Slayer Badge|The Slayer]], and [[Haunted Badge|Haunted]] badges (Hero side) and [[Pirate Badge|Pirate]] and [[Spectral Badge|Spectral]] badges (Villain side) are examples of badges for which hunting will be much easier during the event. | | During the event, the entire game is locked in nighttime mode.

| − | In 2006, the event ran in all zones in the game except [[Recluse's Victory]], [[The Hive]], [[Cascade Archipelago]], [[The Chantry]], and [[The Storm Palace]]. The few zones where the event is not running are all zones for at least level 40 characters, so for any characters below level 40, literally every single accessible zone will be running the event. For 2007 it appears that the new [[Faultline]], [[The Abyss]], and [[Rikti War Zone]] are also zones in which the event is not functional.
| + | Note that some zones, such as [[The Hive]], are unaffected by Eternal Night. |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==Temporary Powers==
| + | |
| − | One of the treats is 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. [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=general&Number=1646253]

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Knocking on doors can give a "Classic Costume" [[Temporary Powers|Temporary Power]]. These powers last for 13 days real time, are incompatible with any stealth powers, and cannot be used in PvP zones. For costume models that have a single gender (such as Carnie Harlequin or Strongman), activating the costume will force the apparent sex of the character to match. For costumes that have both genders (such as Crey Agent), the character will use the appropriate model. Finally, some of the costumes will have special animation built into it (such as Goldbricker and Sky Raider having animated flightpacks, PPD Hardsuit with rocket boots when in flight, Pirate having ghost-style flight, etc).

| − | ==Badges==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Three new badges are available for this event, in addition to the badges from the [[Halloween Event 2004]] and [[Halloween Event 2006|2006]]. They are awarded for receiving faction costume [[Temporary Powers]] while trick or treating.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | {{BadgeBox|Clothes Horse}}
| + | |
| − | {{BadgeBox|Fashionable}}
| + | |
| − | {{BadgeBox|Ostentatious}}
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Note: receiving a duplicate costume will give no indication of the duplicate, but it will count towards the badges. Because of this, it will appear that less costume drops have occurred than are required for the badge.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | All of the previous Halloween event badges are once again available as well.

| − | ==Notes==
| + | |
| − | *Testing for this event began on Tuesday September 18th and ran from 3pm to 7pm Eastern.
| + | |
| − | *Second testing set was on Monday September 24th and ran from 3pm to an unknown time.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | *Reports of rare [[Inspiration]]s being dropped as treats, notably [[Mez]]-resist ones that are no longer available.
| + | |
| − | **Confirmed, [[Inspiration#Other Inspirations|Iron Wills]] are dropping as treats. In fact, all treat drops now seem to be tier 3s.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | *Note: Costumes are dropped independent of event salvage, meaning you can get both at once.
| + | |
| − | *While similar to Freakshow and Arachnos costumes, these DO NOT grant stealth or invisibility. Mobs will attack players who are wearing these costumes, even if it's a costume of their group.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | *New [[Badges]] added to this year's event do not have bars yet, but appear between the [[Sentry Badge|Sentry]] and [[Demolitionist Badge|Demolitionist]] badges.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | *When event Salvage is awarded as a treat, two Inspirations will also be awarded. This seems to happen for costume powers as well.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == Free Costume Slot ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The event gives the ability to unlock a free costume slot on any character. Which slot it opens depends on how many costume slots you have already unlocked. Costume slots are awarded incrementally...a level 1 will be awarded their second slot, while a level 50 with all four previous costume slots unlocked will unlock a fifth. This reward does not include a free costume change token; unless you have free costume change tokens left over from previous awards, you will have to pay normal [[influence]] or [[infamy]] costs to change the costume in this new slot. | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | To unlock this slot a player needs to gather one each of the four types of [[Event_Salvage#Halloween_Event_Salvage|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 free slot. There was a 35% chance of any Treat being a piece of event salvage, with even chances for which of the four types of event salvage is received.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | These are rubber Back Alley Brawler gloves, perfect for a Halloween costume. Their manufacture makes it difficult to perform simple tasks like opening doors. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.

| | | | |
| − | === Statesman Halloween Mask ===
| + | During this event, players were be able to 'Trick or Treat' by knocking (that is, 'clicking') on mission doors in the various zones. If a door was successfully knocked, then either a treat was awarded in the form of inspirations, costume salvage, or classic costumes, or else a trick was pulled, which spawned Halloween-specific enemies from the clicked door. |

| − | '''Event Salvage'''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This is a Halloween mask of the famous hero Statesman. It's made of cheap plastic, and the flimsy string probably won't last through the night. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.

| + | |
| − | '''Event Salvage''' | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This is a Halloween mask of the infamous Lord Recluse. It's made of smelly rubber, and wearing it makes you all sweaty and hard to find your breath. Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The most popular Halloween costume among the kids in Paragon City is that of Hamidon. This simple costume is made from coloured plastic wrap. Many kids like to put action figures of their favourite heroes inside the wrap, pretending they are 'raiding' for 'Hami-O's' Heroes can take this to Annah in Croatoa, while villains can take this to Granny Beldam in Nerva, for a reward.

| − | == Zones ==
| + | |
| − | Trick or Treating only worked if the player was in a zone with a level appropriate for their current combat level. The following are the appropriate levels for various zones:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Heroes ===
| + | |
| − | :01 - 11 [[Atlas Park]]

| + | |
| − | :40 - 50 [[Grandville]]
| + | |
| − |
| + | |
| − | === PvP (Both) ===
| + | |
| − | Since all [[PvP]] zones automatically [[Exemplar]] anyone entering to a specific level, anyone entering the zone is brought to a combat level appropriate to the zone, so all zones are appropriate for Trick or Treating for anyone of a high enough level to enter the zone.
| + | |
| − | :15 - 50 [[Bloody Bay]]
| + | |
| − | :20 - 50 [[Siren's Call]]
| + | |
| − | :30 - 50 [[Warburg]]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | == Enemies ==

| − | Note: none of these groups counted toward the non-Halloween badges available in the game normally. For example, these Fir Bolg do not count towards the Pumpkin Master/Mistress badge.
| + | |
| − | === Coven ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The [[Coven]] is made up of witches also seen as the [[The Cabal|Cabal]] enemy group found in [[Croatoa]]. Note that this group is the most visually different from their normal in-game spawns of any of the Halloween mobs. The Cabal is primarily colored in shades of grey and black, while the Halloween Coven is much more colorful.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Fir Bolg ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[Fir Bolg]] can also be found in [[Croatoa]] at the present. '''Note''' that there is '''no''' badge for defeating them.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Spirits ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Spectral Demons from the [[Circle of Thorns]] were used to create the [[Spirits]] faction.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Vampires ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[Council]] vampyri were the models used to make up the [[Vampire|Vampires]] enemy group for the event.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Werewolves ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[Council]] nightwolves and warwolves were the models used to make up the [[Werewolves]] faction for the event.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Zombies ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The [[zombies]] are [[Banished Pantheon]] soldiers.

| − | === Unseelie Court === | + | == Giant Monsters == |
| | + | :Main article: [[Halloween Event/Giant Monsters|Giant Monsters]] |
| | | | |
| − | The [[Unseelie Court]] was a new enemy group for the 2006 event. They accompanied the random zone spawns of [[Eochai]] and [[Jack in Irons]]. | + | During the event, the entire game was locked in nighttime mode. The Giant Monsters from [[Croatoa]], [[Eochai]] and [[Jack in Irons]] spawned in most zones (including the City of Villains zones), awarding Halloween-specific badges for their defeat.

During the event, the entire game is locked in nighttime mode. This is not just a visual effect. All aspects of the game that depend on a day/night cycle are locked to the night side during the event. Enemies that only spawn at night spawn continuously during the event. Banisher, The Slayer, and Haunted badges (Hero side) and Pirate and Spectral badges (Villain side) are examples of badges for which hunting will be much easier during the event.
During this event, players were be able to 'Trick or Treat' by knocking (that is, 'clicking') on mission doors in the various zones. If a door was successfully knocked, then either a treat was awarded in the form of inspirations, costume salvage, or classic costumes, or else a trick was pulled, which spawned Halloween-specific enemies from the clicked door.
