Halloween Event 2004

Overview

During this event, Heroes could 'Trick or Treat' by clicking on doors in the various zones. Either a treat was awarded usually in the form of a random inspiration or a trick which would spawn various enemies in your immediate area. The giant monster, Eochai could also be found throughout Paragon City.

Temporary Powers

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