Clave Dark 5 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Well... maybe not, but it's still good to know either way.

Mystic Fortune Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) ...because Carrot Crusader needed a sometimes rival partner. Not sure which will break first. My sanity or my bank.

How are you guys getting the tiny costumes? The new currency called Prismatic Aether which was added in page 4. It can be redeemed for permanent costume powers. Basically any power you can earn briefly from the Halloween Trick or Treating event, you can purchase permanently by exchanging Prismatic Aether salvage. For a higher premium price, you can also purchase costume modes that alter your characters size and appearance. The Mini Mode costume power is one of the most popular ones, and costs 250 Aether... Which on the surface is a LOT.... there are a few ways to get the Aether outside of running the new Difficult content. Earn the new Halloween Defeat badges, which grant 2 Aether per badge... (Someone with perseverance and a lot of patience can grind 250 Prismatic Aether by getting theses new badges on 25 alts... it's grinding, and it will make you hate the ToT event after you're finished... but it's doable.) Buy the Prismatic Aether outright off the Auction House for 750 million to 1 billion inf. (This is the P2W option, but it is extremely expensive to maintain.) There may be other options, but these are the two that I have experimented with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives the people who want something to unlock something to do without making it a chore for people who don't care for unlockable content because it's all purely cosmetic and the usefulness is iffy at best, mostly for people who have specific themes in mind. As for it being limited to one character per purchase... some things are apparently as expensive as they are, like the mini characters, specifically to keep them from being too easily attainable because there will be people who just won't appreciate it. And I can tell you, I'm one of those unappreciative people. I think the minis look stupid and I will not hesitate to immediately drop from a team with one, whether I show up and one is already there, one is recruited, or the player has the mini in reserve and turns it on in the middle of a mission. Sorry, no time for your short shenanigans... I've got big people problems to fight, alongside big people. Take your little monstrosities elsewhere. 😝 3 4 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do too, just don't think I am going to put in the effort to gather 250 Aether salvage per toon that I would want to be able to do a mini on. I checked, and I have earned a few of the salvage (maybe 10 or so), but 250 is too steep for me as a per toon unlock. If it were an per account unlock, I would maybe be persuaded to do more content that rewards the salvage, but I'm just not that interested in getting them. sorry all, didn't mean to derail the thread. I'll get back to posting new and exciting costume designs 😁 Edited October 29, 2022 by Mr. Apocalypse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Apocalypse Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Here is my latest inspiration AKA Karen - Sonic/poison corruptor Obviously a villain but thinks she is a hero. Her neighbors hate her, and retail managers run when she comes near. She is all around toxic. No matter what you do, or how you act, she will find something wrong and try to fix it. She is forever the subject of unjust treatment. 3 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
