I wonder if the Rocket Board can reskinned (maybe use the Broom from the Staff Fighting weapon customization) & pair it with Emote animations such as Crouch, Sit, or the pose from prestige power slide (if they are compatible) (& without the glow).

 

It's probably way harder to do than it sounds.

Ghost invasions of Croatoa and Dark Astoria would be interesting - maybe implement a few new badges to go with them.

At the risk of being labeled both pedantic and archaic, it should be "brethren and sistren" or "brothers and sisters". The former terms were used in Middle English, from the 12th to 15th centuries; 'brothers' began to replace 'brethren' from about 1600 (except for referring to fellow members of a religious community, society, or profession), while 'sistren' had completely fallen out of use by the mid 16th century.

Trust @srmalloy, I was corrected on my use of 'here here,' as 'hear, hear' a few months ago and I can now confidently walk around parties agreeing with people without a care  😁

It's one of the French benefits of having such learned people (personren?) like @srmalloy participate on the boards.

[ironjoe]

My character isn't themed for Halloween but I enjoy all the events and support expanding on them. I also like the idea of looking at reskinning things to bring broom travel for those for those that use it.

[BALAKÉ]

Thanks for all of the feedback guys, there's just so much potential for this game, just not sure if costumes is something the higher ups are working on so I thought I'd just blurt out this request and see what happens..

I stand corrected lol

[DoctorDitko]

I had missed the issue 25 change to invasions of both Zombies and Rikti such that they no longer spawn if everyone in the zone is below level 25.

 

Could we instead make it based on zone level?

It's not in the i25 patch notes.

"French benefits"?  Is that with tongue?

I think they're referring to the recurring requests to amend the respec process so that, instead of having to completely redo your build, you can select individual powers and slots to be re-allocated.

Well during the respec process, changes are made to a build that sometimes is already slotted with enhancements, so sometimes after changes enhancements are no longer needed to be slotted. So, I'm requesting there be a simple button for us to return all enhancements back to your inventory (up to its max) so that we're not having to select each one individually one-by-one having to slot them back into our inventory. It, takes, FOREVER. Lastly, as far as transferring goes, sometimes we like to transfer goods from one toon to another and instead of having to email one-by-one, being able to transfer in bulk would also be a very helpful change for many.

I wish this event/season had it's own enhancement sets like the winter and summer event do. Imagine a proc allowing you to summon bats, ravens, werewolves, zombies, etc. Or another proc giving you a chance to shape change into one of them with a few of their powers? Next year maybe?

Maybe if they ever make Fear and/or Confuse Purple Sets, they could be Halloween Themed?

There's so much in game ideas already here. The potential is limitless! Honestly, and I know this probably isn't a popular opinion, but the seasonal events needs an overhaul. Instead of more, new content, focus could be put into these events. A TF/SF/trial for each event (Halloween and Christmas) would be a welcome change. The lore is there. We have, in game, a lot of what is needed for the stories to be told. I can't remember if the BBNY mission is a TF or a trial, but if it is, that could also be overhauled. Wishful thinking I know. But a wish nonetheless!

I had pitched an idea for a Haunted Proc that randomly summons a spirit/ghost to fight for you for a short while.

Still love that idea & love your expansion on it. 

 

Different Themed Procs each with their own type of summons, @Echo Night that is really great. I hope they get made.

OK, I'll bite, overhauled how?  Seems basically just fine to me, although I'll admit it's probably my favorite thing in the game, so I may be biased.

An idle thought I had the last time I was cruising through Atlas Park -- it obviously can't be done for this year, but there are two big cauldrons full of candy on the east and west sides of the central plaza. It would give them a bit of a 'treat' flavor if you could click on a cauldron and (on, say, a five or ten minute timer) get a random small inspiration.
