Best Leagues get everyone incanned to each banner after they are vulnerable in order to help with that. Outside of leagues, if you have a strong team of eight, you can have pairs at each banner which will get you all the badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a really cool part of the event, as it set the Halloween atmosphere. I could be wrong, but I believe that those show up with Eternal Night.

If I'm remembering correctly, I believe they showed up anytime at night, but now only a couple of buildings in Atlas still have the window decos. I just parked there yesterday for a few minutes to soak them in. They used to be all over the place in many of the maps. Just wondering why that changed, and if we can get them back. It's such a simple thing to have that really adds to the Halloween event atmosphere, and awesome during ToT. Screenshot I took yesterday in Atlas. So cool. 🙂 Edited October 5, 2023 by slamya69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we get some input on why the Halloween decos have been removed from the residential building windows (green lit windows with pumpkins, cats, bats etc)? That made it feel like Halloween in pretty much any zone you went to. Annnnnd....can we get them back please?! 🙂 Those map changes happen during Eternal Night, which starts during the second half of the month.

Display Name Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Something I noticed about the Kallisti Wharf ToT league: If I go to the hosp, I stop receiving exp/inf rewards. Once I get back "in range" of my team/league, then the exp/inf rewards resume. @Super Whatsit Superbase passcode (Excelsior) is "passcode-6475" It's all a Nemesis plot. But not everything is a Nemesis plot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, that's what people were saying in-game. Ran a banner event yesterday that had anchors at each banner, using Incan to port the entire league over. I got credit for each one no problems. Ran one today under the same conditions, but I missed out on one badge, and my husband, on another team within the same league, got zero. Something with the event does feel a bit off.

Clave Dark 5 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Banners have always been sort of tetchy like this, I think I've only gotten all the badges on my first try like once, maybe twice at best. ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Clave's Sure-Fire Secrets to Enjoying City Of Heroes Ignore those farming chores, skip your market homework, play any power sets that you want, and ignore anyone who says otherwise.

Spectre7878 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Was on a great league the other night in Wharf and they ran it it beautifully. I got all the badges. Probably just luck.

When I kicked off Tequila this morning, and there were no updates to the files, I figured that was a bad sign. As I had initially thought, the Halloween window decos in the residential buildings are not there, even with eternal night starting. Only three buildings in Atlas have them (same three that already had them before eternal night). Without the decos, the different maps look no different than they always do, except that it's always night. Doesn't give off the Halloween vibe. What would it take to add those back in? Not sure why they all disappeared in the first place. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Community Rep Dacy Posted October 20, 2023 Retired Community Rep Share Posted October 20, 2023 Finishing up the Halloween Event, it's the annual giveaway! Make your way to one (or more!) of these bases for some high value treats! Some of you may note that there are no bases hosting the giveaway on Reunion or Indomitable. That's sad, but we had no entries into the Halloween base contest that chose the winning hosts. People from those shards can still come over, either by transferring a character or by making a level one on a participating shard. The prizes are worth it, and the bases are lots of fun! I've personally had people tell me they came into the game just to experience the Witch's House. Don't let a little thing like a free server transfer keep you from great treats and a great experience! -CR Dacy 1 -Dacy Retired CR Active Base Advocate My base building tutorials are always available for you!
