Update - October 21, 2010

Halloween 2010

This time of year, when fear holds sway
And Mad King Thorn comes out to play,
His trusty servants hope and pray
That Halloween is here to stay.

You’ll get a strange thing from the king
And stranger still from candy,
Beware the pain that bad jokes bring,
And keep your weapons handy.

An ancient evil stains the land,
It reaches from the interior,
The grasp of doom's cold, clammy hand:
Could Tyria get any eerier?

[edit] Halloween Events

* Preparations have been made for Halloween 2010.
* A number of new quests will become available throughout the course of the events.
* Some NPCs in GvG are showing their Halloween spirit by wearing costumes.
* Costume Brawl:

* Added new hero and villain costumes.
* Costumes and teams will be randomly assigned for each match.
* Game rewards have been changed to 15 Gamer points per win.
* Players no longer receive Gamer point bonuses for consecutive wins.

New quests, happy days : )

Well, that's one way of disincentivizing syncing.

Finally, GvG got the update it's been waiting for a long time!

New hero or just new hero costumes?????

If the same changes are made to glad points and RA team formation as have been made to costume brawl and gamer points, I will actually play RA for the first time since unlocking TA. Each win/loss being entirely independent of any preceding wins/losses is a great idea and is a good way to make casual PvP appealing to casual PvPers like me.

NPCs are changed all over LA

It's great that cheating/synching has been stopped. Thanks for a fine update.

Any costumes being put up at the store? Please!

The costume guy in GToB says about new costumes! Raiment of the Lich and Lunatic Court Finery :> No new items in the store, though.

Poeople have changed:
Male Monk - Saul D'ellesio

I also see Palowa Joko
Shiro Tagachi

The npc changes are quite funky, nice trivial touch considering nothing else yet.

Hoping we'll see this "lite" version of the pvp reward change soon?

That would be amazing. I support this.

On the other hand... how long till people figure out RR again?

Costume brawl costumes appear to be random.

No RA would still suck unless they banned healers with that system. Ban healers and make it randomized it would be a riot.

Damn...I was going to post that

Harder for full teams to comply and especially those who want some fun, Also btw anyone else not gettin 15points a match - i just won 3 matches and i'm dissapointed

Yes please. RA has needed some kind of change for a long time.

New Costumes!

from gw.dat

Those are the most epic costumes i have ever seen. Those Pumpkin Crowns....

Hmm I'm going to check on them tomorrow. Never bought any of the customes but these kinda look worth while.
