Halloween Event- Who is ready?

Don't know if I am the only one excited for the return of the Halloween Event! Has anyone heard what day it is going to return?

I'm impatient too! Surely around the 23th I would say! Hope we will have some surprises.

I'm ready to enjoy the event for 1 day then proceed to do whatever I was doing before.

The same as every festival.

I hope they give us some juicy new stuff

NEVER READY!

NEVER SURRENDER!

I've got almost 300g saved up so I don't have to grind the Labyrinth to get this year's inevitable stupidly expensive mini pet. So yes, I'm ready.

My guess is it will start on the 23rd and run for about 2 weeks, then we'll get another Living story update in November, to fit between Halloween and Wintersday. None of that has been confirmed, it's just what I think would make most sense. I'd be happy for Halloween to start sooner and run for longer though.

Plz, god decorations designer within Anet, more Halloween stuffs! stone walls, iron platforms, doors, clocktower... *eye blink :+1:

I returned to the game after a 2 year break for Halloween. Thought I might as well stick around and play the game regularly again. Halloween and Winters Day are always awesome.

I’ve got a long weekend booked off work at the end of this month, I AM SO READY.

Meh. I haven't looked forward to Halloween in-game since they replaced LA with this awful version. Compared to the original LA that was massively decked out for the Halloween event that was glorious, this new LA looks like the type of decorations you would see on a house where the person spent $5 to buy a plastic pumpkin, a colored light bulb for the porch light and a roll of orange crinkle paper that they threw around their bushes and was done with it.

I wish they would move Halloween to Divinity's Reach where they could:

• have actual door-to-door trick-or-treating in the housing areas (Ossan Quarter, Western Commons, Eastern Commons, Rurikton) and have each quadrant/neighborhood give different treats (wonder which will be giving out the full size candy bars!) and a unique trick/type of trick that you might receive depending on which area you are in
• a giant spider web stretching over and above the pit in the rebuilt Crown Pavilion area with a sort of minigame/jumping puzzle of walking along the web spines while dodging spiders to reach a prize
• flood the low walking areas in The Upper City and have spooky gondola rides

There are so many possibilities for moving Halloween to DR that would give it a proper Halloween feeling whereas Halloween feels pretty out of place and uninspired in the current LA setup.

I've been excited by this since August. I cannot wait for the Labyrinth and Clock Tower to return!

I'm happy to see this event return. It was the first event I saw when I started this game two years ago. It also means some of my friends might return to play the game for a while too.

They should use other cities as well for that festival. Why not for the first time, festivities in each racial city? Come on Evon! You can do that! Edit: Or thorn or anybody in charge of it.

really interesting ideas there, maybe even an event that triggers every 2 hours where you need to find ghosts and gather them for threats that you can use to spend on stuff from special vendors, maybe even a mount skin for 2K of that stuff.

But it's not Evon who runs it. Mad King Thorn does and Lion's Arch is (was) his city.

IMO they should have festivals in each city, but different ones, moving Halloween wouldn't make sense.

Yeah you're surely right, one festival per city could be nice indeed.

I'm happy it's closer, then finished then episode 5 will be closer. Then I'll buy my own candies thank you.So I don't care about hallow ween so sue me. :o

My only concern is if we'll be able to unlock one of the other two skins this year, or if the only way is buying them, and they'll do something else. Obviously anyone who bought them will freak if it's possible to get them for free, but also, we had to wait a year and we'll still only have two of the three.

I WILL farm for Oxidecimus this year!

....is what I tell myself every year. >.>

Always ready for the family feud. Those Thorns, so crazy!

Since Joko is gone, I say there needs to be Thorns vs Joko.

I'm ready and looking forward to it to get the Bloodstained Lunatic Noble Mask for my medium Huntsman BUT thats only because I can't get it for my Necro, which it would be perfect for her. Its a shame the mask isn't available for all classes (or at least Necro ;)

I'm ready for the BL chest rotation... I mean, yeah, Halloween! Such fun!

AH yush!!! The labyrinth!! And my beloved Lunatic inquisition!! The best Minigame ever!!!

I can't wait! This is going to be my first Halloween with this game, and a friend and I promised each other we'll do the events together. Everything sounds like so much fun!

I just hope there aren't spoilers about Joko...with whatever it was that happened in the last Living World episode. Haven't gotten there yet, and my friend and I are trying so hard to avoid spoilers...
