Halloween Event 2019

    This year's Halloween Event is now live! The event will last until the start of the 11th November.

    Due to a mixture of being fairly busy as of late, and the recent-ish release of PR 2.0, I wasn't able to develop very many new things for this event. Whilst a few new buffs, and some enhancements have been added, the event uses the same candy system from last year's event, however a few changes have been made.
    • You will always get at least one candy per COOP map, even if you are alone.
    • Tank candy drops have increased, including inside scenarios
    • Every daily quest that doesn't already give a candy bag now gives a Medium bag of candy
    • A new COOP daily quest has been added, accessible at only Level 120, which gives a Large bag of candy upon completion
    • A new world item exclusive to this event, the Candy Pot, now spawns on COOP maps. If you find it, you and all other survivors on the server can take 1 small bag of candy from it.
    A bonus for the more hardcore players, if you manage to buy every buff and enhancement for one type, you then unlock the ability to purchase an Honor Coupon, which gives 1 Honor Point, for 10 of that candy. I don't expect very many to achieve this, this was more added so people have something to spend their candy on.

    In regards to scenarios, as aforementioned the lack of time made it impossible for me to make a new scenario for this event. Instead, both last year's and the 2017 Halloween scenario, 'Bounty Hunter' and 'Spooky Night' will be available to host on alternative days, e.g. On one day you can host 'Bounty Hunter', the next 'Spooky Night'. They both give a Large bag of candy upon turning in their respective quests.

    One thing to note for these scenarios is that they were made prior to the release of the Scenario difficulty modifier system. As a result, I do not know how balanced they are for the current version of PR. Should they be too easy or too hard I will change them, but I require people to at least try. Even failing scenarios gives candy from the Tanks defeated in them. I will be watching and updating the scenarios daily, so even if you fail one day, give it another attempt later.

    To join these scenarios, you require the following maps:

    Damnation to access the scenario server:

    Bahia City for Spooky Night:

    Cornered for Bounty Hunter:

    And finally, an optional addon featuring some custom music used in some scenarios:

    If you make a buff or enhancement purchase in error, please leave a message with your steam ID and the item you want refunded.

    Hope you enjoy the event!

    As the Halloween Event is close to ending, I gotta say I very well enjoyed everything that it had to offer for this year ^^

    Thanks for letting us do both the last year and the 2017's Halloween Event Scenarios for this year's event, it was worth it for a good challenge. You did a good job making the event Mute ^^.

    I wanted to ask a question though:

    In terms of the |E| Halloween Spirit Buff. I saw that buff at the event last year, but this year I did not see it within any of the event candy markets at all... why would this be the case for this year?

    And that concludes the Halloween 2019 event.

    I hope you enjoyed it, and obtained the buff and enhancements you desired. If you are still undecided do not worry, you have until the 21st of November to redeem your candy.

    As a final added bonus for those who are just a few candy off of what they want, if you have at least 75% of the candy cost required for a buff or enhancement, you can redeem it by consuming all other candy you have, as long as it is enough to cover the missing candy cost. Do note that all candy is spent, leaving you with nothing left, so make sure you spend on anything else you can redeem first.
