Trick or Treat

Oftentimes during a Halloween event (i.e. Halloween 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011) players can say

"Trick or Treat" and a target cursor would appear. Then targeting an NPC would yield one of several "treat" items or a "trick" of a nasty surprise.

Sometimes, players with GM Begging would have a rare chance at an extra special treat item.

  • You could only trick or treat the same NPC once every couple of minutes.

=Tricks=

  • Temporarily changes the hue of the character's body and equipped items. Hued clothing can be used to obtain 'two-tone' or 'Halloween' cloth that comes in 144 - 156 different colors (see: Metallic Dye Tub).
  • Bleeding profusely (harmless)

Naughty Twin can appear which can:

  • Teleport you to a random moongate on the same facet.
  • or Steal some of your candy.

Tips

  • I ran around Cove with great success. I started at the North end and worked my way South, hitting every NPC along the way. I then would go back to the first and be able to hit that one again, thus starting my circle over again.
  • Outside of the Royal City, trick or treating with the refugees is another great spot.
