Welcome to Halloween 2009!
Halloween has come to Tyria, and that means the return of Mad King Thorn, new holiday quests, loads of creepy items, the Costume Brawl PvP event, and more!
The ghoul-apalooza begins on October 23rd and runs until 12:01 AM Pacific time on November 2nd. The main festivities take place in Lion's Arch and Kamadan, but the Halloween spirit can be found in other places around Tyria.
Calendar of Events
Spooky decorations, Halloween treats, creepy new quests, and the Mad King's malevolent games—all this and more await you during the Halloween Festival! Here's a schedule of events:
* Friday, October 23: The Halloween celebration begins at Noon Pacific time! The cities of Lion's Arch and Kamadan and the towns of Droknar's Forge and the Tomb of the Primeval Kings are decorated with dreadful décor. The Costume Brawl starts today! Halloween NPCs make their appearance in Lion's Arch and Kamadan.
* Monday, October 26: The new series of Halloween quests starts in Lion's Arch and Kamadan. Speak with the Mad King's Steward to begin your adventure! Remember, these quests are only available this year, so be sure to complete them while you can!
* Saturday, October 31: Mad King Thorn appears every three hours in Lion's Arch and Kamadan—all day! Participate in his events to receive this year's Halloween masks. Remember—the Mad King rewards participants in both cities with a different mask, so be sure to attend at least one of his events in both Lion's Arch and Kamadan to get both!
* Monday, November 2: The seasonal festivities conclude at 12:01 AM.

How did all do this Halloween? Hopefully folks got more treats than tricks.
Thanks to the super easy Something Wicked This Way Comes (which took less than 3 mins to complete, per character) and the Every Bit Helps repeatable quest, I was able to get far more ToT bags than I have ever gotten in prior years. Thank God that there was a post on Guild Wiki advising that you could get an unlimited number of Mobstoppers (by taking the quest, abandoning it, and then taking it again), or I would have likely been stuck just farming the chamber over and over again for 3 at a time. _________________ Master Account

Heh, I wound up with over 2000 tot bags, but got most of them from vaettir farming. I didn't know the wiki trick with abandoning the quest, but usually went with multiple accounts inside, and you could also pass mobstoppers on accounts, so I passed them to my rit, had him toast the skeletons, then hand them back out for reward. The vaettir farming also netted almost 200 golds, so a little move toward that title, too. Remarkably wretched mods on the golds, outside of highly salvagables, I bet I didn't find 10 that were worth anything (did fit out my 3 sin shields with the +armor for lightning, slashing and fire, as well as the +45 health enchanted). _________________ Two Dawgs

Think I finished with about half that, but that's not surprising since I really didn't farm much at all. I did about 30 mins of raptor farming early last week, and then got a few ToT bags here and there with normal playing. This added up to about 15 bags. Meanwhile, I did 9 Something Wicked runs (135 bags), a couple Don't Fear the Reapers runs (50 bags), one run of Stemming the Skeletal Tide (15 bags), and then about 32 runs of Every Bit helps (800 bags + 32 platinum from quest reward). [NOTE: Only about 5-6 actual UW runs were needed, to get the skeletons, followed by taking reward, portaling, taking quest + reward, portaling again, etc.] Best guess is that time spent was around 6-8 hours, which didn't seem to be too bad for the number of bags obtained (especially when you factor in the platinum from the quest rewards and a few UW ecto drops). _________________ Master Account

I didn't play much different than I normally do and only did the first UW quest once. I sat thru the Mad King once and AFK'd 5 times total between 2 accounts. Total: About 230 ToT bags and 120 items from the collectors from junk on hand. _________________ - Primary Account -

Wow, I missed out on so much. I farmed a little at the beginning, and did the first 2 quests. Then our son got H1N1, and I didn't do much more. I AFK'd through the Mad King, but that's about it. Our son is back to normal now though, so I'm happy regardless.
I do seem to accumulate alcohol over time and I don't drink. If someone would like to trade for sweets or something let me know. _________________ Working on Nightfall and EotN

I enjoyed the Hawaii sun away from the kids.
Sunny took pity on me and "gifted" me a stack of bags so i didn't feel left out- Thanks Sunny. _________________ Cal
