    So I've unlocked these bone armour costume pieces years ago by buying the set. I assume I'll get the peck automatically by logging into the game?

    Most likely, nope. Since they unlock new way. Like rest of the "blue mask" costume pieces.

    Just like how I had a scarecrow head unlocked and I didn’t have the perk...

    And even though the changes affect your current unlocked costumes.....just to have fun unlocking things for nothing.

    The bone armor set is like the Cardboard one, showing you not own it despite having them from the Z-Store, because those items count seperate and were made into drops but not connect to the store items for some apparent reason, the web clothing as example also i have or the plague mask in the event store yet i still can unlock them according ot the symbol and description.

    This seriously needs to be fixed or acknowledged of, same with perks not counting if you unlocked things last year and years before as well. Becasue then like with emotes the game asks me to make 10 chars and buy 10 emotes again to unlock it despite having the emote on some already before. It just confuses over time again wtih how much things exist by now.

    Loosing track simply, while we at it, a imple option for vendors and the Auciton Hosue to hide already owned customes? Yes? Maybe also a "legacy" vendor that shows all existing costumes? Maybe Toy Maker or so since he seems to have no use anymore. Speaking of him, undead heroes action figures not seems to be able to be made, can't say myself since i have all but others in Zone i seen can't.

    Hmm, Tako Throne is now just a drop from Tako.

    Hmm, extra rewards for running the Serial series this week. I wonder, given its whacky nature, if the whole series can be done in a week?

    Question, I see that you added the GhostHunter costume as a 5X Tako reward, (which is great for those who could not afford the Costume Key pack) And the backpack was a 5x reward last week, and the boots are in the event store costumes.

    But what about the 'Ghost Hunter STYLE' (Which I presume is a hair piece?) I do not see it as a reward, or in the Event store anywhere under costumes. But we need this last piece to be able to grab that nifty Ghost Hunter Gun Power-alter device from the Rec vendor. Where do find & acquire the 'GhostHunter Style'?

    Thank you,

    .Weren't they going to add the third and final series to the serial adventure during the Anni Event? I saw the news blurb for it, but I don't recall seeing any new content.

    I don't see the costume as a reward for any of the Tako missions. Only one I see is the 5 x Tako for the style piece.

    Excuse my really deep sigh but Takofanes Throne needs to be in the event store I was saving currency for it. I'm never going to be able to get my hands on it as a drop without overpaying. 😫😫😫 How could You?

    Overall good event store items though. 👍👌

    It's common thing for floating elements auras, despite getting a quick fix some years ago it keeps happening​​

    AH-HA, ok ID10T error.
    All I saw was the reward being a GhostHunter COSTUME , not the STYLE COSTUME PIECE.

    Thank you, ;P

    So I hear you like buying Zstore items....Well we are taking to make them a perk and you can’t have it!
  • guyhumualguyhumual Posts: 2,386 Arc User
    So, quick question, for the Takofanes fight, are the undead heroes supposed to continue to lose health even after you take down the deathloard that attacked them? Or is that a new addition to the fight? I don't remember that happening last year.

    It happened last year. Unless you're playing a healer it's not very noticeable.

    Bug(?); Vehicles seem to be slamming you to the ground on startup.

    if that were the case all the undead heroes would be slowly dying.

    The ones that haven't been attacked by a deathlord don't seem to take any damage though. Vanguard is at full health when the deathlord attacks him for example, but everyone slowly loses health after being attacked.

    Yes, they only start dying after a doomlord has been summoned on them, though it still reduces their damage taken by a lot if you kill the doomlord.

    This is why having healers around to heal the undead heroes as they take damage is a good thing.
