    The Halloween event?

    So...I just realized the Halloween event started on the 25th....what does this event entail other then getting random candy each day through a survey? Are there gimmick items to snag?

    To further clarify, it is confirmed that this year's Harvest Revel is not a live event. What you can expect though is daily lore introducing everyone to what exactly the Harvest Revel is as well as free in-game items, which are always a bonus in my book.

    All the best and enjoy the lore and loot!

    The gimmick items are the candy only. They have pretty much said this is a "lore only event". Which basically means there is no event and they are just feeding us a load of crap each day for a week.

    The only real event that I know of in Aion thus far is Christmas. Where we actually get decorations in both major cities, costumes and even (from what I am told) special christmas wing models for the duration of the holiday.

    I am pretty sure we will see some type of "Asian New Year" event at some time as well, but that is yet to be seen.

    See... a witch hat would have actually been interesting. But alas, as far as i can tell, there is nada save for the candy and the "lolore".

    The time the surveys are sent out may be based on server time, so EST servers may get them 3 hours earlier than PST servers?
