So it was Supergroup night at City of Heroes on Wendesday. My level 32 scrapper, Bouncin’, joined her sisters from the Strippers of Paragon City in a little Trick or Treating.

The Strippers of Paragon City are mostly a bunch of clones of each other, so when we gather in groups of two or more we tend to attract a crowd. Especially when we dance. (Confession: Bouncin’ once gave a virtual lapdance to another player for a million influence. I told the Husband Unit. He was fine with it.)

At first it was just the tanker, Grindin’, and Bouncin’ knocking on doors. Later, when the blaster Bumpin’ and defender (a healer – you need one of those) Slinkin’ showed up, we pretty much farmed a door.

I found it a bit ho-hum at times. The hordes that attacked us were nothing compared to the mobs that our SG usually fights on Wednesdays. Generally, we fight mobs that generate red or purple given our size and the level of one of our regulars, controller Pearl Necklace is currently at.

The costume pieces are still dropping, so you can still earn your fifth costume slot. But they won’t let you get a sixth. I tried. So I will be selling lots of that salvage.

The attraction for the experienced gamer this year is the possibility of getting a temporary power that will let you look like your favourite Non-Player Characters. Villain groups, the cops or others. I managed to collect some costumes, enough that I also got my first costume collector badge. My fave costume was the Carnival of Shadows one, as it makes my bum look cute. (Not exactly as pictured.)

After about an hour I was bored and called it a night. Next week, on Halloween, it’s Giant Monster time. I have already killed Eochai with Bouncin’, but I’m not sure if I got the badge.

I am really after Jack in Irons. I was too low a level last year to go for him. This year, he is going down!!!!!
