Demonflame Expansion

I've been away so long from the game that I missed the Revelation expansion and barely got my feet wet in Serpent Lantern and now Demonflame is out.

I like the clip at which new content is coming out:

• September 2009 - Champions Online released
• October 2009 - Blood Moon (Halloween) event
• November 2009 - Nemesis Confrontation
• December 2009 - Attack Of The Misfit Toys (Christmas) Event
• March 2010 - Revelation
• June 2010 - Serpent Lantern
• October 2010 - Demonflame

Anyway, these new expansions are very challenging especially since I like to solo.

I guess this is in place of what would have been our Halloween event.  This definitely is creepy enough to have that Halloween feel.

This guy with wings is really tough to beat solo.  I tried using my level 32 Dual Blades character.  I'll try with my 30+ munitions character and archery character later.

I also try to give my characters a Halloween costume.  I came up with this Thundercats-like costume for my Dual Blades character.  How do you like it?

Halloween Costumes In Champions Online

Champions Online has come out with special sets of Halloween costumes and you need Cryptic points to get them. I used all the Cryptic points I earned in the game on the Cyborg Beast costume, which you saw in my last post. But, I wanted the Epic Samurai set and the complete Halloween set as well.

So, I drank the Kool-Aid and actually spent money on getting Cryptic Points. I thought $25 for 2000 Cryptic points wouldn't break my bank.

Here's just some of the costume options I got:

Epic Samurai

A perfect set for Technoblade since he is proficient with the samurai blade and is also of Japanese ancestry. I quickly put together this costume. I'm not set on that white color, but it's a departure from the other look.

Skeleton & Web Set

This costume for Island Warrior has elements of the Skeleton and Web set. I really LOVE this Halloween costume. It really screams Halloween out to you! I also love that noose around his neck.

Cyborg Beast Costume

There are some new costumes that are for sale in the Champions Store (C-Store). If you have accumuluated a lot of Cryptic Points, then you can buy some of them. I got myself the Cyborg Beast Costume set. Looks pretty cool, huh? I really like the robotic wings.

You can also purchase Cryptic points with real cash to get these limited time goodies. There's also a whole bunch of Halloween themed costumes. Once you get one set of costumes, it will be available for all of your characters.
