[quote][i]Quote from: Cuer[/i] The walkthrough is here! [hr] [url=/news/204]News Item: Trick or Treat![/url] Those expecting "the same old" Halloween festival may have been pleasantly (or otherwise) surprised by a few added complications to this year's event. There are 2 new Halloween items, a [url=/itemdb/7454]Pitchfork[/url] and a [url=/itemdb/7455]Pitchfork +1[/url]. These items, unlike the traditional Halloween items that are also available (including the [url=/itemdb/616]Trick Staff[/url], [url=/itemdb/5736]Trick Staff II[/url], [url=/itemdb/4283]Pumpkin Head[/url], [url=/itemdb/5980]Pumpkin Head II[/url], [url=/itemdb/4115]Treat Staff[/url], [url=/itemdb/5737]Treat Staff II[/url], [url=/itemdb/4284]Horror Head[/url], [url=/itemdb/5981]Horror Head II[/url]), require a party to obtain. You and one other member, preferably from the same nation for the sake of convenience, will need to party up to obtain the [url=/itemdb/7454]Pitchfork[/url], which must be obtained before you can obtain the [url=/itemdb/7455]Pitchfork +1[/url]. To obtain the Pitchfork, grab a friend and head to Bastok, San d'Oria or Windurst. The recommended zones are Bastok Markets, North San d'Oria or Windurst Waters. This is because these zones each contain the specific Halloween NPCs that roam around. (Note that Bastok Mines, South San d'Oria and Windurst Woods all have decorations and regular NPCs in costume, but it can be more difficult to get a good match in these zones.) Speak first to the Moogle in the zone, and then head out to get your costume. You can obtain a costume by trading a sweet to the NPC. A sweet is any type of [url=/itemdb/advanced-search.php?ah_catagory=Food%20/%20Meals%20/%20Sweets]sweet baked good[/url]. Note that unlike other Halloween events, items that are not crafted do not work. (This means that you can't use Faerie Apples, Saruta Oranges, Yagudo Cherries, etc.) If the sweet does not have a recipe, don't use it. (You can still buy them from an NPC, though, like [url=/itemdb/3961]Ginger Cookies[/url].) For best results, switch NPCs frequently (especially if you also want the eight "standard" rewards listed above), and use a large variety of different sweet items when trading. You and your partner will need to try different combinations of costumes in order to obtain the [url=/itemdb/7454]Pitchfork[/url]. A combination of hound and ghost worked for me in Bastok Mines. After you think you have a good combination (this may take some experimenting or checking with other players), try running together under the decorations. You may have to try all the decorations in order to get the right one. NOTE: you do not have to "check" the decorations. All you have to do is run under them. To obtain the [url=/itemdb/7455]Pitchfork +1[/url], you will need to head to a [i]different[/i] city than the one where you received your [url=/itemdb/7454]Pitchfork[/url]. You may do this with the same partner, or a different partner. This is where being from the same nation as your partner comes in handy. You will need to find the NPC that normally turns characters into the enemy of their home nation. Equip your [url=/itemdb/7454]Pitchfork[/url], and trade a sweet to this NPC. Instead of turning you into the enemy of your home nation, the NPC will instead turn you into a goblin. Once you and your partner have both turned into goblins, you must run around to the decorations, just like before, to try and obtain your [url=/itemdb/7455]Pitchfork +1[/url]. A Bastokan will need to find the NPC that normally turns players into a Quadav, a Windurstian will need to find the NPC that turns players into a Yagudo, and a San d'Orian will need to find the NPC that turns players into an Orc. If you wish to obtain the other holiday events, you will have a much easier (though more costly) time, and you do not need a partner. Simply trade a sweet to one of the NPCs. The NPC will turn you into a monster, or give you a Halloween item. This may take a lot of different sweets, a lot of time trading different NPCs, and a lot of time waiting for new days and running around.
