Issue 2 Edition 3 brings a twist to CoH's Winter Event.
It's the Fright Before Christmas! Get ready for NEW Holiday Horror mobs, NEW Ice Power Customizations, NEW Powerset Proliferation for Ice Melee, Armor and Cold Domination!
During this event, Halloween mobs festooned in winter wear burst from presents! All drop both Candy Canes and Halloween salvage, good for Lords of Winter and All Hallow's Eve super packs. There are even two giant monsters, including a rare icy version of a familiar friend.
All-new Assassin's Icicle power FX for Stalker Ice Melee, with both icicle stab and ice sword variations (with greater ice sword option)
Ice Armor style powers now have four new, less obtrusive power themes so your character no longer has to be covered in ice cubes! This affects Ice Armor's Frozen Armor, Wet Ice, Glacial Armor, and Energy Absorption (only has Frost theme for now), Cold Domination's Ice Shield and Glacial Shield, and all versions of Frozen Armor in ancillary/patron pools.
Icy Coating theme: A shifting layer of thin icy chips fitting closer to your character's body
Frost Armor theme: A subtle layer of translucent frost on your character
Chill Armor theme: A cloud of cold mist around your character
No Covering theme: A minimal FX style theme with no obscuring graphics

The Fright Before Christmas
Twas the Fright Before Christmas and all through the City, Many creatures were stirring, none of them pretty. Presents were scattered waiting for clicks. Proof that the Gamester was up to old tricks. Villains were nestled all snug in their lairs Nefarious plots their only cares. My teammates and I had just gotten back From thwarting another Freakshow attack. When what to my wondering eyes should appear, But Vampires and Witches at the wrong time of year.
