Jackolytes Explained
So, today there was a new patch with most of you guys are angry about, because it patched the Atheon push off. But, it seems to be that our beloved [b]Postmaster[/b] has brought us some gifts as well.
If you go to the Postmaster in the Tower, you will have received a package containing 3 "Jackolytes". Some of you may have been (or still are) confused about what they are exactly, so i'm here to tell you what they are. If you [b]press start then go to your inventory[/b] and hover over the "Jackolytes" you will see this: [i]The Hive may haunt the dreams of children, but you haunt the dreams of the Hive[/i] you will also see that it says hold X (or square if PS user) to use, meaning its a consumable.
If you use it/consume it you will see that you get this very cool Hive styles pumpkin on your head, in addition to that it only last 30 minutes, so use it wisely. As far as I can tell it is only for [b]aesthetic purposes, meaning no buffs.[/b] None the less it looks really cool, and on top of that you hear spooky screams whilst wearing it. Thanks for reading, and Happy Halloween! :D

Edit: As [b]IvaliceGilgamesh[/b] quoted "[i]People it's a glimmer increase, you can get them to drop from hive enemies as well (majors)[/i]". Whether or not this is true I have not been able to confirm, but it makes perfect sense!

One weekend if you had one and went to Xur he had an extra item that changed the look of your respawn for 24 hours. Don't know if it still works or not.
-
They do drop from hive majors and ultras. Confirmed.
-
1 ReplySomething that should be mentioned is that it doesn't seem like it will work after you complete the nightfall, because of the flames.
-
1 ReplyShould have given us Monkey heads instead!
-
Woah! Only 30 minutes? That's incredible!
-
5 RepliesTried one, and got nothing. Bungie, who is making these silly decisions? A limited use time holiday item (that doesn't apparently work...)? Why not a permanent item of some sort? Helmet, or holographic pumpkin head that has unlimited uses? Class items seem particularly suited for this, since they are purely aesthetic anyway, why not that? Yet another disappointment :(.
-
1 ReplyIf you have completed the nightfall, the pumpkin will not show up.
-
Never activated anything for me. No helmet, buff, dance, nerf, teleportation. Mine were duds.

Edited by l Beanie l: 10/29/2014 9:54:16 AMI consumed one. I did wonder what those screams were! Pretty cool. I also picked one up earlier from a dead enemy. Hopefully I can find more. I hope they don't self destruct after Halloween.
-
2 RepliesCool they gave us Pumpkin heads, I'll wait until Monkey blows over before I even log back on though. Might just go buy Sunset OD instead of playing tonight since things are so screwy and Bungie doesn't seem to actually care what people want.
-
2 RepliesPeople it's a glimmer increase, you can get them to drop from hive enemies as well (majors)
-
Hahaha it doesn't even work
-
Awesome a glimmer increase. What do I get buy with it. Candy? Doubtful glimmer is creaking worthless in this game. I already have way to much of it anyways.
-
Trending :D Thanks guys! :D
-
5 RepliesI've burnt through 2 already and didn't get the head from either. Anyone else have this problem.
-
Didn't even work for me. gud gaem
-
I'm so happy that I have a god damn pumpkin. Words cannot express how excited I am to put a friggin pumpkin on my head. Whenever the game allows me to stay in the world longer than 5 minutes I just might slap that -blam!-ing pumpkin on my head. -blam!-.
-
When I logged out and logged back in it was gone
-
7 RepliesBungie needs to read the Gospel of Valve when it comes to in game economies, drops, and special events. Valve does shit right
-
Should have given us 3 that last for 7 days each. And fix the damn shit so it actually works
-
3 RepliesOMfudginG, I got a fudgin pumpkin to put on my head while fudgin kill sh1t! I just might sh1t myself!
-
I got some good laughs out of it. Everyone here just needs to laugh a little bit more.
-
1 ReplyI wanted shader. Not one and done consumable :(
-
It doesn't work properly, after I used it I never had a pumpkin on my head in any game type.
-
2 RepliesI think it's broken for many of us. Me and my friend both used it and did not have a pumpkin head for the duration of the use.
-
Didn't work wtf how u do it
