- Best Costume Portrait: Journey into the world of the game and strike a pose against the best background--just your Guardian in the ideal setting for your costume. Bring a friend to take the shot, if you want, but all we want to see is you.
- Best Group Shot: Form up a Fireteam and agree on a theme for your costumes. Family affairs? Rivalries? Vendors who love their work? Your call. Show us what you come up with.
- Best Dance Party: Expert Mode: Choreograph your moves. Put on a show. This takes synchronization and a spooky sense of style.
