Finn! Thanks for dropping in just to share this gift.
1 question - does it actually work?

Well its works and it doesn't....
i have 2 accounts on the first one i tried (my main) it gave me this error message
"Your items could not be sent, please login to Champions Online and reenter your code. If you continue to have problems, please contact customer support for further help."
but on another account (an alt i almost never use) it worked just fine. so YMMV
Edit: after checking in on my main i received only the Webs costume set, nothing else. On my alt account i noticed that the titles have to be claimed per character, its a bound item you get in your inventory and have to activate, But you can get it for multiple characters, just not all at once from one use.

It's been same with previous titles and bonuses. You have to claim them per character. And yes, there seems to be some quirks on the code entering. And no official announcement at the CO forums yet, so no idea whats going on.

Hi guys, just confirming this worked for me. The trick was, as Finn pointed out, you use the code in ARC, but get the swag inside CO's Zen Store, all the way in the Bonus tab.
(A lot of people were confused about that last part, because it's hidden so deep in those tabs.)
Predictions! The Hannibal Lector masked is going to be the new Blackred; you're going to see that a lot. The "Dr" title will be used to make Dr. Doom and Dr. Strange clones.

What, no Dr. Destroyer clones? Had those for years. Meet Steampunk Desty.

Okay, the first rounds of freebies? Neat. Some unique titles, a costume pack, nothing really big.
This new round of freebies? Way better. Two FREE hideouts, neither of which I happen to own yet; that's $12 worth of Zen in the Z-Store. I heartily approve.

Yeah, this 2nd promo is such a wonderful giveaway.
Now, I already had the Alchemist's Sanctum, and I found I could mix and match that with the Druid's Sanctum to really personalize it.
The Cave is so versatile with different themes. I never realized it could be the 1 Hideout that could be customized to all character types.
My favourite part? It's like the Sanctum is like Wayne Manor while the Cave is like the Batcave below. It seems almost deliberate.
I reckon the ARC promo is PWE's idea, but Cryptic North decided what to offer for CO, and they put some thought into this. Very nice of them.

True importance of this giveaway is a free account bank. Now, I have both hideouts for a long time, but for many freebooters it is a huge gift.

I just downloaded ARC.
The first 'freebie' code worked fine. Got the costumes and the Titles and whatever else came with it.
The second code said 'Incorrect' (or something like that).
Were the free Hideouts a temporary 'freebie' and I missed my chance? I double-checked and made sure that I entered the code exactly as it is on the ARC's website.
Is it safe to keep ARC running in the background at all times even when I'm not playing Champions Online?
