Poor 'ole Coaly. He’s been out of action since the “What the Dickens?” update, consigned to roaming social media. But no more! After community member Jesse’s [url=https://twitter.com/Jessebots/status/718107039063478273]mashup, Coaly’s been inspired to come out of retirement to honor the Rogue en Vogue Skullsplitter Trinket. He can be yours forever, simply by logging in at any point during the Up Your Arsenal event!
Coaly’s also cheeky enough to have stolen the name of the legit Skullsplitter in the menu, along with the Rogue en Vogue obituary flair… Honestly, this is an unintended bug, which we’ll be fixing with our next update - We had the option of delaying the event but decided against it to get the little guy to you as soon as we could. Enjoy this obituary flair while it lasts - we’ll be swapping it for a Coaly-specific one with the fix.
