Notes
- This provides a very good tool for heroes in obtaining many badges including several needed to complete Accolades.
- There is also a Villain Zone Event Message option that provides the same information to those playing CoV .
- (speculation only) While it can not be confirmed until the event occur during the Winter Event that take place annually. Messages will probably appear announcing the spawn of Winter Lord as they arrive in zones throughout both Paragon City and the Rogue Isles.
