Overview
Issue 12 provided villains with a new way to respond to any special event that may be occurring anywhere in Paragon City. A new chat channel was created, which announces the beginning and end of "Monster Activity" and special zone events. It accepts no input from players.
To access this option all a villains needs to do is left-click on any of the current chat tabs and select edit, or right-click to create a new tab. Once the edit screen appears, look through the list of available chat options on the right side and select the Villain Zone Event Message option and hit add. The Event Message will then move to the left side of the screen. Click on okay and the option is now saved and event messages will appear in in whichever chat tab was updated.
Message Types
Messages vary based on the activity but include:
- Messages that announce an increase in monster activity in the zones that spawn Giant Monsters.
- Ghost of Scrapyard
- Miner Strike in progress in Sharkhead Isle.
- Depawn message needed.
- Deathsurge
- Deathsurge has been spotted in Cap au Diable.
- Despawn/kill message needed. +++ Missing Information +++
- Caleb
- The Demon Caleb has been spotted in Nerva Archipelago.
- Despawn/kill message needed.
- Arachnos Flier
- Arachnos Flyer patrol beginning in Grandville.
- No message for despawn or defeat.
- Messages that announce a zone invasion is underway.
- Rikti Invasion
- [Vanguard] WARNING: Rikti ships have been detected heading for <zone>.
- [Vanguard] DANGER!: Rikti invasion forces have been spotted in <zone>. Non-combatants are advised to seek cover.
- [Vanguard] ALERT CANCELLED: The Rikti have retreated from <zone>.
- Zombie Apocalypse
- WARNING: Zombie attack in <zone>.
- ALERT CANCELED: The zombies have disappeared from <zone>.
Notes
- This provides a very good tool for villains in obtaining the badges associated with these Giant Monsters and zone events.
- Both Villain Zone Event Messages and Hero Zone Event Messages can be activated irrespective of the side a player is on (CoH/V), enabling, for instance, a villain to be alerted to the Hellion Arson Fire Event in Steel Canyon or a hero to Caleb's spawn.
