Overview
Dark Astoria is a Hazard zone in CoH. It was originally known as Astoria. Prior to Issue 16, a hero needed to be at least Security Level 21 to enter.
Recently, a beast has been spotted lurking the streets of this town. An apparition of an elderly woman has also been reported telling other heroes to leave.
Zone Events
Adamastor sometimes spawns in the Moth Cemetery neighborhood.
Neighborhoods
- Barca Plaza (Orange - Level 24-29) (Music)
- Dido's View (Orange - Level 24-29) (Music)
- Moth Cemetery (Red - Level 26-29) (Unused Music Loop)

- Romero Heights (Yellow - Level 21-26) (Music)
- St. Elegius (Green) (Unused Music)

Famous filmmakers George Romero and Sam Raimi are presumed to be the inspirations for some of these neighborhoods.
Exploration Badges
Dark Mystic Some once claimed the reason the spirits walk the streets of Dark Astoria is the fact that there is a powerful Ley Line nexus in the middle of Moth Cemetery. They have since learned the truth. |
Seeker of the Unknown This tomb was used to represent the thousands of heroes who gave their lives in the Rikti War. It now stands a mute vigil at the site of even greater atrocities. |
Location: due west of the Moth Cemetery marker by about 166 yards there is a tall mountain. At the base of the mountain is a small tunnel leading into the catacombs.
Cairn Warder Mortals erect petty monuments and cairns in the foolish pursuit of stemming the forces of Death. Mot has since sundered such vanities. |
Location: very near the NE corner, there's a rock formation which is cave-like in shape. The badge itself does not appear but is granted right at the foot of the formation's sloping ground.
Historical Plaques
- One Authority Badge monument
- One Historian Badge monument
- Two Researcher Badge monuments
Day Jobs
Mortician Your time spent studying death itself has earned you the Mortician Day Job. Logging out in a graveyard will earn you protection against Experience Debt, when you log back in, for a short time.
|
Caregiver You have spent a great deal of time working in the hospitals of Paragon City during your free time earning the Caregiver Day Job. Logging out in a Hospital will earn you a Regeneration Bonus, when you log back in, for a short time.
