Revision as of 00:51, 25 September 2011
- This article is about the real-money store. For the in-game market, see Consignment House.
Overview
The Paragon Market was introduced with Issue 21/City of Heroes Freedom. The Paragon Market is technically an RMT option sponsored by NCsoft instead of breaking the EULA by buying from "gold farmers". Players can buy Paragon Points with real money, and then purchase items, costumes, archetypes, powersets, and content in the Paragon Market; 400 Paragon Points are also awarded monthly for keeping a VIP subscription.
Any Free Player who purchases from the Paragon Market will automatically be upgraded to a Premium Player.
Items
Items in the store can be manually searched for, or selected using the categories provided. They can be sorted by Best Selling, Price, or Alphabetically.
Paragon Picks
Paragon Picks are rotating featured items (which may or may not be on sale) that Paragon Studios is highlighting. These features may only last a couple hours, or a day, or they may last a week or more.

Developer Clarifications
In a post to the Official Forums on June 24, 2011, Ghost Falcon clarified details about the Paragon Market and Paragon Points:
Q: We’ve been told that all VIP players will receive 400 Paragon Points per month as part of their subscription. What exactly does this mean?
- All VIP players will receive 400 Paragon Points per month as part of their VIP subscription. Currently, 400 Paragon Points is equal to $5.00 (USD).
- Zwillinger Clarified that unlike Paragon Reward tokens, the Paragon Points in multi-month subscriptions are awarded monthly. They are not awarded upfront in a large lump sum.
Q: As a current subscriber to City of Heroes, I receive 400 Paragon Points per month starting on July 1st, 2011. What does this mean as we move towards City of Heroes Freedom?
- From July 1st, 2011 until City of Heroes Freedom launch, *ALL* paying customers that have an active billing "day" within the month will receive 400 Paragon Points. (Please note Trial Accounts do not receive this benefit).
For example:
- If you renew or start a regular game (non-Trial) account on July 1st, you will receive 400 Paragon Points for the month of July.
- If you renew or start a regular game (non-Trial) account on July 31st, you will receive 400 Paragon Points for the month of July..
- If your Subscription ends on July 2nd, and you choose to NOT reactivate your subscription, you will receive 400 Paragon Points for the month of July when City of Heroes Freedom launches.
- For the months following, as long as you have an active account during that "month" (i.e. August, September, etc), your account will be credited with 400 Paragon Points for each month leading up to City of Heroes Freedom Launch.
Q: So I know that right now, 400 Paragon Points = $5.00 (USD) but what I don’t have an idea of is what exactly 400 Points can buy me.
- As mentioned earlier, 400 Paragon Points is equivalent to $5.00 (US Dollars), and I’ve gone on record that 400 Paragon Points will allow players to buy a lot of "stuff". I’ve listed a smattering of pricing examples below, including the new Signature Stories, that will hopefully give you a better sense of general Paragon Point values. Please note that these prices (and others in our Beta) are currently the *target* prices, and may change prior to City of Heroes Freedom Launch.

What different ways will I be able to purchase Paragon Points?
To cover both bases, I want to be sure to clarify the two ways players will be able to acquire Paragon Points:
We are exploring additional options for purchasing Paragon Points, and will update you once those plans have been solidified and set in stone.
- The first is through VIP Subscription where VIP customers receive 400 free Paragon Points per month.
- The second is through the in-game Store.
- Points can be purchased in Paragon Point "bundles".
- The smallest bundle size will be $5.00 for 400 Paragon Points.
- If a player buys Paragon Points in larger bundles, additional Bonus Points will be added to the bundle. At this time, the "Bonus Points" for the higher bundle purchases is still being determined.
- There will be several payment options for players, including various credit cards and Paypal.
