Overview

Baumton was the Paragon City's first marketplace, where tradesman and farmers went to sell their wares. After the Rikti Invasion, people started calling it Boomtown, because the massive devastation reminded them of a bomb crater.

Boomtown is a Hazard zone in CoH. A hero needs to be at least level 10 to enter. It was originally called Baumton.

Exploration Badges

Phalanxer Before Baumton had its 'accident,' the Freedom Phalanx called this building home.

Regal King Mihenra, a self-proclaimed warlord from the Netherworld, attempted to seize control of Paragon City, only to be defeated by Positron on this very spot.

Vision of Despair An unnatural feeling of dread permeates the area in what is now called the Pit of Despair.

Destined for Valhalla Valkyrie proved herself to Positron by battling the Clockwork King on this spot. Although she did not succeed in defeating him, he was severely damaged and Clockwork activity came to a halt for several weeks afterwards.
