Paragon Rewards Powers

Overview

Paragon Rewards Powers are permanent powers that a player may claim as part of the Paragon Rewards Program. All Paragon Reward powers are available separately for each character on that player's account, including new characters. Some of these powers are mutually exclusive. After selection, these powers cannot be re-selected, so choices should be carefully considered.

Attacks from the Paragon Rewards Program are affected by recharge and accuracy/tohit buffs, but no other buffs. However, their damage can be increased if the target is suffering from resistance debuffs.

Melee Attacks

These powers may be claimed as part of tier 3, only one of these may be claimed per character. Additionally at tier 6 each character may select a new power from either tier 3 or tier 5 powers but may not duplicate a claimed power.

Ghost Slaying Axe

This massive weapon was specifically crafted by MAGI to slay the undead. Note that Mastermind Henchmen are protected from this effect. Damage enhancing powers do not apply to the Ghost Slaying Axe.

Damage	Melee, Moderate Damage (Lethal)
Recharge	Moderate
Effects	Bonus Damage vs True Undead

This power is slightly different from the Temporary Undead Slaying Axe. Although both weapons cause the same amounts of normal and bonus damage, the Paragon Rewards weapon's bonus damage is Energy damage, whereas the Undead Slaying Axe's bonus damage is a special type that is unaffected by resistances. These two powers do different amounts of bonus damage to Undead targets that have a resistance or a vulnerability to Energy damage. Also, the Temporary version's normal damage is buffable.

• 130% bonus damage vs. Circle of Thorn spirits
• 100% bonus damage vs. Banished Pantheon zombies

Ranged Attacks

These powers may be claimed on tier 5, only one of these may be claimed per character.

If you select one of these powers as your tier 6 reward, it will not have bonus damage based upon origin.

Nemesis Staff

Veteran Nemesis Staff

This strange, steam-powered staff shoots a bolt of energy that deals damage, knocks back foes. The Nemesis is particularly effective when wielded by Technology, Science or Natural origin individuals. Damage enhancing powers do not apply to the Nemesis Staff.

This power is slightly different from the Temporary Nemesis Staff. The Temporary version offers no bonus damage based on origin, sometimes Disorients its target, and sometimes doesn't knock its target back. The Temporary version's damage is also buffable.

Damage	Ranged, Moderate (Smashing)
Recharge	Long
Effects	Bonus Damage for Technology/Science/Natural Origin characters, Foe Knockback

Blackwand

This black metal wand feels cold in your hand, and glows with dark arcane energies. When used by Magic, Mutant or Natural origin individuals, the potency of its attacks are increased. Damage enhancing powers do not apply to the Blackwand.

This power is slightly different from the Temporary Blackwand. The Temporary version offers bonus damage only to Magic origin characters, and it does not reduce its target's accuracy. The Temporary version's damage is also buffable.

Damage	Ranged, Moderate (Negative)
Recharge	Long
Effects	Bonus Damage for Magic/Mutant/Natural Origin characters, Foe -ToHit

Note: The Blackwand's description in the initial power selection popup fails to mention that Natural Origin characters get a damage bonus with it.
