Overview

Your archetype is arguably the most important choice you make while creating a hero or a villain. It determines which powers are—and aren't—available for you to use during the entire lifetime of your character. The decision of which archetype to play should be made based on what type of philosophy you wish to use for your character.

City of Heroes Archetypes

When you first make a character, you may select one of five available archetypes.

After one of your characters has reached level 50, two more archetypes called epic archetypes become available.
