He is seeking respondants to a short survey (approximately ten minutes).  To encourage players to take part, they are raffling 12 free months of gameplay to one of the participants.  If you are interested in taking the survey, visit the [http://www.psy.uq.edu.au/webq/public/survey.php?name=City_of_Villains_Survey survey site].  I've also added a site link on the left in the "links" list.

I've updated the [{{CoVMapPatchLatest}} downloadable in-game maps] to version 0.4.  There were a few minor additions and an icon added to aid in getting the [[Sweet Tooth Badge]] in Cap au Diable.  Currently, only the big four maps are included (Breakout, Mercy Island, Port Oakes, and Cap au Diable) plus Bloody Bay, but very soon I plan on releasing version 1.0, which will include all known information about all city zones.  Stay tuned!

The City of Villains beta and head start is over, and the game is now officially live for the general public.

==== A shorter URL ====

I have added '''<nowiki>http://wiki.pcfreepress.com</nowiki>''' to be redirected to this site.  This may make it a little easier to give the URL out in-game.  The old URL of '''<nowiki>http://www.pcfreepress.com/wiki</nowiki>''' will continue to work as well, in case anyone has the site bookmarked.

Speaking of giving out the URL in-game, if you find this wiki useful, please refer people to it in-game.  I don't derive any financial profit from raising traffic at the site (in fact, it could eventually end up costing me a little more money if throngs of people flock here), but as a stereotypical geek, it makes me all warm and gooey inside when I see good numbers of visitors each month coming to see what's here.

Welcome

Freedom logo.png

Welcome to the Paragon Wiki Archive, a central repository of all things related to NCsoft's City of Heroes, the world's most popular superhero-themed MMORPG; covering from launch on April 28, 2004, to the final sunset on November 30, 2012, and even beyond. It is a community effort, created and maintained by more than two thousand volunteers since 2005.

City of Heroes was home to an entire multiverse of superpowered beings in a stunning, 3D graphical world. Hundreds of thousands of players took on the roles of heroes, villains, vigilantes, and rogues, while both saving and destroying worlds. City of Heroes was known for its groundbreaking level of customization, its highly community-focused features, and its abundant developer-player interaction and feedback.

EdLetter.png Editor's Note:

If you're looking for information about content on Homecoming, or any other independent servers, you won't find it in Paragon Wiki. Our current policy is to keep Paragon Wiki as a historical reference to the official game as it was at shutdown, up to and including information about Issue 24 beta. If you want to make contributions to the Homecoming Wiki, go to https://forums.homecomingservers.com/. If you have questions about this, please reference this discussion thread on the forums. Thanks.

Contributing to the Wiki

City of Heroes may be closed, but the Paragon Wiki is not. We welcome any content you're able to add, fill in, or revise!

Getting familiar with Paragon Wiki's Article Guidelines and the Help pages prior to contributing makes a big difference in helping a new editor get settled. A lot of wiki syntax assistance can be found in the Help pages.

Don't know where to start? A good place to begin is by editing articles that are designated as stubs, incomplete, or works in progress. These articles need anything from minor tweaks to major overhauls, and anything you have to add would be appreciated! Once you're comfortable, you can take a look at the Wanted Pages, a list of linked-to articles that don't yet exist.
