News headlines

Newsflash: Freebie Friday is live!

In this official announcement, Paragon Studios confirmed that Freebie Friday is live. Like last week, the promotion runs for 24 hours from 7PM Thursday 17 May, US EDT, and 'could be almost anything currently available in the Paragon Market and will change every week". So don't forget to log in each Freebie Friday and claim your item. Limit of one item per account. For all players — free, premium and VIP. In the Features area of the Paragon Market.

This Week at the Paragon Market

New! Panther Stealth Power. Transform into a black panther with stealth ability. Purchase unlocks the power for all characters on your account. Usable at level 4. Please note all powers become disabled, and untoggled, when this power is activated, and that one vanity pet is allowed. 650 Paragon Points.

This week also sees 25% off the Beast Run Power and the Coyote Travel Power. And 20% off the Animal Costume Set. Please see the official announcement for pricing and more information.

Newsflash: Freebie Friday!

Paragon Studios have announced a pilot program for the Paragon Market: Freebie Friday. The trial runs for 24 hours from 7PM Thursday 10 May, US EDT. Log in and claim your freebie in the featured section of the Paragon Market. For full details please see the official announcement.

Freedom Player Feedback: Have Your Say!

All players now have the chance to complete the City of Heroes Player Summit Survey. Ten minutes of your time can help shape the future of the game, with your thoughts on upcoming content and general feedback. The survey serves as a reference for development and marketing planning. For more information, see the official post by Zwillinger.

In this official post, Phil "Synapse" Zeleski outlines future changes to the way Procs work, intended to address community concerns regarding procs per minute versus IO static proc chances. The goals are to create a strong level of parity between IOs and Store Bought Enhancements. It's anticipated these changes will come in with Issue 24.

The post stresses the importance of community feedback on changes like this. If interested in this topic, please take the time to review the post for more information, and provide constructive feedback. The post also notes that the overall impact to gameplay on existing PPM enhancements will be small.

This Week at the Paragon Market

This week sees 50% off three healing and one hold Enhancement Sets: Numina's Convalescence, Touch of the Nictus, Theft of Essence and Unbreakable Constraint. Each set is available as a bundle, or individually, cannot be sold or traded to other players, but can be emailed to other characters on your own game account.

Other sale items include 25% off all Enhancement Unslotters and Enhancement Boosters. For more information and pricing, please see the Paragon Market in game.

City of Heroes: Eight Years Strong

Last Saturday marked the eighth anniversary of the launch of City of Heroes. In The Successful Journey Continues, Brian "Crosscheck" Clayton recounts those years and gives some astonishing statistics. In a separate anniversary address, Matt "Positron" Miller gives his perspective on the creation and launch of the game; and tantalising glimpses into what the future may bring.

Readers may also like to look back at the very first announcement of the game; promising "Comic-Book Style Adventure Filled with Superheroes and Fearsome Villains" (they delivered!). Or We're Open for Villain Butt-Kicking, posted the day after launch.

Meanwhile, in Fallen Thunder, readers gain an insight into the mind of one of the game's most elusive enemies. Someone who promises to be making a very real appearance in person within the game world - soon.

This Week at the Paragon Market

New! The Team Transport Power. Summon a vehicle to teleport the caster and nearby teammates to the active mission's entrance. Heroic alignments summon a Longbow Chaser and Villainous alignments summon an Arachnos Flyer. It can be used once every 30-minutes. 700 Paragon Points (pp).

On sale, 25% off: Mission Transporter. Teleport to the mission door, useable once each two hours, 450pp. Street Justice melee power set, 600pp. Valkyrie Costume Pieces. Twenty costume pieces for all character types, 300pp. Read the official announcement for more details.
