== Overview ==
 +
The '''Paragon Rewards Program''' was introduced to take over from the [[Veteran Rewards Program]].  Instead of granting a specific reward every three months, it allows a player to choose which reward they want out of a tier-restricted "tree" of rewards by spending [[Reward Tokens]].
  
 +
==Description==
 +
The Paragon Rewards Program includes [[Paragon Rewards Powers|powers]], [[Paragon Rewards Costumes|costume pieces]], [[Paragon Rewards Base Items|base items]] and other additional [[Paragon Rewards Perks|gameplay perks]]. It also allows [[Premium Player]]s to access to game features otherwise restricted to [[VIP Player|VIP]] subscribers.  Content and features unlocked via Paragon Rewards stay unlocked for that account, regardless of subscription status, except for Tier 9 VIP rewards.

'''VIP Subscribers'''
__NOTOC__
+
*VIP subscribers are given one Reward Token per month of paid subscription time and one additional Reward Token for every full 12 months of paid subscription time. 
== Overview ==
+
*These tokens are available immediately after paying.  For example, buying a 12 month subscription plan immediately credits 13 reward tokens to your account (12 "monthly tokens" plus the "one year" token).
The '''Paragon Rewards Program''' was introduced to take over where the [[Veteran Rewards Program]] left off. Instead of granting a specific award every three months, the Paragon Rewards Program grants a token every month, plus one for every full year (so a twelve month veteran has 13 tokens, a thirteen month veteran has 14 tokens, a 24 month veteran has 26 tokens, etc.), which allows the player to choose which reward he or she wants that month out of a tier-restricted "tree" of rewards. This means that players can take their rewards in the order they wish, though in order to advance to the next tier of rewards, a player's current rewards tier must be completely filled out. For instance, Tier 6 is composed of seven rewards; in order to move on to Tier 7, all seven Tier 6 rewards must be chosen. Tiers are composed of one to seven rewards, which include both previous Veteran Rewards Program items and new items. There are nine tiers of rewards, which includes a set of Tier 9 rewards at that are restricted to [[VIP Player]]s.
+
 
 +
'''Premium Players'''
 +
*VIP subscribers and Premium Players are granted one Reward Token for spending $15 on the [[Paragon Market]], which equates to 1,200 [[Paragon Points]].
 +
*Premium Players who were previous subscribers will gain a variable number of reward tokens based on previous paid subscription time.  [[Paragon Rewards#Converting from Veteran Rewards Program|This]] will help someone figure out how many Reward Tokens should be awarded.
 +
 
 +
'''Free Players'''
 +
*[[Free Player]]s are granted one reward token with account creation.

Reward tokens are also granted for spending $15USD (/£?/€?) on the [[Paragon Market]], which equates to 1,200 [[Paragon Points]].

Celestial Packs I, II and III were made available from dd/mm/yyyy ([[Issue 21]]) until dd/mm/yyyy.
  
Content unlocked via [[Paragon Rewards]] stays unlocked for that account, regardless of subscription status, except for the special Tier 9 VIP rewards. Additionally, Paragon Rewards are granted ''on top of'' the 400 Paragon Points a VIP Player is awarded each month for an active subscription. Additionally, if a player is Tier 9 VIP status, they get an extra 150 PP per month ''on top of'' the 400 points for a standard VIP subscription, for a total of 550 free PP per month.

While the announcement for the 400 free Paragon Points has been mistakenly believed to include extra free Paragon Rewards tokens, this is not the case. You will start getting 1 token a month after [[City of Heroes: Freedom]] launch, not before.

Overview

The Paragon Rewards Program was introduced to take over from the Veteran Rewards Program. Instead of granting a specific reward every three months, it allows a player to choose which reward they want out of a tier-restricted "tree" of rewards by spending Reward Tokens.

Description

The Paragon Rewards Program includes powers, costume pieces, base items and other additional gameplay perks. It also allows Premium Players to access to game features otherwise restricted to VIP subscribers.

  • These tokens are available immediately after paying. For example, buying a 12 month subscription plan immediately credits 13 reward tokens to your account (12 "monthly tokens" plus the "one year" token).

Premium Players

  • VIP subscribers and Premium Players are granted one Reward Token for spending $15 on the Paragon Market, which equates to 1,200 Paragon Points.

Converting from Veteran Rewards Program

For a veteran from before City of Heroes Freedom launch, it takes a simple math formula to assess the number of tokens an account will have.

N/4 + N/12 (N = Number of months subscribed; round down)

For those that prefer not to have to do the math above, you can simply add up your veteran rewards tokens and add one token for every four veteran badges. You can find the tier you are entitled to by finding your highest veteran reward on the following table.
