'''Willpower''' is one of the powersets to come.  It is a [[Scrapper]] secondary power set and a [[Tanker]] primary set in City of Heroes, and a [[Stalker]] and [[Brute]] secondary powerset in City of Villains. It is set to come out with issue 11.

'''Willpower''' is a standard power set that is a primary set for [[Tanker]]s and a secondary set for [[Brute]]s, [[Scrapper]]s, and [[Stalker]]s.
  
According to the devs, the set relies heavilly on passive powers, with little in the way of flashy animations, to represent the stereotypical "tough guy". The set offers decent smashing, lethal, psi and toxic resists, and poor resistance but decent defense to fire, cold, energy and negative energy. Tankers and Brutes have a taunt aura called "Rise to the Challenge" that raises regeneration for every enemy in melee.

"You aren't Invulnerable. Bullets don't bounce off of you, and if you are cut, you bleed. You are, however, tough, grizzled and strong willed. It takes more than a little cut to keep you down! Willpower offers a strong balance of healing, damage resistance and defense. While you have no real vulnerabilities, you can't quite deal with 'alpha strikes' as well as some other protective powers."

=== [[File:Willpower HeightenedSenses.png]] Heightened Senses ===
 
+
You become more aware of your environment and its hazards while this power is activated. This will increase your Defense versus environmental damage as long as it is active. Your Heightened Senses also allow you to perceive stealthy foes and resist Defense DeBuffs.
When this power is on, for each nearby foe in melee range you receive a bonus to Defense against all attacks but Psionics, and a bonus to your Accuracy. This power is most effective when fighting multiple opponents. The first foe you engage in melee grants the highest Defense bonus, and up to 10 foes can contribute to your Defense and ToHit Bonus.

=== [[File:Willpower Hide.png]] Hide ===
 
+
Hide makes you almost impossible to detect. When properly 'Hidden', a Stalker can pull off Critical hits with his attacks, and even land a massive 'Assassin's Strike' with an Assassin's power. When you attack or are damaged while using this power, you will be discovered. Even if discovered, you are hard to see and retain some bonus to Defense. Unlike most stealth powers, Hide can be used at the same time as other Concealment powers, giving you even greater stealth capability. No Endurance cost.
You are naturally resistant to the elements and always take less Fire, Cold,
+
and Toxic damage. This power is always on and costs no Endurance.

Endurance recovery is also increased. Unstoppable costs very little Endurance to activate, but when it wears off you are left exhausted, and drained of almost all Health and Endurance.

=== [[File:Willpower RiseToTheChallenge.png]] Rise to the Challenge ===
 +
The more the odds are against you, the more determined you become. When surrounded by foes, your ability to regenerate health increases greatly. Additionally, your resolve and the look in your eye is enough to leave most foes shaken, so their attacks are less accurate. The first foe you engage in melee grants the highest regeneration bonus, and up to 10 foes can contribute to this effect.

When you activate this power, you not only become extremely resistant to most damage, but also to Disorient, Immobilization, Hold, Knockback, Repel and Sleep effects. Strength of Will costs little Endurance to activate and increases your recovery for its duration, but when it wears off you are left exhausted, and substantially drained of Endurance. Note that Strength of Will is unaffected by Attack Rate changes.

Overview

Willpower is a standard power set that is a primary set for Tankers and a secondary set for Brutes, Scrappers, and Stalkers.

"You aren't Invulnerable. Bullets don't bounce off of you, and if you are cut, you bleed. You are, however, tough, grizzled and strong willed. It takes more than a little cut to keep you down! Willpower offers a strong balance of healing, damage resistance and defense. While you have no real vulnerabilities, you can't quite deal with 'alpha strikes' as well as some other protective powers."

Willpower Hide.png Hide

Hide makes you almost impossible to detect. When properly 'Hidden', a Stalker can pull off Critical hits with his attacks, and even land a massive 'Assassin's Strike' with an Assassin's power. When you attack or are damaged while using this power, you will be discovered. Even if discovered, you are hard to see and retain some bonus to Defense. Unlike most stealth powers, Hide can be used at the same time as other Concealment powers, giving you even greater stealth capability. No Endurance cost.
