Thanks guys! I read everything so don't feel bad if you wrote a lot :P All your answers really helped in my basic understanding of the game. I'll check out the Mentor channel and Paragon Wiki for any other questions.

Thanks for the welcome, guys. I've formulated a few more specific questions:

1. How do raids work? Are PUGs formed similar to how they are in WoW? (sorry, lots of my questions will be me trying to figure out the game by using one I already know)
2. Is there a guild mechanic of any kind?
3. I have noticed Galaxy City is pretty much empty. Are places like Galaxy City just hubs for instances? Is there an instance database similar to Atlas for WoW where I can find maps and bosses?
4. How many people still play the game? It looks like a lot but are there any specific figures?
5. What kind of loot can you get? In WoW you can get items ranging from grey to orange, but there isn't armor or weapons in COH.

I guess that's all for now, but I'm sure there will be more to come :P thanks everyone!

Hey everyone, I just started playing COH tonight. It seems like a pretty fun game but complex as well. I used to play a lot of WoW so I'm no stranger to MMORPGs but I was wondering if anyone might have some pointers, tips, general info or guides. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great!
