Synopsis: A new group of villains working with Arachnos; technology abound; Manticore on their tail, and you answer the call.

Notes: Story-driven. 4 short missions. Has one EB and one EB/AV. Solo-friendly below Difficulty 5 (Invincible), to downgrade the AV into an EB. Soloing on Difficulty 1 (Heroic) makes it somewhat too easy for most, Difficulty 2-4 is recommended. Contains allies in the final mission.

If you only play one story arc this year, I highly recommend the one with Doc Buzzsaw and the Superfreak! But if you feel like running MA arcs, you might enjoy:

Arc Name: The Eyes of Nostradamus
Arc ID: 18071
Faction: Neutral
Difficulty Level: Medium. Not a lot of custom enemies, but some nasty standard ones. Has an EB at the end.
Synopsis: A kidnapped Midnighter leads you into a tale of time travel and secret societies, as you race to prevent the rise of the prophesied King of Terror.
Estimated Time to Play: 30 minutes to 1 hour

Arc Name: Broken Promises Part 1: Darkness Within
Arc ID: 18845
Faction: Neutral (Wincott doesn't care if you are a hero or self proclaimed Villain, only that the promise is kept)
Creator Global/Forum Name: @Narda1(on Test) / @Narda (on Live) / Susie Vir (on Forums)
Difficulty Level: Easy to Medium
Level Range: Mission 1 (20+) Mission 2,3, and 4 (40-50)
Synopsis: David Wincott's father had once promised to keep the golden age hero Marfek's daughter safe as she played hero. He failed and Jo'an disappeared. Now Wincott wants your help in keeping his father's promise in trying to save Jo'an.


Notes: Maybe considered "elseworlds" style. Centers around a golden age hero named Marfek who was the arch-nemesis of Lord Nemesis. The hero retires after his wife is murdered. His daughter takes up the mantle but disappears after investigating a former Crey scientist. The story springs right before she disappears and the aftermath.
Estimated Time to Play: 30 to 90 minutes

I think I worked out most of the bugs, but comments and suggestions are welcome.

Difficulty Level: default villains are level 35 Rogue Robots
Features: 1 Mission, Large Map, maximum allowed number of events including: Ambush, Boss, Collection, Patrol, Release Captive, Ally, Defeat All, Arch-Villain
Synopsis: Meet members of the Krusaders supergroup! Battle alongside them while investigating a mysterious threat from their past!
Author's Note: The Krusaders are a colorful, eclectic team of superheroes that originated years ago back when I played the pencil-and-paper superhero roleplaying game, Champions, with a group of friends. The characters were developed by the players in our gaming group. It's fun for me to see the Krusaders brought to life in City of Heroes! I hope you enjoy adventuring with my old friends, the Krusaders, in my story arc!

Arc Name: Death for Dollars!
Arc ID: 18663
Faction: Custom
Difficulty Level: Low-Medium
Synopsis: The makers of arcade classics 'Destruction Cinema' and 'Absolute Mayhem' bring you the action-packed, gore-filled Virtual Reality show, 'Death for Dollars'!
Estimated Time to Play: 20-30 minutes (3 medium sized missions)
Link to More Details or Feedback: Feedback Thread

[/ QUOTE ]

I've made a second, team oriented version of this arc. The story is exactly the same, only the foes are far more challenging (and better fit the theme of the story). Here is the relevant information for the second version that is different:

Arc Name: Death for Dollars Extreme!
Arc ID: 19354
Difficulty Level: Very High (intended for teaming, play the other one if you want to solo it)
Estimated Time to Play: 45-60 minutes on a decent team

The feedback thread is the same as quoted above!

I figure that when we go live I'll see which one is liked more by the community and delete the other one to make room for a new story.

Please try my custom mission arcs!

Arc Name: Walking Within the Shadows of Man
Arc ID: 16740
Faction: Mostly Shadows of Man (custom) with CoT and Nemesis thrown in there
Creator Global/Forum Name: @Batterin' Ram
Difficulty Level: on par with live content, but ramps up a LOT with higher difficulties
Estimated Time to Play: about an hour
Synopsis:
The Shadows of Man are a group of assassins that have gained new technology that has allowed them to pursue world domination. Their first targets are the Knives of Artemis and the Malta Group. You will end up siding with these villain groups in order to take down this revived threat.

The Shadows of Man is an intricate group that has 10 different baddies, all of which work together to keep you from killing anything.

All in all, a fun, interesting, and well tested arc. I spent over a week working on it.

Arc Name: The Once and Future King
Arc ID: 19678
Creator: Test: @Krystaria1 (Live: @Nightling)
Alignment: Heroic
Difficulty: Varies, but clever use of your Allies can make it easier. Mission breakdown:
- Mish 1: Moderate
- Mish 2: Cake. Seriously.
- Mish 3: Hard
- Mish 4: Average - Difficult depending on your Difficulty setting and soloing ability of your AT. On Heroic, this wasn't too bad, on Unyeilding I had difficulty with my Fire/Kin
- Mish 4: Easy. Slightly harder.

Enemies: Crey, Arachnos, Witches (Custom)
Allies: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table

Synopsis: Crey has begun incorporating an unknown Incarnate in their Revenant Hero Project. Synapse sends you to stop this project, fearing what Crey would do with Paragon Incarnates that could go toe to toe with Statesman or Recluse. You discover that they have managed to clone King Arthur, and now that Arthur is back, his old friends and enemies are looking for him as well.

Number of Missions: 5

Length: 30-90 min depending on how fast you solo or what help you have

Disclaimer: To any Arthur buffs out there, I'm not one. If you see something that really grates on your nerves, please let me know!

Arc Name: Temporal Anomalies
Arc ID: 16189
Morality: Heroic
Creator Global Name: @Dyne
Difficulty Level: Medium*
Synopsis: While looking into unusual Clockwork behavior, you uncover a much more serious threat, one that ultimately threatens the entire city.

Cover Image
Arc Name: The Inversion Point
Arc ID: 17153
Morality: Heroic
Creator Global Name: @Dyne
Difficulty Level: Medium*
Synopsis: You have exposed the invasion, now you must find out who is behind it and how to stop it.


Link for Feedback for both arcs


* I'm not a good judge of this, but I've soloed both halves on several different characters @ lowest difficulty. High difficulty levels or large team sizes may or may not make it harder.

My apologies for creating my own thread, didn't see this one before, only that lots of people were making their own threads, so.

[color= orange]Arc Name: Inherent in the System[/color]

Faction: Longbow, Arachnos, Rikti, a smattering of others including custom mobs
Creator Global/Forum Name: @Ultrace / Ultrace7
Difficulty Level: Medium; the final mission ramps up a bit
Synopsis: Purposely omitted so as not to spoil anything
Estimated Time to Play: 1-2+ hours, depending on group size
Feedback: Desired, either on the forums or in-game

Other Notes: Contains 4 missions; this is definitely a "reader" with plenty of text to view if you wish; the final mission contains 2 EBs and an AV (which scale down depending on your team size)
