Possible typo?

Has anyone here heard of Genetic Alteration Enhancements or Gadget Enhancements? My current contact, Merisel Valenzuela, made reference to these being the types of enhancements being carried by the contacts she was introducing me to.

They're just fancy names for mutation and tech enhancements.

Yet another area of the game sorely in need of revamping.


"You don't lose levels. You don't have equipment to wear out, repair, or lose, or that anyone can steal from you. About the only thing lighter than debt they could do is have an NPC walk by, point and laugh before you can go to the hospital or base." -Memphis_Bill

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Genetic Alteration Enhancements are Mutation/Science Dual origin.
Gadget Enhancements are Natural/Technology Dual origin.

They are listed by these names on the official City of Heroes website Origins page too.

Yep. Glad to see someone who knows who it is.

The individual enhancements' names follow similar conventions when you shop for them in stores. A Genome Alteration Reflex Boost, for instance, is an Accuracy Mutation/Science DO, while its Technology/Natural equivalent is an Illumination Grenade. All the T/N DOs are some kind of widget or another ("Oxygen Device", for instance, is a T/N endurance reduction), while the M/S ones are all some sort of Genome Alteration, DNA Resequencing, or Molecular Bonding.

It's basically just flavor text. You'll see a similar sort of thing in SOs (the Science ones are all based on being subjected to some element or radiation, the Tech ones are all some kind of cyborg component, etc.) as well.

IT'S CRIMEFIGHTING TIME! And no, to my knowledge, that's not a typo.
