The City of Heroes Super Booster IV: Martial Arts is out!

Get ready to channel your chi and embrace your inner shinobi! City of Heroes® Super Booster IV: Martial Arts is now available for $9.99 on the NCsoft® store.

Not only does Super Booster IV: Martial Arts offer you a stealthy new costume set, brazen emotes, and ninja-inspired costume change techniques, but you'll gain access to the exclusive Ninja Run travel power so you can dash through the city with the agility of a ninja! Use Ninja Run to strike fear in the hearts of your enemies as you increase your run speed and leaping abilities. What's the best part? It doesn't use one of your power selections!

This purchase enables these features for all characters on your game account from level 1, but the costume change emotes do require that you unlock at least one additional costume slot. This can be accomplished by completing costume slot missions at levels 20, 30, and 40; and by using Halloween Event salvage (which can also be bought, sold or traded via the in-game Consignment Houses).

Martial Arts themed costume set:

The Martial Arts themed male, female and huge costume parts include robes, shoulders, legs, gloves, footwear, mask, belt and head pieces, as well as new hair styles, chest emblems, and weapons. Male and huge characters also have the option to select the top knot hair style, while females will have the option for braided buns!

Character Emotes:

• /em bringit
• /em pushup

• Smokebomb
• Ninja Leap

• By default characters only have one costume slot, and must unlock additional costume slots through activities in the game. This can be accomplished by completing costume slot missions at levels 20, 30, and 40; and by using Halloween Event salvage (which can also be bought, sold or traded via the in-game Consignment Houses).

First...

Any screenshots?

Wow, that kinda came out of nowhere.

... That didn't stop me from purchasing it already, though. >_>

Edit:
Here's the "box art" on the NCSoft store site:

Question on the Ninja Run.

Is it a bigger run/jump buff than sprint?

Or is it just an alternate animation set like the prestige sprints?

I've watched the video display...and it DOES look rather cool, I'm just not sure of it's actual effects.

Just snapped it up right now woo to the hoo!

>.> mmmmm, ninja.....*buys*

Can we get a list of pieces added like usual so we know where to look?

Ninja Run is... the best booster pack power EVAH! Thanks devs, awesome work all around.

If anyone could give the stats on ninja run I would be most grateful! (end usage, speed increase, etc)

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

This looks fantastic! Can't wait to get home and try it!!

Thanks Devs!

I already bought it. Logged on, saw the announcement. I can't even play until about 10 tonight, and it's 11:38am here.

I can say right now, that on my lvl 1 stalker, the ninja run power was greyed out. Thought all the features were supposed to be available at lvl 1 on all toons on the account?

Edit: Leveled up to lvl 2, and still greyed out.

Per the store ad, ninja run is active at Level 4

First walk, now this!?!?!? *swoooooon*

*Deleted for not needing to totally pound the point into the ground.*

I deleted this post (which you can read where people quoted me) because I have found out that you cannot have CJ toggled while Ninja Run is toggled.

Looking forward to checking this out when I get home. Does the ninja run make you do the lean forward run with arms behind you anime style run?

NINJA RUN IS AAWESOME, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU JUMP!

*puts down loud speaker*

Sorry, but yes, this is effin GREAT!

STATS: +695% jump height +136% jump speed, +140% run speed. You also flip at the peak of the jump.

Screenshots please? This will determine whether or not I actually buy this.

Also, payday cannot get here fast enough. *drools*
