They have said there will rewards for those that stay 'loyal' to their original side but have not said what that reward is.
I can't find a link to where it says this, could anyone help me out?

Also, Vigilantes can do *some* Villain missions, but not all, IIRC. And vice versa.
There seems to be a bit of stuff we haven't been told yet. I guess it's a matter of waiting and seeing.

Ah! Oky!
Rewards,... I like the sound of that!
lol @ ThongSnapper. I'm so jealous I didn't think up that name first!
Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?

Arc ID: 413575
I have a few pressing GR questions, considering the free transfers are ending soon:
Can a hero who goes rogue use the villain market, and trade infamy and items with villains?
More importantly, will any influence a hero has when he goes rogue become infamy?
(And will a rogue hero no longer be able to use the hero market or trade with heroes?)
Apologies to Thong Snapper for tacking my questions on to your thread.

Personally, I just hope that, a hero can have the option of going full redside, so they can access the BM. And vice versa...not just switch sides to do missions on the other side.

Ah, thanks.
I have a bunch of heroes that I'm pretty much done with, and one of them has an epic melee IO that is one of two that I need to finish the set on my favorite brute, who could also really use all the loads of currency that my heroes have no use for.
I will gladly ruin my heroes' reputations and crime-fighting careers -- and bankrupt them in the process -- just to help my little brute get ahead in the (under)world!

A Hero and a Vigilante (falling hero) access Wentworths. A Villain and a Rogue (redeeming villain) access Black Market. Once a Vigilante takes the last step to becoming a Villain, they lose access to Wentworths and begin using Black Market. Once a Rogue takes the last step to becoming a Hero, they lose access to Black Market and begin using Wentworths.
There is no news yet if Praetorians (characters who begin in the alternate dimension of Praetoria) have access to either market, or one of their own.

Vigilantes can do Villain missions by teaming with Villains. It's kind of like they have perma-coop capability. As of heroCon, they wouldn't be able to get red-side contacts, so they wouldn't be able to get missions themselves.|

I don't know if it's written down anywhere, but I specifically remember it being said that they were planning some form of reward for those who stuck with their original side. They either didn't know what those would be in October, or weren't saying, and I've not seen anything stating what would happen since.

For what I remember reading it sounded like Rogue/Vigilante was as far as they could go. I hope they can do the complete role reversal, I'd be ever happier to just have a blaster start out in the Zig, or a Stalker start out in Outbreak. Without having to change sides.

Hero ATs have to start either in Paragon City (as a Hero) or in Praetoria (as a Praetorian, whose loyalty choices will make the character either Hero or Villain by level 20).
Villain ATs have to start either in the Rogue Isles (as a Villain) or in Praetoria.

I can live with it. Not like my I have to have the ability to start any AT on redside, and any AT on blueside.Though, I can see that happening sometime later personally. Probably after GR has been out awhile.

I have a simple question GR and was just wondering this.
So a character in the 'grey' area of being a vigilantly or a rogue can go to
but hero and villain areas correct?
Well what's the benefit of staying a total hero or total villain then?
I can see that being able to go anywhere is a massive plus, so what's stopping
everyone from just staying floating in that gray area?
