Question: Epic Power Pool


Camper

 

Posted

I was told last night by two people that at level 41 Epic Power Pool unlocks... Here I am stumped and never heard of such a thing. They say Heroes get that so my Villain should.

I go to train up to level 41 and I see nothing about some Epic Power Pool.

Can someone inform me on this? I am unlearned in such a topic and I need to be schooled on this.

edit: ok seems this site isn't blocked from my work PC. http://cityofheroes.wikia.com/wiki/Patron_Power_Pools

For those wondering the same... there is the info.

On the villain side, you need to do one of the so-called "Patron Arcs" to unlock the epic power pools. If you talk to Arbiter Rein, who is standing outside the main Arachnos building in Grandville, he provides information about the patron arcs and the epic powers in his little mini-arc.

The Patron arcs are faily cool content, although they can be a bit overwhelming depending on your character.

Couple notes:
#1 - Go to www.paragonwiki.com now. You have the old wiki link there, and it's quite outdated.

#2 - Since the NDA for Issue 18 is off, it's worth mentioning that villains get epic pools now, too. They're pretty much clones of the hero pools, but unlock at 41 without doing a patron arc. Heroes who fall likewise can unlock Patron pools by doing those arcs.

Thank you very much for the information. I will look at that from home tonight and get working on it.

Do you have to be a Rogue/Villain to get PPPs, or can you get them as a Vigilante as well?

Have to be a Rogue/Villain. Vigilantes can go redside, but can't do any arcs there, hence, they can't unlock PPPs.

After you unlock it though, do you still have completely free access to them even after going back to hero side? I know you won't lose them if you have them, but what if you re-train?

Once unlocked, they remain unlocked. You will have access even if you respec.


The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.
