Best City of Heroes Guide

 

The City of Heroes Guide is an advanced reference that focuses on proven builds, detailed leveling walk-throughs and rewarding ways to gather influence. Make yourself familiar with the little tricks and hints applied by CoH veterans to level faster and defeat stronger enemies:
Highlights of the City of Heroes Guide:

* Secret leveling locations from 1 to 50
* How to make more influence than you could ever spend
* Character creation guide for new and advanced players
* The hidden mechanics of the combat system
* Efficient tactics against every type of villain
* Powersets in detail
* Cutting-edge soloing strategies
* How to play a grouped character. Flawless.

City of Heroes Leveling: Our City of Heroes Strategy Guide provides you with a thorough quick leveling guide up to level 50 with all locations you have to visit, all missions that have to be accomplished and the character changing measures that have to be taken along the way. In addition you are furnished with information about every individual zone and strategies enabling you to take down even the nastiest villain.

City of Heroes Influence: Influence is your currency while wandering around on the world of City of Heroes and it's not that easy to come by. The Influence section in our CoH Strategy Guide does not only show you some effective ways of earning Influence, it also gives you tips on Influence management showing you the right times to purchase Enhancements and giving you recommendations on what to consider when doing so.

CoH Characters: The CoH Strategy Guide includes a character creation section with an overview of each archetype's abilities and uses for group and solo playing, thus making it easy for you to choose a character build that suits your playing style from the beginning.

City of Heroes Villains: The author supplies you with a list of all different types of foes that you will encounter throughout the game, their individual powers and strategies on how to deal with them. You'll also learn to divide your enemies into different categories and recognize at a glance how easy they will be to defeat for your individual character.

City of Heroes Combat: The City of Heroes Guide's combat section gives you a broad overview on the way the 'Brawl Index' works, the different damage types you can cause, such as Smashing, Fire, Energy, Toxic up to even Psionic damage, divides them into damage styles such as melee or AoE and shows you the different defence types. Ultimately our CoH Strategy Guide includes a further section with the different types of status attacks, what they do and gives recommendations on which to choose when building your character. Our up-to-date CoH Strategy guide also includes a thorough overview about every attack any archetype can dish out with stats for endurance cost, activation time, range, damage etc. on 30 pages for each archetype!

CoH Powersets: Powersets play a vital role in City of Heroes as they define the attacks you can perform as well as their strength. Furthermore they usually have secondary effects you can stack with further powers such as defensive powers to make your defence more effective, which can be the difference between life and death, e.g. when soloing with a Blaster. Additionally this section gives you an overview about every individual pool power, such as the traveling abilities, in all of their development stages plus stats.

Solo vs. group playing: Like in many current MMORPGs, grouping is vital for certain missions where you have to disarm two bombs simultaneously or conquer elite bosses that regain health faster then you can dish out hits points. So you will find a section about planning your solo build and which character to choose for it as well as a section on how to set up the ideal group for team play, thus satisfying both, the soloing superhero and the more sociable team heroes. Furthermore you are furnished with detailed, proven and commented solo build recommendations, power leveling hints, an overview of all different types of missions and a dedicated accolade and badge acquisition section.

Free updates: All future updates of this guide are of course included in the purchase price. When an update is published, you will receive a notification. Just log into your account and download the update for free!

City Of Heroes Official News

EDEN STUDIOS, NCSOFT AND CRYPTIC STUDIOS
POWER UP THE CITY OF HEROES ROLEPLAYING GAME
ALBANY, New York, March 14, 2005 -

Eden Studios announces today an agreement with Cryptic Studios%u2122 and NCsoft® Corporation for the design and production of the City of Heroes® table-top roleplaying game (RPG), based on the wildly popular comic book inspired massively multiplayer online roleplaying computer game by the
same name.
City of Heroes computer game released last year to critical acclaim
and continues to garner awards for its groundbreaking innovation. The highly anticipated player-versus-player sequel, City of Villains%u2122 is due for release later this year.

"We are very excited about getting the opportunity to produce this super-powered game," George Vasilakos, President of Eden Studios, announced. "We worked with Jack Emmert, City of Heroes lead designer, on our first roleplaying game, Conspiracy X. His imagination and storytelling have always been tremendous. He and his City of Heroes team have created a rocking good game that has been chewing up most of our free time for over a year now. We plan to translate that experience to the table-top while adding the richness of face-to-face roleplaying."

"I started my game production career in paper-and-pencil roleplaying," added Emmert. "It's a great medium for storytelling and a boat load of fun. I've worked with the guys at Eden Studios in the past, and they've only gotten better since then with quality licensed games like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Army of Darkness.
Their games are great and their production values are second to none. This is a wonderful addition to the City of Heroes franchise."

The City of Heroes roleplaying table-top game will use a special version of CJ Carella's Unisystem, Eden's inhouse roleplaying game rules, that captures the highlights of the online experience yet remains compatible with other Unisystem games. Players take the role of super-powered heroes with a full array of power choices. They take the fight to numerous villains, including Circle of Thorns mages, Council thugs, Clockwork robots, Vahzilok zombies, and others popularized in the online game.

The Registration Manual core book will be authored by Eden insider M. Alexander Jurkat, editor of the majority of Eden's Unisystem game books, designer of the Army of Darkness card game, and author of GURPS Conspiracy X. The core book will be followed by the Paragon City source book, the Monitor's Support Pack, the Super-powered Operative's Dossier and other supplements.

More information is coming soon to www.cohrpg.com.
Eden Studios makes cool games. Their latest offering, the Army of Darkness non-collectible card game sold through the first print run in four months. Their licensed roleplaying games, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, received delighted gamers when released in 2002 and 2003, and continue to be strong sellers. All Flesh Must Be Eaten, the zombie survivor horror roleplaying game shambles across roleplayers' tables world-wide. Eden also produces CJ Carella's WitchCraft, the roleplaying game of dark secrets and magic, Conspiracy X, the roleplaying game of aliens and government cover-ups, Terra Primate, the roleplaying game of intelligent apes, and Armageddon, the roleplaying game of war and the end of days.
On the lighter side, Eden Studios offers HACK!, a humorous card game based on the Knights of the Dinner TableTM comic book by Kenzer and Company, and Abduction, the fast and furious card game of alien abduction. Check out all the Eden Studios products at Eden Studios
