New Players Guide to City of Heroes

[Dauntless69]

This is great stuff, especially since I JUST came back to the game after the original shut down.  Is there a guide for the quest chains or story arcs or whatever they're called (It's been SO LONG)?  Like the early Supradine one for Heroes.

There's this:

I'm coming back after 20 years, so thank you for the guide! You pretty consistently confuse "its" and "it's" in this guide, though. "Its" is possessive. "It's" is a contraction of "it is." You almost always use the contraction when you mean to be using the possessive throughout your article... Similarly, the plural of "hero" is "heroes," not "hero's," as you write.

Been creating help pages for 🦸City of Heroes and City of Villains🦹 on my decades-old personal Web site since at least 2010 (the City of Heroes Enhancement Comparison Guide is at least that old) and created the City of Heroes Homecoming Server New Player Tips Guide a few years back that I give out to new players.😄 Been trying to keep it updated on a . . . somewhat regular basis, and figured if I put it on my site, I'd do it more often than if I put the whole thing out on the forum, where I'd probably forget about it for years or never update it at all after making it. But, hey, that's what happens when you get . . . up there in years!

 

Since many new players also tend to start out on the busiest shard, Excelsior, I also built a utility hub or TP hub kind of base designed with them in mind,  It's a TP hub for new players with zones sorted by hero, villain, hazard, co-op and fast-leveling zones, all with level ranges shown! And, a macro they can use when near a Base Portal is this:  /macroimage archetypeicon_peacebringer SG_TP_RaDiCaL_(Sci-Fi_Theme) enter_base_from_passcode RADICAL-7910

 

If anyone's REALLY bored, there's the🕴️🐺 Flying Werewolf Tour of the base on YouTube, including a glimpse inside one of the hidden rooms. Used text instead of voice in it, however, since I'm not a fan of my own . . .
