Overview

Influence is the currency of City of Heroes, and is given to a character for completing missions, defeating villains, selling Enhancements, etc. It's name comes from the fact that your influence on the citizens of Paragon City makes you more popular, earning you Influence points.
Influence can be used at stores and contacts to buy Inspirations, Enhancements, at Icon tailors to change Costumes, and can be traded, although only to other Heroes. It is also used at the Consignment House to purchase the above items as well as recipes, Salvage (both base and invention types) and Invention Origin enhancements. It also is required for the invention system at an invention workbench for purchase of "basic" recipes and spent in the invention process of turning salvage and recipes in to Invention Origin enhancements, Temporary Powers and invented costume pieces.
