'''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. <br>
Influence can be used at stores and contacts to buy [[Inspirations]], [[Enhancements]], at Icon tailors to change [[Costume]]s, 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 [[recipe]]s, [[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.
 
== Notes ==
* Influence is the exact opposite of [[Infamy]] (villain currency)
* Infamy and Influence cannot be traded, even through [[Pocket D]]
* Influence can be converted to [[prestige]] at the [[Super Group Registrar]] at an exorbitant rate.
* Influence is capped at 2 billion. You can earn more, but it won't be recorded and the system will still see it as 2 billion.
* There is a simple strategy for making large amounts of influence if the character already has a nominally large amount of influence. With the introduction of the [[Consignment House]] it may be possible to buy up to ten level 50 Single Orgin enhancements at the Consignment House and sell them to the appropriate Orgin Stores for approximately twice as much as you bought them for.
