From I21 Patch Notes

  • Through a series of missions, players are taught the higher-level features of our game in a very informal and easygoing series of storyarcs.
  • Players are introduced to a contact who has heard things about their adventures and is considering inviting them to join their elite group of super-powereds
  • These arcs are OPTIONAL and can be done at any time, though it's recommended to start at the levels listed below for an optimal training experience
  • These missions are intended for training of Heroes and Villains; there is not a Praetorian version of these ongoing training missions
  • The intent of these missions are to teach through fun, not to feel like the 4th wall has been broken
  • Heroes report to Twinshot who has teamed up with a ragtag collection of heroes:
    • Twinshot - Twinshot is a trained commando with a friendly demeanor and a mysterious past
    • Grym - Grym is a guardian from another realm; he is one of the grims that has been sent to watch over Paragon City
    • Proton - The last survivor of a future version of Earth, Proton has traveled to our time in an attempt to prevent the catastrophe that consumed his world
    • Dillo - Part of the Galactic Refugees, Dillo has been sent to Earth to warn them of the threat of the Shivans
    • Flambeaux - Sassy li'l thing, that Flambeaux
  • Villains receive a message from Dr. Graves about an opportunity to test their strength against a rogues' gallery of rough characters:
    • Dr. Graves- A scientist who found a way to stop cellular death, Graves is a rather nice guy who needs to chop apart people to replace his limbs, which become damaged due to an illness
    • Crosscut - A serial killer who likes using blades. On anyone or anything. Anytime. Anywhere.
    • Dollface - A coy assassin with a penchant for drama.
    • Omnicore - A woman obsessed with creating the ultimate weapon, this tech-geek has given up her humanity to ensure her goal becomes realized
    • Zephyr - A nebulous being composed of smoke and cloud, Zephyr is a manifestation of the wind itself.
  • Players will learn the following throughout Level Ranges 5 - 19:
    • Contact introduction
    • Redirects
    • Cell-phone contacts
    • Consistent use of trainers
    • Using trams (aka Monorail / Ferry)
    • Notoriety settings
    • Kidnap and kill boss missions
    • Pet combat
    • Auction houses
    • Where to find clues that progress a mission
    • Ambush combat behavior
    • Mission maps
    • Dialogue trees
    • Supergroups
    • Lore characters
    • Enhancements
