'''Type:'''          Archetype-Specific (Blasters)
Defiance is a feature that was introduced upon the release of Issue 5 and is exclusively for blasters.
'''Effects:'''        Special: Self, +Damage, +Accuracy


When a blaster’s health drops, they will begin to see an increase in his or her damage output. It is a small increase at first, but the lower the blaster's health gets, the bigger the damage increase will become. An icon for defiance will appear under the experience bar once a blaster enters a defiant stance.
The chart below demonstrates just how much of a bonus to base damage a player will see when his or her health is low:
Health Percentage Bonus to Base Damage <br>
70% health +4% damage bonus <br>
50% health +18% damage bonus <br>
40% health +35% damage bonus <br>
30% health +70% damage bonus <br>
20% health +140% damage bonus <br>
10% health +280% damage bonus <br>
1% health +500% damage bonus (maximum allowed damage buff for blasters) <br>
The lower a blaster's health gets, the more defiant they becomes. The defiance feature allows blasters some rather exciting strategy abilities. If you are teamed with a Empath Defender or Controller and would like to stay in defiance mode, group communication is key.

Overview

Inherent powers are permanent powers that a hero or villain automatically has without having to select them during training. There are inherent powers that are archetype specific, origin specific, and powers that all heroes have.

Origin Specific Powers

Every hero receives a minor power that is dependent upon their origin. For more information, see Origin Powers.

Archetype-Specific Powers

The following are inherent powers are specific to the archetypes available in City of Heroes and City of Villains.

Inherent BlasterDesperation.png Assassination

A stalker does his best work whem attacking from ambush. When properly 'Hidden', a Stalker can pull of Critical hits with his attacks, and even land a massive 'Assassins Strike' with an Assassins power. Additionally, the Stalker has a chance to land a Critical hit with most of his attack powers when attacking Held or Slept foes.

Type Archetype-Specific (Stalker)
Effects Always criticals from hide
20% critical on held or slept opponents

InherentPeacebringer CombatFlight.png Combat Flight

For hovering and aerial combat. This power is much slower than Energy Flight, but provides some Defense, offers good air control, costs little Endurance, and has none of the penalties associated with Energy Flight. Switch to this mode when fighting other flying foes.

Type Archetype-Specific (Peacebringer)
Effects Self: Fly, + Defense

Inherent BlasterDesperation.png Containment

Controllers are the masters at locking down and controlling their opponents. Few can escape their will. Controllers do extra damage to any target that is already Held, Immobilized, Slept, or Disoriented.

Type Archetype-Specific (Controller)
Effects Self: Critical Damage (Special)

InherentPeacebringer InterSpacialLink.png Cosmic Balance

Kheldians naturally thrive off the energy and essence of their teammates. Peacebringers' metamorphic nature allows them to bring balance to their team. Your Damage will increase for each nearby Tanker or Defender teammate. Your Damage Resistance will increase for each nearby Scrapper or Blaster teammate. Finally each nearby Controller teammate will grant you limited Protection from Control effects. You cannot put Enhacements in this power.

Type Archetype-Specific (Peacebringer)
Effects Auto: Special

Inherent BlasterDesperation.png Critical Hit

The Scrapper is a fierce melee combatant. In hand to hand, no other hero can compare. All Scrapper melee attacks have a chance to land a Critical Hit for up to Double Damage. The higher the rank of the target, the greater the chance for a successful Critical Hit.

{{PowerBlock Other|Header=Type|Text=Archetype-Specific (Scrapper)}
Effects Critical Damage

InherentPeacebringer InterSpacialLink.png Dark Sustenance

Kheldians naturally thrive off the energy and essence of their teammates. Warshades' absorbing nature allows them to draw on the power of their teammates' power to increase their own. Your Damage Resistance will increase for each nearby Tanker or Defender teammate. Your Damage will increase for each nearby Scrapper or Blaster teammate. Finally each nearby Controller teammate will grant you limited Protection from Control effects. You cannot put Enhacements in this power.

Type Archetype-Specific (Warshade)
Effects Auto: Special

Inherent BlasterDesperation.png Defiance

As a Blaster loses health, he begins to unleash his true power in a last ditch display of Defiance. The less health he has, the more damage he deals, and the more accurate his attacks become.

Defiance is a feature that was introduced upon the release of Issue 5 and is exclusively for blasters.

When a blaster’s health drops, they will begin to see an increase in his or her damage output. It is a small increase at first, but the lower the blaster's health gets, the bigger the damage increase will become. An icon for defiance will appear under the experience bar once a blaster enters a defiant stance.

The chart below demonstrates just how much of a bonus to base damage a player will see when his or her health is low:

Health Percentage Bonus to Base Damage
70% health +4% damage bonus
50% health +18% damage bonus
40% health +35% damage bonus
30% health +70% damage bonus
20% health +140% damage bonus
10% health +280% damage bonus
1% health +500% damage bonus (maximum allowed damage buff for blasters)

The lower a blaster's health gets, the more defiant they becomes. The defiance feature allows blasters some rather exciting strategy abilities. If you are teamed with a Empath Defender or Controller and would like to stay in defiance mode, group communication is key.

Type Archetype-Specific (Blaster)

Additionally, you will fully recharge your Endurance and increase the damage to all your attacks. Recharge: very long.
