Port

Overview

Upon exhausting the readily available missions on Mercy Island, villains are next directed to a broker in Port Oakes. To reach it, they catch a ride on the ferry on Mercy Island's southwestern tip. Port Oakes is a much rougher place than Mercy Island, so they should probably be at least threat level 7 before venturing out of the (relative) safety of Mercy.

Upon entering Port Oakes for the first time, each villain is assigned a Broker, either Mikey the Ear or Drea the Hook. Port Oakes is the beginning of the "Broker, Newspaper Missions, Mayhem Mission, Contacts" steps to begin in every new villain zone. Port Oakes's trainer is Arbiter Unger, standing next to the Arena.

Important Locations

Neighborhoods

Arena District, the south-central neighborhood that contains most of the important points in Port Oakes, is the zone a villain enters and leaves Mercy Island and Cap au Diable, as well as the Arena and Hospital, and an entrance to Pocket D. The contacts Angelo Vendetti, Billie Heck, Brick Johnson, and Mr. Bocor are all located here, as are Arbiter Unger the trainer, Arbiter Sawyer the Power Respecification contact, a Fortunata Fateweaver, and a Quartermaster. A Black Market truck is located between the Arena and Pocket D.
Dockside, located in the southeast, contains the Abandoned Labs invention lab, where a villain can craft recipes. Drea the Hook is located here, as is the NPC Canada Joe.
Fort Hades, in the northeast, is home to Port Oakes's Spectral Pirates. Veluta Lunata stands on the neighborhood border with Dockside.
Marconeville, in the middle, has the Arachnos Headquarters in the tallest building in the zone, the Supergroup Registrar, The Radio contact, and a Quartermaster. Shady Cage is located here, on the border with Fort Hades.
Oil Spill stretches down the western edge of town. A Quartermaster is located here.
Villa Montrose to the north, the roughest neighborhood in town, is where The Family calls home, having constructed a heavily-defended mansion complete with turrets.
