Villain Accolade Powers
Overview
Accolade Powers are permanent powers that you receive from some of the Accolade Badges that a player collects. These powers are generally auto or click powers that increase various overall attributes like endurance, health, accuracy. Recently, changes were made so that malefactoring down to a lower level would retain Accolade powers, allowing a Villain to use Accolade powers (if obtained) right down to level 1. This includes auto-malefactoring on Strike Forces, PvP Zones, and Flashback.
