Game Update 87

New Resurgence Mega Capsule!

The new Resurgence Mega Capsule is here! These will drop from random enemies you’ve defeated from now until October 9th, and will cost 7 stabilizers to open. Note that you’ll only have 14 days in which to open each Resurgence Mega Capsule you collect before they expire.

Each Resurgence Mega Capsule randomly contains 1 of 17 brand-new Powerset-inspired Materials, as well as the following 9 unlocked Time Capsules:

  • Kryptonian Time Capsule

  • Assassin Time Capsule

  • Paradox Time Capsule

  • Notorious Time Capsule

  • Gotham Time Capsule

  • Arcane Time Capsule

  • Time Torn Capsule

  • Team-Up Time Capsule

  • Qwardian Time Capsule

There have also been a few additional changes to the Time Capsules contained within this newest Resurgence Mega Capsule:

  • All older Time Capsules have been updated to the newer reward structure of Kryptonian Time Capsules. So when each time capsule is opened, you get to choose your reward!

  • All Enhanced style recipes have been removed from all Emblems and Gear Pieces. Instead, each of the Gear Pieces and Emblems now have Enhanced versions that may drop directly from their respective Time Capsules.

  • All gear in the Resurgence Mega Capsule has had their Maximum Item Level increased to 202.

  • Crafting Materials have been removed from all older Capsules.

  • Exo-Material has been added to the extra capsule rewards.

Second Chance Vendor

Booster Gold has set up shop in both the Watchtower and Hall of Doom with a Second Chance Vendor! Look for him next to the “Rewards from Time and Space” Vendor in either location for a chance to purchase Gear, Emblems, and Collection Rewards from the original Time Capsule and Amazonian Time Capsule.


Tactical Mod Boxes

  • The process of getting Tactical Mods has been streamlined.

  • New Tactical Mod boxes are now available in the Base dispenser.

  • Each box offers you a choice of the existing mods based your power set.

  • Available boxes change based on how far you’ve upgraded Tactical Mods in your Mainframe.

Scaling Gear Boxes

  • New Scaling Gear boxes will randomly drop for players in Tier 1 through Tier 7 instances if they are within CR relevancy for that instance.

  • Different sets of Scaling Gear can potentially drop within the same instance, but will always only drop a set within CR relevancy of your character.

Scaling XP for Leveling Characters

  • You will now be awarded XP for completing the daily quests in Titan’s Tower Event Content.

  • XP awarded is based off of the content difficulty and your current character level.

  • Completing Event Content in future Episodes will likewise award XP.

Generator Mod Descriptions

  • Generator mods with CR or Episode requirements have had their Descriptions updated.

Pets

Fall Seasonal 2018

The Witching Hour Returns with new Base Items, Feats, and Styles!

All hell has broken loose in the streets of Gotham City and inside The Midnight Masquerade Nightclub! Go to the East End safehouse in Gotham City and speak to the Phantom Stranger (Heroes) or The Tap Room in Burnley and speak to Tala (Villains) to receive further instructions. To queue for “The Midnight Masquerade,” go into your On Duty UI and look under the Events Tab. There are also new feats and new collections to be found for those brave enough! And for the eagle-eyed, be on the lookout around Gotham for Batwoman – there may just be a bonus feat in it for you!

New Feats

  • Relinquished Relics of the Cursed
  • Limbo Rock Around The Limbo Block
  • Let's Not Lose Our Heads
  • Thirteen Days of Darkness

Each day of the event, also look for “The Witching Hour” in your Mission Journal to complete and earn Spooky Bites! Shop Skeets’ Boo-tique for the latest in scare-wear, tricks, treats, and creepy items for your Base. You’ll even find a few extra special surprises, like the new Swarming Bats Aura to strike fear into the hearts of your enemies, and Dog Boo, the Boo Family Pet who is ready to haunt your Base! Level Requirement: 10

Known Issues:

  • Halloween Decorations in Gotham City remain absent until the Witch Boy finds the missing key to the storage unit, but The Witching Hour event is entirely active.
  • Bonnet (head style) removes facial hair on male characters (unintended). We want you guys out there to wear bonnets and still look manly with your beards.
  • Scaling Gear currently lists socket affinity bonuses (which don't exist anymore) on the item tooltip.
  • Intermittently, players may be unable to access items or consoles in their bases. (If you get stuck in this state, you can create a new base without permissions granted to anyone but you, for a short-term workaround.)
