Welcome to 2012
The Paragon Wiki would like to wish all our readers a fantastic 2012 in game and out. Special thanks to the legion of contributors who helped document the amazing new content we saw throughout 2011.
Looking forward, we know that this is the year Statesman dies. We also know that Staff Fighting may arrive soon, for Tankers, Scrappers, Brutes and Stalkers. Stalkers receive a number of improvements aimed at ensuring they remain competitive as top-end damage dealers, and to help with their early attack chain. The game world changes as Dark Astoria becomes a high level co-op trial zone, with Incarnate story arc, repeatable mission content, and level 50 to 54 NPC enemies from several villain groups.
To read more on these changes, see Arbiter Hawk's post in the official forums
Featured at the Paragon Market
- New! Use the New Year's Pack to add sizzle to your celebration with the fireworks aura, a confetti costume change emote, and three emotes that allow your characters to shoot fireworks! Available until January 31. Cost is 160 Paragon Points
Sale items:
- 50% off Temporary Powers that let you boost Prestige, XP or INF for one hour.
- 25% off Super Tailor access.
- 50% off Character Respec Tokens tokens and Enhancement Unslotters.
Sale ends on Monday 02 January. For details see the official announcement.
Player Base Spotlight: Zero Strykers' Temporal Vault
Built inside a series of caverns shielded below miles of rock, the Temporal Vault is where the Zero Strykers launch their missions against Rularuu, Praetoria, and any groups that would seek to disrupt neighboring dimensions, or the timestream. The Zero Strykers graciously opened their base to the Paragon Community Team, and gave us an inside look at this high-tech, player-created base.
Read the official announcement to see all the pics of this amazing work of player creativity.
