Suppression

This article or section contains information that no longer applies to the current version of City of Heroes: Rebirth. The content provided may refer to City of Heroes Freedom.
It is provided for historical purposes.

In its original incarnation, this proc would trigger extremely frequently and was basically a constant recharge buff on the character, provided that he had slotted it in a fast-recharging, Area of Effect power, like Footstomp. The power was altered without a patch note sometime in early 2009, adding suppression (red bits in this image), requiring careful timing to get the most use out of it. Too-frequent use causes frequent suppression, leaving very small windows of the buff being in effect (green bits).

Suppression effects in this image:

  • in gray: time scale
  • in green: active period (buff is in effect)
  • in red: cooldown period (suppression)
  • in yellow: periods where power is active/gets triggered but buff is not in effect (is suppressed).

The proc was changed again to its current incarnation sometime in mid to late 2009. There was no patch note to accompany this change, and was not publicly discovered until September 9, 2009.
