Just when you thought the customization in City of Heroes Influence could not get any more expansive. Paragon Studios is proud to announce Issue 16: Power Spectrum which contains one of our players most highly requested features-the ability to color customize powers! With the new Powers Customization system you can choose from a virtual rainbow of colors in order to change the appearance of your power effects about COH Influence.

But that is not all Issue 16 has to offer! This content update will also continue our Power set Proliferation as well as adding Enhanced Difficulty Options about COH Influence. That foolish woman has provided incredibly valuable materials and manpower to get Architect off the ground. I can not deny that I had personal motivations in creating the core systems behind the Architect experience. I will not bore you with all the details, just some of them. Visit the Official Issue 16: Power Spectrum Overview Page for all the details. Then get ready to see what happens when pigments fly about COH Influence! Stalwart heroes and dastardly villains have always been a staple in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. Power sets, archetypes, and features are often exemplified and defined in City of Heroes by our signature characters about COH Influence.

The time has come to add two more to the ranks. From the upcoming Going Rogue expansion, we are happy to introduce Maelstrom and Desdemona who walk the very thin line between good and evil. Go here to read their stories. Then, make sure to read Senior Lead Designer Matt "Positron" Miller is Developer Diary, where he talks about the process involved in bringing two new City of Heroes signature characters to life.
