On Homecoming, they are converted by the [[Reward Merit Vendor]] to and from stacks of 50 [[Reward Merit]]s. Their sole use is to make it easier to transfer Reward Merits between chararacters. The two types are interchangeable. They are [[Account Bound]].
There are three ways to obtain alignment merits:
* Complete [[Morality Mission]]s as a hero or villain
** Except for the first time, which awards 50 [[Reward Merit]]s instead
* Purchase at a rate of 50 [[Reward Merit]]s and 20 million [[Inf]] for each Alignment Merit (once per day)
* By completing a Signature Story Arc (once a week)
 
Alignment Merits can only be earned and possessed while a character maintains their respective alignments (Hero for Hero Alignment Merits, Villain for Villain Alignment Merits). Changing alignments will forfeit all unspent Alignment Merits.
 
== Spending Merits ==
Alignment Merits can be spent at Alignment Vendors to purchase most [[Recipe]]s, including [[:Category:Very_Rare_Recipe_Drops|Purple Recipe]]s and [[:Category:PvP_Sets|PvP Recipes]]. The Alignment Vendor for heroes is the storage box next to [[B.O.T.L.E.R.]] in [[Fort Trident]]. The Alignment Vendor for villains is the trash next to [[Trashcan]] in [[The Crucible]]. B.O.T.L.E.R. and Trashcan are also the contacts for converting Reward Merits and [[Inf]] to Alignment Merits. Once a purchase with Alignment Merits is made, there is a 20 hour timer before another puchase can be made.
 
Availability is based on the cost of the recipe from a [[Merit Vendor]] in [[Reward Merit]]s.
* Items that cost less than 100 Reward Merits are not available for purchase.
* Items that cost 100-199 Reward Merits cost 1 Alignment Merit.
* Items that cost 200-299 Reward Merits cost 2 Alignment Merits.
* Items that cost 300 or more Reward Merits do not exist, but would presumably follow the same pattern.
* Items that cannot be purchased with Reward Merits have a special pricing scheme (purples, PVP IOs, Respecs, costume parts, etc).
 
Because most uncommon recipes cost less than 100 Reward Merits, they aren't available for purchase from Alignment Vendors.
