Overview
Reconnaissance Officers are NPCs stationed near the guarded entrances of Hazard Zones in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. They offer information to Heroes and Villains regarding the history and hostile spawns of the zones, and suggest safe squad size for street sweeping.
Hero Zone Locations
Reconnaissance Officers are found in the following hero zones:
The Sewer Network (Atlas Park Entrance)
Sewer Network Reconnaissance Officer (Atlas Park Entrance)
You know, you get used to the smell after a while. A while ago, I couldn't stand it for more than ten minutes down here. Now I'm all but immune to the exceptionally, er, strong fumes. But, what can you do? This is Sewers.
I hope you aren't planning on fighting solo because with the size of the badge guys down here, they could squash you flat. No lie. Sure, this is a great place to earn some serious 'awesome points' with your friends and family, but if you're not careful, you could wind up in a sludge-nap of green slime. It's not pretty
Seriously. It could happen. You should see my friend. One last thing, mind the door over there, too, it leads to the Abandoned Sewers and they're not for the weak.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:
RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
*** Approved Use Only ***
History: This underground labyrinth connects to the major cities throughout Paragon. Since it's under the city, it has become a popular place for Villains, especially those of the tentacle variety, to conglomerate.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 2 through 10 (Abandoned Sewers Levels 35 through 40)
Suggested Squad Parameters: 5 to 8-person teams
Highlights:
- This is the hub of the sewers
- Speak to Mairenn MacGregor outside the Atlas Park Sewer entrance for more information about joining a Task Force to battle this high-level threat.

- Note: In-game text doesn't reflect that Hydra are only in the Abandoned Sewer Network and the Vahzilok are in the Sewer Network.
The Sewer Network (Kings Row Entrance)
Sewer Network Reconnaissance Officer (Kings Row Entrance)
Hold your nose, my friend, because you just entered the Sewers. I hope you didn't come alone because you're going to need some serious firepower down here. On the flip side, this is a great place to earn some street cred with your hero buddies. But, again, if you're not careful you could end up face-down in a stream of green sludge.
Seriously, it happened to a friend of mine. It wasn't pretty. One last thing, mind the door over there, too, it leads to the Abandoned Sewers and they're not for the weak.

The Sewer Network (Skyway City Entrance)
Sewer Network Reconnaissance Officer (Skyway City Entrance)
Phewwwww! It's pretty nasty down here. What can you expect, though? You just walked into the Sewers, my friend. I really hope you have some friends to fight alongside you because the baddies down here hang in packs and you're definitely going to need the help. Sure it's a great spot to earn some bragging points with friends and family about your heroic trials, but if you're not paying attention you're going to end up face-down in some green sludge.

The Sewer Network (Boomtown Entrance)
Sewer Network Reconnaissance Officer (Boomtown Entrance)
I hate this stinkin' place. You might want to close your eyes and hold your nose because, like it or not, this is the Sewers. I hope you didn't come alone; this is no place for the weak. Forget street cred. I mean, you can if you want to, but if you try to be a big show-off you could end up face down in some disgusting green sludge.
For real. It happened to me and my 'friends' won't let me live it down. Learn from me, pal. Safety in numbers. I still stink like, ugh, I don't even want to think about it. Oh, and don't use that door over there unless you're a really high Security Level. That leads to the Abandoned Sewers and they're tough.

The Hollows (Atlas Park Entrance)
Hollows Reconnaissance Officer (Atlas Park Entrance)
You have arrived in The Hollows, which is considered a Hazard zone as you can tell by the big SWAT entrance behind you. However, under the constant supervision of the PPD, only certain regions tend to be more dangerous. Don't let that lull you into a false sense of security; you can bet that if you should stray from the pack, that'll be the perfect time for an ambush. Keep alert and come back here if you get in over your head.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:
RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
*** Approved Use Only ***
History: Years ago, the Trolls wanted to carve out more territory but were having problems above-ground so they took their business underground and found the residential community of Eastgate as their location. Armed with explosives, they began their work, not realizing that there was already extensive cave warrens beneath this area of Paragon City. The initial blasts destabilized a large area and collapsed a section of the zone into itself - this event became known as The Hollowing. Soon after, the Outcasts and Circle of Thorns moved in. Over recent years, additional Villain Groups (even some from the Rogue Isles) have made their way into The Hollows.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 5 through 15
Suggested Squad Parameters: 1 to 5-person teams
Highlights:
- It is believed that these cave guardians are connected to the Devouring Earth in some way.
- Talshak the Mystic provides a Task Force to rescue David Wincott's child, who has been taken to the deadly caverns.
- This huge bowl-shaped indentation is littered with large packs of Trolls and Rock Men.

(-240, 0, -3376)[Copy] We're keeping the gate to Galaxy City closed. No one gets in or out until that disaster has been contained. I don't know exactly what's going on there, but from the look of this report, it's not good.
BREAKING NEWS
Meteors Strike Galaxy City
Galaxy City
A shower of meteors has struck Galaxy City. Early reports indicate severe destruction and widespread casualties. Emercency crews are on the scene and have begun rescue and evacuation operations. Reports are surfacing that the meteors contained some sort of hostile, intelligent life. There has been no statement made by Galaxy City officials.
Boomtown
Boomtown Reconnaissance Officer
You are now in what is affectionately called 'Boomtown.' If you haven't noticed, this is a Hazard area, not just because the place is falling down around us, but because the hostiles that have moved in here have gathered in packs. Their numbers have increased, so yours should as well. Mind your step, there are plenty of demolished buildings and debris littering the area.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:
RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
*** Approved Use Only ***
History: Long ago, this area was a bustling urban center called Baumton, full of skyscrapers and massive office complexes. That all changed when the Rikti invaded in the First Rikti War against humanity. On Day 1 of the Rikti War this bustling community was hardest hit and turned into a wasteland. With the economy and housing industry crushed, the residents of Baumton moved to other parts of Paragon City, the area was sealed off to the general populace, and the bad guys moved in.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 11 through 19
Suggested Squad Parameters: 3 to 5-person teams
Highlights:
- And lots of it.

Terra Volta
Terra Volta Reconnaissance Officer
You have entered the area known as Terra Volta. This is an extremely treacherous location for Heroes to patrol so you should have back up. We have been unable to establish a foothold here, so you only have what you bring in. See my report for information on the Task Forces assigned to protecting the Reactor Core.

History: When Oswald Price began construction on the first electrical power plant in Paragon City in 1955, he chose this location. Local legends marked this small rocky outcrop as the intial landing point of the doomed Novus Cartago expedition of 1602. There have been constant rumors that this location is cursed. Since initial construction, Terra Volta has been plagued by problems and constant Villain aggression.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 23 through 29
Suggested Squad Parameters: 5 to 8-person teams

Striga Isle
Striga Isle Reconnaissance Officer
You have arrived in Striga Isle, six miles off the coast Northeast of Eastgate Bay in international waters. This is the chosen location of The Council and something big they have brewing under the volcano. This area is a hazard zone, but your security level seems to check out.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:

Amenities:
Crey's Folly
Crey's Folly Reconnaissance Officer
You have arrived in 'Crey's Folly.' If you haven't noticed, this is considered a Hazard area. Part of the reason is the liquid toxins seeping into the ground and the other part is due to the large groups of hostiles in the area. You may be able to survive in some parts of this location on your own, but for your security, you're better off with some team-mates to help you.

*** Approved Use Only ***
History: 'Venice', as this area used to be called, became active during the early 1900s due to a growth in intense industrialization, which was not only damaging to the environment, but on the workers as well. As the 1950s heralded in a new, more environmentally friendly attitude, the area no longer carried the connotation of dismal working conditions and proved that, towards the 1970s, profit could go hand-in-hand with environmental responsibility.
All that changed with the First Rikti War. The Crey facility was targeted and the resulting explosion not only devasted the Crey labs, but created a strange element that poisoned the area. As citizens and workers moved out, Villains moved in.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 30 through 38
Suggested Squad Parameters: 3 to 5-person teams
Highlights:
- A Freakshow controlled stronghold utilizing debris and materials from the zone.
- The center of the attack on the Crey labs, a huge dark scar in the ground.
- This SWAT entrance was closed down when the Rikti invaded for the second time. All access is controlled via DPO centers manned by The Vanguard.

Eden

You are now in 'Eden', an incredibly ironic moniker considering this place is anything but. It's not for lack of effort on the part of the Devouring Earth, however. This is a face plant waiting to happen if you're not well prepared and surrounded by trusted Heroes. The enemies that you face here are far more difficult and group in much larger packs than you've probably experienced before. It's pretty ironic, since there is nearly nothing idyllic about it..

This is Fort Hades. If you haven't noticed it yet, it's tougher than the rest of Port Oakes so you will probably need reinforcements in this area. Oh, and there's something about this Fort you need to understand. It's no walk in the park here, there are real ghosts haunting this Fort so you best be on your guard at all times.

RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
***CONFIDENTIAL***
History: The pirate Blackbeard had just captured Queen Ann's Revenge and sought a place to test her in battle. He came upon a newly erected French Fort and used his massive firepower on the half-manned structure. Upon storming the beach, the French were outarmed and outmanned by Blackbeard's cutthroats and were soon surrounded. They asked for quarter but his crew had already tasted blood and cut down brutally to the last one. The haunting began soon after.
These ghost are of particular interest to Lord Recluse. He's been studying them, with the help of Ghost Widow, to see if they might be used as an ethereal army. The problem is that the ghosts are bound to the island and the site of their horrible deaths.

Before you is the portal to Dark Astoria, a forsaken place where the dark god Mot threatens our very existence. It is not adviseable to enter this portal unless you have reached the pinnacle of your powers as a villain and have begun on your path as an Incarnate.
If you feel you are ready but are uncertain on how to proceed, look for 'An Arachnos Threat' among your contacts.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:

The Abyss
The Abyss Reconnaissance Officer
This is the Abyss. If you take a look around, you'll be able to see why. Not much is going on here at the dock, but just wait until you head in further.
This area is what we in the Recon profession like to call a 'trial zone.' What this means is that, for you, it's gonna be a trial. I guarantee it.
If you have friends, or even accomplices, you may want to give them a call. In fact, call some thugs down the street while you're at it because The Abyss is no place to wander alone.

RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
*** Approved Use Only ***
History: The Abyss archipelago is a series of islands which comprise the abandoned site of failed genetic and biological experiments. These 'experiments' have been contaminated by the waste, debris, and chemicals associated with human mismanagement of the past. When human presence terminated in this area, the Devouring Earth immigrated here, making these islands their own.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 45 through 50
Suggested Squad Parameters: 5-person to 8-person teams
Highlights:
- A safe area, probably the only one.
- Wire fencing, once electrified, is now broken and inoperable. Inhabited by various Devouring Earth.
- Formerly the 'nerve center' of the Archipelago, this area is nothing more than a crumbling structure of vacant buildings and unused equipment.
- A popular location to strategize before entering the sinkhole.
- The sinkhole is where the monster known as 'Hamidon' appears.

Cooperative Zone Locations
Reconnaissance Officers are found in the following cooperative zones:
Rikti War Zone
Rikti War Zone Reconnaissance Officer
You have arrived in the Rikti War Zone, which is the first area to be considered a 'war zone'. It is aptly titled due to the ongoing hostilities between the Rikti and, well, pretty much everyone else. Vanguard has stepped in and has called upon Heroes and even Villains to fight against this ongoing threat. There's some crazy stuff going on here so if you're faint-hearted, best not leave this compound.
See my report for more information. It should give you an idea what to expect:
RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
*** Approved Use Only ***
History: Formerly known as White Plains, this was once an urban financial and commerce center, but the area was decimated by the downing of a mammoth Rikti space craft. During the protracted battle to destroy the ship, a fort and personnel facilities were constructed. Over the last few years, the Vanguard have moved in, established their underground base, and continue the fight against the Rikti. The Rikti have erected pylons across the zone, which serve as a communication and security device.
Hostiles Strength: Levels 35 through 54
Suggested Squad Parameters: 3 to 8-person teams
Highlights:
- Seek out Lady Grey to form a Task Force in an effort to keep the Rikti threat contained.
- The ship has a shield that protects it via signals from the Pylons.

Dark Astoria
Dark Astoria Reconnaissance Officer
I don't know what malignant force brought you here but you are now in the place known as 'Dark Astoria.' Not far from here, the dark god Mot stirs from his slumber, intent on devouring us all. Do not give up hope though! Both heroes and villains who have reached the pinnacles of their training and have begun to unlock their Incarnate powers have been known to survive for a time on these forsaken streets.
If you have found yourself here, uncertain on how to proceed, look for either Captain Nolan or The Arachnos Threat among your contacts.
