Overview
This is a shortlist of all story arcs, trials and task/strike forces created by the Homecoming Team over the course of the lifetime of Homecoming: City of Heroes, following the shutdown of the original NCSoft servers. They will be ordered within their category by release date.
Note: As this page is intended as a guide for returning players to find new content on the Homecoming servers, both content developed by Homecoming Team and by SCoRE for use in City of Heroes Resurgence will be mentioned here. However, it will not mention content built by Paragon Studios that remained unreleased on the original Live servers, such as Pandora's Box. To find that content, see Issue 24, Paragon's final update to be added to their Beta servers.

The tasks that Agent Watkins has for you are no small feats, and involve the clean-up of one of the city's most exciting showdowns. Heroes 20 and above should seek him out, and bring plenty of club soda to wash out any stains.

Unfortunately, as is so often the case, his source was kidnapped and now he is in desperate need of some morally dubious help.
Players will get a chance to influence the politics of Paragon City for years to come while checking in on old friends, and making powerful enemies. It's all in a day's work for the free-wheeling entrepreneurial type.

Villains of level 30 and beyond should seek her out in Sharkhead Isle, in the usual place, and relief will wash over you after the discovery that her attachment to bank accounts has disappeared in the face of her mortality, as an added bonus.
