Overview
Paragon Points (PP) were introduced with Issue 21/City of Heroes Freedom. They are used to buy items, costumes, archetypes, powersets, and content in the Paragon Market. Paragon Points are purchased with real money, either with credit card or via PayPal.
Additionally, Paragon Points are awarded monthly for keeping a subscription. These points are awarded on the player's billing date. Players with Tier 8 completed get 550pp a month; all other subscribers get 400pp a month.
Purchasing Paragon Points
Paragon Points come in several different "bundles", where buying more points at a time grants a higher bonus number of points.
The first time purchasing Paragon Points, regardless of amount and subscription status, grants one Reward Token. Buying Paragon Points also awards a Reward Token for every 1200pp purchased, including bonus points. The VIP Player stipend does not count toward purchased points.
| Points | Bonus | Total | $US | €EU | £UK | Tokens | PPD* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 400 | 400 | $5.00 | €4,80 | £3.40 | 0** | 80 | |
| 1200 | 120 | 1320 | $15.00 | €14,40 | £10.20 | 1** | 88 |
| 4000 | 600 | 4600 | $50.00 | €48,00 | £34.00 | 3** | 92 |
| 8000 | 1600 | 9600 | $100.00 | €96,00 | £68.00 | 8 | 96 |
*PPD is Points Per "Dollar", the number of points granted per dollar/euro/pound purchase. The higher the points purchase, the more points per "dollar" is given due to the bonus (column two).
**Token credit is cumulative, so points beyond the 1200 per token are "banked" toward the next token. Purchasing the 4000pp package (4600/1200=3.8333~) awards three tokens, with some points left over toward a fourth token with next purchase. Purchasing the 4000pp package twice awards 7 tokens, with some left over again. Since the $100 package grants a total of 9600pp, and that is directly divisible by 1200, it doesn't leave any leftover points toward a new package.
