Signature Story Arc
Overview
Signature Story Arcs (SSA) are monthly arcs that allow players to make a difference in the City of Heroes universe.
Story Arcs
Rewards
The reward for completing each Episode of a Signature Story Arc is one of the following:
- One Alignment Merit.
- 4 times the regular Merit Rewards
- One Astral Merit
- Ten Incarnate Threads
Each reward can be chosen once every seven days, regardless of which Episode is being played – all Episodes use the same reward timer per reward choice, meaning four reward timers. However, each Episode also grants one reward choice for free the first time it is ever played, which is outside the reward timer.
NOTE: There is no location or status window that keeps track of the reward timer; if a character runs a Signature Story Arc within the reward timer, they cannot choose any reward that has been obtained in the last seven days. However, leaving the reward choice window open without making a decision until the reward timer expires allows a character to choose their preferred reward again.
