== New Issue 11 Sets ==

Now that Issue 11 is in open beta we can begin gathering the data for the new sets, including the Purple/Superior sets.
The CoH forums has much of the info we need here: [http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=9501306&an=0&page=0&gonew=1].

Where can we work on this without releasing it until Issue 11 is live?
:No idea, but I just got Energy Manipulator: Chance to disorient as a pool B drop--[[User:Fleeting Whisper|Fleeting Whisper]] 03:42, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

== Pool A, B, C, etc. ==

Add a description (or link) to what pool A, B, C, etc. mean.  Ideally it would also have estimated drop %.  I presume pool A is just normal monster drops.

If these already exist, they should probably be linked by the references in the descriptions for each icon's meaning near the top of the page.  That's where people will most encounter them as a puzzle that needs to be explained.

:You are correct.  It would be good to add a link.  At present, the recipe drop pools are defined in the [[Recipes]] article.

:In general, there is a ''lot'' of linking that could be done with the IO and recipe articles.  I just don't think we managed to cover all of those links when we first wrote all the IO articles because the system was so huge and there were so many articles to write that we completely lost track just how much stuff content being created at the time.

:Edit:  Now that I look, the main article for [[Recipe Drop Pools]] is actually already linked in the article. --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] 16:35, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

== Rectified Reticle: +Perception ==

Got it at the end of Flashback story arc, during reporting back to contact.
Flashback had two challenge settings (30 minutes, and 1 defeat), both challenges were successfuly met.
Recipe was given right before the challenge badges were awarded.

== Flashback's the end of story arc drops... ==

Does anyone know from which pools the recipies are awarded?

Since I began to keep statistics, i've got the following recipies:

* Commanding Presence: Acc/End - Pool B
* Rectified Reticle: +Increased Perception - Unknown Pool
* Impervious Skin: End/Rech - Pool A
* Cacophony: Conf/Range - Unknown Pool
* Energy Manipulator: Chance to Disorient - Pool B
* Unspeakable Terror: Fear/Range - Unknown Pool

You have to be careful to seperate out the end of mission drops from the defeat last guys drops. Story arcs can award a Pool B for completing the final mission. There are still a few arcs that got missed in the I9 beta change and give a 100% chance of Pool B.
[[User:Catwhoorg|Catwhoorg]] 22:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

It was the end of the story arc, recipe was awarded right before you are unexemplared to your current level, and right before challenge badges were awarded if any, but after statistics window for flashback had been shown.

Has anyone had it drop as a mission reward for them? [[User:Corebreach|Corebreach]] 02:38, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

== PvP sets ==

I have a suggestion meant to better "at a glance" readability. Can the PvP only bonuses be split off into a second table. I mean something like...  - [[User:Baalus Seth|Baalus Seth]] 14:49, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

== Knockback, Slows and Mez ==
I've always considered Knockback to be a form of Mez... It's not a status effect in that it has a duration like the the rest of the mez library, but it's still something that, once it hits you, you are prevented from using your powers the way they normally work. I motion for Knockback to be moved out of the "Other Sets" category and into "Mez Sets."

On the other hand, I ''don't'' consider -Speed to be a form of Mez. It's like -Recharge or -ToHit to me: just a debuff by another name. I also motion that this category be moved out of "Mez Sets" and into "Other Sets." {{unsigned|GuyPerfect|19:57, 1 December 2009 (UTC)}}

:The [[Status Effects]] article and I agree with you.  I also think Taunt sets belong in the same general category as Holds, Stuns, Immobs, etc.  They're all forms of control whether "hard" or "soft".

:I generally think of anything that can be protected against as being a "Mez" effect while anything that can ''only'' be resisted would be "Buff/Debuff".  Hold, Immob, Knockback, Stun, Taunt - those effects are all all-or-nothing and vary only in duration or distance.  You are either held or not held, knocked back or not knocked back, stunned or not stunned, etc.  I'm not aware of any cases where speed or recharge debuffs are applied in all-or-nothing form, which would make those effects a debuff, not a mez.

:Just my two cents. --[[User:Eabrace|Eabrace]] [[File:Healthbar notify phone.png|20px|link=User talk:Eabrace]] 20:25, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

== Reorganize according to Paragon Market categories? ==

Damage Sets: Melee, PBAOE, Pets, Ranged, Recharge Intensive Pets, Sniper, Targeted AoE (this one's the same)<br />
Defense Sets: Resist Damage, Defense<br />
Healing Sets: Accurate Healing, Healing<br />
Mez / Status Sets: Confuse, Fear, Hold, Immobilize, Sleep, Slow, Stun<br />
Buff / Debuff Sets: (Accurate Def Debuff), (Accurate ToHit Debuff), Def Debuff, EndMod, Knockback, Taunt, ToHit Buff, ToHit Debuff<br />
Travel Sets: Fly, Leap, Run, Teleport, (Universal Travel) (this one's the same)

Currently no Accurate Defense Debuff, Accurate ToHit Debuff, or Universal Travel sets are for sale on the Paragon Market, but their categories are obvious. [[User:Rigel Kent|Rigel Kent]] 14:58, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

== Updates for Homecoming ==

Page was updated to reflect the most accurate data possible currently on Homecoming. Source data was enhancement set data as viewed within the auction house via the 'Attuned Enhancements' category. Screenshots of each set were taken and compared to the data on the page. Specifically, the following values were checked/updated:

*Accuracy and ordering for each enhancement set component (i.e. options 1-6)
*Level range for each enhancement
*Values and magnitude (bonus color) for the set bonuses for each enhancement

All set bonus names were standardized throughout the entire page.

Missing sets (i.e. those added near game shutdown in 2012 and/or during Homecoming) were added, including all Sentinel Archetype Origin enhancements. Missing or erroneous icons were added or updated as necessary.

Missing sets of the uncommon and rare varieties were assigned a drop type of Uncommon for uncommon sets, and Pool A Rare for rare sets. At the time of this update it was not readily possible to determine the drop types for the missing sets.

Individual enhancement set pages were not updated as a part of this update.

Note that some bonus values may not match exactly with the data as seen in-game. The in-game values appear to be inconsistently rounded, and the values that appear on this page are numerically correct and un-rounded.

:Coo, that must have been a hell of a job. [[User:Thunderforce|Thunderforce]] ([[User talk:Thunderforce|talk]]) 06:59, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

:Thanks very much [[User:AboveTheChemist|AboveTheChemist]], amazing job! [[User:Aberrant|Aberrant]] ([[User talk:Aberrant|talk]]) 08:13, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

== Enhancement set rarity is important, recipe drop pools not so much ==

Re:[[User:Billymailman]] On Homecoming, nobody farms recipe drop pools anymore, while uncommon/rare enhancement set conversion is common. As I wrote in the article, sets have rarity for enhancement converter purposes. As an example, Debilitative Action: Accuracy/Recharge being in a rare set and converting to other rare sets is useful information on Homecoming. Which drop pool to farm for the recipe is not useful.

The Monobook thing can be fixed easily. [[User:Kai Moon|Kai Moon]] ([[User talk:Kai Moon|talk]]) 14:59, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
