NCSoft and Paragon Studios have announced that the City of Heroes Issue 19: Strike Pack is now live on all servers. Issue 19 brings two major new features to players: the Weekly Strike Target, and the Rare and Very Rare Alpha Slot Abilities.
Every Tuesday, we will announce a new Task Force and Strike Force, or a co-op Task Force, as the weekly Strike Target. Completing the weekly Strike Target will reward a one-time gift of double merits and a bonus to XP. While these bonuses are only rewarded once-a-week, completing the weekly Strike Target multiple times will earn progress towards three new badges for helping other teams.
