Overview

Enhancements are permanent boosts to powers. There are three main types of enhancements: Training enhancements, Dual-Origin enhancements, and Single-Origin enhancements. Training enhancements are usable by any characters. Dual-Origin and Single-Origin enhancements are only usable by characters of specific origins. Within each type of enhancement, there are 26 different aspect enhancements. Each aspect is categorized under different Schedules.

Enhancement Types

  • Dual-Origin Enhancements (DO)
    • Useable only by characters who match one of the two origins.
    • Purchasable at level 15 (useable by level 12's). Possible to drop at lower levels, though unlikely.
    • Can be combined with other DO's as long as one of the origins match the character's origin.
      • EXAMPLE: Science character. Can use Tech/Sci and Mut/Sci. Can combine Tech/Sci and Mut/Sci, can also conbine Tech/Sci and Tech/Sci. Cannot combine Tech/Sci and Nat/Tech.
  • Single-Origin Enhancements (SO)
    • Useable only by characters matching its origin.
    • Purchasable at level 25 (useable by level 22's). Possible to drop at lower levels, usually through a Task/Strike Force or Trial. Still unlikely
    • Can only be combined with enhancements matching its origin
  • Hamidon Enhancements (HO)

    • Useable by any character.
    • Only dropped by the Hamidon in 'The Hive', a level 45+ zone.
    • Enhances 2 or more aspects at the same level as SO's.
    • Can only be combined with other HO's that enhance the same two aspects.
      • EXAMPLE: Centriole Exposure (Damage/Range). and (insert name of Damage/Accuracy)
      • Centriole can be placed in any power that does damage and/or has a range aspect. Can be placed in brawl, but will not increase melee range.
