Overview

Prestige is used to "buy" plot sizes, rooms, and items for your Supergroup's base. Additionally, it is used to pay the supergroup base's rent each month, which is based on certain items contained in the base.

In order to earn Prestige for your Supergroup, you need to be in Supergroup Mode. To enter this mode, click on the Super button in your chat window. It will open your Supergroup window which will show a list of people in your SG. In the upper right corner is a button that says, "Enter SG Mode". After you enter SG mode, you will see your Supergroup icon in your experience ring.

To leave SG Mode, you can click on the Super button, then the button in the upper right, which will now read "Exit SG Mode."

Alternatively one can use the /sgmode and /sgmodeset 0 or 1 commands.

While you are in Supergroup Mode, you will earn Prestige for defeating enemies, completing missions, etc. At level 25 you will start earning less influence/infamy in exchange for earning Prestige; and at level 29 and above, you earn only half of the total amount of Influence/Infamy while in SG Mode. SG Mode does not alter experience gain/debt payment.

In Issue 12, the Earnings Progression was changed so that Influence/Infamy earnings never fall below 50%.

Prestige Exchange

If a hero or villain is willing to do so they can go to the Super Group Registrar desks, located in Atlas Park , Galaxy City (hero side) and Port Oakes (villain side) and use Influence or Infamy to purchase Prestige for their group. The exchange rate is 1,000,000 inf for 2,000 prestige. You will get 2-3 quotes based on the amount of Influence/Infamy you have. The first is the basic rate: 1 Million for 2000 prestige, second is for 10 Million: 10 Million for 20,000 prestige and then a third: 29 Million (as an example) for 58,000 prestige. The final quote is based on the highest amount of Influence/Infamy your character has on hand.

Prestige Bonus

You can receive a prestige bonus on mission completion through the Monitor Duty Day Job by logging out near a base portal.

Each supergroup also receives a prestige bonus of 20,000 for each of up to the first 15 members, for a total of 300,000 prestige.

Notes

  • There was a ~25% increase in Prestige rewards as of 8-16-06.
  • There was once a major bug in Base Editing that apparently allowed you to buy items, then sell them for more prestige then you bought them for. This bug has been fixed.
  • On 12-10-2007 there was a one-time grant of 20,000 bonus prestige per supergroup member. However, an error in the script for the test server caused that one-time grant to be repeated the following day. Neither bonus grant counted toward the supergroup's total earnings listed at the Supergroup Registrar.
