School?s out! Fathers Day! Positrons birthday! So many reasons to celebrate! Yes, Heroes and Villains, the time has come again. Roughly twice a year we turn up the dial and invite players to rack up XP at double the normal rate, specifically, Hero and Villain characters will receive double the XP, Influence and Infamy for all of their accomplishments in the game. www.cityofheroes.com
