Overview

Alignment Merits are a special salvage awarded as part of the Alignment system introduced in Issue 18. There are two types of alignment merits: "Hero Alignment Merits" and "Villain Alignment Merits".

Obtaining Merits

There are two ways to obtain alignment merits:

Alignment Merits can only be earned and possessed while a character maintains their respective alignments (Hero for Hero Alignment Merits, Villain for Villain Alignment Merits). Changing alignments will forfeit all unspent Alignment Merits.

Spending Merits

Alignment Merits can be spent at Alignment Vendors to purchase most Recipes, including Purple Recipes and PvP Recipes. The Alignment Vendor for heroes is the storage box next to B.O.T.L.E.R. in Fort Trident. The Alignment Vendor for villains is the trash next to Trashcan in The Crucible. B.O.T.L.E.R. and Trashcan are also the contacts for converting Reward Merits and Inf to Alignment Merits. Once a purchase with Alignment Merits is made, there is a 20 hour timer before another puchase can be made.

Availability is based on the cost of the recipe from a Merit Vendor in Reward Merits.

  • Items that cost less than 100 Reward Merits are not available for purchase.
  • Items that cost 100-199 Reward Merits cost 1 Alignment Merit.
  • Items that cost 200-299 Reward Merits cost 2 Alignment Merits.
  • Items that cost 300 or more Reward Merits do not exist, but would presumably follow the same pattern.
  • Items that cannot be purchased with Reward Merits have a special pricing scheme (purples, PVP IOs, Respecs, costume parts, etc).

Because most uncommon recipes cost less than 100 Reward Merits, they aren't available for purchase from Alignment Vendors.
