would love Patch, but chances are I'm just gonna end up with Thor covers that I can't use, so I dunno if I'll play that tourney.

Since the update out of the six standard recruits I've pulled, I've gotten four **'s and 2 *'s. Maybe more frequent now?

I got the last OBW cover I needed from a standard token today. (Also a bunch of single-* garbage.)
I also caved and bought the starter pack off of steam -- $3 and change for 600 Hero Points.

What's your planned Punisher build? 5 red obviously but I'm not sure between black and green.
― Nhex, Saturday, 25 January 2014 03:41 (ten years ago) link
went 5 black on the assumption i'd pair him with a strike tile generator. when i've had to play him without wolvie, really wish it was 5 green.
― lollercoaster of rove (s.clover), Saturday, 25 January 2014 03:46 (ten years ago) link
i kinda see the negatives more than the positives of both optionsblack - mass attack seems negligible and the generator is too slow to be that greatgreen - random board blow ups ruin any strategy with tile-based teammates, strike tile isn't that strong
― Nhex, Saturday, 25 January 2014 04:07 (ten years ago) link
the level 5 generator goes down to one turn, so its way more reliable. and strike tiles really boost the mass attack.

I know I'm way behind you guys but I am quite pleased that I just got three OBW covers and can take mine to 30 now
― mh, Saturday, 25 January 2014 05:06 (ten years ago) link
Nice, mh.
I got my ~first~ Rag cover, ever, from a Divine Champs draw. Had to sell my fully leveled Jugs, will miss that big lug. ~tear~
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Saturday, 25 January 2014 05:17 (ten years ago) link
Somehow I redeemed a Heroic token and got Invisible Woman? first four star for me, but I have no idea how I'll get more covers or level her.
― mh, Saturday, 25 January 2014 05:19 (ten years ago) link
Eventually you'll come in first in an event, duh!
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Saturday, 25 January 2014 05:30 (ten years ago) link
Last-minute rush placed me perfectly to get 3 OBW covers from the tourney. Happy. Wonder if it's better to build her 3/5/5, or 4/4/5? (I already have 5 black covers.)
― Millsner, Saturday, 25 January 2014 06:46 (ten years ago) link
Aggressive Recon (Purple) is decent, but to me the real money's in Anti-Gravity Device (Blue) for the healing + countdown delay abilities. I ended up going 4/5/4 (Purple/Blue/Black) as the covers came to me. You may consider going 3/5/5 with either, as the level 5 versions of Purple and Blue are much better than 3 or 4. http://marvelpuzzlequest.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Widow_%28Original%29
― Nhex, Saturday, 25 January 2014 07:13 (ten years ago) link
I got my first Rag and **** Wolverine covers from heroic tokens. woo. I just need Classic Magneto, Patch and Invisible Woman now. Oh and Daredevil, I guess.
I went 3/5/5 with OBW and I think that's the best build. Aggressive Recon levels raise the AP cost, and I think the lower levels are actually a bit better, since you can get to 6-8 AP sooner and more often.
― zanarkand bozo (abanana), Saturday, 25 January 2014 14:12 (ten years ago) link
Agreed on the 3/5/5 build
― this harmless group of nerds and the women that love them (forksclovetofu), Saturday, 25 January 2014 14:23 (ten years ago) link
I did 4/5/4 before I realized such things matter. Life is full of regret.

So, the rubberbanding missions are kind of broken. Just retreat or have characters die and they become easier. When you can use the super-powered Patch, you don't even need any other characters to win.

i was wondering if i was going nuts. the Deadly/Impossible missions ARE changing difficulty before my eyes
― Nhex, Saturday, 25 January 2014 22:05 (ten years ago) link
Yeah, that's annoying. THe one thing I liked about the missions was that I would have a string of at least 5 to 7 that I could just pound through and get a lot of iso.
― Jeff, Saturday, 25 January 2014 22:08 (ten years ago) link
Lucked out with a purple OBW cover from a standard token, putting me at 3/3/5 for now. I'll hold out for a couple more blue covers.

Nothing like waking up to see that I've lost 150 points overnight in the PVP tournament.

Does Patch look worth building up? Once they debug him, he's not going to be overwhelmingly awesome from all appearances, no?
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Monday, 27 January 2014 04:12 (ten years ago) link
i think he'll still be pretty great -- just require really thoughtful play.

3 open slots; starting to think that if they keep throwing new characters out I'm gonna be ultimately forced to buy some coins.Finally got Invisible Woman on a heroic draw so that's a complete roster short of daredevil who I assume I'll pull at the end of the current tourney. I am at #1 by about 40 points on the scotland yard run; would be great to pull the three patch covers as that gives me an excuse to not fight so hard on the next round. Not so into the punisher pvp fights; just too hard to crack the top 45. Working on primarily leveling OG Black Widow along with a handful of favorite and new guys (ares, punisher, doom, hood, patch, spidey) as I get them new covers. Then Classic Storm I guess, though I think i'm late to the game for her.

I'm powering through them with minimal trouble honestly. OGBWidow/Thor/Wolverine with +20%Dark Avenger Damage/+3 all/+3 red and yellow buffs lets me knock out juggernaut fairly quick and then it's just about chipping away and replenishing wolverine's claw attacks and cockblocking the yellow and red matches from the ai

Astonishing Wolverine is so brokenly OP at the moment, it's both awesome and ridiculous
nothing quite like building up 10 strike tiles so every match hits for over 1.5K and then using his red strike to one-shot the opposing tank
