I mean, the whole "you could when 10K hero points" would be enticing were it not for my experiences with every single tournament they've released so far and how it is seemingly impossible to end at #1 without forgoing any and all sleep
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:15 (ten years ago) link
300 hero points?
depends what the return is. I'd spend them if I had them, only have 150 now. have a lot of roster spots & wouldn't be averse to dumping my dumb belena yelova or bagman

there are at least 500 players out there more hardcore than me and i've played every day for 100 days. i know the extent of my ubernerd status thank you much.
― this harmless group of nerds and the women that love them (forksclovetofu), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:19 (ten years ago) link
I mean, a top 100 finish would be worth it but there's no fucking way I'd get it given my current roster level
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:20 (ten years ago) link
wait so if you end up < 400 you get nothing?
― Euler, Monday, 27 January 2014 17:20 (ten years ago) link
no, it keeps declining all the way down. you're guaranteed at least a heroic draw but so what?
― this harmless group of nerds and the women that love them (forksclovetofu), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:21 (ten years ago) link
you still get stuff. 400-1k: heroic x3, 1k-3k heroic x2, 3k-4k heroic x1, everyone else heroic x1 (with some varying iso-8 from 2k to 500 in there too but who cares tbh when it costs 300 hp)

the funny thing abt "ONLY USE HP FOR COVER SLOTS" tho is that like... after you get a certain number of cover slots... why bother? like are you really gonna keep using that lvl 20 original hawkeye dawg?
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:24 (ten years ago) link
shields are pretty cool imo
― mh, Monday, 27 January 2014 17:24 (ten years ago) link
probably could jettison the one stars at this point tbh
― Euler, Monday, 27 January 2014 17:25 (ten years ago) link
i mean im only spending hp on cover slots full stop b/c OCD collect collect collect but i recognize the kinda absurd pointlessness of it (pointless even relative to, say, playing this game in the first place)
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:26 (ten years ago) link
willm: i'm on that pokemon ish in that i'm not gonna be happy unless i have a full roster. besides, they have a habit of buffing obscure characters regularly and it's good to have them in reserve just in case. and anyway, there's gonna be new characters rolled out weekly at least for this thing so unless you wanna ultimately go sophie's choice, i want the option to shelf all my guys.
― this harmless group of nerds and the women that love them (forksclovetofu), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:27 (ten years ago) link
but yeah the key word is pointless here
this is why they should bring back the "1-star only" tournament
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:36 (ten years ago) link
definitely on the pokeymans tip, want space for EVERYONEconsidering how poorly I generally do in lightning rounds this seems like a bad idea but...300HP is the standard cost for 1 Heroic Token anywayTop 2000 guarantees 2 Tokens + 2000 iso. eh, still kind of bad deal
― Nhex, Monday, 27 January 2014 17:38 (ten years ago) link
I just sold my IM35 and Juggernaut (both L40) this weekend, but can't bear yet to part with M Storm or MBW, too many fond memories with those two.
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:50 (ten years ago) link
Also, pretty done with PVP (I mean, till the next one) when all my hard work in the Army of One event netted me all of one Patch cover (I got as high as the mid-20s before the big backslide).
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Monday, 27 January 2014 17:51 (ten years ago) link
need one green cover to complete my patch. after that maybe i'll try to just stop playing this game for a while.

whoa, you're already filled up on Patch? nice
damn u scotland yard

i'm impressed you filled up patch; you must've been grinding these past few daysstill #1 on scotland yard, hoping i can hang on

i got 2/2/2 in the ares tourney. then ground a few in the last few events & then took top 5 in big pun round one. now i only need to hit top 45 or so in pun round 2, and i can basically ignore the subevents except if i care about early access to daredevil.
― lollercoaster of rove (s.clover), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:12 (ten years ago) link
currently sitting at 4/3/5 with two reds in the inventory but i want a 5/3/5 build i think.
We haven't really talked about it, but I really dig the Daredevil concept, with hidden trap tiles the opponent can't see. Looks like a great counterpick to Blue characters.
What level is your Punisher, s.clover?
― Nhex, Monday, 27 January 2014 21:15 (ten years ago) link
one hint for scotland yard: you can beat most of the non-dark avengers ones by going in with well leveled magnow/thor/wolverine and a blue buff. Mags blue attack clears the entire board and the purple gives you the blue attack, so you can start to cycle and pick them apart, even the 230 level guys
― this harmless group of nerds and the women that love them (forksclovetofu), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:31 (ten years ago) link
yeah i was rolling obw with by 2/3/2 magnow, plus wolvie -- the first two actually would win it for me (spend purple with mag to get crits & give blue, spend blue to delay countdowns indefinitely) and wolvie was just there to make it go faster (damage).
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:35 (ten years ago) link
Want magneto covers more than any other cover in the game
any magneto
just
COME ON
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:40 (ten years ago) link
game really needs actual player interaction like cover-trading
― mh, Monday, 27 January 2014 21:46 (ten years ago) link
that and/or a respec feature, where you spend a certain amount of ISO or hero points to split a character back into component covers so you can rebuild without having to delete all your progress and start collecting covers from scratch
like if I want to switch my Astonishing Wolvie from 5/4/4 to 5/3/5, I could split him down to components and then put him back together as lvl 6 5/3/4 and start leveling/collecting from there
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:50 (ten years ago) link
that is the most brutally punitive respec method ever, i truly hope they don't make it that harsh sohuld they implement a respec
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:53 (ten years ago) link
maybe you can peel off covers one by one, and you only lose up to whatever the max lvl you could get to without the cover you removed?
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:55 (ten years ago) link
i'd be ok with that, even if they charged like a nominal HP fee (perhaps 25HP/star or something).
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Monday, 27 January 2014 21:59 (ten years ago) link
I probably played way too much OG WoW considering that first respec idea seemed to be entirely reasonable on first glance
― SHAUN (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2014 22:00 (ten years ago) link
No HP fee is nominal till you've put in like 2.5 months of straight playing this.
― Neil Nosepicker (Leee), Monday, 27 January 2014 22:17 (ten years ago) link
ate dinner, dropped from #9 to "top 25". well, at least i got two heroic tokens out of it
― Nhex, Monday, 27 January 2014 23:22 (ten years ago) link
HAHAH i was top 5 until i got on the subway home. got out, boom, top 25. turned them in, got another WOLVERINE X-FORCE. joke's on you, MPQ, i won the fucking wolverine olympics
