yeah, i guess that's a pretty obvious answer.
― yodarman, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 19:47 (ten years ago) link
ok i just bought another slot for the alliance -- i guess the 4th or 5th so far from me.

thanks!!! dude, you are my personal savior.

If we are in a gap for new characters I will save for one rather than buy new slots - sold a Bagman and a ModHawk so I wouldn't be tempted to spend the HP.

one note: as everybody is bumped to commander no one can be kicked out of the alliance. that means that if people stop playing this with regular (let's say at least semi-daily frequency), we really need you to step out and let somebody in who can contribute.

We can't revoke commanderness?

GO TEAM
― Euler, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 20:55 (ten years ago) link
How do you guys approach PvP? My team isn't that good so I don't feel like I can just grind it at the last minute. I need to build up a little bit of a point base in the first two days, so I've been playing a little bit after each new day starts. Are you guys waiting?
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 21:21 (ten years ago) link
I tend to wait, though for the last PVP I jumped in right from the beginning; when I checked back in, I saw that the leader had over 1000 points, whereas if the leader when I wait tends to have 600-700, or 800 tops.
So, the issue of when to enter a PVP is a tradeoff: do you want the progression awards (if so, jump in early to build up your totals), or do you want to place well (if so, wait a while)?
― Call the Doctorb, the B is for Brownstein (Leee), Wednesday, 16 April 2014 21:25 (ten years ago) link
i wait until either just under 2 days left, or just under 1 day 12 hrs left, not sure which is better, then grind up to ~500, then play occasionally, mainly retaliations, and then make another push at the end.
― wat is teh waht (s.clover), Wednesday, 16 April 2014 21:26 (ten years ago) link
I play when I have time, which is hopefully at the end.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 21:39 (ten years ago) link
can someone approve my alliance request, or do i need to wait until the next event starts?
― yodarman, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 22:01 (ten years ago) link
done

How deep are we running now? And do we want to recruit from D3P or something?
― Call the Doctorb, the B is for Brownstein (Leee), Wednesday, 16 April 2014 22:31 (ten years ago) link
I would also very much like to join, I just can't really contribute anything as of yet. Will get more time, and better internet, soon.
― Frederik B, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 23:15 (ten years ago) link
we're at 15. would rather we didn't recruit from d3p -- the fun is being in an ilx alliance, not just chasing those placement rewards.

I just want you all to know that I am seriously considering trying to max out Bagman just because

got two more lazy caps from the heroic tourney
that tourney was pretty boring, though; SO tired of fighting venom
though I'm gonna miss my level 100+ Torch; a blast of 1300+ at 8 red was NICE
― Euler, Thursday, 17 April 2014 17:50 (ten years ago) link
also I'm wondering if I oughta just level my mod storm to 50, given how much they let you use her in these special tourneys

These were the three choices I had in the hulk tourney this morning:

That avalanch of rewards after a long event is so satisfying. Got 2 Cap covers and a ton of HP.

― Nhex, Thursday, 17 April 2014 18:17 (ten years ago) link
Hmm, might be worth it: I have mine at 33, and it looks like it'll take 15K ISO to max her out.
― Call the Doctorb, the B is for Brownstein (Leee), Thursday, 17 April 2014 18:28 (ten years ago) link
she can't survive a big group attack even at max I gather, but o/w she's pretty safe since in any reasonable team she's not #1 in any color

i cant find the post but i remember someone upthread crackin' wise about if we are all posting our rosters from an immaculately curated .xls or if we rewrite them every time. i took it to heart and made a spreadsheet today where i enter the names, levels, rarities and card levels and it makes an ilx-friendly output that includes the max level calculation! sadly not much of a change in my party lately so i'll only post the two notable upgrades
*** Hulk LVL 102 (115) 5/0/5 *** Hoodmusic.net LVL 89 (89)* 3/4/2
you too can have your own copy (please feel absolutely free to make fun of how lazy and confusing this sheet is, i really wasn't at my mental best when grinding out the code) my going here and DLing it: http://bit.ly/1pf0IZf
i havent used google docs in so long that i don't remember how to edit it online so if there are any mistakes i will just re-uplaod it tmrw
― Neckbread (Will M.), Friday, 18 April 2014 03:08 (ten years ago) link
used the LRs to tank the other day and it worked. The "get to 100 then throw in a tank team" strat hadn't really lowered my difficulty, so I just did it manually, throwing all my nonactive roster into losing fights until they were all dead. I'm back facing more managable opponents -- we'll see how long it lasts.
― wat is teh waht (s.clover), Friday, 18 April 2014 03:27 (ten years ago) link
same thing has worked for me - i think it works off wins/losses, so making the losses happen speeds it up
man, the Hunt AGAIN? well, at least there's that Punisher tourney

To celebrate that, with the latest update, I now get a nag screen telling me that my iphone is too old every damned time I open this game, I've bought another slot. milo z, have at it.

for some reason i talked abt this on ALLIANCE CHAT last night instead of ilx, but god does it feel good to finally have a really powered up character of mine as the theme character for a competition. i got to like 750 points last night (!) and only got attacked for 80 of that overnight (3 losses, and one successful defence). plus i am rolling eeeeveeerryyyooonneee i face. tbf i sitll skip anyone with 3 chars @100+ or wahtever because i'm a baby, but still
