got four GSBW in the HT tourney, finished #3. got a black hulk cover from a draw which I've been craving b/c he eats me up.

just leveling up whatever 3 star is buffed these days

Man... this new healing thing. Looks like I'll be leaning hard on Wolvie/Daken from now on.

Wait, what. What does this mean for OBW?

New feature: True Healing

Characters receive true healing if their powers heal their wounds. Character powers that ease combat but don't heal wounds provide temporary health.
- The following abilities are considered true healing:
- Ares (Dark Avengers): Sunder - This ability is more a moment of weakness than actual damage, so Ares gains health back when the weakness passes.
- Daken (Classic) and (Dark Avengers Wolverine): Healing & Heat
- Wolverine (Patch) and (Astonishing X-Men): Healing Factor
- Wolverine (X-Force): Recovery- The following abilities are considered temporary healing:
- Black Widow (Original): Anti-Gravity Device - This ability uses gravitic fields that lets heroes fight more easily despite injuries. It doesn't heal them of these injuries however.
- Spider-Man (Classic): Web Bandages - These bandages help heroes fight through pain but do not provide actual healing.
- She-Hulk (Modern): Reprieve – She-Hulk allows for the team to take a rest from combat for a moment and gather their strength but does not heal any wounds.

what the fucking fuck

game over

so basically the developers were like "ppl are playing this game too much, how can we get them to stop"

Done

In other words, FREE AT LAST.

The change is to stop people from going to easy battles to heal with OBW and Spidey.

I use OBW to get through hard matches. Easy matches is just a waste of time.

wow, cuz they really needed to nerf Spidey even more

Well, true healing sucks just as much as I thought it would. What are the chances they change it back?

Probably low, the idea is to entice people into buying health packs with $$$. For me it just means I'll play even less than I was already

I basically have no chance of getting heroic tokens anymore.

the argt they make is it encourages roster diversity.

lowered heal times are much nicer i gotta say.

replaced mpq with quadropus rampage and my life's never been better

I'm getting a new phone, probably tomorrow, and I'm thinking it will be an excellent opportunity for me to exorcise this rapidly decaying anti-fun mess from my life. Hooray?

I was going to quit today but I got a Falcon on a heroic pull and a Storm Mohawk on a standard pull. It's like the game knew.

On back to back pulls, I might add.

I got two Puns from the Daredevil tourney, but I'm already 141, bleh. could respec to 4-5-4, aiming toward 3-5-5, or could stay at 5-5-3. not sure how much I care to have the red at 5. reason in favor of respec: I have Psylocke at 5 black and at 128, and BP at 3 black and max 128. for both black is their strongest color so if I run with Pun + either of them I'll want black to go to them rather than Pun. not sure

I would never use Pun and Psy on the same team. They're too similar.

yeah but you go with the 141s you have, not the ones you want or wish to have at a later date

Sold IM40 at level 106 so I could start a new one with 2 yellow -- I was never using him. Pun, DD and Loki cover maxed.

Daredevil is kind of the Bag-man of the 3* characters. So bad! But fun when he does something! Does OK as a third with Thor and Hood.

ran the DD tourney w/ cmags and panther, so never even fired off a DD power since cmags has a total overlap and his powers are all better.

off to a slow start in the PVE but it looks like my bracket is flagging a bit so I'm starting to stay in the top 100 consistently.

not sure who to level next. just been tossing my ISO here and there to whoever is up in each tourney, since I have a good "core team" at the moment.

with the healing change i might switch it up to push a few more folks into the 140 range.

punisher, hulk, and gsbw are good candidates in that regard -- all covermaxed but not fully leveled.

other *** with some leveling available (not necessarily to 141, but to over 100 at least) are doom, iron man, human torch, hood, daredevil

the healing change blows so much

Yeah it is making me lose interest pretty fast.

The main thing I've learned is that you should use BW's healing as soon as you have access to it, basically, to avoid lasting damage. Before I was holding off as long as was reasonable, but that strategy is dead now.

WTF is this character shift thing?

sounds like something that would require me to change my stupid .xls, not sure if i have enough of an arse ot give tho :/

My X-Force Wolvie is now at 138, but still seems less useful than NOW Magneto or NOW Thor

he is useless at any level.

I'm thinking that I might use Loki and Bagman in every PVP event for a while, see how far I can get

I finally sold my bagman :(

np: Stone Roses, "Bye Bye Bagman"

Day 250 reward is a Psylocke cover, so I guess I'll play for another week...

ooh what color?

I didn't realize you could see how many days you've played. Gah, 241. What a waste.

xp Red

red, nice. I'll have her at 5-3-5 then, the ideal build.

last night to get my mmr down I tanked with everyone on my roster, so boring but it seems to have worked ok

Thinking of doing an aldo and spending all my stockpiled ISO and HP and then uninstalling.

I got the ten-pack! It was all 2-stars I already have! Fuck!

xp i'm almost there

This thread is as close as I've got to regret.

The game has mostly gotten worse in the last few months

Well aldo, a funny thing about regret is blah blah mom blah SATAN.

I wont get the ten-pack because of traveling. And the next ten-pack I probably wont get as well because of more traveling. Yay.

Actually, I've come to terms with the fact that this simply isn't a game I want to compete in, and I'm okay with playing just a few matches a day, and hoping to get some two-star tokens. Every once in a while getting a three-star character!

I'm appalled that they've added so few new ways to use their basic mechanic: it's still all just three against three, in what are now standard set-ups: the simulator, heroic Juggs tourney, the Hunt, etc. and they make good characters worse without making bad characters better. it's a very low energy game, development wise.

I still enjoy it though; being part of an active alliance helps since every couple of days I get at least one more three star cover. I aim for 300-500 points in pvp and a good showing in pve, nothing more. I'm one of the lesser players in my alliance but I'm steady enough that they keep me; and the rewards are pretty nice.

I may get one 3 star a month.

join my alliance!

I don't remember the last time the ILX alliance got a 3* reward. We have fallen so far.
