Getting through one of those tough battles feels good in and of itself. Just got the 2000 iso reward. My She-hulk is weak, so that is a bit tough. Was this close before, in a long battle with Colossus as last man standing, with a nearly wipedout Captain Marvel and a She-hulk with health but no attacks. I needed one black to take him out, he needed one red. Just a rubbish board, trying desperately to make a black match, making sure he didn't get a red, and using she-hulk as much as possible. Finally got the black match! But then there were no more matches, and on the new board he immediately made a cascade that wiped Captain Marvel out, and then next turn Immovable Object + Colossal Punch. Game over. Darn!

Ugh, the mission to get the Mystique is 4* Thor, Rags, and Loki, all 212+. Not sure my roster can handle that.
BTW, is 2* Johnny Storm worth keeping?

I don't think so, but I don't use 2 stars at all anymore unless they're buffed, so I dunno.
my steve rogers is cover maxed but not 166d so this pvp is rough. he's fun to play with but soooooo slow so I've skipped leveling him (well, I have him at 110 or so) in favor of more usable characters. he's good in pve, like hulk; so they're in the queue to level, though really I want to get Blade playable before anything (well, & get 2 more green & 2 more black xforce covers: have him at 229, 3-3-5 but that's a lame spec for making noise in pvp)

with so many characters i am constantly desperate for ISO though
― Nhex, Sunday, 14 December 2014 21:22 (nine years ago) link
any of you still playing this want to join an alliance? we look for 650-700 min pvp, lately been pushing harder in pve b/c of all the new characters, but nobody spends (much) money & it's pretty laid back. we've been top 100 every season.
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 16 December 2014 14:48 (nine years ago) link
dude 650 PVP is pretty hardcore
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 December 2014 14:57 (nine years ago) link
You actually need a souped up featured character to make that + hours of grinding every weekend
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 December 2014 14:58 (nine years ago) link
yeah I guess? I hit 8-900 most pvps but I have like 10 166s + a 229 xforce and most 3 stars that aren't 166d I have cover maxed or close. so it's not so hard for me. I do grind a bit, probably play 30-60 mins a day, sometimes a bit more. but yeah.
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 16 December 2014 15:01 (nine years ago) link
even if you do a full 166 team, once you start hitting other full 166 teams doesn't it completely grind your progress? i'll usually hit that point around 500pts
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 December 2014 15:09 (nine years ago) link
not all 166s teams are equal though; and I don't hit that wall until 600 usually. after that though the amount of buff for the featured character matters (since the buffs are nonlinear I think?)
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 16 December 2014 15:19 (nine years ago) link
that sounds correct - at full 166, you get boosted all the way to 249. fairly sure you don't get that many levels added for weaker characters
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 December 2014 15:47 (nine years ago) link
actually, i'm not so sure nm
my steve rogers is like 110 but he was only buffed to 167, whereas 166s were buffed to like 249 I think

btw I'm ok with revised Daredevil now. Changes to blue (Billy Club) are ok but beefing up Purple and Red were very nice changes. Purple is good against strike/protect tile spammers and the Red is even more brutal since you can loop the attack
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 December 2014 19:30 (nine years ago) link
This.
Strangely, I was getting all lollipops as my opponents in the Shulk PVP. Didn't stop me from losing once to a 2* Thorverine combo that probably averaged level 65 because of stupid play.
― TAKING SIDES: HUMANS VS. GUACAMOLEEE (Leee), Tuesday, 16 December 2014 19:38 (nine years ago) link
my daredevil's been at 5-4-4 for a long time, but I haven't leveled him much (maybe he's ~50 or 60?). what's a good spec for him now?
I am loving my newly beefy Falcon: with Patch's green after a couple yellow matches I'm doing 2-3k per match
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 16 December 2014 20:10 (nine years ago) link
regarding Daredevil: 5 purple can work well with Patch with 5 green. otherwise 3/5/5.

i hate you, super-buffed AI Falconalso fighting Wolverine in these makes me realize how much I was leaning on X-Force Wolvie, since I can't use him
― Nhex, Sunday, 21 December 2014 18:04 (nine years ago) link
I have my IM40 at 3/4/2 -- should I pump the 53K in ISO to bring him to level 114 (I have 107K in the bank). I think his best team-up on my roster would be with MagNow or Wolvie and/or Storm (all 2*), none of my leveled 3*s have knockout blue/red powers (maybe Hulk).
― Leeegally Blonde (Leee), Sunday, 21 December 2014 22:49 (nine years ago) link
i have a soft spot for IM40 but to me the blue is his worst power - takes so long to charge (unless you pair him w/MagNow or OBW to generate it) and other 3*s have passed him by in utility. but he's a great tank just for HP levels. if there's no one else you can buff, go ahead!
― Nhex, Sunday, 21 December 2014 23:00 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I'd be using him purely as a tanky battery. I want to put that ISO to better use, but the rate at which I'm gaining 3* covers has been SLOW, I don't remember the last PVP where I managed top 50 or 100 even.
― Leeegally Blonde (Leee), Sunday, 21 December 2014 23:06 (nine years ago) link
Doh, forgot my 2/2/2 Lazy Daken. I can only bring up to 76, which doesn't quite replace the 2*.
― Leeegally Blonde (Leee), Sunday, 21 December 2014 23:09 (nine years ago) link
Today I got 2 Hood covers from standard tokens. Now my second, unleveled Hood is at 4/3/2. Are certain covers more common than others? For a while I was buried under Patch covers.
― poxy fülvous (abanana), Monday, 22 December 2014 04:15 (nine years ago) link
yeah - thankfully now they just give you the actual rates for each card in the app (look for the tiny ? on the token purchase screen)

makes sense since it looks like they're doing the "Enemy of the State" storylinebut dammit, means i probably won't be able to use XF Wolvie for half the missions....
