yeah it's really only at 5 green and/or 5 black where he takes over

droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 14:04 (nine years ago) link

yeah you're right - i just checked the wiki and there are huge improvements at lvl 5 for both
that's what I get for going by my gut

Nhex, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 14:11 (nine years ago) link

didn't realize lvl 5 black gives you AP also!

Nhex, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 14:11 (nine years ago) link

I have a 188 Wolvie at 2/4/3 and he's basically the cornerstone of my team between his healing and his ability to clear the board; cannot WAIT for 5/5/3

Right now my default team is 188 X-Force, 166 IM40, 153 Classic Spider-Man and I can steamroll almost anyone aside from lvl 270 super-buffed nonsense and there I just need to start with the right boosts (basically use Spidey to freeze the most dangerous character and IM40 as a Spidey battery/red nuke and X-Force to reset the board/black nuke)

yeah the ap steal with black is hilarious; maxed hulks become a joke because you save them until last, have enough black for a surgical strike, take them down a bunch but also get enough green to follow it immediately with an xforce. he's downed in one turn from full.

10-pack results:
Human Torch (black)
Falcoln (purple)
Punisher (black)

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Friday, 30 January 2015 04:57 (nine years ago) link

nice

Nhex, Friday, 30 January 2015 05:16 (nine years ago) link

10-pack results:
10 2-star covers

Vernon Locke, Friday, 30 January 2015 09:30 (nine years ago) link

Bought 3- and 8-hour shields, just to get a green Loki. Time for a break dammit.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Sunday, 1 February 2015 22:06 (nine years ago) link

Think I've finally lost interest in this. Too hard keeping up with the myriad new ***-star characters as a casual player, while my existing roster languishes without new covers since drop rates are so low.

Mostly, though, it's just that the core match mechanic isn't that fun anymore. With the game as grindy as it is, all those character animations and loading screens make each match into a real drag. I wish there were an option to turn them off.

Millsner, Sunday, 1 February 2015 23:55 (nine years ago) link

Loki's green passive is pretty great.

poxy fülvous (abanana), Monday, 2 February 2015 05:55 (nine years ago) link

yeah, those loading screens have often been enough to turn me off the game for a while. portable games like this shouldn't have loading times imo

Nhex, Monday, 2 February 2015 06:29 (nine years ago) link

top fifty in the season! I get a ten pack for that.

got my Loki to 5-5-3; 3-5-5 the killer build now though. he's my current ISO project.

droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 2 February 2015 09:22 (nine years ago) link

Got a green Loki from the tourney, and Red Lady Thor from a Heroic Token from the season ending, good weekend

Nhex, Monday, 2 February 2015 18:29 (nine years ago) link

pulled a black Cage from my ten pack, nothing else useful. still, have my Loki up to 110ish already.

droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 2 February 2015 18:31 (nine years ago) link

Is it worth it to respec 2* Daken to 5 blue?

Nhex, Monday, 2 February 2015 18:39 (nine years ago) link

I have mine 4/4/5, and I really like it. I get big damage (up to 2K+) with blue, and while I'm prone to the health penalty a little more often now, it's rarely a problem.

PS got a Yellow Patch which brings him to 5/4/4, 166'ed my second d00d!

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Monday, 2 February 2015 18:45 (nine years ago) link

ok, i'll try it. got two Blue Dakens today

Nhex, Monday, 2 February 2015 18:58 (nine years ago) link

Yeah with 2* daken. I have 3-5-5 lazy Daken and I want 5-5-3 but with 2* Daken no more 2 tiles at 5

droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 2 February 2015 21:26 (nine years ago) link

I have literally just started this and then read this thread (well, without clicking on "show 3807 hidden posts") - could someone reassure me that if I DGAF about PVP then I'll run out of stuff to do quite quickly?

Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:00 (nine years ago) link

I'd just do the PVE stuff until you have some decent ** guys, but eventually you want to do PVP because the rewards are worth it. Also the gameplay isn't any different.

polyphonic, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:10 (nine years ago) link

There are PVE events as well beyond the 5 prologue chapters. Don't worry, this game has a pernicious ability to reward you for mindless grinding.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:13 (nine years ago) link

And they re-run the old PVE events constantly. I don't think we've gone without a PVE event running for months now

BTW - for all PVP events, including Lightning Rounds - they throw up some cheap dummy AI opponents to beat up on with lvl 1 characters (you'll figure out which handles these are quickly) - you might as well grind some of those for the iso and rewards

But like poly said, the gameplay is almost exactly the same anyway, just without the ridiculously cheesy story and dialogue

Nhex, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:37 (nine years ago) link

I've quit! But Star-lord, you say?

Frederik B, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:43 (nine years ago) link

Frederik, the boat starship has pretty much sailed on him already.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:46 (nine years ago) link

Milano we hardly knew ye

Nhex, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:47 (nine years ago) link

The countdown on Star Lord's abilities is annoying but they are hilariously fun if they fire

"Go pet your dog" is the name of my dog (DJP), Wednesday, 4 February 2015 19:48 (nine years ago) link

They are getting rid of the dummy enemies.

poxy fülvous (abanana), Wednesday, 4 February 2015 20:16 (nine years ago) link

You mean no more too_many_pants? D:

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Wednesday, 4 February 2015 20:55 (nine years ago) link

I guess it's working, in that when I stopped on my cycle home a few times, I thought "Hey I could check and see if they're healed" - and then remembered that actually that wouldn't be happening because I had played through the 20% battery warning and the 10% battery warning, standing there beside my bike in the cold parking garage.

Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 22:43 (nine years ago) link

dammit, i'm gonna miss WhatsFlappinYo

Nhex, Wednesday, 4 February 2015 23:44 (nine years ago) link

Cyclops was possessed by the Phoenix Force and ruled the world? And now he's a Freedom Fighter after fighting against the Avengers?? Jeez, things changed since I last followed comics.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Sunday, 15 February 2015 19:43 (nine years ago) link

I was just like "he's red now?"

otm rcuise (Will M.), Monday, 16 February 2015 16:06 (nine years ago) link

those 12-hour PVE cycles are too much for me

Nhex, Monday, 16 February 2015 16:29 (nine years ago) link

I've missed the 8 hour refreshes a couple of times but I'm still floating around the 100 mark

got a Star Lord yesterday on a pve token. sold my 2 star daken & thor to make room

droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 16 February 2015 16:40 (nine years ago) link

This PVE has left me with like 5 100+ Onslaught team-ups.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Tuesday, 17 February 2015 02:13 (nine years ago) link

ugh

1 star black widow team ups are where it's at

droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 17 February 2015 09:24 (nine years ago) link

That makes so much sense! But I never face MBW anymore.

4/1/4 4verine after a lovely green pull -- ugh give me 5 in ~something~ so I can start using this guy.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Thursday, 19 February 2015 01:11 (nine years ago) link

Only one 3* cover in my ten-pack, but it was the Luke Cage protect tile one so I'm OK with it.

poxy fülvous (abanana), Thursday, 19 February 2015 02:27 (nine years ago) link

Was the Daily Deadpool reward the same for everybody? Wasn't too tough for me to grab a Black Panther.

Nhex, Thursday, 19 February 2015 08:06 (nine years ago) link

That's what I got.

poxy fülvous (abanana), Thursday, 19 February 2015 08:49 (nine years ago) link

I love the new mode

droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 19 February 2015 08:54 (nine years ago) link

Yeah, same, but my BP still doesn't have any black. :(

Is W4d3W1lson an ilxor? Because he joked that he was always going to send a Devil Dino team-up whenever someone requested them, accidentally or not... and it actually helped me out! Because the only 1* I had on my roster was Storm, which meant I couldn't play the 1*-only node unless I created a new roster spot. Fortunately, I had a few of Juggernauts to spec him to 1/3, but of course he was weak as hell (I actually died once playing that node) -- and that's where Prehistoric Bite saved my bacon!

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Thursday, 19 February 2015 16:34 (nine years ago) link

haha

all I had was my l23ish Juggsy but I pulled it off first try, maybe used a team up, not sure. was hilarious! haven't tried today's yet. I hope they change all pve to this.

droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 19 February 2015 16:58 (nine years ago) link

W4d3 is ilxor Vernon Locke. (just so you don't have to show all messages)

poxy fülvous (abanana), Thursday, 19 February 2015 17:25 (nine years ago) link

Thanks, abanana. So, moral of the story: Don't look a gift T. rex in the mouth.

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Thursday, 19 February 2015 17:32 (nine years ago) link

(And thanks Vernon!)

Hollinger Escape Plan (Leee), Thursday, 19 February 2015 17:32 (nine years ago) link

Today's yellow C.Mags was useless to me, but yeah I'm liking this new daily mode as well. The two Heroic-level Taco tokens are a nice sweetener, too.

Nhex, Thursday, 19 February 2015 17:34 (nine years ago) link

No worries Leee!

(Time difference + new baby = late reply)

Vernon Locke, Friday, 20 February 2015 11:02 (nine years ago) link

10-pack results: 1 Yellow Luke Cage, 1 Blue C. Mags, 1 Green Patch. Happy!
