I've been doing really well with the holiday pvp but hit a wall where all it will put me up against is 290/290/290 or worse. Oh well, at least I got a couple of the CPs.

why are we holding tokens again? sitting on 50something, not in any particular hurry...
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Saturday, 26 December 2015 22:49 (eight years ago) link
there's something called "champion" coming that might let you use duplicate covers. one of the devs suggested holding onto tokens in a podcast.

If you're on Android, there's a special sale of 2900 HP for $5.
― Kylo Riley (Leee), Monday, 28 December 2015 18:08 (eight years ago) link
I would buy that.

Same. Looking instead for some iTunes cards discounts - end of the year makes me feel like it's time to pay tribute to the IAP devils.
― Nhex, Monday, 28 December 2015 19:20 (eight years ago) link
I bought it. :o

10 pack: jack shit that was useful.
Working Cyclops up to 153, need one more red IIRC to be able to move him to 166.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 1 January 2016 20:49 (eight years ago) link
I pulled a blue Silver Surfer; tomorrow's my black Silver Surfer daily reward. Then he'll be 1-2-2. When does he become useful?
― droit au butt (Euler), Friday, 1 January 2016 21:02 (eight years ago) link
I find him useful at 1 black cover as a tank/match damage nightmare
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Saturday, 2 January 2016 07:17 (eight years ago) link
yup
― Nhex, Saturday, 2 January 2016 21:02 (eight years ago) link
in pve or pvp?
― droit au butt (Euler), Sunday, 3 January 2016 11:01 (eight years ago) link
The 4*DDQ required character has finally looped back to the beginning with XF Wolverine. So I'll be getting some Legendary tokens again. (I didn't manage to quit MPQ, but now I'm just doing DDQ and sometimes PVP for command points.)
― aaaaablnnn (abanana), Sunday, 3 January 2016 12:36 (eight years ago) link
got the legendary on my 2nd try today & pulled a yellow Nick Fury, so I'm very happy; he's a monster, behind Jean Gray and Professor X and Hulkbuster, but in the next 4 star tier with Lady Thor and Xforce (imo).
― droit au butt (Euler), Sunday, 3 January 2016 14:59 (eight years ago) link
there's a bug with his trap tiles that makes him very good. if the other team matches two or more at the same time, they all go off multiple times.
― remove butt (abanana), Sunday, 3 January 2016 16:32 (eight years ago) link
I've gotten smoked by him a bunch of times, I'm always like "that guy's only got 9k hp" or whatever & then they get that strike tile & I'm toast
― droit au butt (Euler), Sunday, 3 January 2016 16:37 (eight years ago) link
I also got the Legendary on the second try today! Yay!
Pulled another Starlord! Boo!
― Sofialo Ren (Leee), Sunday, 3 January 2016 17:56 (eight years ago) link
ha, same here on both counts! Now I have a 3/4/2 Starlord which is.. still kinda useless.
― Nhex, Sunday, 3 January 2016 18:07 (eight years ago) link
1/1/3 XF Wolverine did not last long against 270 Cyclops
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Sunday, 3 January 2016 18:15 (eight years ago) link
Heh Nhex, mine is 3/2/3, so even more useless!
― Sofialo Ren (Leee), Sunday, 3 January 2016 19:06 (eight years ago) link
Took more than two tries for me to get the legendary token but I ended up with a red Silver Surfer ^_^ ^_^ ^_^
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Monday, 4 January 2016 03:38 (eight years ago) link
Nice!
In other news, might be time to start hoarding command points:
We'll be launching a new 4* or better token for 20 CP in mid-January, as a cheaper option for the folks making their transition to a 4* team.

― nerd shit (Will M.), Monday, 4 January 2016 18:29 (eight years ago) link
Good thing I haven't been spending my CP for the last couple of weeks. I wonder how will that 20CP token differ from the 25CP token? I'm guessing a narrower range of covers.
― Nhex, Monday, 4 January 2016 18:54 (eight years ago) link
my god, the amount of whining about the drop rate of 5-stars in the forums is astonishing:
https://www.d3go.com/forums/viewtopic.php?style=1&f=7&t=37338
I mean, pro-tip guys: maybe don't spend ALL of your time or any of your money playing this game?
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Monday, 4 January 2016 18:56 (eight years ago) link
DJP: ._.
xp I'm thinking that these new tokens will have lower 5* drop rates.
― Sofialo Ren (Leee), Monday, 4 January 2016 19:10 (eight years ago) link
They have to introduce a streak buster.. I threw thousands in the game lately, going from buyers club to buyers clubs with no result.. Im on a 70 lt pulles without a 5* usable (i had a dupe ss though) while i saw others keep getting 5* after 5* with a tenth of what i drew .. They must guarantee a 5* every 20 token (thats still a 5% odd, half of what they advertise).. Like that you know your efforts and your money are not worthless like now.. The frustration is at an all time high everywhere and i cant count the number of high end players ready to leave because of that.. Once again letting rng decides end game is absurd..
― Does that make you mutter, under your breath, “Damn”? (forksclovetofu), Monday, 4 January 2016 21:40 (eight years ago) link
wtf
After I read that, my first thought was "if I was in charge of this game, I would reduce the drop rate on 5-stars and increase the drop rate on Star Lord and Mr Fantastic"
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Monday, 4 January 2016 21:42 (eight years ago) link
I still haven't spent a cent on this game :)
― polyphonic, Monday, 4 January 2016 21:45 (eight years ago) link
In the current PvE, both Colossus and IM40 are buffed. This means I have started prioritizing black and using IM40 as the target of Fastball Special, which gives me free Recharges and allows me to dump AP before getting a virtually free Unibeam or Ballistic Salvo. It's kind of hilarious.
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 14:43 (eight years ago) link
that sounds like fun; I don't ever use colossus in pvp b/c fastball special is too slow there but it'd be perfect in pve. I only have mine at 120 unbuffed but that oughta be enough
problem is with pve right now is that the prizes aren't compelling enough. I can't grind enough to get the legendary token---I don't think? it seems totally unreachable every time. & o/w I don't need many 3 star covers anymore. so the only goal for me would be the legendary token.
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 14:52 (eight years ago) link
I'm primarily playing PvE for the command points nodes and to grind ISO so I can level characters; also it's just less stressful because no one is going to sneak up behind you when you aren't shielded and gank your progress.
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 14:56 (eight years ago) link
yeah I gotta get some of those command point, though the alliance has been pretty good for that lately!
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:00 (eight years ago) link
yeah, lovin the random whale action for CP. still wondering who was crazy enough to throw down ~$100 around Christmas for the 7CPunfortunately it's a lot harder to get those CP if you don't have the required 4* for the PVEs. this time it's The Thing which I don't have. just as well, i'm a little burnt out after going full steam in December, i'm doing the minimum at the moment
― Nhex, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:19 (eight years ago) link
I did minimum for a couple of seasons, I got the 10 pack this season for the first time in a while.waiting to open it until the "champions mode" or whatever is added, gonna be a bunch of two stars anyway.that article posted yesterday said that they're done with new 2 and 3 stars, not sure what I think about that, since my 4 star collection sucks au moment
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:32 (eight years ago) link
i guess it's inevitable for this kind of game. there has to be an infinite supply of incentives, power bloat to keep people hooked
― Nhex, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:40 (eight years ago) link
it's definitely breathing on fumes but aren't we all
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:53 (eight years ago) link
It would have been interesting if, instead of making the lazy versions of character into distinct characters that take up roster space, you could "evolve" your 1 and 2 star characters into their 3/4/5 star versions Pokemon-style
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:57 (eight years ago) link
that would be awesome. maybe the champions thing will be a little like that?
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:58 (eight years ago) link
seems like it
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:58 (eight years ago) link
i think it will be, like "prestiging" your cards. i expect the cost will get exponentially high, like you need 50 covers or something to boost up another level. or, there will be a cap on how much you can prestige, like the 2*s can only go up to Level 166 or something
― Nhex, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 15:59 (eight years ago) link
If I can boost Juggernaut all the way to 270, lol
― you're breaking the NAP (DJP), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 16:01 (eight years ago) link
heh sadly only 2* or better
― Nhex, Tuesday, 5 January 2016 16:04 (eight years ago) link
yeah but given the # of 2 star covers they drop, that's no problem xp
I thought I saw that you'd be able to respec on the fly for your champions, which would be cool, especially for like Hood & Blade
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 5 January 2016 16:07 (eight years ago) link
Aw man, they've already broken the balance of the game, let's just go full-on hilarious
otoh I am looking forward to Iron Fist becoming even more of a screaming nightmare than he already is
