Is it worth hanging on to maxed 2-stars that you don't use for the Deadpool node (i.e. in case they show up as required characters in a PVE)?
― Vernon Locke, Thursday, 30 July 2015 02:18 (ten years ago)
I love to wreck higher leveled teams in Simulator with my 166 Patch, 140-ish Loki and 130-ish Beast. Too many 3*s on the roster to max out...
Still stand by never ever deleting characters for roster space, even the crappy 1*s

― Nhex, Thursday, 30 July 2015 03:34 (ten years ago)

― Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Thursday, 30 July 2015 03:37 (ten years ago)
gotcha. ok.
― Nhex, Thursday, 30 July 2015 03:39 (ten years ago)
Likewise. Travelling and have spotty access to wifi.

Is my old account still part of the alliance? (milosz, I think?) I've gotten back into playing but couldn't recover that account.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Thursday, 30 July 2015 16:52 (ten years ago)
<noob>so how long does it take for the big picture to come into focus? i'm doing SHIELD matches and beating up on juggernaut/daken but i still have no actual idea what i should be doing</noob>
― resulting post (rogermexico.), Friday, 31 July 2015 02:43 (ten years ago)
i am literally playing the game right now and i'm unsure how to answer that
― let's not get too excited w/ the ouches (forksclovetofu), Friday, 31 July 2015 02:44 (ten years ago)
just get covers and levels, you just get better at it. and hit the roster slot paywall p quickly iirc
― droit au butt (Euler), Friday, 31 July 2015 03:15 (ten years ago)
already hit lol. it doesn't help that i blew some units thinking the tutorial was directing me to spend them on a powers upgrade. away we go...
― resulting post (rogermexico.), Friday, 31 July 2015 03:20 (ten years ago)
ime one $5 hit is all you need
― droit au butt (Euler), Friday, 31 July 2015 03:31 (ten years ago)
yeah it's basically a zen exercise; play game, get ISO and hero points, spend them in game, repeat
Avoid putting actual money into the game for as long as you can and hoard your hero points for slots for new covers. The daily awards will help you fill out your roster and give occasional boosts of resources that will help you make your roster stronger.

I'm having computer problems and might miss a few more days.
― aaaaablnnn (abanana), Friday, 31 July 2015 17:51 (ten years ago)
milo - you were in the old alliance that we disbanded. current one is ILX-Statix but we're full right now
abanana - what is your MPQ name?
― Nhex, Friday, 31 July 2015 17:57 (ten years ago)
OzBoz
― aaaaablnnn (abanana), Friday, 31 July 2015 18:06 (ten years ago)
thanks. (nb in the future, if anyone is taking a temporary break just let me know here and include your MPQ name cuz half of you use different names I'm not gonna remember what is who is what)
probably gonna cut "Allen Goodman" and "fisher12" soon for roger and milo if he wants a slot in the new alliance
― Nhex, Friday, 31 July 2015 18:24 (ten years ago)
Allen Goodman = etaeoe, btw
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Friday, 31 July 2015 18:26 (ten years ago)
ah, thanks. he hasn't played in a few weeks; if he posts here i'll let him stay on but otherwise i'll kick soon
― Nhex, Friday, 31 July 2015 18:32 (ten years ago)
Totes, I'll keep checking the thread in case a spot opens up.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Saturday, 1 August 2015 17:52 (ten years ago)
Am I correct that they're adding a new 1* character?
― :wq (Leee), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 22:04 (ten years ago)
FINALLY
― let's not get too excited w/ the ouches (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 22:15 (ten years ago)
hope it's spider ham

In other news, I finished covering my Falcon at 5/5/3 earlier this week, and I pulled a purple Scarlet Witch from a standard token today.
― :wq (Leee), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 22:17 (ten years ago)
My XF Wolverine is finally at level 270. 19 maxed 3*s. sigh.
― aaaaablnnn (abanana), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 01:14 (ten years ago)
damnnnnn yo!
― Nhex, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 01:51 (ten years ago)
finally getting the hang of this thing. what's the conventional wisdom on selling unused 1*?
― resulting post (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:00 (ten years ago)
KEEP EVERYTHING ARE YOU INSANE
― let's not get too excited w/ the ouches (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:02 (ten years ago)
Sell Yelena and Venom whenever you want. Once you start maxing 2*s you can toss every 1* except Juggernaut.
― aaaaablnnn (abanana), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:05 (ten years ago)
DON'T LISTEN TO THE BAD MAN LEAVE THEM IN THE BAG THEY'LL BE WORTH MILLIONS SOME DAY
― let's not get too excited w/ the ouches (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:11 (ten years ago)
listen to the forksp.s. you need at least three for Deadpool daily anywaybut i will never let any of them go.... NEVER
― Nhex, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:18 (ten years ago)
lol forks
btw afaict puzzle quest is a chill-out room compared to the Contest grind. assume that will change once I join our high-pressure alliance.
abanana that seems to be where I'm at. unless there's some mystery mission down the line where they're required I'd just as soon dump yelena/venom covers. won't sell anyone I've actually leveled just yet...
― resulting post (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 02:20 (ten years ago)
i've been doing deadpool daily w/ 2, i presume you can probably do it w/ 1 as well!
― Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 05:09 (ten years ago)
I knock over the 1* node with Juggernaut alone, easily.
― Vernon Locke, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 09:43 (ten years ago)
I played a little on release, but then found myself hiding in the toilet, lying to my then-girlfriend about what I was doing etc etc so I stopped.
I took it up again about three months ago as a brain-deadener in the run-up to our wedding. Worked very effectively.
I'm back to toilet/lying, but I'm too invested now.
I sold yelena and venom.
― woof, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 09:55 (ten years ago)
If I was a dev on this, I'd be tempted to make Bagman and Yelena overpowered just to reward everyone who held onto them for no rational reason
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 12:50 (ten years ago)
even in balance of power those two are ass
― droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 14:17 (ten years ago)
it'd take like ten minutes to get a full yelena for most people anyway. make it bagman so at least there's a little resistance
― Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 14:40 (ten years ago)
argh I'm stuck w/out Jean Grey
― resulting post (rogermexico.), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 15:03 (ten years ago)
I got one of those
― woof, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 15:13 (ten years ago)
Still missing Doc ock and vision ... and carnage, elektra, hulkbuster, kingpin, thing and jean. But six open slots!
― let's not get too excited w/ the ouches (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 15:41 (ten years ago)
Don't worry, I never get these new 4* characters.
― :wq (Leee), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:01 (ten years ago)
I got Jean Grey ^_^
still no Cyclops though ^_^ ^_^ (Cyclops is a dick btw)
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:02 (ten years ago)
the effort it takes to win those 4*s in the introductory PvEs is maddening - you gotta put in several hours of play each day for like 10 or more days straight. can't always manage to do it, and sometimes you're better off just hoping you'll get one from a gold token
― Nhex, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:07 (ten years ago)
I have cover maxed a bunch of characters and need to figure out my ISO priorities. So far I have maxed out the following ***s:
Steve RogersFalconIM40Classic MagsClassic SpideyHood
I have full covers for:
Hulk (153)GSBW (143)Loki (141)Psylocke (135)Colossus (121)Beast (69) (lol)
I've been leveling Psylocke because as a buffed character she is super silly, especially when paired with Falcon; should I keep leveling her when the Jean Grey event starts or should I go back to boosting Loki?
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:08 (ten years ago)
Beast is an awesome third teammate for the classic Loki/Patch combo btw since he covers blue and yellow well
Feel like Hulk and GSBW are better bets since they're more useful all-around; especially since you already have maxed Spidey, GSBW complements him very well. Shame they added that 30AP limit because before that you could just store up multiple Sniper Shots...
Hulk does well on any team that doesn't rely on strike/defense tiles. You won't regret lvling him or Psylocke as blue chippers
― Nhex, Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:13 (ten years ago)
my lol was entirely for 69, not Beast himself
― I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:16 (ten years ago)
Some of the more hardcore players like to pair Hulk with Patch so that BR's enemy tiles will help trigger Anger, leading to (potentially) heavy cascades.
― :wq (Leee), Wednesday, 5 August 2015 16:16 (ten years ago)
oh man, imagining multiple Sniper Shots without shaking/cascading and wau
