btw Nova vs FalCap was laughably easy for me with a lvl 188 0/4/4 Nova (+2 all, +2 r/y, +2 b/g). I just threw out strike tiles and prioritized red until FalCap cast yellow, then prioritized matching shields. Ended with something like 4K health left and FalCap never got to cast his nuke.

yeah I just did it too, without boosts even. My Nova is 1-4-1, maybe level 120? drew a Miles Morales which is fine, another champ level, at l276 now.
― droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 1 February 2017 17:59 (nine years ago)
I got a champ level for Jean, putting her at 273.
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Wednesday, 1 February 2017 18:02 (nine years ago)
Jean rules.
I drew a green Iceman earlier on command points, 4-3-1 now, still a ways away but closing in finally

Hey just so you guys know, 4* Carol Danvers isn't in Heroic or Legendary tokens yet -- she'll be included at the start of next season (like a week away), which is why I've stopped opening them.
― Virginia Worf (Leee), Wednesday, 1 February 2017 19:55 (nine years ago)
And FWIW, my Nova is now 5/5/3 (thanks to a daily resupply plus splurging on the current taco vault), but he's only at 94 (his Crash is still easy). I'm not going champ him yet because my Rulk is 5/2/5 with a purple in the queue, so I'm saving up my ISO for youuuuuuuu.
― Virginia Worf (Leee), Wednesday, 1 February 2017 19:57 (nine years ago)
I'm so far from having all the 4 stars I want that I draw legendaries as soon as I have them.
― droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 1 February 2017 20:07 (nine years ago)
I have lots of undercovered nigh-useless 4*s on the roster
― Nhex, Wednesday, 1 February 2017 20:59 (nine years ago)
i have (14) rostered 4*'s that only have one cover ea
― Mordy, Wednesday, 1 February 2017 22:04 (nine years ago)
but i figure you've gotta have them to build them so
got enough iso to champ 2 more 3*'s. which two of the following: gamora (1 xtra cover), daken (1), spider-man (1), doc oc (1), bullseye (2), rocket & groot (2), and cpt marvel (4)
i'm leaning towards cpt marvel and... rocket & groot maybe?
in addition to those my remaining 3*s that i don't have any extra covers lying around for - mystique, psylocke, punisher are all at 13 covers. deadpool, squirrel girl, sam wilson, are at 11. luke cage is at 10, thanos is at 9, iron fist is at 8, beast is at 7 and dr strange is at 6. i don't have cyclops or ragnarok rostered. beast i rostered super late so that makes sense it's so low and dr strange and thanos are both recently introduced. any idea why luke cage and iron fist (especially!) are so low? i'm pretty sure i've been collecting them about as long as my others... do they purposely have a lower drop rate or on the schedule less frequently or something?
― Mordy, Saturday, 4 February 2017 01:50 (nine years ago)
re: your lack of Cage and Fist, it's just the caprices of luck, and you've had some bad.
I think the ILX consensus pick would be R&G. His blue strikes are nasty, and he has a true heal that's bailed me out a number of times in the past. Beyond that, it'll come down to your preference. I use Bullseye every day in the Big Enchilada (trying to fill the board with strikes is a diverting challenge), and I also use Daken on easier PVE missions or when I need to spam out strike tiles quickly (like against Hood). Either of these guys also has a 2* counterpart, so that you'd be able to get their 3* covers.
― Virginia Worf (Leee), Saturday, 4 February 2017 02:24 (nine years ago)
Also - is it possible to participate in cap and im? Bc it looks like it is? Are we just concentrating on one?
― Mordy, Saturday, 4 February 2017 02:28 (nine years ago)
do Iron Man
also Rocket & Groot is what you want
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Saturday, 4 February 2017 05:41 (nine years ago)
I had to wait forever for fist, but once I got him fully covered they just kept coming.
Cage took even longer.
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Saturday, 4 February 2017 05:42 (nine years ago)
yeah R&G by a mile, his blue + yellow healing is killer
― Nhex, Saturday, 4 February 2017 10:33 (nine years ago)
lol I still don't even have R+G rostered
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Saturday, 4 February 2017 19:48 (nine years ago)
This took me 20 minutes to beat:

So if you see a team of OML, IW, and Howard, please skip.
― Virginia Worf (Leee), Monday, 6 February 2017 01:00 (nine years ago)
i was hoping we'd hit the 2nd rulk at least :/ guild not active enough imo!
― Mordy, Monday, 6 February 2017 01:50 (nine years ago)
I now have two purple Rulk covers that I will eventually have to sell because I can't get the other colors fast enough
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Monday, 6 February 2017 12:39 (nine years ago)
I switched alliances for the civil war (might stay there?) and got 3 Rhulk covers and 3 Spiderwoman covers for progression: we balled super hard. event tokens were nice too. now my Rhulk is 3-5-5 and ready for champing. recently drew the last Cho cover I need for champing too. champed Flaptain the other day & he is fun with OML. 11 champed 4 stars now.
― droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 6 February 2017 16:04 (nine years ago)
that sounds amazing; are they looking for any new members?
― Mordy, Monday, 6 February 2017 16:10 (nine years ago)
the place to look is on the forum's alliance recruiting page (can link if you like). this alliance was looking for a merc for the civil war, & I bit. my roster is really taking off & I can punch hard now (5 star scaling hasn't really hit me yet since my highest is a 360 OML).
― droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 6 February 2017 16:14 (nine years ago)
I have to admit that I've been considering scanning that forum page
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Monday, 6 February 2017 16:17 (nine years ago)
we'll always have ILG for support
my one warning if you're gonna join another alliance: try to avoid one that requires you use the dumb Line chat app. it's just a hassle.
― droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 6 February 2017 17:02 (nine years ago)
They're buffing Mr. Fantastic and "buffing" 3* Falcon.

Bird Strike was generally useless to me so i guess that's a buff

are these super lightning rounds new? they're pretty cool - only like 20 ppl in them. i just finished #1 overall in one and scored 2 Fight and Flight tokens. (sadly got nothing too special out of them)
― Mordy, Wednesday, 8 February 2017 03:34 (nine years ago)
They had them way back in the day, they're so old they're new.

just staying in the top 100 for the The Hunt: Florida is requiring a herculean amount of grinding - i'm currently ranked #78 and i've practically had to clear the entire Hunt progression to get there.

^^^ this, although I went for it in the recent Civil War event.
― Vernon Locke, Thursday, 9 February 2017 22:13 (nine years ago)
I really hate that I keep forgetting that doing the last mission in the Dr Strange sub-events closes the event off to you
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:13 (nine years ago)
It shouldn't
― Mordy, Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:14 (nine years ago)
I was in the Maggia sub-event, did my 4 clears on all of the other nodes except the Mordo one (because I don't have him) (bite me, RNG), did the last single-play node, got booted back out to the boss fight/sub-event screen with the Maggia node marked as completed.
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:18 (nine years ago)
The node but return to the main PVE page and you should still be able to access
― Mordy, Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:23 (nine years ago)
My point is that I still had clears in the Maggia node I wanted to do later tonight closer to expiration time and I inadvertently locked myself out of it.
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:25 (nine years ago)
I can still access mine and I did the final boss
― Mordy, Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:26 (nine years ago)

never mind

champed my red hulk yesterday, that's my 12th 4 star champed. he is amazing, a tank that steals and self-propels toward a big team blast. I had an extra cover so I got a LT & drew an Iceman! now 4-4-1. getting closer...
also drew another 4 Cyclops cover, at 5-4-3 now. I'm thinking about buying the last cover for 120cp, since he's a top 3 4 star.
took my 3 Strange to 153 today, at 2-5-5, thinking about spending 20cp to get the last cover so that I can champ and then use the extra yellows I'm getting in the PVE. it'll be another LT. & he seems legit strong, with that yellow in particular, even for a 3 star.
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:34 (nine years ago)
Dr Strange is a BEAST, I love him
I've been running OML/Falcap/3Strange and just annihilating goon nodes simply by putting out strike tiles and then tanking with OML. When I want to start buffing, I burn yellow on Falcap's shields and then start matching blue, which both makes me invulnerable and makes the strikes that much scarier and Strange's passive that much stronger. It's glorious, I just wish we could have 4 characters selected so I could put 4* Captain Marvel in there, too.
― ornate orchestral arrangements (DJP), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:38 (nine years ago)
yeah 4 Cap Marvel seems amazing, but I only have 1 cover of her so far.
I have drawn a dumb number of Spider Woman covers lately, can take her to 250 now, but she doesn't seem amazing to me.
I need ISO so badly right now, it's a good thing buying it with real ca$h is so absurdly overpriced
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:42 (nine years ago)
also yeah I champed Falcap and he's so fun, especially buffed, and especially especially when OML tanks for him. OML + Falcap + IW is a NICE team.
― droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 14 February 2017 17:43 (nine years ago)
Spider Woman is getting a lot of PvE love on the forums for her black ability, which I have to say is pretty great even when undercovered.
