Level 9 She-Hulk (Stomp unlocked) paired with level 6 Hawkeye (Trick Shot unlocked) is a pretty mean combo, since She-Hulk can do Stomp as many times as she likes and she does extra damage, alternately with her Motion Granite and Hawkeye's Trick Shot you can potentially keep at least one enemy stunned every round if you stagger their usage.quote:Captain America is nice but not amazing until level 9. After level 9, he's probably the best character in the game; he causes the entire enemy team to beat themselves to death on his shield while the rest of your team picks them off at your leasure. Also, fun "bug" for PVP - if you've got an Avenger costume on the field and the enemy team has two, both you AND your opponent will end up getting Cooperative Defense because I guess the game has problems differentiating between the two teams when assigning that bonus. I've won more than a few rounds lately because my opponent had Cooperative Defense and my Avengers Black Widow got to benefit from it and it saved my rear end.

I don't have Cap so I can't say what happens, but how does the game pick who goes first in PVP if both players field a Cap? Flip a coin? For that matter, is there any rhyme or reason to the hero turn order in combat, PVP or otherwise? I mean I've gotten hosed a few times in PVP if I'm fielding She-Hulk and Hawkeye - my stun-stomp strategy I mentioned doesn't work if She-Hulk and Hawkeye go back to back in that order, because Hawkeye can stun someone and by the time She-Hulk's turn comes back around they're not stunned anymore (and can't be stunned by her Motion Granite due to recovery immunity).

rotinaj posted:This game is oddly fascinating. I added a buncha people on facebook. /kevin.cavallaro is my facebook page. Everybody else has little nicknames for theirs. 1. give Shield points as Gifts, which prompts your allies to "return the favor" and give one back. You can accept up to 50 gifts a day, and you can pick which ones you want to accept. I was banking Shield points and Energy points and I've got a huge surplus, now I'm banking Unstable ISO-8s for the Spec Ops missions. 2. click the + button next to the Shield point counter on your HUD in the upper-right, which prompts you to request Shield points from your allies 3. Visit your Allies on their maps (click their name in the Allies bar at the bottom, select Visit) and click on their stuff. You'll get +3 Shield points per ally per day this way. Being low on Shield points is a serious game-crippler when you're first starting out, but if you've got a reasonable number of allies then you'll have a constant stream of them. I've got 600+ Shield points right now.

Soonmot posted:Level 4 is the highest level so far. Shorter missions give more money/xp. If I'm going to be around the computer, I set my heroes to 20 minute missions, same silver gain as 10 minute ones and only slightly less XP. When your heroes hit level 12, you'll be bringing a +90% bonus to those missions as well.

Sefer posted:This gets better when you get allies, so accept friend requests and add everyone you can. You can request energy and shield points as gifts with the + signs next to each, I know I always fulfill any requests I see in my inbox. Also does anyone know when/how to get the next Generalist suit? Like my research queue is chock-full of stuff I can research to get higher-tier specialist suits, but I'm wondering about the next Generalist one. Edit-- also for those running low on energy/Shield points/whatever, remember that you can request gifts from allies multiple times, so by all means spam that "request gift" button and I'll gift them to you. Just remember that you can only accept 50 gifts a day.

Playdom is also owned by Disney (hence why they did the Avengers game, since Disney owns Marvel) so they can probably get consistently good production values. Having said that, Avengers Alliance is currently "down for maintenance".

Nah, research should unlock as you progress. You'll get a notification that you can start researching stuff, and it'll give you a really simple tutorial on how to research.

Don't spend gold on weapons either, they'll just become obsolete as you level up and unlock other gold-only weapons. Literally the only thing I spend gold on is Command Points. Edit-- having said that I've gotten my rear end kicked by the Heavy Ion Beam (a gold-only weapon) in PVP pretty consistently. I'd love to get one, but I'm 100% sure they're going to nerf it at some point because it's so broken, and as mentioned it'll just become obsolete as I level up.

Widow's ability where she debuffs enemies is pretty handy - if you've got Hulk doing his "hulk up" thing, hit him with that ability and it resets his hulk-meter to nothing.

I like Iron Man - his Deflector Shield is kinda useless but his Unibeam is pretty sweet, and even his basic Repulsor does pretty solid damage for his lowest-level attack. Also I just fought someone in PVP who had +21000 attack and +12000 defense. That's not a typo. TWENTY ONE THOUSAND and TWELVE THOUSAND. And I thought I was pretty hot poo poo with my +4000/+3000.
