I kinda want to just pick a regular forum poster...pull up the history...and disagree with everything they've ever posted

Doesn't it pop up a little label with who hit the button?

I just random boxed Rogue, I have no idea what I'm doing, and the build is ancient. Is she "not good"?

Also, is there a build for Punisher up yet? I didn't see one in the old thread.

She's a breeze to level. I wasn't a huge fan of her at 60, but my gear was significantly worse at the time so I should probably revisit gearing her out. I'm fairly certain she hasn't had much of an update build-wise though so whatevers in the build-list is probably serviceable.

I'm not sure why knowing about bugs is keeping them from testing achievements. It's certainly never stopped them before.

It's probably an overly beneficial bug. Like being able to complete the cheevo multiple times for the reward. Or the omega chest it grants is infinitely clickable.

edit: Or if you use the omega chest while at max omegas, it flips you back around to zero.

Is there some kind of shortlist for what low-effort heroes they could feasibly be releasing? Also, weren't there a bunch of mined taskmaster resources hinted at before it happened last time?

RosaParksOfDip
May 11, 2009
Yeah I figure Blade will come down the road as a proper release. Beast has been in the pipeline for ages and would be pretty simple as a melee bruiser, but he'd be kinda boring and not entirely sure they'd release another melee phys hero so soon. Nick Fury seems like a possibility since they were all jazzed to make him like a skellymancer but apparently that got shot down by Marvel? Maybe they got the go-ahead and just didn't say anything for this reason. Most likely it'll be Beast for low effort reasons, though. Or a team-up I guess would be a pretty safe bet.

Ugh, I'm seriously considering the $130 mega pack purely for the STASH tabs. I've got all the heroes there except 4(Gumbo, herman, dark leopard and ratchet and clank). Currently I only have 3 regular stashes, 1 crafter stash and like, 7 hero stashes(or however many came in the bad guy pack + hawkeye). This seems like an astoundingly dumb idea.

:siren: black widow and hawkeye reviews up next :siren:

edit: qol??? whatever we're calling it now

As far as skills go, I really hope hawkeye just gets a numbers bump and make his roll free.

Gear-wise I hope his boots get like, +2 all or something since +6 combat just buffs two of his passives right now. Full rework on his slot 5, give him an archery tree focused slot 1, bump goliath up from +1 to +2 and maybe give it something more, for his slot 3 take away the proc based crit rating and give him a consistent number. He already has pretty high crit rating so it doesn't have to be a huge number. I'm not even 100% sure the damage at close range thing works, but please take that away and give him something worthwhile. If it works I guess it's good for a WoA build but he's way too squishy for that poo poo. I dunno there are probably some better changes that could be made but I have no idea what reasonable expectations are anymore since their "item budget" is all over the place.

Cap America is already in the game tho :confused:

The QoL will replace all his skills with side rolls. With his new Ultimate being him shooting himself in the face and the game immediately swapping you out to a superior hero, like Taskmaster.

It'll be hawkeye's old ult except the arrows will arc around and shoot himself. Bonus if you have the ronin costume, he commits seppuku.

"We identified that a bug was making Iceman more powerful than intended, so we made him even better instead"

It's making him more powerful than intended, but not exactly outside the norm of what they're doing with new characters. It's giving him a reasonably competitive pet damage build.

Hulk should be the strongest hero in the game!



Why isn't this guy as strong as Hulk?

I honestly think Cap turned out better than Hulk. Hulk is cool with all the super flashy stuff and burst, but Cap comes out of the gate with smoother skill usage, cooldowns, and better defense.

I kept coming back to Cap. I'd level him 1 or 2 levels and just get frustrated with him and put him on the shelf for a while. I kept running out of spirit and he felt really squishy to me. I'm playing during this event and looking at what heroes I have and I look at cap again, he's at level 28. I figure his sig at 30 will help the spirit problems so I get him to 30 to try it. Well, his spirit management is much better now but I still run out sometimes. But everybody kept saying how nice and easy he is to level. I know airborne assault is a big part of his kit, but that doesn't unlock till 47, and levelling him feels like such a slog. So what's a dumb rear end idiot baby like me to do? Whale out on boosts of course! Did a handful of LQs and got Cap to 47. He still feels quite squishy but the kit feels very solid now with airborne assault. But I don't recall anyone else saying he was squishy.

I take a look at his powers again and reread all the tooltips to make sure I'm not missing something. Cap has a shield, after all. Is there some shield block button I need to be pressing or something?

Turns out I did miss something. I didn't put a god drat point in his loving defensive passive. *INTENSE FART SOUND* :downsbravo:

Yeah I was spared his pre-30 stuff by leveling him in midtown during a monday. Since the boxes scale with your level, you can just float around killing level 1 poo poo and open the boxes for gear/xp. I definitely recommend doing that for any potentially spirit hungry hero. Spirit doesn't matter when everything dies in one hit.

The worst part about that many goks, is you want to use them on that many characters, meaning needing three more good artis per gok.

There was a supergroup who spreadsheet their Kurse runs over a few weeks with different amount of RIF.
From memory the result were : over 1000 runs with no RIF, they would get 4 GOK on average, between 200 and 500% RIF it was 8 Gok but anything over 500% and it was only 2 GOK per 1000 runs.

Too many goks were going to be dropped at that sif/rif so gaz punished them for their hubris by halving the gok drops.
