The Hood is just that well written.

The annoying thing is that "guy with a cloak that lets him teleport anywhere" is already enough to make some interesting stories without also going ".....that is also an acrobatic badass crime boss who shoots magic bullets"

It just screams of "I couldn't think of anything interesting to do with a weak normaly guy that can warp anywhere, so I made him Skinny Kingpin"

The stat/tuning update is insane for a good number of skills now, after only 5m on the TC I've seen stuff like Vortex Grenade (loving finally), Savage Strike, Enervating Slash and Bo Beatdown to name a few getting ~ double the damage of live.

EDIT: Although apparently not Ghost Rider :| a lot of his abilities that needed huge buffs don't seem that different at first glance.

Welp, mumble people are saying Storm got pretty massively nerfed. Ball Lightning now has two components, the ball that hits whatever it moves through, and a tiny amount of damage done as AoE; Freezing Tempest go nerfed quite a bit; and Lightning Column got a slight DPS nerf.

How long will I have to wait for a playable Howard the Duck? Armed with Quack-Fu and a snub nose revolver.

Ryolnir in September of 2013: "I have a sweet Howard the Duck trading card in my car that I keep there for... I have no idea why I keep it there. I received it as a gift on the last day of my previous job.

Needless to say, Howard the Duck rocks. Howard for Marvel Heroes 2013."

Clearly the devs want him, so he's probably just trapped in a world he never made.

That thread by the way is the best collection of quit-threats I've ever seen on a game forum.

I kind of figured Storm would get nerfed in her 52 review, but I guess it didn't have to take that long. Guess I'll get in some good times while they last.

What build is everyone using for Loki? And does it take until 60 before he actually is good because I've been leveling a couple other characters and it feels like other players that are in my same level range are just making GBS threads out damage and I'm doing nothing.

Pages back, but this is how I'm building my Loki currently. Probably not the most 100% optimal build but it's pretty fun. Keep your illusions up while spamming permafrost/arcane binding from a slight distance. You can probably throw a couple extra points into cold snap (for lifesteal/extra dmg when following permafrost) or whatever passive armor you want.

Damage values are up across the board save a few exceptions. Certain heroes like Spider-man got massive damage boosts because almost all of his skills were tagged Fighting, plus the baseline buffs and stat buffs. The skills that were reduced in damage either obviously needed to be nerfed or were long cooldown sigs that had their damage offloaded to other skills. The nerfed skills include Ball Lightning, Freezing Tempest, Lightning Column, X-Slash, and Phoenix Inferno. The long cd sigs include One-Off, Aerial Assault. This is not a comprehensive list, I do not have most characters at level 60.

Cable's damage is up across the board. Loki's damage is up across the board. Cyclops' damage is up across the board. Scarlet Witch's damage is up across the board and bewildering hex still works fine as of the time of this posting.

Iron Man got buffed. Yeah.
