I kept reporting all the loving creeps in the IW feedback thread for saying poo poo like 'NO BOOTY'. Unfortunately it got the thread deleted and all the useful posts gone. At least they realised she needed more testing time.

If I play as Hulk with Spider-Woman, can I make a sandwich? (I hope some of these Team-Up heroes do actually become playable.)

Calling it now, by the end of 2014 you'll: 1) be controlling 3 characters at once, each with their own inventory 2) have six main slots for gear, 8 artifacts, 2 legendaries, 4 rings 3) have 2 active team ups with 12 slots each for gear 4) have 72 runes to collect to deal with the 21 new runewords which all do more or less the same thing 5) have 14 new purchasable stash tabs 6) rings now must go in general stash tab, no more single hero tab 7) any-hero uniques must now go in general stash tabs 8) Runes must now go in a rune stash tab

Squirrel Girl's Brand New Build So Squirrel Girl got reworked and she's really strong now. Her AoE options are lacking but you won't find a better boss-killer. Here's a build I figured out for her:  Pictured: my current build. Yours may vary. Max Basic: Melee likes Savage Swipe (very strong at max squirrels, costs no spirit), Ranged likes Squirrel! (worse single-target but better for groups, restores spirit on hit), but choose one. Not enough points for both. Max Spirit Spender: Squirrelpocalypse for ranged (strong damage, bleed alone deals more damage than DFFT, no cooldown) or Dive Bomb (high damage, AoE, moves you) for melee. Max Squirrel Powers: Squirrel Friends, Squirrel Special Forces. Use off cooldown, keep Squirrels up and buffed. Point Dumps: Squirrel Cunning (crit is good yo), Hulkbuster Squirrels (strong and scales well with points) 1-pointers: Squirrel Distraction, for defense. Get gear to boost it. Sic Em? Maybe? If you feel you need more direct squirrel control. The most important thing here is Death From The Trees is bad, do not use it. People are addicted to that goddamn power and it's garbage compared to Squirrelpocalypse, which deals more damage over time with it's bleed than DFFT does and deals a large amount of upfront damage as well. I am convinced that Savage Swipe is going to outdamage any of her ranged options pretty easily, but if you want to go full ranged instead of having any melee you can swap it out for Squirrel!, which will keep your spirit reserves higher and remove you from any bad melee situations.' Nutcracker could be an option for Melee heroes instead of Dive Bomb if you want to forsake all AoE and just go single-target. It's strong but it can eat spirit quickly. Her Ultimate power is also now ungodly strong, make sure to use it on bosses or when things go south in X-Def. It can matter a lot so don't waste it. Keep in mind that this is all based off of one night of test server experimentation and will probably change later. Sea Lily fucked around with this message at 07:52 on Apr 25, 2014 |

Just bought SG in anticipation. I've had the Aviator costume for ages from smashing and I've been saving it for this. edit: BW is kinda hilarious with the permastealth and tauntlocking bosses with Timed Explosive. Here's what I'm gravitating to: MAX: RRR Sweepkick (vulnerability, knockdown, 360 aoe for trash) Deadly Blade CDG Timed Explosive Drones 1 point: Signature Dump: Silent Killer Kevlar Reinforcement gained from Slot 2.

Will my pet-boosting gear be of any relevance with the new SG or are her squirrels still just around to boost her other powers pretty much?

Lemon Curdistan posted:Unless they've changed it, her squirrels proc the Neptune's Trident procs, so that's at least worth considering. Yeah, I run Trident on her. The crit rating helps too. You want your squirrels boosted as much as possible, and then a healthy amount of crit and brutal rating on top of that to make them deal even more damage. However you build Squirrel Girl, most of her damage is going to be coming from her squirrels, and now that they've buffed squirrel damage by like 200% what it used to be, pet items are even stronger on her. It's a good idea to get both Latverian Regalias, a Raptor Stone, Sinister Medallion, Trask Commander Helm, and then the pet damage legendary and blessings. And an Int core on your costume, since that adds pet damage now too. Then you want to get as much crit and brutal as you can from other slots. Damage Rating is just not something SG has much room for, but you should end up with a pretty healthy Crit Damage Rating value and she herself will do good damage via that.

New DffT isn't bad at all. Its damage got reduced a lot but it's also fire and forget area damage that ticks while you're doing other poo poo now; it's effectively SGs Tear Gas Arrow/Jungle Snare. It's also a one - button ticket to near-instant max squirrels. Fantastic for opening combat. Soothing Vapors fucked around with this message at 12:20 on Apr 25, 2014 |

Here's the ranged SG build I'm going to be using at first. I'm sure it'll change as I get more comfortable with the patch, but it's a great starting place. Max: Squirrelpocalypse Autofire Acorns Hulkbuster Squirrels Squirrel Distraction Squirrel Friends Squirrel Cunning Point Dump: Death from the Trees (I'm already tempted to take 10 out of Squirrel Distraction to beef this up a bit, since the squirrel-based dodge bonus is static and I'm having zero survivability issues.) One-Point Wonders: Sic Em Squirrel Heart Squirrel Special Forces Squirrel! (auto point) Medal: Doc Ock (primarily because I had a spare cosmic, not married to this) Gear: Death Seed, Doc Ock Arms, SG Belt, SG non-bow foot unique, SG cards Artifacts: Pym's (might get rid of this), ACCC, AMA, Zigg Legendary: Gungnir Relic: Lemuria Runeword: RotS on Phys Damage (may change this) Teamup: Magik set to pure passive Blessings: Helas Absolutely destroying cosmics with this on TC. It's awesome. Not sure I need Pym's anymore; RotS + spirit restore from Squirrels may be enough sustain. Needs more testing. Soothing Vapors fucked around with this message at 13:06 on Apr 25, 2014 |

Soothing Vapors posted:Here's the ranged SG build I'm going to be using at first. I'm sure it'll change as I get more comfortable with the patch, but it's a great starting place. This seems like a reasonably solid build. I think she's got a lot of options right now, and haven't really dug into builds that aren't basically 100% summon-gear-focused, since that's my horrible obsession on the character. You should give the Tippy Toe Bow a shot instead of the Squirrel-A-Gig, though(assuming you can get one). SAG has some attractive stats on it but Tippy Toe does monstrous amounts of damage and is buffed by Special Forces and other squirrel-affecting powers. I'd be curious if you end up thinking the pet's damage outweighs the loss of the SAG stats. I haven't had one of them at 60 in a while so I can't check it out myself. For pure pet builds, Tippy Toe is the clear choice, but for more Doreen-Damage focused ones like that it might not work out the same way. I think it'll be a week or two before people really hammer out the most optimal build for her.

HarryTasker said yesterday or the day before that is supposed to be a new crafting feature and should have been removed from the build, but perhaps it wasn't. Yes, we are going to be able to craft attributes onto our gear in the very near future. That's what you are "seeing" on those BW and Any Hero Uniques.

I wish they'd focus team-ups more on the really fun characters that would never be feasible as playable characters but you'd still want to adventure with-- Kosmo the space dog, Fat Cobra, or the Warriors Three (as a single team up character!), more than "support role" people like Clea. That being said, definitely picking up Beta Ray Bill when he comes out.
