So SS has a feature right now where that -300 power cosmic aura he has is removing 300 spirit from surrounding players. If this hits live for even a day I'm buying SS immediately and following people around midtown or doing endless x-def.

Good artists don't work in comics. They work in the real prestige industries like video games and selling furry commissions on Deviantart.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!


Also, does anyone else want the new M'Kraan crystal besides IM? I don't think it competes in terms of damage with things like Gungnir/Warlock's Eye/Savage Axe, but getting a survivability bump and +200 spirit isn't insubstantial. Also the proc could help some of the more spirit-starved dudes out as it's similar to a weak river of souls/pss effect on top of the damage.

Who else benefits from flat spirit? I'm tempted to say Cap because his sig restores a high percentage of his spirit on a long cooldown, but I'm really not coming up with anyone who particularly needs it.

They are working on Defender Tokens:

quote:

If you are playing on test center, please post here with the following info:

Which wave of X-Defense did you complete?

How many Defender tokens are in the final chest?

The only thing we want in this thread is that data, so we can confirm it's working perfectly.

Note:

We made the quest MUCH easier to complete and there are automatic tokens in every final chest, scaling with the wave you finished. No more randomness at all.

Thank you very much!

All of the hero packs that steam has are 50% off at the moment.

edit:

Hawkeye pack is $5

Loki, Cable, Spiderman, Wolverine, and Gambit packs are $10

Avengers Assemble (Cap, IM, Hulk, Ms. M) and X-Force (Cable, Wolverine, DP, Colossus) packs are $30.

I am tempted to buy Hawkeye just to see how disappointing he is compared to playing Taskmaster. :v:

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Hawkeye is $4.99. Loki, Spider-Man, Cable, Wolverine, Gambit $9.99. Avengers team pack $29.99 as is X-Force. It's possible but unlikely that they'll get discounted further during the sale, Marvel Heroes isn't likely to be a daily deal since its free.

EDIT: Beaten. Interesting that they move around who is available. I remember considering Cable during a sale last year, and I did buy Black Widow and I think maybe Jean Grey the sale before that. Loki and Gambit are there but none of the other new characters are. I still owe a friend nightcrawler if he is ever added.

It's disappointing to hear that Silver Surfer apparently is so micro–heavy to play. A character like hybrid Taskmaster features about as many buttons as I care to hit; anything beyond that I just can't be bothered with. :smith:

This is the thing stopping me from getting Dr. Strange. He looks like my kind of hero in terms of the abilities he uses, but from what I have seen you need to bind extra keys and poo poo to fully utilize him and it's just too much effort. :geno:

You can be an effective Strange utilizing only the regular action bar. That's what I do and it works in X-Def/Terminals/Holo. I can't speak for Cosmic Terminals/Raids though.
