deimos posted:Deadpool's minigun should be an EMF like with longer time between the powerups (3/6 instead of 1/2) and he starts with a minigun which then sprouts more miniguns and for the 3rd power phase just sprouts missile pods and starts doing 150% extra damage with splash. I'm pretty sure that's not how guns work so even though I know it's not canon, as a rangepool player I absolutely am going to need this to ever make it to cosmic 60 on him. I recently got the anti-metal bullets unique which keeps up the enemies take 10% more damage proc, so I don't even need stink bomb anymore. I'm also still pretty far from being able to equip darkhold scroll, so I don't even need lil' deadpool most of the time. It really is just teleport and shoot. What I do like is I'm all kun lun and netharium so I try to shoot as close as possible, and omega points are great at cheaply buffing % damage to physical, ranged, ranged at close proximity and other stuff. So I'm getting used to this idea of spreading omegas around in the first few ranks instead of dumping them all into a power that looks good.

Because Stink Bomb is probably Vulnerability while the ammo is a different status effect that also increases damage taken by 10%.

I know nothing about Deadpool, but it might be a real bug. I saw somebody in General chat saying they heard that Stink Bomb and AMA stack, which was met with the "no vulnerabilities stack anymore" response, but seeing jubelio mention it makes it seem like an actual bug/occurence specifically with Deadpool.

jubelio posted:IIRC the anti-metal vuln stacks with the stink bomb vuln. This is not true, I tested it fairly extensively. Anti-metal does not stack with normal vulnerability, they are the same thing. Anti-metal is also not super reliable for applying it, it wasn't 100% uptime. I guess it is possible it is a Deadpool specific bug, but I'm not putting an AMA on Deadpool just to test again.

Patchnote [inprogress] https://forums.marvelheroes.com/discussion/comment/1518730#Comment_1518730 PATCH OVERVIEW This week’s patch focuses on some new content related to Guardians of the Galaxy, along with some solid back-end changes to game optimization, some bug-fixing and a few quality of life UI improvements. We hope you enjoy the patch, the weekend and Guardians of the Galaxy! WEEKEND EVENT - PLANET X GROOT BARK EXTENDED! By popular demand, we’re extending our Planet X Bark event to celebrate this week’s release of the new Marvel film, Guardians of the Galaxy! Collect Planet X Bark by completing each of the Shared Quests once per day and trade them in for exciting rewards such as the Mysterious Crimson Box! Additionally, to celebrate, we’ll be live tuning server-side RIF, SIF and XP to 50%! NEW HERO: STAR-LORD The Legendary Outlaw himself, Star-Lord, has arrived in Marvel Heroes! Peter Quill dual wields Kree submachine pistols, high tech grenades, orbital bombardments from his starship and also uses his trademark Element Gun to freeze, blast, and otherwise destroy his enemies. Star-Lord is a hero with many options and many builds. The possibility of Fire, Earth, Air and Water will likely take a few days to optimize and get used to, but look and feel very unique. Straight up twin auto-pistols is also an incredibly fun option and a focus on “Ship” powers is something to consider. NEW TEAM-UPS To celebrate the awesomeness of the Guardians of the Galaxy team, we have 3 new Team Up Heroes available. Drax Otherwise known as “The Destroyer”, Drax wields his trademark knives with brutal effectiveness - laying waste to enemies big and small with tremendous power and brutality. Gamora Gamora, or the “Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy”, can cut a swath through enemies near and far, using her broadsword and alien pistol to deal with any threat. Groot A member of the Guardians of the Galaxy and best friend to Rocket, Groot servers as a great option for heroes looking for a stalwart champion. Rocket Raccoon players can choose between having the Groot team-up with them if their power-based Groot is not actively in play, or vice-versa. It’s basically a decision between getting the passive benefits of the Groot team-up and using the Groot power or getting the passive benefits of the Groot power and having the Groot team-up active. ROCKET RACCOON DESIGN REVIEW Rocket Raccoon’s amazing level 52 review is here. For his review, Rocket receives: An amazing new Thanos-Buster mech suit to pilot. Several new guns to deal with different types of threats, including a Plasma Launcher and Photon Minigun A new signature power, the H7 Fleetslayer tactical nuclear launcher. A new Specialization option - Assault or Battery specialization which will buff your Guns or Turrets depending on your preferred playstyle Groot is now permanent, with the ability to direct him to charge specific locations. Blaster Turrets now receive an attack speed buff when deployed, allowing for more dynamic "move and deploy" gameplay as desired. A new dash power has been added, with a high level of speed and responsiveness. Rocket's Uniques items have been adjusted to match his new powers and Amthua is working on several interesting new unique items for different types of Rocket players Rocket's new movie costume is available, complete with an extremely detailed Rocket and Groot modeling job and voice. UI CHANGES Now available in the Options Menu (under Graphics), players can scale their UI to better fit their preference. This feature will be adjusted and likely expanded in the coming weeks and months. Post any feedback or request in the UI Bugs and Feedback thread, which the UI team monitors very closely. Items will now show their icon in their tooltip on the top left. This should help identify items a little quicker and more easily. LOGIN REWARDS The Login Reward system has been pretty cool and we’re looking to fill in every day with something and continue to adding more interesting stuff for some of the bigger days. With that in mind, we’ve filled in the 5 and 7 gaps this week. Login Rewards have been added for days 15, 25, 35, 45 (and ongoing every 10 days). Login Rewards have been added for days 17, 27, 37, 47 (and ongoing every 10 days). Players who are past those dates may receive a bonus Matrix of Unbinding and Eye of Demonfire by logging in anytime Saturday if they wish. MUSPELHEIM RAID The “Green” version of the Muspelheim Raid has been launched and is available for all players. This is currently the most challenging content in the game and will require a reasonable amount of strategy and tactics to complete, along with a reasonable knowledge of itemization and power This image has been resized to fit in the page. Click to enlarge. OMEGA SYSTEM As we head into the final week of the Omega System Live Beta, power points have been refunded so players can explore new builds if desired. Anytime there are significant changes in any Omega node, even out of power, a free reset will be provided. Next week's focus will be cleaning up any remaining nodes with incorrect tuning and focusing on the least-used nodes to ensure they offer attractive mechanics. NEW CRAFTING FEATURE - ITEM GRADE INCREASE Using Eye of Demonfire, which can be collected from playing the Green version of the Muspelheim Raid, doing Shared Quests, and defeating Man-Ape once per day, players can purchase recipes to allow them to upgrade the Item Grade of their gear slots, improving their overall stat rolls beyond what was previously possible. The system currently allows you to trade Eyes of Demonfire for new recipes for your Crafter. Those recipes can be used, with a very minimal credit cost, to increase gear slot items from Item Grade 63 (most gear in the game right now) to Item Grade 66. We’ve kept the cost of upgrading the item itself almost free to be very friendly towards players with many heroes and to make it a “no-brainer” to upgrade items that you like and not feel bad about it. The Item Grade crafting recipes may be purchased from Hogun, in Asgard. A recipe exists for each Gear Slot (1-5), with different prices on each. Gear slot 1 is the most expensive crafting recipe. When the “Red” version of the Muspelheim Raid Zone is released, another recipe will be available, using an upcoming Heart of Demonfire, that allows you to upgrade to Item Grade 69 and eventually 72, 75 (and so on) will be available in the coming months and years. We will be posting a more extensive FAQ on this system sometime in the coming week. OPTIMIZATION This update features major changes to how the game processes certain aspects of data, including how data it transmitted to you and players around you. This will result in a decent improvement to server performance as well as client performance, depending on your exact system specs, CPU and GPU. This won't solve every issue for every player, so please make sure to always use upgraded video drivers and visit the tech support section for a lot of tricks and settings to make your game run as smooth as possible In general, optimization of Marvel Heroes 2015 is a very important part of our development and it’s something that we are always dedicating time to with a dedicated cross-functional team (engineers, artists, server tech and designers). Squirrel Girl gets her own call out in this section: We’ve optimized her squirrels significantly by removing many bones from their skeletons and optimizing their animations. You will see no physical changes to the squirrels (they weren’t using those bones), but you will definitely feel it when you are playing Squirrel Girl in crowded areas or there is a Squirrel Girl fighting beside you. We’re going to keep an eye on her and see what else we need to do to keep Doreen working great in the coming weeks. BUG FIXES Various bug fixes have been completed over the last month and will be included in this patch. This section of the notes will definitely be incomplete as not every bug fix gets communicated, but we’ll add whatever we can to this list and we will be pleasantly surprised when something unexpected is found to be working properly now. For now, here are some recent bug fixes completed in the internal tracking system: Rocket Raccoon’s My Friend Groot summon AI should now react to enemies quicker and more reliably. Loki’s Frost Giant Form Summon has had its tooltip corrected to show a 30 second duration. The actual duration has always been 30 seconds, but the tooltip had been showing 45 seconds for awhile. An extra phantom Wolverine should no longer fly through the air when Colossus uses Fastball Special. Players can no longer drop items in unwalkable terrain in Avengers Tower. The list is probably 5 times as long as this and we definitely want to encourage everyone to keep posting any bugs you find in the appropriate bug section in the forums so they can get picked up in the morning review by each development team within the studio. KNOWN ISSUES Star-Lord’s Close Quarters has an issue where the cooldown occasionally “resets”, and additionally plays a fifth animation despite only attacking four times. Rocket and Star-Lord have had a great week or testing and iteration based on feedback. They will likely have several bugs to deal with and improvements based on data and feedback collected over the weekend. We’ll be playing both of these guys over the weekend (hopefully twerking free) and we hope you guys enjoy them. The fun factor is high with both of these guys. I'm sure we'll find more stuff in the next few hours and we'll keep this section updated and resolve any problems quickly for next week's patch. IN DEVELOPMENT Currency Tab (releasing in 8-10 weeks) Rogue (releasing in late August or early September) She-Hulk Team-Up Wasp Team-Up Endless Dungeon releasing in late summer) Bronx Zoo One-Shot Story (releasing in 4-6 weeks) “Red” Raid Difficulty (releasing in 3-4 weeks) A couple more ways to acquire Eyes (and Hearts) of Demonfire outside of Raids Dual Spec UI Feature (releasing in September) Achievements System (testing in 6 weeks, releasing in 8-10 weeks) Special CoSmiC Event later in August The internal list is about 20 times as long as that, but those are the most exciting elements.
