Withdrew application from Doctor Goons because I did not even attend medical school, let alone graduate. I applied to Worst Alliance as Choralone, instead because based on the name, that's where I belong - it is kismet.

I actually have 1029 of them without even getting to that stage yet. I didn't take any real shortcuts with the X-Men (one 3* ticket for Storm and the pre-event chips for Beast and Rogue) so I'm still farming Storm to 5* and will be for another week+. Along with Rogue, Beast, and the Daily Missions I imagine I might have 2000 by the time I'm done with this Storm mission.

You can only farm crystals from the veiled secret missions, which you can only run twice a day and each run drops like 5-10 crystals. And the converter in the lab lets you convery chaos norns to crystals too at a cost of 4 norns for 1 crystal, but you can't exactly convert tons of those every day either.

I mean, whatever. It took me 6 months to complete the Strange mission. Its called an Epic Mission for a reason. I don't need to speed through it. It gives me goals and bars to reach. It can't be worse than the Chaos Stone mission where it took forever just to be able to get a World Boss win.

I was just feeling really comfortable with my brilliant focus on hoarding shards and didn't even realize they were the wrong thing.

Nope but you can do the double world boss rifts for more, world boss ul;timate, and SL for another few hundred

It takes awhile. Once you get to the point where you can do 5 world boss wins most days it speeds up a ton. I went from collecting like 50-100 a week to 300 or so a week once I got a bunch of T2s and big gun T1s on my roster. The whole thing took me like 3 months but could have gone faster if I was more focused in leveling the right people up. You seem ahead of where I started.

So you just have to focus on getting as many daily WBRs as you can each day. So if you've got Sharon Rogers and Iron Fist build around them to try and make them 2 wins instead of 1. Then when you've done that work on a third winning team.

You're missing that you can do more than 1 run of world boss per day. If you can clear 5 world bosses and 5 world boss ultimates per day you can get about 80-100 per day from that, plus about 100-150 or so from Shadowland every week, plus things like the dimension rift event going on right now which adds another 25-30 per day as long as the event is up.

Basically with the addition of World Boss Ultimate you can now grind out almost enough T2 materials to T2 someone new every week without using a ticket, if you're dedicated on grinding and have enough 420 dudes lying around.

Yeah I'm just not quite at the point where I can clear the WB twice per day. I guess I just need to get my dudes higher up.

Someone mentioned Warwolf and Daisy? My WW is almost 20/20/20 should I work on Daisy?

Also it looks like Coulson puts in some work for WB is that the case?

Yeah I don't quite have enough of those dudes laying around.

Before I quit I got a bunch of guys to 60 but didn't do much with their gear.

Oh yeah is there a guide for the WB? Like which Character can solo which boss etc? I've had good luck so far with Lady Loki, Sharon, and magnet man being able to solo a boss here and there.

No dont

Warwold and Daisy you only really need at T1. They're literally only their for their buffs to your main character.

Warwold and Coulson both have pretty sick T2 passives, but those passives are only their to further buff your guys.

Do not bother significantly building up any of these 3 characters until you have a solid roster outside of them. You can get them to 6 stars and let them rot for months and they're going to provide the same value as if you had 420ed them.

Warwolf and Daisy are used for the buffs, you bring them out use Warwolf's 6* skill and Daisy's 3*, then a Big hitter comes out like Proxima with her 6* skill or IF with his 5* and hopefully the boss is dead, if not you wait for cooldowns and do it again.
Coulson is used for his amazing passive at T2.

I haven't bothered with stage 3 in a while, but looking at the rankings, 60 to 90ish seconds. I havent' completed them myself yet, I'm pretty sure those kills are due to luck aligning just so and not easily reproduced.

I was doing 70-90 second kills until I switched her obelisk from invincibility to a +180%dmg one and rolled her from IAAG to Overdrive. I'm still working on her uniform, leveling Deathlok's right now to boost her +all attacks (he also boosts the defense ignore slot for Strange's uni, which is a plus).
Otherwise it's just standard 3 5 4 2 3 5 4 2 etc. If you time the 3 to eat a oneshot attack and then proc the obi on her 4, she'll take off 1.5M+ hp with one shot :D

What bites my rear end is the Phoenix Feathers. Here's the stupid part.

I didn't buy the $70 X-Men pack. Waffled over it, but didn't. So now I've got Wolferine at all 17 gears (that use feathers instead of bios to level) stuck at level 55 and the epic quest stage where I need 1000 M'Krann Crystals.

I've got 385 M'Krann Crystals, and 1120 Phoenix Feathers. I'll have 2k feathers by the end of the week, and maybe 500 M'Krann Crystals. So because there's a cap on the number of feathers you can store, all the ones that I earn while I collect enough Crystals are just gonna get burned because I don't have anything to spend them on. I could use them to T2 someone, but I have tickets and if it do it naturally it's going to slow down progress on the epic quest because that also uses crystals. The Feathers are literally BAM, and the Crystals are Chaotic Norns, and they drop at the same disproportional rates.

I'd be totally cool with all this if they didn't cap the number of each thing you can hold.

I've tried it a few times, got my rear end kicked, and just walked away. I'm not really gonna bother until I have a stable of native T2s. Which isn't happening any time soon. I'm saving all my resources until Wolverine's done, which will be awhile. So the Black Order aren't getting any better.

I'm just sticking to getting more Level 60s for Shadowland. I've got Yellowjacket, White Tiger, Ant Man, Hyperion, and Bullseye the last week. I'll probably shift my Dimension focus to Wasp, and I don't know about Special and Story. Maybe an Inhuman just for something different. Probably Venom for story just because he's closest to done and all my options kind of suck now. Maybe Blade because I like him.
