Ah, I thought it might be per reset. Never did SL before. Oh well, wouldn't harm to keep it on stock to rush Strange.

What's a good costume to get? Debating saving the crystals I have to try to speed up leveling Strange, or getting a new costume.

I have Wasp, Car Rider, Hulkbuster, Superior Spiderman, and Elsa.

My T2s are Sharon Rogers, Carnage, Songbird, and Gwenpool.

So many decisions. I have Squirrel Girl, Spider Gwen, and Misty Knight all 20d for T2, but I dunno. Working on Captain Marvel and Kamala Khan.

Please guide me.

Edit: Oh and got the Doctor Strange costume because it's freakin' Doctor Strange.

Captain Marvel (Ms. Marvel) costume is good. Makes her much better as a striker.
Floki costume is a no-brainer because Floki is still very good and useful.
Moon Knight costume is a minor bump but every little bit helps.
Ancient One's costume is apparently very good for her.
Iron Fist's costumes both give him a bit of healing which is good because he's the glassiest cannon there is in Combat heroes.

CM has no survivability to speak of and her damage isn't something you can really tag in and use like Hulkbuster's 6*. She can't really do a WB on her own and at best is hanging around for leadership or as a striker.

If she ever gets a T2, I hope they give her some recovery ala Moon Knight and a damage boost.

Hellstorm seems pretty good even at T1, though keep in mind this person has really good cards and is using Red Hulk's leadership

Same deal with Kaecilius

EDIT:

And here's one with Ancient One though everyone should know he/she is good by now, though his/her damage is lacking a bit.

He heals so much I would assume Angry Hulk would work best


Now that I have my T2 ticket I have no idea who to use it on. I boosted Clea to 6/6 but apparently Ancient One is a beast so I might hold off and get her up first. I have Elsa and Mr Skull ready for a T2 too ugh

i'm gonna try for Angry Hulk, but he's sitting on a Smart Raccoon because that's the first 8 set i got and only had 200k to roll with. Need to spend a few days doing co op and pray for 100% rifts so i can spend days and millions of gold to never see it.

I rolled Overdrive and Reddit was high on that one too, so I'll party with that. Now in like a kerjillion years when I finally max Strange out he'll really be baller (and easily dominated by like T-66 Bullseyes)

You're right, Overdrive has crit damage over attack speed

Overdrive

All Attack: 8.5%
Defense Penetration: 8.08%
Critical Rate: 8.5%
Critical Damage: 8.5%
All Defense: 8.5%
Attack, 12.0%
ALL ATTACK ↑ 40.0% (20.0s)


Power of Angry Hulk

All Attack: 8.5%
Attack Speed: 7.65%
Defense Penetration: 8.08%
Critical Rate: 8.5%
All Defense: 8.5%
Attack, 12.0%
ALL ATTACK ↑ 40.0% (20.0s)

Congratulations!
PoAH also has a third Chaotic so that's potentially another 370ish All Defence or some HP/Dodge. The Attack bonus cancels out cause it's an Attack ISO in Overdrive that PoAH replaces with a Chaotic.

Not a huge difference maker but it helps narrow the gap a little more. I'd take whichever one comes up first and not lose any sleep over it.

This is how i'm going to treat it once it really comes down to it. i got mine and now i need to build up his gear a touch, up some skills, and call it done. Maybe i'll finally see a decent obelisk since my weeks long drought continues as RNGesus continues to forsake me.

His 6* changes all his skills to 1 second cooldown, so you can just spam the heal skill over and over. It also gives 40% damage reflect(with his uniform) and strips buffs off enemies.
