Any goon alliances have slots open? I just turned lvl 40 and the game made me the alliance leader of a bunch of mutes and inactives.

It's a good thing the cash shop in this game is absolute garbage or I might end up spending money on it. I missed the Cap for $10 deal and keep hoping I'll see something similar but I get nothing but terrible offers for exp chips and orbs.

Yeah I wanted to drop maybe 5-10 bucks on this game but like everything is a lootbox. Just let me buy something I want instead of a chance at something I want

Does difficulty increase at 45? I just hit it a minute ago.

No they increased the difficulty of campaign, raid and challenge missions during the thanos update. Missions I managed to 2 and 1 star before are completely wiping me instead.

Basically made it incredibly difficult to progress until you slowly grind up or you buy orbs

I love the animation in this game. When you get an assist that finishes an enemy it usually looks like this:

All I see is the shittiest bundles ever that. I never saw Captain America and I don't have the Black Widow one. gently caress this stupid idea of not everyone getting the same bundles. Do they not like money?

I think the strategy is to make the offer bundles random for people and limited time so that when you DO see them, you're more inclined to buy them since you have no idea how long they will be available for or if you'll ever see them again.

I got the cap bundle offer when I first started but I had no idea if it was good or if I would even like the game. By the time I wanted to drop money on this game it disappeared :shrug:

Should I prioritize leveling up quake, or gamora? I got them both around the same time.

My current best lineup is Drax, Yondu, Luke Cage, Wolverine and the last slot is either Daredevil for Arena/Blitz or Night Nurse in Raids.

I figure Gamora will eventually replace Wolverine/DD eventually as my damage dealer but where would Quake slot in for? Luke Cage?

I just realized you can quit Raid battles and still keep your guys :aaa: For some reason I thought they would get instantly KO'd if you quit

So if most of your team wipes and you have 1-2 guys with health left you can just quit the battle and mix them in with your B and C team. The only cost being your raid energy. Or maybe this is common knowledge

I'd experiment with putting deadpool in instead of night nurse for everything other than raids. You don't need a healer in most content other than raiding except for occasionally in missions.

I've seen some arguments that Deadpool is actually a top-tier character in Arena and Blitz because your objective in those is to gain a 5v4 hero advantage as quickly as possible and deadpool's taunt bypass is really, really good for that. I'll find out myself in like 3 weeks, maybe.

I hate him so much. I am sick of fighting him in like 80% of my blitz and arena fights.

Quake's ult hits almost as hard but she doesn't illicit that same level of "holy poo poo die" that I get from seeing a crossbones on the enemy team.

Quake is basically a glass cannon. Xbone is a modern motorized armored artillery piece that requires your whole team's attention for 2 turns.

I agree how annoying his ubiquitous presence is. I have like 4-5 Blitz teams and he can be found at every stage/tier. It turns every fight into 'Ok everyone kill crossbones, then do whatever'

It’s at the point my A team isn’t eating all my low level resources and I’m thinking about where to put them.

I want to start progressing through the hero/villains campaigns.

Where should I focus my resources?

My A team is: gamora, xbones, yondu, bw.

If you don't want to jump into building a B team just yet, Drax can be bought in the Arena store and is very good and will help in the hero and eventually cosmic campaign.

So I have to ask as I got a great laugh out of this:

What’s the most an enemy revived on you?

Just 10 minutes ago in the raid, I was on an Ultron raid node and he revived 6 times on me. It felt endless.

Matter of fact, I thought the game was bugged and thought I was in an endless loop. My fate was decided.

Yes, I was scared. Please leave me alone.

I think 4 or 5 is the most I've seen an AI revive.

Whenever my hero triggers a revive they get one-hit right away and it's never more than once.

Alright, catman's Shameful secret is looking to consolidate with another alliance. We've got 13 strongly active members with another 4 semi active. We can either absorb another alliance, in which case preference will be given to the strongly active members, or we can join two other alliances with the strongly active going one way and the semi active going another.

For reference, we managed to hit 60% on a 50 with just the 13 active people.

Yeah, we should probably merge alliances. Goon Registration Act is also usually hitting 60% with about 12-14 participants.

Everyone stresses the Discord.. what do you guy talk about in there that can't be discussed like.. here or in the in-game chat? I don't see the need for a secondary chat app outside of a game that has a guild chat feature and the forums.

Personally I find discord easier to check and read than the forums, and much easier to write on than in-game chat. Discord also allows raid leaders to alert members if raid progress is at like 99.8% and we just need someone to stare menacingly at the last node.

Game rules though, as someone who will not spend any cash on it I always feel like I'm making gradual progress.
Yeah it's a slow trickle but it's there. I think this is the most noticeable in the challenges where you keep trying every few days and do a little better each time until you finally 3 star it.

Out of curiosity, how do you guys run the campaigns? Try and split your resources and keep a level appropriate heroes and villains team or just run one and focus on the other later?

I focused on an A-Team so I could do well on Arena/Blitz. This happened to include two villians, Crossbones and Yondo, who were able to carry my villain team pretty far. I just accepted the fact that campaign progress will be slow/imbalanced though. I completely the heroes campaign a long time ago and just recently started finishing up the villains.

How long are you letting it sit at 42% before you give up? I know its less than ideal, but if you leave it for a few minutes and make sure the screen stays on it will usually finish up whatever the gently caress its doing.


That said.. I'm kinda losing some of my "give a poo poo". I'm getting to the point where I'm sick of the grind. I feel like I'm jumping through the same hoops every day and not really getting anywhere. Yeah, Ant-Man and Wasp have a neat gimmick. So did Deadpool and Cable, and they're not on my A-team either. My team has been what it has been and that's not changing any time soon. So what's the point? The way the game is built its so loving expensive to get someone up to speed that if he isn't going to shake up the current meta in some explosive way it doesn't even matter.

Deadpool is solid A-Team material. Too bad he'll be stuck at 3-4 stars or whatever until Deadpool 3 comes out.
