There's a new patch live. Patch Notes: Gameplay/General - S.H.I.E.L.D. has undergone some emergency reorganization after a devastating blow by H.A.M.M.E.R. to a S.H.I.E.L.D. storehouse. As a result of this attack, S.H.I.E.L.D. has run low on their current supplies of Health Packs for in field agents. Heroes that level will no longer be able to avail themselves of a free instant Health Pack to return to full health. However, S.H.I.E.L.D. quartermasters are working feverishly to mitigate this attack. They've managed to raise the Agent's Health Pack maximum to 5 from 4 and lower the amount of time it takes to requisition a new Health Pack to 36 minutes from 96. Health Pack costs have risen slightly as well, from 15 for 1, 60 for 5 to 50 for 1, 200 for 5. - H.A.M.M.E.R. soldiers have become more aggressive when Agents and their teams fall back from combat, much as Tournament opponents do now. When retreating, damage equal to one third of each character’s health will be suffered. - Tons of back end changes to support upcoming UI changes and future Event types - Heroic Mode: Harder versions of previous Chapters with improved challenges and rewards. Coming up first will be a revamped Juggernaut. - Lightning Round Tournament Upgrades: Ability to run more varied Lightning Rounds. It's not all Hood and Doom anymore. UI - Ability maximums are now listed for each character in the Ability Screen for each character - Several improvements to the Facebook Sharing process. There should be far less instances of not receiving larger lists, varied friends, etc. More improvements to this system will be coming with R42. Characters - Added upgrades to Levels 2-4 of Daken's Pheremone Rage Level 2: +10% Strike tile strength Level 3: +10% Strike tile strength Level 4: +20% Strike tile strength

What the gently caress, did they change how buffs work in the tournaments? Jugs was tanking pretty much every colour before, now the other characters are showings up as if it was a normal match. My other two characters went down super fast since I was expecting Jugs to tank. Edit: D3's forum explains it better then I do quote:Tile damage is being buffed, just for whatever reason, the buffed damage isn't taking priority when matching tiles. There goes my hopes of placing top in this tournament. mania fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Nov 9, 2013 |

I'm pretty sure the Juggs buffs expired, didn't they?

# ? Nov 9, 2013 00:55 |
|
The boosts are per-tournament, so Jugg is still boosted in the Free-For-All Arena, but not in the Iron Man one, and vice-versa.

I managed to finally get a red Thor and level up a bit more today, but it's imperative I get that yellow and green Thor from the Iron Man tournament. Then I'll have my perfect Asgardian at 5/5/3. I leave green attacks to Classic Storm for block-breaking. She's still stuck at a measly level 53 with 3/3/3 though. I'm pretty sure it's still letting me heal by leveling right now, but I've definitely noticed the faster Health Kit recharge already. EDIT: drat, it must've just stopped healing. It let me do it once after the update, I swear! Gallow fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Nov 9, 2013 |

Come on goons I could really use another 1,700 iso. Edit2: I tried to use iron man model 40's recharge ability. I only got 6 red ap from 18 yellow ap. I'm selling his useless rear end.

Free For All, Jugs is listed at his buffed damage and before the patch every tile except yellow was his but with the new patch this is what I get: And the damage from matching tiles is Storm/Thor's lower damage, not Jug's buffed damage.

You could reasonably get a max level Ironman 40 by spinning the slots 3 times and buying 10 upgrades total. So your total cost would be 3300 coins + 12,500 coins = 15,800 coins. So, roughly 75 dollars.

Now he only tanks environment tiles Makes it a lot more of a pain to make him trigger Raging Tempest e: this weekend tournament needs to pick up the pace a bit too - I want to get that 600pt Daken cover but I'm rank 2 in my bracket at 350 points so it seems like a hard slog or a wait til nearer the end in store til I can get up there WetSpink fucked around with this message at 01:48 on Nov 9, 2013 |

JoshVanValkenburg posted:Not loving the level up no longer reviving/ healing. Yeah. It was kinda of fun trying to manage ISO / Levels / Health-Packs so you could keep playing. Now the CPU gets a lucky cascade and it means you don't get to play for the next 90 minutes. I guess I'm lucky enough to have enough decent covers to piece together two teams; But it'd suck trying to start from scratch now, it's really going to slow you down not having the free heals (like, I'd probably given up on the game if I could only play 5 or so matches before having to wait hours to play again, but maybe they reward you with enough health packs in the starter missions where this isn't an issue). Most of this week was spent using Juggernaut in the tourney. Since he was the damage dealer for most of the color thanks to the 200% boost, I'd use him as a tank until he died, increase his level, and repeat. (But I guess actually being able to have fun playing the game goes against the freemium model).

Level up Wolverine and Daken. Murder team forever. Wait, there's less than 5 yellow tiles, Daken, get off the floor already! The tournament gave me enough Daken purples to get him to level 5 though. Two +30 strike tiles for every green match. Wolverine's strike tiles are now at +60 per strike. It's murdertown.

The new iron man kind of sucks, honestly. His attacks are expensive as hell. Sure, he can hit for 9k damage with one of them... but almost nobody even has that much HP to begin with.. and the attack drains all your other colors too.

The best thing about him is his yellow power. Generate Red (or more) AP and take a nap for a bit. edit:^^^^Wolvie's got ridiculous healing though, so I barely even touch the heal tokens. Just take him for a spin beating up hammer goons and he's good for round 2. Even if he's KO'd it's just until he's awake and healing again.

My problem with iron man model 40 is the computer always wants yellow tiles so most the time you just get 3 red ap. On level up it cost a lot more, so you can't spam it. So it might give you 20-30 ap leveled up but if you need 10-13 ap and then wait 3 turns you could end the match with iron man model 35. He is a slow tank in a game where blitzkrieg is the key to winning.

Don't forget that there's an Iron Man 40 token that you can get in Man weekend tournament for the reasonable goal of 500 PvP points, which is pretty doable. I'm at the 350 mark, and stopped there so I can focus on maintaining position in the FFA

I used to avoid going in versus high level Thors, but now he just goes in and eats up those yellow lightning bolt attacks like it was nothing.

It doesn't look like the Heroic Mode PvE is up yet. Looking forward to more grinding for rewards as a nice change from ThorStorming. As for tonight, the end of the Free For All will be interesting. Juggy getting hosed over abruptly puts a new spin on things, as does the lack of level-up-to-heal (as if all those Thor 85s could level up any more) plus the increased health pack rate. delfin fucked around with this message at 02:47 on Nov 9, 2013 |

Of course I have a good shot at finally breaking 1000 ponits and getting in the top 10 of a tournament and it's that lovely Iron Man for a prize. I don't even need that yellow Captain prize because I have him max skilled already.

I got back up to #9, then #3, then again up to #6. Then I had a pretty awesome win taking out another guys high level juggernaut with stuns but while I was doing that some lower level punk took me down 32 points and I went back down to #7. I don't mind being taken down cause I have less points but it hurts being taken down by a defeat you have zero control over.

Is it just me or did daken not get a buff to his strike tile passive at all? I thought that was something that was supposed to happen.

SynthOrange posted:Yeah but what are the chances of ever seeing him? I hung back for 3 Doctor Doom Lightning Rounds for the Heroic Tokens and got 2 yellow and 1 blue Spider-man, making mine 3 yellow 1 blue - super lucky, I know. It was insanely easy late at night in those Lightning Rounds (yay for being in New Zealand) I think I only needed 3 fights in the last 30 minutes to keep in the 26-50 bracket and they were all 11-12 point battles because anything bigger would have risked getting too high. e: I should add it seemed like they got the ability to queue up lightning rounds this time too which let them run through the night whereas the first set of lightning rounds was only started manually as far as I could tell.

Our buffed teammates may be broken, but the a.I.'s.certainly isn't. Iron man 40's 8.5x crit hurts. Also: oh boy, my first heroic token in a few days, I sure hope it's not bag man... oh.
