The Sea Horn is an Atlantean artifact from the Spidey Super Stories universe, established by Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Verse as Earth-57780, where it is owned by Namor but stolen by Doctor Doom before being retrieved by Spider-Man in Spidey Super Stories issue #53 and is therefore super ultra mega canonical and should at least be a unique or something because its pretty great

Canon.

I discovered today that I have a grade 69 Legacy of Kraven that I have no idea how I got. Do these things drop? I checked my recent achievements and it wasn't from there.

EDIT: I'm seeing other people in the SG getting 69 Kravens too. I think mine was from a MM box, but it was only a level 42 box if so.

There are achievements associated with wearing a Legacy of Kraven and killing Kraven like 25 times, I think it rewards a 69 version of the item. Same with Trask Commander Helm and a couple others I believe. I noticed earlier that I had two 69 Trask Commander Helms in my stash, but have not done the achievement at all. Pretty sure I got them in Cosmic Midtown last night and today.

What are the basic ways people increase survivability? I figure you have to sacrifice offense somewhere, so is there a good rule of thumb for where you should look to add survivability gear/enchantments/etc. and what you should add? Specifically for characters with low Omegas; I'm up to like 400.

The best way to increase survivability is with a costume core with 2 second invulnerability. That is 20% uptime on being invincible. If you can find a core with invuln plus 400 life on hit or 25% health/100 spirit then those are even better. Some uniques add both survivability and damage like fragment of twilight slot 1. Some top end artifacts like hulkbuster psychics package, lizard formula, etc are also good for survivability w/o sacrificing damage depending on what your character needs. Some characters are just going to be fragile no matter what because of their skills/passives though.

Just remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint. X up for things when they get announced in SG chat (you should be in the SG if you're not) and that will get you at least level 60 versions of all your hero's uniques. After that you just learn to play the game a little better and good artifacts or enough odin marks for legendaries/blessings will come as they come.

Meh, i just switch to a better character. Gearing for survivability just means you aren't doing enough damage compared to the hps the boss gains by you being there. There is very little you can do to gain enough survivability without completely tanking your dps.

my fav memory was either pokchu or mokhu inviting a thing with 20000000000hp and no damage to a red raid way back in january because they were desperate for a body to fill the raid and i think it did negative dps and healed the bosses.

On this note, I would like to mention that "The Sea Horn" is properly named the Horn of Proteus and exists in the mainstream 616 canon.



Additionally, Spider Super Stories was homaged in Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Comic Magazine #7 -

http://www.doom2099.com/doomgate/return/ff_worldsgreatest.htm posted:

Summary:
Crystal arrives in the Baxter Building and discovers Doom lurking in Reed's lab. No sooner does she confront him, he disappears. In space, the Fantastic Four and their ally the Black Panther, survive in airless space because Sue maintains an invisible field around them. Opening a small gap in her field, Reed uses a flare gun to send a signal hoping that SHIELD or the Silver Surfer will see it and rescue them. Doom returns to his castle and has one of his soldiers sound the Atlantean trumpet summoning all of the beasts of the sea. Back in space, the FF are rescued by the Inhumans and reunited with Crystal. Regrouping with Nick Fury on the SHIELD Helicarrier, Reed, Sue, Ben, and Black Panther return to the Baxter Building while Johnny and Crystal join the Inhumans back at Attilan. The Silver Surfer joins the Avengers in combating the sea-monsters Doom has summoned. When Reed and co. arrive at the Baxter Building, they are shocked to find the Watcher waiting for them.
- a 12 issue retro series that is infuriatingly hard to locate online but is reportedly canonised as having taken place between issues #100 and #101 of the original Fantastic Four comic.

Just Started this game three days ago, and it is the greatest.

Question, does changing the story mode level do anything? and Is it worth it to finish it on normal even though I am like level 50 and only 1/2 way finished with it?

You can earn the rewards like power points and spirit/hp increases on each difficulty level, but other than that not really. You can always go back and clean it up if you want, but other than the rewards (which you can grab by checking this thread) it's just story which is pretty sparse even for comics. You level faster and get more gear in pretty much every other mode of play.

I've only done it fully three times - two of which were on my cosmic prestige characters simply so they had everything ticked off on their quest log.

yes but for most unique items do not do this

Not as strong as you'd expect.
There are upgrade recipes to bring low-level uniques up to 40, 50, and I presume 60(Though I personally haven't gotten that one). These ones don't reroll the stats, it brings them up to the proper level. If yours was max roll, it'll still be max roll afterwards. I think there's a reroll stats recipe, but I'm not as sure on that one.

you will be finding level 60 versions of uniques way more frequently than lower level ones if you decide to play the endgame, you spend much more time at max level. save those lower level uniques for if you decide to prestige.

His own slots 1-4 and Mask of Algrim / GoK, HoD, TM's guide, Amsa / lvl 80 M'kraan / Power Doop / ICP melee ring / Doom medallion.

To expand on that, it's a recipe on the crafter, not sure what level, but it requires a fairly rare drop for 60 and the vast majority of Any Hero uniques are way behind the power curve and not as good as a cosmic item, while uniques for your specific hero will drop far more often than the recipe reagent.

There's one to upgrade to 40 as well, and while it only costs credits you don't spend much time at that level to make it worth doing.

I find it is if you get a unique between 12 and 30. A level 40 will be good all the way to 60.

Then again I have 13 million credits between boxes and wallet, so 47.5k really isn't much to me.
