I think you can get limbo4 with the not unlocked level 10 kitteny but you need to find a dope in hollersim. I hope so at least so I don't have to spend splinters on her.

Someone go test that, not playing until tomorrow evening

Here how you unlock it: Play Black Cat.
Everything starts to feels hard and you get owned by such badasses as "Group of Maggia Goons" or a strong breeze.
Hell, you can be a lvl 19 Black Cat in a Lvl 10-14 Midtown zone and still need to be carried by a group of Deadpool players happily leveling their characters.

I'm not talking about end game, I'm talking about lvl:s 1-25. You know the ones you usually miss by blinking your eyes once while leveling.

Yeah, the parts where you're going into the invaded rooftops snap to "view maximum bulge" zoom once you get down to the ground and don't let up until you're out. Gaz!

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
Man, this whole leveling via the story is pretty sweet, got 2 heroes up to 60 with pretty much no effort.

Thinking of trying SW or Jean next, what are their pros/cons?

You laugh, but there is even funnier tidbits:

I decide to take my lvl 4 black Cat to this brand new Hightown patrol zone and see the sights.

I look around a bit and the Maggia event starts and I decide to flex my muscles there.
I kill couple mooks and get killed (all 9 lives!) and respawn immeditially from the sewer entrance.
I charge again, kill couple mooks and get killed. Respawn.
I charge again, kill couple mooks and get killed. Respawn.

Bodyslide out. That was my adventure on Marvel Vietnam! (zone level 1-4)

After lvl 30 she got little easier and @lvl60 she is almost good even.
Still a melee chump, but not a horrible one like in the lower levels.

No real cons to either one--they are among the strongest and most well rounded characters in the game.

Jean can be built as a psychic or as the Phoenix--both equally viable. Psychic is your basic ranged mental type, with good cc. Phoenix is more unique. It's a tanky mid range caster build that's entirely aoe damage. You get an insane steroid, Dark Phoenix, that charges slowly but basically turns you into a tiny, invincible sun for a short time, and adds unique bonus effects to all your powers (extra projectiles, heals, random explosions). Both builds get to toss bosses around with telekinesis.

Scarlet witch is all about chaos magic. Your main attack fires random amounts of projectiles, you get a move that has a small chance to instantly erase enemies from existence, etc. Lots of stacking DoTs, and has a semi involved rotation because you build charges for a big hadouken by using your chaos-y moves. Really cool sig, insta kills any normal enemies and stuns bigger guys for a long duration, and makes all those super chaos effects automatically proc at their highest value for a while. Also gives you guaranteed procs for any omegas or items you're wearing, which can be built around a little. Switch also has my favorite aoe move in the game, that lets you float around doing screen wide damage and healing massively+has cool particle effects!

So my iron man is at level 34, and I'm kind of stuck. I kept doing the main story missions, but now I'm at the AIM weapons lab in chapter 8 and basic enemies like turrets will kill me. I tried going back and completing side quests in earlier chapters but they're all awarding me less than 1k xp each. How are people getting to 60 with ease?

Man. They really need to dial back the number of seeds on uniques and lower drop rates in CMM. The drop rate of uniques in other areas are decent if you weren't getting garbage 99% of the time. CMM is the only place that gives you the sheer volume required to get strong rolls across all the good item affixes.

You'll do legendary quests to get back to Story Mode. Supplement Legendary Quests in between your story leveling. And Midtown Madness.

Basically you want to be in certain level bands when you do story stuff. Not just because of difficulty, but because if you're over- or under-levelled you'll get an XP penalty and your smooth journey to 60 will be interrupted. Here's a plain English guide for when to do what: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3716799&pagenumber=509&perpage=40#post448527379

and here's a spreadsheet if you like numbers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QgVPnEd4Mi_1eNWR_1Td_n6scVq1EE6oGjwiZxlWpdc/edit#gid=1741813078

If you find yourself underlevelled for the next step (as you are now), you can do as the Sun God says (and you'll want to reroll LQs to terminal LQs if you can afford it) or you can just go kill stuff in midtown or icp.

Pretty sure they were only fixing it for Black Cat, since she gets 9 resurrections and they don't heal her or something.

I believe Danger Five is back and if you like clicking on stuff and picking up grey orbs then you'll be in heaven.

No new terminals or oneshots ever I bet. Gaz never looks back, only forwards, ever restless, always one eye on the horizon. Chasing the dream of an endless summer and never tarrying too long in one game mode, all hail Yogi Bear and may you be reborn in samsara my friends.

But yeah the focus is on danger room and patrol zones now, supposed to be a savage land one coming soon.
