Holy Moley, after <30 minutes in Hightown last night I have all but 1 of Punisher's uniques. Drop rates are ridiculous. What's BIS for his slot 1?

Complicated characters...I'm thinking characters where it's kinda like playing a piano to be most effective:

Strange
Reed loving Richards
She-Hulk
War Machine
Magneto
Iron Fist

Juggernaut has a very unique mechanic to him but he isn't complicated.

As for the above, all of these have simple builds too that are effective.

Strange and Reed are like playing a piano at their most effective.

She Hulk is kinda clunky and I'm not a fan. She is super strong though. Mikwuyma has a build on mh.info that is complicated but dominates. His name is mashyfingers2.

War Machina and Magento can fill two hot bars easily.

Iron Fist is deep depending on build.

Just some ideas for you. Nim998 here is God of Strange and is really showing his dominance. Check my post either on this page or last page with his ttk video linked.

Lmao, reed is like 3 buttons and then press your sig and spam whatever (all binds get replaced with bounce), push the rest cd button and do the sig again.
Complicated he ain't.

Actually here's what you do, hold down your punch key (mouse 1)
Keep expansion fetish on cool down for spirit
Keep your idiot dot up
Is the laser beam icon glowing press that
Use the signature its your main damage the rest is just there to make you think you have a rotation

Nice. His best slot 1 is called Fragment of Twilight. It's a raid craftable. Cheers!

If that can't be gotten by you since you're a newer player, Sword Gun works. Follow Hellvin's build because he is good at this game and ttks a lot of guys effectively:

Nah, Reed has some thought to him if you're using the big laser gun and keeping track of outwit stacks for that/the sig.

ICR's list is good but I'll just add: don't play Magneto. He's one of my favorite comixmen and has great voice acting but everything else about him is anemic and dated.

Unfortunately your allegiance in the great Cleavage vs Hair debate will be decided on your placement in the qualifier round, maybe we'll let the #1 time decide which team he champions for.

Getting a unique in slot is a good start.

Phase 2 of insanity grind is you have to get good rolls on those uniques which loving sucks when there are 9 or 10 things to roll on and getting all of them close to max values is nearly impossible. (hold alt, see your colors, and you want them to all be mostly green, and I personally go for +skills over +numbers on most things).

Then once you've got uniques that are good, you need to get them with Challenge Bonuses if they didn't drop with them (oh god) and you want to enchant them too.

and then there's the artifcats....

Yeah for "optimal magneto play" you wanna not just be stance dancing to maintain the huge damage rating bonuses but also be in god among insects to lay your dots and be in superiority for spamming your debris generator. Not worth it tho.

Thanks. I asked because I got all three, the Dragon, Sword Gun, and Ol' Painless. I think I'll just use Ol' Painless until I get a higher level drop of Sword Gun. That was one I had for a while, so I guess it doesn't count. I picked up the Davy Crockett I didn't get last night, though.

E: Soon as I said that, I got a brand new Sword Gun with pretty good rolls.

Cosmic Week is coming soon so work towards The Power Doop uru and Doop Ectoplasm artifact during it, and pick up Hela blessings for all your artifacts as you get odins marks available (you can move them to new artifacts as you get better ones). Make sure you put a level 60 costume core (someone can probably just give you a 25/2) on your costume and roll high CDR in all 4 costume slots. Those are probably the biggest easiest things you can immediately work towards that don't really require rng drops.

edit: also grab some kind of better teleport skill

Pick up a point into rubble slam so you have a vulnerability move. Her sig is pretty good and I would max that.

The only thing you really need to put on WM's second bar (at least for ranged) are his always-on toggles; you bind tear-gas to Q, spirit-restore/CC-break to E, flight to R, and whatever default move you use on RMB to W.

Then you basically just whatever around most of the time until your heat is full then spitfire and repeat. If you use the heat spec then you e-rmb-spitfire repeat.

Adhuin's awful build
It's designed for the first challenge within my current budget:
(No fragments nor Essences owned and no budget to reroll artifacts for better numbers)

Any glaring holes in The power build?
I usually just cruise back and forth and shoot some refracting beams at mooks. Bosses get usually the full load.

drop ironman get warmachine
why do you have cyclops skill maxed?

You got 7 points in deconstruct which is one your main skills to clear a screen+ worth of enemies. Since you seem to be using his ult to kill the boss you should drop everything from emf. Dash, drop vuln under him, ult, dash, sig, repulse clears him faster for you than emf.

Also put a point in reconstruct to cut decons cooldown in half.

You really need 20 in his defensive passive for shocker instead of one pointing the power one huh

Energy might be fine for you since you can probably get a few more dashes or repulses off, that is if everything still dies in one hit. Though uhh those sure are some omega picks.

Also sadness if you don't have spaceman or timeman for their synergies.

There's other issues but I started crying all of a sudden
