for any gobbers playing movement gunner build and wished you could turn while gunning here's one cool trick i found

use tray 2 or 3 with the empty LMB slot, while holding down gunner and LMB to move around you can aim over a target and tap shift to instantly aim at them without stopping at all

Here's another pro tip for all you gobbleratics out there, TonyBing's "Bag of Tricks" Goblin Guide: http://marvelheroes.info/build/36641/

This thing is chock full of juicy tidbits, it's like US Weekly for Marvel Heroes. Normally, when Tony Bing refers to his Bag of Tricks it's his own gaggle of prostitutes. The man is a straight up p.i.m.p.

How long is a while? Were you around for Dr Doom, Iceman or Magik? Rogue can work as a summoner too I guess

Thanks! I feel like an idiot but how exactly do people level these days? I imagine it isn't going through the story mode multiple times, right?

# ? Mar 5, 2016 10:02

Ghostlight: Sep 25, 2009; maybe for one second you can pause; try to step into another person's perspective, and understand that a watermelon is cursing me

Story mode has been reduced to once only, and it is balanced to be finished in your late 50s (though depending on boosts it can cap you before finishing)

Easiest way to level is just do story mode these days, and do Legendary Quests when you fall behind in levels (usually mid-30s/40s). The highest experience quests are detailed here if you just want to sperg through it in the most efficient manner possible.

Stupid question I know, but how do I find my username so I can get in on all the goony goodness? I think it's the same as my sa name but I want to make sure.

Also how does one play silver surfer? Deadpool is really easy to play and rouge is super fun but I just can quite get the silver surfer to not feel slow.

No Dazzler, maxed warpath, cerebro, and psionic overload. Loz was saying he was getting lower than that on a build that's useful in situations other than fighting an inanimate object.

But seriously, all omega specs without Dazzler are trash.

Edit: vvvvvvvv Really? That's seems pretty dangerous as well.

Grandmaster is not that complicated to ececute, all you have to remember is that once you start using openers you must use all 5 openers without using any combo funishers during it. Also always sig immediately after doing the 5 openers.

Then you just have to remember that chi overload is only on during every other use of your sig, if you want to track dual stances for a few seconds of combo finisher bonuses.

What I want to know is how does he get his RMB(far right) hot key to rotate skills like that right after he presses it while every other hot key stays static. Also what is that target lock thing? Is that for controllers only or something?

Set up two bars to be identical apart from key skills. I do that on Rocket; he has one bar where LMB is Big Flarkin' Gun for clearing trash, another where LMB is the minigun for use on bosses. I think I also have Zig on the trash bar and CC break on the boss bar.

I'll let the master himself explain

The Man, The Legend, The God.... Scourm posted:

This is actually asked me to quite often, so I'd happily answer you in how I use hotkeys. First off, I have no problems with bugs or anything of that sort with my method, so there is no reason to worry there.

So you see that I am using the default keys for the hotbar (main keybar). However, what I do with hotkeys is entirely different.

First I go into the key bindings settings in the options menu and change all the skills from F1-F6 to keys that are closer to the A,S,D,F,G,H keys that are on my hotbar. As you can see, the keys I use are Z (1), Left Alt (2), Spacebar (3), Q (4), W (5), E (6).

The next step is figuring out where you are going to place these keys; your choices are out of Left Click Mouse and Right Click Mouse.

For me, I use Left Click mouse, but others may want to use Right Click.

To do this you are going to go your the mouse click you desire to place hotkeys on and hover over the screen until all the various powers pop up. Easy right?

Next decided which skills you want placed where. For instance, hover over the Energy Pulse power in the screen and press-Z (1). You should see a Z appear on the left side of the icon, thus signaling that this power is now hotkeyed. The problem here is if you don't use atleast 2 hotkeys, you cannot switch between powers. So your next step is applying a hotkey to another power; in this case I chose Vortex Grenades to be macro'd to my Left-Alt key or (2). Once you press the key (in this case Left alt) you should see that key now appear in the icon of the power.

Now by pressing Z key and Left Alt Key, you should be able to switch between the skills seamlessly.

Now that you understand how this is done, do this to the rest of the keys you wish to have hotkeyed until you have all 1-6 hotkeys binded.

congrats, if you read all that you now have autism

In keyboard settings, rebind f1-6 to things more useful, like qwer. Then press the button you want while hovering over the icon of the power you want. I usually bind q to a buff or short term toggle, w to my default rmb skill, e to cc break, r to travel power. Then pressing one cycles your rmb skill to that skill.

http://forums.marvelheroes.com/discussion/66933/how-to-add-more-hotkeys/p1, the person made a program to do that here, too https://forums.marvelheroes.com/discussion/218720/extra-hotkey-editor/p1

Despite never playing a char that doesn't use more than the default number of keys, they won't add more because they can't.

target lock is a controller thing, but you can bind the command to a key and use it without a controller

I cant recall offhand what the exact command is, but just open up your marvelinput.ini and search for 'TargetLock'

Iron Fist's tiger spec seems really fun now. I can basically spam seven armies and fury of five hundred fists over and over with the new good fortune kick's cd reset. It's actually kind of absurdly fun. Permanent 50-100% damage reduction while making GBS threads out conal or aoe attacks.

Haven't tried anything involving his sig though. I imagine grandmaster is fun as heck now too.
