How did that get past Marvel? It's canon that while Taskmaster knows how to web swing, the one time he tried it he dislocated his shoulder because he doesn't have Spidey's super strength.

My Cyclops used to do red Sutur raids no problem. Cosmic trial? He sort of pops like a balloon in a pit of angry kittens. I've only gotten Cap'n Hydra and Silver Stoner through it of the handful of people I've tried. Juggernaut wasn't able to do enough damage in time, but I also hadn't played him in short of 2 years.

Okay, so this event is Odin+Omega Files, but I've seen maybe 6x10 omega files. The Odin chests seem to be dropping by the handful at least. However at this rate I'll never have the patience for the Colson TU. I'm like 600 short and getting maybe 30/hr. If not less.

It sounds like cosmic modes will be accessible via a difficulty slider, and presumably there is nothing to stop people from playing in cosmic difficulty alongside other people who are not.

I suppose they could lock out cosmic difficulty til you pass the trial, though I'm not sure there'd be any point.

(If I ever start playing again, I will start a rumor that people not playing in cosmic difficulty are somehow loving things up for people who are. Substantially less effort than my previous plan of taking characters I've passed the cosmic trial with and AFKing naked in Cosmic Midtown.)

If they get rid of Cosmic Trial, I am proud - PROUD - to say that I was able to get Wolverine through. If they shut the game down tomorrow, that will be my greatest and best moment in Marvel Heroes 2016.

I like Invisible Mom, so I'm happy to hear she's doing well. I was playing her on the Test Center last night, she looks good now cause TheDink updated her basic costume and she's fun. I was hoping for a 50% off sale this week so I could buy her and Mr. F, but alas it will have to wait a week :(

  1. We'll be leaving King's County on through next week since it has been such a big hit this week. Bosses will continue to drop cake (1 per normal boss, 3 per cosmic) and have the 50% XP boost to the region! Woo!
  2. Cosmic Chaos is ending at midnight, so double cosmic loot and the cosmic leveling boost will be going away. Boo!
  3. Sales starting tomorrow at noon - Stash Sale and Boost Bonanza! Woo!
  4. Operation OMEGA starts at midnight, including 172% XP boost all week! Woo!
  5. Because we hate fun, Odin's Bounty rotation also starts at midnight, schedule links below. If we didn't hate fun, we'd turn Odin's Bounty on in every zone, but YOU SHITLORDS WILL NEVER HAVE THAT!

Kings County is the name of the county where the borough of Brooklyn, NY is. In game, they are talking about Industry City Patrol (which is based on a warehousing and manufacturing district in irl brooklyn).

The best way to get omegas is to do the daily shared quests and the 5 holosim waves per day. You don't really "grind" omegas, but you'll have well over 600 by the end of the week.

I picked up Black Cat and she's surprisingly cool and good. It's nice to finally get a revive mechanic that doesn't count as a death in every situation where dying actually matters. The cosmic trial is hilariously easy; if you somehow manage to die 9 times just pop your ult and get 9 more lives. Great damage too.

Omega files are actually mainly obtained through set methods. You get 30 from Coulson from doing 5 danger room waves, 30 from doing your 3 shared quests, 30 from some other thing and 10 from logging in. So you're supposed to be able to get 100 per day.

:psyduck: I get that this poo poo's getting a new hotkey and therefore is technically necessary, but Hulk doesn't use spirit anyway, so this adds nothing for him.

I mean, aside from the part where they set the movement speed on this poo poo to 550, which is too slow to be worth using on anyone except those who fly for free but can't clear obstacles with the spamable movement power. And even barely then.

e: Oh, they're bumping to 600. Slightly better, still close enough that it might be better to spam away and eat the Medkit though.
