Forget your RoboCoX or your StickyCoX or your EvilCoX, MY CoX has Blinking Bewbs!

WHY IS THIS GAME DEAD?!

Chilichimp posted:

I've got 600 shards, no idea who to buy.

OK since I have no life whatsoever, here's my opinion on all the dudes I've taken to 60.

Black Cat-****1/2
Almost unkillable, strong damage, nice rear end.

Black Widow ***
Not as good as I'd hoped; damage isn't amazing, ult is blah. Great rear though.

Captain America ****
Sturdy with good DPS.

Colossus ***1/2
Very sturdy, and his AoEs shred trash mobs. Single-target damage is mediocre.

Cyclops ****
Rockin' offense, synergy gives +10% XP to other heroes. The voice actor phoned it in.

Daredevil ****
Sturdy high damage melee, combo system is easy to use or you can ignore it. One attack is always Brutal, so strap on an Ultimate Nullifier and watch bosses get splattered.

Deadpoop *****
Sturdy with great damage; ranged, melee and AoE are all viable. No Spirit problems, and he's easy to gear; when in doubt, you can't go wrong by increasing his "awesome". Fourth wall breaking humor might rub ultra-serious spergs the wrong way.

Doctor Doom ********
DOOM HAS NO RIVALS. NONE.

Emma Frost *****
Mega-defense diamond build is stupidly powerful, plus fappiness. Stay away from her part of the forums, her fans are literally insane.

Gambit ****1/2
Very good offense, his 52-pickup sig is an awesome boss killer. I can't believe he doesn't have a motorcycle, though. Ult is mediocre.

Hawkeye **
Bad, bad, bad. Arrows feel like you're shooting wet toothpicks in terms of damage, plus Spirit problems. Just plain boring to play. Stay away.

Invisible Woman ***
Kills trash mobs easily, weak against bosses.

Iron Fist ***1/2
Somewhat finicky to play, and not as sturdy as most melee, but once you get the hang of it he can crap out damage like crazy.

Luke Cage ***
I know I'm gonna get some flak here, but I just don't like him. He just doesn't have a good trash-killing AoE; Cage Was Here takes too long to charge up and is interruptible, the rock one is a tiny line, and the car one has a 8 second cooldown. Sngle target damage is good but not amazing. Ult is great.

Magik ****1/2
Very strong; AoEs and melee with demon backup, free teleport, great sig.

Rocket Raccoon ****
Very fun to play. Big Flarking Gun makes trash mobs melt away, while turrets take care of bosses. Great voice acting. A bit squishy.

Rogue ****1/2
Definitely not for beginners, but experienced players can play Rogue in any of a million ways. Also great behind.

She-Hulk ***1/2
Good offense, but not as sturdy as you'd expect a Hulk to be. And, I suppose you can fap to her, if eight foot tall green women are your thing. Hey, I'm not here to judge.

X-23 ***1/2
Her spirit gimmick is a pain in the rear end at low levels. Once you overcome it via gear and Omegles, she becomes a pretty solid damage dealer.

A real man would have said quality things like to rate characters for new players like:

Gambit: Cajun guy with a huge bulge. Really good shape on the bulge too. It's like a plantain really. Almost the size of his foot though in game but just a tad bit shorter. Would still get the job done. Pants barely fit over it--knows exactly how Kim Kardashian feels.

Spider-Man: Great build diversity for endgame but VERY tight rear end in his Iron Spider stume. Probably the tightest in the game and the shape is absolutely top tier. Bulge is so-so, more along the size of an avocado, which shows good diameter but not elliptical at all. Back to the rear end though, it's just on point. The crack dissects perfectly. Michelangelo would play this character.

Emma Frost: Awful. Just awful...

We joke about bulges and whatnot a lot in this here game but I remember fondly my initial reaction to the Amazing Spiderman costume, the that looks painted on

Welp 15mins of play tomorrow and huggy will be 60. Then rogue is next. Any good powers to grab as I go or do I just play around? Though I may spend a few hours in industry cake patrol to grab a few more cakes and groots.

Also lol at being level 50 with 1500ish momentum on juggernaut. The bed hits are freaking amazing.

I didn't go through an extensive amount of them but I quite liked the power you got from nc. It's really satisfying to just bounce from enemy to enemy and it's very spammable too. You can also sorta use it as a movement power.

As Overminty mentioned, definitely Kigiri for his teleport. Beyond that, you have a lot of options. This site will go a long way in helping you out with Rogue: http://clockworkbard.com/rogue/

You can also grab powers from other player heroes. IIRC, the power you get from an NPC villain and a player villain is different.

NPC and player villains give the same power iirc

Same power, but you can get it in either the hero tree or the villain tree depending on where you steal it, which can help with fitting a few specific powers. really depends on your build.

Not that I know of.

If you're leveling Rogue and want to grab something specific, there's a few people who still log in regularly and have complete rosters. You can tap me for almost anything that isn't Coulson if I'm on.

I mean the entire point is to just blow through it as fast as possible and not bother/wait for other people

I'm sure I can just steal the Raft powers (Gobby and LL, right?) which I assume give me a laser and an AOE which should be plenty, and just cycle my teamups and rip them as well

Living Laser is actually a weird damaging teleport thing, which isn't very good as either a teleport or source of damage

but it's pretty easy to just lick random people in any hub, and there's no reason to worry about being optimal when leveling

you can pop over to hightown and grab Richochet Shot (Cyclops) + Vanish (Kigiri) and literally never need to borrow or steal another power before 60

the only powers that are obnoxious to get are the ones that are tied to time limited events (i.e. Teleportal from The Deceiver, only being able to get the War Machine/Iron Man passive combo in enemy slots via Civil War runway fight) or on unpopular team-ups (i.e. Drax is basically better a Bullseye passive if your build has a spare Borrow slot open)
