I just used a t2 ticket on Jane because I needed her bios to level the last BO (Black Dwarf) to 60.

Oh well. She'll probably collect dust with most of my other T2s.

It's not like she's bad, she just not life changing.

I still use Lincon + Thors pretty regularly.

floor 28 or something gave me a choice of a combat rumble or a combat rumble which was really awesome and i was forced to waste sharon there

I'm stuck on Stage 14 because I have the option of combat rumble, combat rumble, or combat rumble with Lash as the boss. And since I had a ton of combat only choices I'm out of all my blasters and have like 10 people who can win a stage but can't do poo poo in a combat rumble.

Jean is better at everything except extreme alliance battle because there isn't a day for her to shine. Thanos with the new uniform is also really really good though so if you think he's cool you won't be disappointed.

They can both autorun 12-7 and 12-8. They can both ace literally every timeline battle if you play manually, and both will ace most of them but not all if you play it on auto, but Jean is easier to play and requires less skill/luck. They both dominate in their respective battleworlds if u care (lol). They're both top tier at Risk but Jean has the edge there because of her leadership and 2 lives passive. Thanos is better at XAB becacuse there's a universal supervillain day that he's best in slot at, but Jean is much better at WBU because she has more DPS.

Basically uniformed Thanos has a bit more survivability but Jean has a lot more DPS.

WBU might seal the deal for me. Time to sink a lot of time and gold into her!

Yeah, I missed the daily crystals. That annoyed me. Hopefully I'm just aware enough to check in tomorrow morning before it resets. Luckily I managed to finish my Special and Dimension runs before it started. It kicked in basically a minute after I was done when I was trying to collect my challenge prizes and burn off energy.

Hey guys I need some help.

I just started playing this game and took the advice in the first post about maxing out Sharon Rogers ASAP. I got her at lvl 60 and 6 red stars and played through the story mode to Chapter 11.

What should I be focusing on now as a new player? There is so much stuff to do in this game and I'm overwhelmed and bit nervous that I'm not playing it right. Could you possibly give me some direction?

theres an icon that shows you most of the stuff you can do each day and if youve done it or not, i forget what its called but youll find it. do as much stuff as you can / have time for. try to do the daily challenges for free crystals. try to run three rifts in hot time but really try to get at least one for the gold because youll always need gold but try for 3 cos thr energy you get is useful and youll always need cards and uniform kits. try to get at least 3 6* characters so you can do a world boss a day with sharon and start working towards a native t2 character. try to do the dr strange and wolverine epic quests as best you can.

if you have spare energy run wbi and if you run out of characters for that farm up a story mode character.

yeah, its a lot! theres nearly always something you can be doing.

also if you got the gold make sure you donate to the alliance each day, you get tokens you can use on black order mats or bio selectors

Netmarble posted:

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

We will be taking down the servers for a planned maintenance period. During this time you will be unable to access the game as the servers will be down. This maintenance will allow us to attempt a few back side changes as well as the following modifications:

1. Gear Re-rolling price changed from 1 Gold back to a normal price.
2. Fixed an issue with Spiderman 2099's skill cooldown time showing incorrectly with Deadly Rake (1★) and Spider Mirage (6★)
3. Server Stabilization
4. Shadowlands floor 13 Hit Point changes.


After the recent Shadowland changes, we have found that stage 13 was more difficult to complete than the floors around it. Due to this we are modifying HP of characters that appear on this floor so they are comparable to the difficulty of the stages around it.

The thing that really bugs me with SL now are these wave stages where I have to kill all the goons to complete the wave. There's real challenge it's just the time sink waiting for them to spawn and then kill them, only a select few of my characters can pull it off.

I don't know if anyone else noticed, but as part of the Thanos event, all costumes are 40% of tomorrow. I've saved up 4,720 crystals so far, so I'm super excited to make it rain and maybe finally make some more significant progress in Shadowlands. I also had no idea how much Elsa Bloodstone sucks without a costume, even at tier 2.

Just reinstalled this after 250 days of freedom. I used to run Ultron/FemLoki/Silk at 5-6*.

I came back to a free 6* and 5x 100 characater token selectors. Is there anything really amazing I could pick or is the rule still pick who you like?

It's easy to hit 10mill but i also spent the morning fusing up some BAMs to bring Thanos up from 4* to 5* and that probably would have been more useful if i had waited about two hours. Such is life and it's looking like getting our boy Tane House a proper ISO set is going to bring me pretty far up the way anyway.

Don't forget to pick up her Starlight uniform too, while it's on sale; takes her from excellent to incredible.
