I haven't been super impressed with Thor, but he's okay.

Thor is the best new Universal Hero ABX character, beating Odin, so his new uni is worth it if you care at all about that. It also lets him clear almost any SL stage he is viable for.

Whoa, no kidding? Is it the tier 2 that makes the difference? I feel like tier 1 hasn't been anything to write home about, although the invincibility and iframes have been nice. I did notice that his tier 2 is basically "gently caress barriers, get zapped" and it looked pretty powerful. I'm definitely not writing him off at this point, just not prioritizing him for the ticket because I think I could tier 2 him manually easily enough.

The thing with costumed Thor in ABX is his third skill may be bugged. Apparently it stacks continuously the more you do it so he can get crazy scores in ABX when there's just a giant bag of HP to punch.

Is the new Loki Costume any better than Girl Loki?

Cinara
Jul 15, 2007
It's a massive damage/speed increase, and if you mythical the costume you get an amazing premium card for free from the new mode. Makes WBU Supergiant a joke and just more fun to play in general due to the new moves.

I feel like I let Davebo down. I should have finished the x-men epic questline today for Wolferine but after paying some gems to finish the 1000 crystals early I went too fast and ran the new magneto mission without him on the team. And the questline requires you to do it twice with him. Tomorrow it is.

its...a pretty massive boost. and those are the only 2 modes that require min-maxing.

really for a mega ticket it's hard to argue against Valkyrie. she's a great character on her own and the team bonus is huge.

2099 isn't as good at PvP as Homecoming Teenager but is a really powerful character in his own right, like he can solo SL stages

EDIT: Wanted to put more emphasis, 2099 is straight up top tier speed, it is not a waste to MRUT him if you want a good speed hero

Eh ok you convinced me, mostly only for WBU, I had 2 after the Halloweeny so wthey

ABX I always die after 100k, it's the only way to play

I rolled 11 chests and got nothing. That was 7425 crystals (I'd bought 7700)

It's 675 a chest so you can do the math

Grats but I'm anal enough I'd wait for AA to roll before I slot it in (honestly I wouldn't mind rolling it in slot, given you'd only lose some energy attack, other two or whatever)

Honestly it wouldn't be that hard, you're looking to nail 1 roll out of all randoms. That's actually pretty easy, I can do a 1 random roll card in usually 3-7 tries, it'd be easy to work out the math

You need 2 random rolls for a regular card to become trifecta, THAT takes forever

He's worth bringing to 60, apart from being able to do all the modes he's also currently king of TL and #1 speed meta

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I'm gonna get Quicksilver to 6* today (just need the gold for the BAM) but I'm thinking of leaving him at 55 so I can work on Dormammu. I'm still stuck on the "beat Quicksilver in 15 seconds" thing and I don't see Quicksilver himself helping me. But maybe I'm wrong. This week I've just taken a break with it and am doing the daily bonus WBR because I was getting really frustrated. I'll try again when I get Jean's Isos awakened or Urus up to 4* or Quicksilver to 60 or Thor with the new costume or I don't know. I just needed a break.

I think leaving him at 55 for a while is fine if PvP isn't your goal. If you're not clearing Shadowlands to 25 each week it'd probably be better to dump bios into a black order person or Dormy IMO. Note that 25 -> 30 in SL probably WILL require him to be 60 but that stuff is on about the same level as WBU and the rewards are (usually) pretty poop compared to the normal ones.

Yeah but :effort:

Mainly I just got excited by the rank 7. That's actually the first time I've rolled one of those, ever. I think it'll be more efficient to just slot this one for now and work on my other cards -- like you said, the regular cards are more re-roll thirsty so the faster I get back to doing them the faster I should be able to find something good. Replaced this guy so I just lost 6% physical attack and energy defence in exchange for the ignore defence and attack speed which are both more useful overall.

Yeah, I'll probably do something like feed Quicksilver his dad's bios and give Dormy everyone else's. When he hits 60 he hits 60. But its not really my current priority.

But I'm starting to give a poo poo about Timeline and am currently in the top 100 in Platinum. So he might jump up in priorities. Who knows? I'm trying to just chill for awhile and do whatever because I spent like a month super focused on Quicksilver/Jean to try and get Cable and just feel burnt out.

If you care about Timeline then you absolutely need Quicksilver built up. He's the far and away #1 Timeline character at this point.
