Whiplash’s release was so random too, I really don’t know why they made the effort to put him in the game.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Ok I'd been saving up some bios so with today's login gift I jumped Buckaroo Barnesai straight to T2, and got his shiny new costume the other day before the sale ended. Hopefully he lives up to the hype. Would he want an ITGB custom gear or just crit and damage? He's got a lot of ignore dodge already. CTP of energy is still best in slot I'd assume but I'm not investing that much in him.

I've had a CTP of Refinement in my inventory forever and I just can't decide where to put it. I gave my two CTPs of Energy to Cable and Quicksilver, Spidey 2099 has a CTP of Patience and Kaecilus has a CTP of Refinement. Those last two are probably wastes since I don't even use them on a weekly basis in Shadowland but I gave them to them when I was struggling to finish it and it put them over the edge at the time. Neither is T2.

I should probably spend the crystals to remove them and give them to better characters. I can just never decide. New Cap could maybe use the Refinement since he does damage but sometimes gets killed off for me. But I don't want to do that before I T3 him and see what he's like. Hulk maybe, since he can sometimes be one shot by Proxima Ultimate. Or it would probably jack BP up (he's turned into my 5th daily Ultimate Proxima clear).

CTP of Refinement is great for Blue Marvel (if you have him)

So I threw enough crystals at the lab to get ten Nova bios to recruit him, and then mega 6 starred him. Hope the investment is sound when I get his mastery up.

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

I'm not actually mad about how many Cosmic Cube Fragments you need to get to T3 Cap. Like its slow but T3ing probably shouldn't be easy. And if you cap out on the other stuff you can use that on someone else's gears. So its fine. Mostly I was just disappointed because I was doing the daily gear upgrade's so it was a short stop when I saw the T3 costs and realized I was gonna have to just wait awhile and let it happen. But that's fine. I'm past it and focused on other stuff.

I got [REDACTED] up to rank 38 but I'm kind of stalled out. 5* Urus and all but 2 fully awakened Isos. I'll keep working on the 6* and tweak my Urus and obelisk depending on how my stats look, I guess. I'm hoping I can get him up. I might buy the uniforms that match with his just to get those little skill bumps. Every bit to get me to #1. I guess if I fall short I can keep beefing him up by buying more iso slots? Dunno. Have to wait and see.

I bought the Spidey costume and I actually kind of regret it. Its not bad or anything but it doesn't seem like a huge improvement over the Homecoming one. Probably should have got Corvus or Proxima. Or saved for Wanda or someone. Ah well.

I’m guessing it only counts the active ISO set.

I’m pretty much done with the game so I bought all the option uniforms for a character and got them to 31st place. I’ll probably just grind for urus and uni bios now.

Returning player and I'd rather just avoid making mistakes with the items I have left/gain from returning.

Outside Strange, what should be my priorities at this point?



Other things but mostly 2* Mordo, Singularity, songbird and other famables.

I myself would go all top row except: Silk who fell off. Frost is too expensive...and Reyes isn't essential. Sharon Rodgers probably first. You need updated costumes for the other ones though to make them awesome.

T2 Sharon
T2 Loki and get Rag costume
T2 Shuri if you have bio sub
T2 Thor and get Rag costume (for the card from Legendary Battles)

Lesser Priorities
T2 Hela - and do the Legendary Battle
T2 Cap with new costume
T2 IM with new costume
Cap and IM take half resources to T2 and easily farmed
Get Emma to 60 at least, wouldn't worry about T2 for awhile

Whenever Priorities
T2 Ultron - cheap to t2 and can clear sl17 Destroy Boss solo
Get Robbie to 60 and Mastered, he is solid at t1 but could use t2 eventually
T2 Elsa, can farm from Villain Siege and is still a solid speed

Other than working on Sharon first, I'd do Spider-Man. He's cheap to T2 and his Homecoming costume is nearly as good as his new one if you want to be careful with crystals, he's a top tier character with either his Homecoming or Avengers costume, and he can go to level 70. I highly recommend him.

Edit: Oh yeah. Save materials for Wolverine, too.

Yeah, you can even sorta/quasi farm her through the Legendary Battles. I mean, its not a good way to do it but it will get you there faster than most of the "unfarmable" characters.

And yeah, T2 Shuri is good. I took down Proxima WBU 14 with her yesterday after my Quicksilver suffered a quick death and today she took down an Infinity War Winter Soldier in Timeline that took out my Wolverine and Scarlet Witch.

I'm really behind on everything so I'm not sure what most of that is. Came back when I saw Dr Strange and Scarlet were in the game and then saw how not close to getting them I was :D

Still, I enjoy it and I can get thor/loki's costumes right now so that's nice. I have no Tier 2s but am getting a selector in 2 weeks I think.

It's a fun game, it's such a battery drain though

Thanks a bunch for the pointers. I'll hold off on the bio sub for now though it's not that bad to purchase if she's that good.

Oops my bad, was thinking she was a bio sub character for some reason. Even more worth getting to T2 then.

I would say so. Easiest to use and win with, even when she’s not fully maxed out, can do any mode that a newer player needs in order to better their roster.

I just started and using Sharon Rogers has been a godsend. She wipes the floor with the story through Chapter 8 no problem at all, and then helped me get my first 50K+ score in Alliance Battle. She is practically immortal with her damage absorb, damage immune, and 2 "non targetable" moves. Plus I hear awesome things about her costume, MOAR DMG!

Awesome! I'm glad I picked her. I also somehow got a 6 star character selector? I already have Shuri. Who should I use it on?

Is there a good guide or something I can follow?

There's a tier list in the OP, although it's kinda tiny (visually). I used mine on Moon Knight and Yondu, personally, since I got 6* Thor and Black Panther from the Legendary Battles

Out here, everything hurts


Re: the tier list, there's a newer one post Infinity War that takes the uniforms into account, and it's a little larger (right click, open image in new tab)

Do keep in mind though that it assumes you have the uniforms in the pictures. I don't necessarily agree with ALL of this, but it's close enough if you're not being overly picky.
