I've done everything but the squad battle because I cannot bring myself to unlock it. The CCF are probably more important to me than the mega ticket anyways.

I forget. Does the Mega T2 take anyone from anywhere to T2 or do they already need to be 6* or something?

The only characters i don't have at T2 are all premium characters, and mega tickets never work on those. Well, also Quire, who i would be able to take to t2 if i had one more day to get xgenes from the pre House of M event. I really wish they'd make those available to collect or buy. Stick them in the guild shop, make then expensive but what's the point of making non premium mutants when you can't get Xgenes?

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

The current Mega T2 I have in my inventory can work on all the premium characters I have, but only the ones I have at 6 stars. Nick Fury, Gambit, Enchantress, Arachknight, Iceman, etc. But my Mr. Sinister and Rescue are at 4* and it won't work on them.

You can get Quire X-Genes from the Lab. Its slow but its possible and its how I was working him up to T2 before the House of X event. You can also get most of the premium mutants from the Danger Room daily and week rewards. Its random and slow but its the best path available. My basic approach is to get 1 W a day to get the daily X-Genes and doing that I can work myself to Platinum/Vibranium and hope I get a big windfall of useful X-Genes from the weekly/monthly drops. And there's Dimension Missions but those drop like almost never.

I blue all my GUKs in the lab to get xgenes and i spent nearly 50k and got 4 Quire genes. That is not worth it.

Its slow but like I have nothing else to use my lab material on. I basically wait for the antimatter thing to cap out and then I use it all on bios/x-genes. That's how I got Nova and Anti-Man to T2... slowly.

I actually have no idea what I'm gonna do with the anti-matter now that I have Quire at T2. Cards or Uru I guess?

Ghost Panther has a really good T2 ally buff that's very useful for like World Boss or Giant Boss Raid. I team him and Ancient One leadership with Jean Grey to go on killing sprees. So he's not a terrible pick. And he's pretty solid on his own for like upper level Shadowland.

Nick Fury's got a T2 buff too and is supposed to be real strong. He was on my short list of people to use the last mega T2 on but I'm still holding onto it.

Crescent goes to T3 so she could be turned into a big gun, I think. But I don't have her T3ed so I'm not sure how strong she is.

Blue Dragon is pretty good but you could grab her bios for crystals.

I have Nova, AntiMan, and Blue Marvel at T2 and they're all fine but I wouldn't use a ticket on them. I have Sabertooth too and he's pretty strong and is supposed to be top tier with hsi costume, but I dunno.

They're advertising a surprise costume and T3 for Scarlet Witch tomorrow.

Tomorrow is April 1st.

That could be the gag since the Witch is all "chaos" and all. But I always get wary of everything online this time of year.

I hope its real. I already have her gear at +25.

God drat Danger Room still sucks, it also doesn't help that I am pretty sure people are cheating. I keep seeing opponents using multiple skills during battles. Like Bucky should not be using Berserk, Sentry Gun and Fire Rockets all within the same battle. It doesn't help Stryfe become untargetable multiple times during it.

She's definitely the key and its one of those weeks where one character just does ALL the damage and no one else can do jack poo poo. But then I just get crazy stressed if I'm Sharon and I'm scared my T3 skill will get blocked by Stryfe and screw us all.

The gold thing in DR I think is supposed to fire a random special power if you grab it. That may explain multiple powers?

Yeah, I think there's something like that. I definitely vaguely recall some "random skill" note when they reworked it.

edit: Yeah.

I just came back after like 200 days and have a 6* selector to use. I figure I'll use it on one of the new characters I don't have. Any of these worth 6*:

Viper
Taskmaster
Shadow Shell
War Tiger
Gorilla Man
Sword Master
Doctor Voodoo

Also I have the materials to T-3 either Wolverine or Spiderman+Captain America. Should I go for quantity over quality or save my cube fragments and T3 someone else? I'm working on Jean Grey right now but she's only 66.

Shadow Shell and Doctor Voodoo are the best, I think, but neither is a game breaker. I think Shell is "premium" though? So she might be worth a ticket. Not sure.

Cap is a better T3 value than Wolvie and arguably a better T3 depending on costumes. I'd go with him and then work on someone tougher like Jean. Spidey is kind of useless.

shell's the opposite of premium, you get a few hundred of her bios for free from the shield missions.

You in fact get enough to 6* her. I used my ticket on Dr. Voodoo since it was a toss-up between him and Gorilla Man and the animal characters always suck.

The t3 selected they're giving us, is that just going to be for characters you can normally use selectors on?

That's what I'm assuming it will be for, so I'm going to end up with a T3 Iron Man.

Of the choices, the ones I do not have at t3 are Iron Man, Thor, Winter Soldier and Black Panther. I guess I'll be doing Winter Soldier. Shouldn't have been so quick to t3 Cyclops.

My choices are Iron Man, Spider-Man, Ant-Man, and Bucky.

Technically I could pick Sharon Rogers or Carol Danvers as well, but they are both ready to go and only need enough CCF to get there - and a few books for Sharon, too.

I'm leaning Tony Stank. Or maybe Bucky in anticipation of a new TV uniform. Or maybe Ant-Man because I'm never actually going to spend time and resources to get him there.

I would probably do Sharon or Carol anyway. You're still saving all those CCF. Its not as much of a value as if you have to work someone up to 70/4/25 but you're also not really getting a big player with any of those options.

Except maybe Bucky. I have no idea what his deal is. Andyeah, he'll probably get a costume when the show comes.

This batch of rewards is in your inbox, notice tab, tagged as event, from the admins to be claimed daily one at a time. You have to log in on the day between 8am PDT and 7:59am PDT the next day. If you miss a day you are out of luck but can still get the rest on their days. Per this official post the T3 selector should be on Weds April 29th as the final reward.

I'm going to use mine on Thor I think.

Black Widow movie update seems like part of this upcoming update so maybe she gets the T3 and becomes another option for the selector.

Also probably means new costumes for her and Taskmaster and maybe we get Red Guardian and Florence Pugh Widow.

You know what I’d like? That Black Widow from the Peggy Carter show. And Peggy Carter.
