I'm totally confused on Magik as a summoner. I don't get it. Are we talking about the same character? She's a sorceress. I mean, I suppose her sword and armor are kind of summons. What am I missing? Was she revamped as a summoner?

She's not a sorceress, shes a teleporter and the queen of Limbo (hence the summons / demons)

Edit: she trained with Strange but I don't think that was sorcery training but more about controlling her demon persona. I might be wrong there

Magik is a powerful sorceress whose powers were at their peak whilst in Limbo. Whilst in Earth’s dimension, her magical abilities were more limited, to astral projection, sensing mystical presences, and summoning her Soulsword.

I like the concept, either way. If she is the queen of summoning, count me the hell in.

I guess wielding the soulsword in itself would be an act of sorcery indeed, my bad. Damn muties adding sorcery to their mutant powers

If gaz was really amazing, having the silver surfer's board equipped would change the flying power animation.

Fantastic Four #57. I'll apologize in advance for the garbage Marvel Unlimited screen caps.

In summary, Silver Surfer is an idiot with a very low IQ. Doctor Doom sends him a royal summons. It's one of those, "We saw you flying by the castle and wanted to say hey" things. Silver Surfer has never met with human royalty, so naturally he accepts the meeting.

Doctor Doom proceeds to trick Silver Surfer, absorb the power cosmic, and kick his ass.

Doom then goes hog wild on the board, because why not?

Now, I would say kicking Silver Surfer's ass is impressive. Then again, a freaking Doombot trashed his pansy ass. Silver Surfer is bad, and the fact that Kepow ran a full cosmic prestige on his tells you everything you need to know about him.

Surfer movement build is super legit. Fuck cosmic prestige tho. 52 now. Open more than a stash full of Odin boxes for like, 2 parts of the xp bar. fml
 
10:41 Amthua_Gazillion: doody, the simple answer is: I make items. But I don't set any loot tables. If I was to put items on loot tables...we'd most likely end up with Emergency Maintenence.

fuck im in love

Ms. Marvel

Stellar Beam - has been converted to a spirit spending power that deals 25% more damage after spending Photonic Energy. Also deals slightly less damage to each target it pierces after the first.
Photonic Devastation - now gains 1% damage per 1% attack speed, but can no longer “Beam Weave”
Radiant Cascade - now provides near unlimited Photonic Energy for its duration, allowing Ms Marvel to continuously cast her Photonic spenders
Photonic Wave - DoT duration flattened to 8s
Energy Infusion - Power has been cut and functionality merged to other powers. Active healing component moved to Infused Regeneration. Spirit component has been moved to Energy Absorption and now passively triggers when you spend Photonic Energy.
Flight of the Warbird - functionality has been moved to Kree Toughness, and power removed
Cruising Altitude - has been renamed Flight of the Warbird

also dec for moonknight the changes are now

Moon Knight

His version of the Ignore Pain damage negation mechanic has been changed as follows:
10% damage negation per 10% missing Health, up to maximum of 60% (at 40% remaining health)
Avatar of Vengeance can restore up to 40% health (up from 30%)
Damage rating, critical rating, and critical damage rating on Tools/Avatar of Vengeance increased so that the values previously given at 30% health are now given at 40% health.

also big news for team ups

Angel who comes out for anniversary they spoke about him on stream and said he will always fly around when out and cannot be damaged due to that.

It's only a temporary issue, though. A month from now people will have all the teamups they care about at 60.

technically yea. cant stop me having a profile pic of me though,

maybe every post i should change my avatar lol

i wouldnt mind if it was someone who actually plays the game often and posts in this thread often but they have like 7 posts in this thread total and most being last year
 
Just spent a bit of time with Doom in the TC. Basically went with the Ranged and Sig powers. Liked him. Pretty flashy, quick with the TP and seems to do good damage. Looking forward to playing on release.

Also, I was gonna buy doom pre-order from the website, but I realized that since it is 10% off, I am actually better off just waiting to buy it for 2000 G when he launches as I got a $50 G bundle with 15% bonus. Assuming my math is right, that is actually a slightly better bang for my buck, and I'll still have like 4500G after snagging his pack, which is plenty for some stash tabs and costumes.

KePow is out there sobbing while reading this thread. Occasionally putting his hand on the monitor screen asking everyone to stop hurting.

No, he's playing Witcher 3.

He's been on MH lately too. I'm steam buddies with him, I was talking to him last night about stuff on TC.

ALSO I just confirmed my math, buying Doom bundle for 2000g will cost me $15.81. SAVE OVER TWO DOLLARS! I should be the secretary of the treasury. (that's exchequer for Queen.)

I'm also steam buddies with him and I talk to him all the time and invite him to play dota so he can decline. Anyways, I'm pretty sure our friendship is greater but I'm not the one who's trying to turn this into a competition.

Are you factoring the discount though? You might be saving money now, but you're most likely losing money in the long run by not buying things on sale but at full price instead.

also dec for moonknight the changes are now.

I have no more complaints, this works fine. I have to wonder why they even changed it though. They nerfed him hugely then changed it to 10% less damage negation but you can be at 40% health while fighting instead of 30%.

Seems like a whole lot of nothing, though possibly even a buff if you still have the balls to play at 30% health you'll get more CDR and CHR than before but 10% less negation.

Edit: Now that I look at it, his negation scaled with points spent in his passive. Since it's all set it is just a normal poorly scaling def passive only worth 1 point.

Mr. Fantastic

10% damage negation removed from H.E.R.B.I.E., Elastic Body now has 20% damage negation

Pretty convenient. I hate having to remember to summon that little shit

yeah, I was looking at the doom pre-sale.. but with the current G sale (at the $200 level) I'll end up paying 1390G for him (well, 2000G, which will have cost me ~$13.91)

FWIW, the $200 is effectively a 31% storewide discount. Short of the super rare 50% it's the best you will get (not counting the BOGO random as it's.... random)

$200 = 25000G (25% bonus) x 15% bonus = 28,750G = $.00695 per G (as opposed to the base 1¢ per G)

The preorder discount still loses to using G's bought during a bonus sale when it comes to bang for the buck. Standard Doom bundle price from the website is $20, the 10% preorder discount makes him $18. Having bought 6350G for $50, buying him for 2000G will have cost me $15.81.

As borghe mentioned in the post above mine,buying decent sized G bundles during a 15% bonus sale effectively discounts the real-money cost of everything in the G store by a set amount. For the $50 bundle, it's about 26%.

Based on how fast it maxes legendaries, Cosmic Taskmaster/Kingpin during the end of the omega event would level those very very quickly. And I'd imagine they'll have some silly boosts going on during the anniversary.

I picked up Magik last night, there might be a better team-up sale during the event but I'd like to have her available to hang out with Doom.

The G bundle actually wins over everything, because (with patience/timing) it stacks with all of the in-game store sales. So I didn't even hesitate grabbing the x-stuff this week I wanted to round my collection out. Just wish there were some more Jean costumes. Or an Inferno Madelyne skin :p
