So I'm loving TU2.0, but have run into a minor problem. So my deal is... I want to play a team up with who I want to play a team up with. I don't put anyone on passive and just have guys teamed up that are fun. Drax with Hulk, Quicksilver with Scarlet Witch, Doom(bot) with Doom(bot), etc.

So the minor annoyance is in a few cases I need to keep separate pieces of gear for a single team up in the case that a character I want to play them with doesn't match another character I want to play them with. Take Spider-Man. Spider-Man with Hulk is going to be geared differently than Spider-Man with Hawkeye. With heroes it's easy because we have hero specific stashes. With team ups it's just all sort of mashed together. I mean really thinking about it, they've always handled team up gear storage miserably. Now that actual itemization for team ups is actually improved, it just casts a light on how bad gear management is for team ups.

Oh well, first world problems.

Well technically they gave you an entire free extra inventory when team-ups were released and to their credit they let you put whatever you wanted in it. I also believe they are going to add a team-up stash at some point.

What is best site with some high level info about the game?
I've tried to find something on google, but everything was subpar or just pointed me to boards.

Really the only site out there is this one, http://marvelheroes.info/

But I'd assume you were referring to that one as subpar. There are builds and theorycrafting there, but a lot of the theorycrafting - as was pointed out - occurs on the main forums on the game's official website.

Its only for items. I meant more about mechanics of the game, tips about farming, leveling etc.
Something like PoE wiki - http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Path_of_Exile_Wiki

Oh sorry, I thought high level meant like build theories and damage calculators.

People pretty much recommend holo-sim/midtown/icp for levels 1-20, and then after 20 just follow the legendary quests until you hit 60.

Farming would be getting geared enough to do Cosmic terminals, (which on some characters you can be ready to complete immediately upon hitting 60 without gearing very much) then farming cosmic terminals or one-shot terminals until you get the artifacts and uniques you want.

Once you are geared pretty well you can start looking at raids. It's also good to do the shared quests and Genosha Liberation weekly and daily quests to get hero's and protector's commendations which are the currencies for item upgrades.

It's a lot more simple than PoE in terms of progression.

Also this section of the boards: https://forums.marvelheroes.com/categories/gameplay-guides
If you're looking for specific information you can always just ask us in this thread. We're usually pretty helpful!

I'll have enough coms to get my last 66 recipe once GLF weekly resets, so I am looking forward to that. Pretty close to my third 69 too.

I mean, i get the concept of criticals and brutal strikes in Marvel, but i dont know how high can You push them.
I understand concept attributes, but what role they get in end game.
How 'gain xxx on hit' affixes works.
How important is Attack Speed in general for builds.
What should i focus on to max - base damage rating, elemental damage rating, % damage modifiers and how they stack?

On other hands, what are benefits of challenges vs zones like midtown madness. What is different in killing elites vs bosses on those zones? etc

---
Yeah, i know i can ask here, but its faster to first search for info somewhere and filter simpler question and ask for additional details :)

I'll definitely check legendary quests, because terminals didnt get as much exp as Midtown Madness runs did.
And why are there some chests drops on midtown madness? When do they happen? I havent found anything about a special event in news.

Ps. This sub-board seems to be decent at first look.

Midtown madness is every monday for that day every boss in midtown drops them chests.

Most people aim for crit % to be around 50 - 55% after that its heavy diminishing returns.

If im a mental hero ill get my crit n brut up then go for mental dmg etc. Alot of x on hit have internal cooldowns of up to 3 seconds. Only one that doesn't is relic of lemuria.

Im at work but many people in the official forums for heroes have skill calculators n how x effects work etc

"Midtown Madness" occurs on Mondays in the Midtown Patrol zone. The week before the anniversary they actually had a full week of Midtown Madness. This is when the extra chests drop off of bosses in that zone.

The MH compendium (google doc/first link) and other discussions in the gameplay guide section of the forums is probably what you want. The other problem is that the devs change things quite a bit - for instance, the dodge mechanic has been changed multiple times since I started playing a year and a half ago. People try to keep up with it, and some of the devs even help with dps calculators on the forums, but it's hard when things change all the time.

I am mostly casual and just try to get gear with the "big numbers" so I already can't help you much more.

...and Queen's got ya too!

Yeah in Diablo 3 they eventually had to swap Dodge to a straight %mitigation stat, because "take no damage or get 1-shot" is not a good mechanic.

It never is because one shot end game mechanics means no one will bother gear for utility or defense because u can't counter one shots.

Its my main issue with marvel heroes. Its why everyone hust goes crit n brut because.

Kepow pulled a doom teamup from the cards you got him, so you should either be proud or extremely upset about what you've done.

lol yeah kepow has gifted me a couple of cards over the last year or so. Always a single future foundation card, always results in a disappointing boost. It's like he knows.

I keep trying to get him to gift me the thing fear itself costume due to how much he used to say he loved thing, because if he really loved thing he would do that.

if Hyperion is in before Sentry i'ma be so mad

and because I really want a SCS I'm gonna guess Queen has spent around 4000 pounds? Queen of Boosts, after all.

also someone offered a SWGN and an SCS for my Iron Legion Armor Sheath. Didn't take him up on it, not sure if it's a great offer. I think I want a Lizard serum at least.

if the character that has been around for over 2 years and all signs point for them to continue pushing is in and the character that nobody remembers and will never return isnt in makes you mad?
