[Frostinferno]

who does Cable summon? X-Force guys?

Psionic projections of himself.

oh...

cant wait for that tech on gambit when he throws his cards 11111111111111 lol

Don't be crazy, that would actually be neat. Gaz would never do something that cool.

Is someone trying to bill Beta Ray over X-23 cuz that person better bring knives if so.

Yo, Beta Ray Bill was created by the Walt Simonson and gets passed around to fantastic writers like Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning, Kieron Gillen, and Gerry Duggan. Laura gets to spend all her time getting assassinated as a character and thrown around as a disposable love interest by gutter-trash like Dennis Hopeless and Brian Micheal Bendis.

I'm just saying, if Wolverine Except Waifu can be a stand alone playable character, then it's completely justifiable for Thor Except Horse to be one too. Same for every other stand alone character that usually gets stuck as a costume or team-up.

Spoiler

Real talk, X-23 is in my top 10 marvel characters and Bill doesn't even come close, and hearing early on when they started working on her as a weekend project is what convinced me to try the game again after the really boring Beta.

 

[Pics_nao]

So when's the Spider Gwen enhanced coming out?

Spoiler

I totally didn't buy the advanced team up pack just for that. I would never. I-idiots.

ive been so out of it with the game lately I didnt know this was a thing:

Andrew Hair ‏@andrewhair 7m7 minutes ago
Thanks @jeffgerstmann for mentioning controller support coming to @MarvelHeroes on the @GiantBombCast. Can't wait to show it off soon!

I mean you guys were talking about a PS4 version or something a few days ago, but I didnt know they were adding controller support to the PC one. Like, Diablo 3 never did right?

RIP Marvel Heroes.

Ah thanks for the reminder to log in for the daily reward, though.

There's definitely a lull right now, but that'l happen every so often.

Kepow wants you to make him guildmaster.

He said that you told him he's the one person you would never let be guildmaster.

Why are you so racist, Inky?

 

[inky]

Can't be racist when I don't even know what race kepow is. Texan is not a race btw.

 

[Xevren]

Is that dummy perma banned?

 

[Volimar]

Hoping for more activity once 2016 releases.

 

[Anoregon]

Texan is not a race btw.

Disagree

Is that dummy perma banned?

I hope not!

 

[Drayco21]

Is that dummy perma banned?

He is. According to him, he was banned for a couple months initially, and then logged on to a friend's account from home, and got perma'd for ghosting on an alt.

Kepows gonna Kepow.

 

[Noray]

There's definitely a lull right now, but that'l happen every so often.

All the endgame content that's there now is bad and there's so much redundancy. Once you're done doing the rep grind and have all the 69 recipes, there's kind of not a lot of incentive left to keep playing. To be fair it took over 1400 hours for me to get to a place where I feel like I have no reason to play unless there's a new character (or fkkn DANGER ROOM comes out and is good, just sayin').

 

[Red Arremer]

So I'm the only sucker left, huh?

RIP Marvel Heroes.

You have no right to say that if you only log on for a minute a day to collect daily gifts, you jerk.
I was playing all day yesterday, grinding up Thing to 60.

 

[Volimar]

I got Thing up to 52-53...

He's more fun now, but The Fantastic Four tree seems kind of dumb. I only really use the Reed Hammer skill.

 

[Red Arremer]

I only took the Yancy Street Gang power from that tree because I like the pie chucker. His damage output is pretty good now, though.

 

[Indignate]

I've been playing PSO.

An objectively better game.

 

[Red Arremer]

No.

 

[-Deadpool-]

Have like 3000 Cosmic Worldstones that I haven't used, so this week has been a quiet week for me.

 

[Jtrizzy]

I wish ESO would.

They are adding it, supposedly by the end of the month. Glad to see it's coming to this as well, I might have to play some of these new characters I bought but haven't played (Ant Man, Vision)

 

[Gothos]

Today is Cable patch? It's the only thing that right now can make me come back to the game. That and Iron Fist

 

[Queen of Hunting]

Should be nrxt week if they give him proper testing

In other news what happen to night crawlers qol was mentioned coming soon back in feb

According to amthua he is in a perfect place he posted a hero roster pic with colors for who is ok etc green fine yellow just looked at red to be coming

That pic was strictly in reference to hero-specific unique items, not overall hero strength/viability. NC had an item review recently.

jean already lknocked down from top tier lol

ODIN’S BOUNTY EVENT
The Odin’s Bounty event returns! The event rotation will begin at 12:01 AM PDT Friday, August 14th! The full rotation schedule will be posted later today.

Bosses will drop Chests of Odin's Bounty. These chests are loot boxes that you can collect and then open later for an epic lootsplosion! Chests of Odin's Bounty have a high chance to contain Runes and Odin Marks, as well as a chance to drop the Mysterious Crimson Box, which contains rare boss-specific artifacts. Odin's Bounty Boosts are back as well and include a jackpot chance!

Additionally, everyone has a rare chance to receive Odin's Blessing, which gives your chests special jackpot loot! Odin's Bounty Potions have been known to increase your chances of receiving Odin's Blessing.

TUNING CORNER
JEAN GREY:

We love Jean very much, but we need to take her down slightly to the realm of other heroes. We will be monitoring her very closely and adjusting as needed.

These changes will probably put her in the top 5 heroes, but won't have her so far above in first place that the entire game has to be retuned.

Telekinetic Throw now gains more damage, critical and brutal chance while Dark Phoenix is active.
Phoenix Drain now gains the execute affix while Dark Phoenix is active. Choosing the Omega-Level Mutant specialization grants this power additional critical and brutal damage.
Psychic Hammer now grants this power the execute affix instead of granting critical and brutal damage when choosing the Omega-Level Mutant specialization.
Dark Phoenix is no longer affected by power duration.
Kinetic Wave/Psychokinetic Implosion force field’s percent of maximum health reduced.
Kinetic Wave healing while Dark Phoenix is active reduced.
Dark Phoenix (Phoenix form) healing boost to other powers reduced.
Small damage reductions to:

Psychokinetic Implosion
Kinetic Wave
Phoenix Inferno (and the DoT's which stack with it)
Mind Crush (Phoenix only)
Dark Phoenix explosion (Jean only)


Next Up For Tuning Corner

We have several heroes to review before Red AXIS Raids goes live. Look for feedback threads in the coming weeks, we'll make sure to promote them heavily. For today, check out Luke Cage's official forum thread.

BUG FIXES & OTHER CHANGES
Very low tier runes will no longer have edge pointers to prevent screen spam. We may eventually make this an option, but we've removed it for now based on a player suggestion. Let us know how you feel about it.

Fixed an animation issue with Juggernaut's Rope-a-Dope power on remote clients.

Fixed a respawning issue in Brood Jungle in Chapter 7.

Tornadoes summoned by Storm's Sudden Tornadoes should no longer 'roll' when moving, nor display health bars.

Fixed an issue where X-23's Whirling Dervish was displaying the wrong icon on the buff bar.

Updated description to specify using "Full Auto" instead of "heavy machine gun" in Punisher's "Something Like Peace" achievement.

Updated description to specify needing an Epic or Cosmic Holo-Hulk Medallion for the Collection achievement “Mean Green Medallion”.

Fixed an issue where the game audio was not muted when the game window is not the main focus (such as after alt-tabbing).

Fixed an issue that could cause a power to fail to activate when used repeatedly in rapid succession.

fixed an issue where the damage of Team-Up Pirate Deadpool's Boom Goes the Dynamite power was not increasing with additional points.

Scarlet Witch and Star-Lord no longer display incorrect power names or tooltip descriptions for various powers when the language is set to Portuguese.

ofcourse doom nerf waits because sales

 

[Frostinferno]

You mean Jean knocked down to top tier. Sub-5 minute TTK is nothing to complain about.

And yes, Doom and Scarlet Witch are both getting nerfs in the future too. Make use of them in this state while you can.

Punisher still feels weak and squishy to me. It doesn't help that I can't seem to get his uniques to drop.


Wow, I don't enjoy Daredevil AT ALL.

 

[Queen of Hunting]

looool they never learn with the gamble shit

Note, the Store Team will be hosting Mystic related promotions and a Mystic Mystery box, but we'll let them announce that type of stuff once their plans are set in stone.

mystic event for limbo

FEATURING:
1963 Legendary Limbo Scrolls
From 63 to Eternity
Heroes Wanted
Asgard Supports the War Effort
Experience Counts
Finding Items - Magic and Otherwise
New Mission: Strike on Limbo
Mystic Mayhem Invades
Bloodstone Amulets
Mayhem Demons
Mystic Achievements
Achievement Mayhem!


1963 LEGENDARY LIMBO SCROLL
1963 was the year Marvel introduced the Marvel Universe to the legendary location of Limbo in an issue of The Avengers #2. ('63 was an amazing year for comics, featuring not just the Avengers, but X-Men, Fantastic Four, Nick Fury and Spider-Man all featured prominently)

To celebrate that first issue in which Limbo appeared, we're using the same database tech as the Vibranium Ticket promotion: There will be 1963 Legendary Limbo Scrolls to be discovered during Mystic Mayhem.

If you find a Legendary Limbo Scroll, you can open it immediately a collection of sweet icons, including something Crimson, something Blue, something Ultimate and something Legendary.

In addition, 63 of those Limbo Scrolls will be doubles, with double everything inside.

These Legendary Limbo Scrolls give in-game items and are available in all regions, with no paperwork or delay. As soon as you find them, you can open them up. They are very well marked, you can't miss 'em.

For the duration of Mystic Mayhem, the rare 10-drop Eternity Splinters will be joined on all loot tables with Bundles of 63 Eternity Splinters.

The drop rate of the 10-pack bundles will also be doubled for the duration of Mystic Mayhem.

HEROES WANTED
The demon hordes will not be put down easily - we'll need every hero we can get.

To that end, during the full duration of Mystic Mayhem, Hero Tokens can again drop anywhere in the world, in and out of Limbo, from any enemy.

It wouldn't be Limbo without a chance at a Hero Token.



ASGARD SUPPORTS THE WAR EFFORT
Asgard has a vested interest in keeping the Demon Lord N’astirh from harming the innocent people of Earth. To that end, they have entrusted the Asgardian Runemasters with helping the brave heroes who are defending themselves against this assault from Limbo.

For the duration of Mystic Mayhem, thanks to the hard work and solidarity of the Asgardians, the chance of acquiring the very rarest Asgardian Runes will be increased tenfold. These coveted ancient runes are still extremely rare and useful items, but perhaps the heroes will have a chance of acquiring one or two during this time of need.



EXPERIENCE COUNTS
To help defeat the demons of N’astirh and stop the invasion, all heroes will receive a 63% server side experience boost throughout the entire Mystic Mayhem event.

This applies to all zones, on Earth and Limbo and will stack multiplicatively with a player’s other experience boosts.



FINDING ITEMS - MAGIC AND OTHERWISE
To aid heroes in acquiring the tools they need to repel the Demon invasion, Dr. Strange has summoned as massive, powerful enchantment on Earth that will assist heroes in finding rare and special items.

Both Rare Item Find and Special Item Find receive a 63% server side boost for the duration of Mystic Mayhem.

NEW MISSION - STRIKE ON LIMBO
A new permanent mission launches with Mystic Mayhem: Strike On Limbo

The mission is available from Magik in Xavier’s Institute.

You’ll be asked to help lead a strike on N'astirh in Limbo, challenging the Demon Lord himself, in his domain with his allies and henchman awaiting your challenge.

This is a new permanent, optional mission and may be completed by each hero in your roster.

Completing the mission has several awards, mostly importantly a permanent +3 Power Point upgrade and +63 Health Upgrade.


You can choose to complete this mission when Mystic Mayhem launches in the very near future, or wait until Mystic Mayhem comes around again in the event rotation. You can't keep a Demon Lord down forever...

INFERNAL LIMBO - DEFEATING THE DEMON LORD
For the duration of the event, heroes may access a special gate to N'astirh's base in Limbo.

Infernal Limbo is his specific domain and he's recruited beings from several dimensions as guards.

You must fight through these guards and take down N'astirh before he escapes. Time is limited.

Level 60 heroes may access this gate to Infernal Limbo whenever they wish, with no restrictions.

If a hero defeats each encounter within the time limit and defeats N'astirh himself, they are given the opportunity to complete a random follow-up mission, only available during Mystic Mayhem.

The random follow-up missions are given by Doctor Strange, Magik, Clea, Forge or Ezekiel. Each has a different series of objectives and award several Mayhem Coffers.

There is a rare follow-up mission awarded by Agent Stan Lee himself that players may encounter.

MYSTIC MAYHEM INVADES
During the Mystic Mayhem event, bosses have a chance of dropping an extra Mystic Chest of loot. The only catch, they'll be swarming with invading Mayhem Demons. You were warned.



BLOODSTONE AMULETS
A new Unique neck slot item can be looted from enemies during Mystic Mayhem, with the best chance from invading Demon forces (throughout the world) and from Mayhem Coffers.

Each amulet has 5 bonuses, representing the 5 souls stored inside. Heroes will decide for themselves whether to add these items to their arsenal of gear, whether to trade in several for a new one or whether to save them in their improved Stash vaults.

MAYHEM DEMONS
Magik is all to familiar with these ferocious demons. They can appear throughout the world and in Limbo. They must be put down before they harm innocent people.

Defeating a Mayhem Demon in any zone has a chance of awarding heroes with Mayhem Demonblood, a new artifact that allows heroes a taste of Demonblood, at a price...

MYSTIC ACHIEVEMENTS
With every new Mystic Mayhem event, we'll introduce a new Mystic Achievement.

The Mystic Achievement for each Mystic Mayhem will contain a clue directly in the achievements UI panel. The clue will help true detectives down the path of solving the mystic mystery.

This means every month or two, we'll have a new mystery to solve.

If at least one hero completes the Mystical Achievement for the current Mystic Mayhem event, then the 63% server-side Experience boost, SIF boost and RIF boost will carry over for an extra day into the next event (likely stacking with whatever server-side bonus the next event has, which is very much Boost Mayhem).

If zero players decipher the mystic clue and solve the achievement, then the same achievement will return for the next event, with more details added to the clue.

The goal is to launch the inaugural Mystic Mayhem event before the end of August.

To help us prepare, we just activated Limbo on test center (right now!) - check it out in the waypoint menu and let us know how the fights feel.

1 x Triple Pot
