Good news everyone.

As for Security Features, we have an upcoming change that will render high value items undroppable. Currently, compromised accounts are dropping items rather than trading them, so we are not going to allow someone to drop your GotK, only trade it. If someone trades it away, we instantly know where it goes and can ban all associated accounts (and even force those accounts to trade it back to you!)
We're also working on item restore for those who have lost items already and have been archiving your item logs to do so. After the holiday a forced password reset is planned in order to protect any players who might be using a password shared with other services who aren't aware. We've upped the requirements on our passwords considerably. The next step will be email verification and of course, a two-phase or two-factor authentication system.
If your account is compromised and they gift your Gs away, 1) that would be very stupid of them since we can see exactly where it goes and MTX items are not tradeable, so they'd have to use a main account not a mule, and 2) we will easily refill your Gs.

This is great to hear, hopefully there will be less attacks after those measures. Also glad to hear I might get my items back! Been trying trade away my Spiderman Serum overpriced but no one was biting >>.
Venom is pretty fun, his alt costume looks great but I prefer the black visuals of his default, hopefully Toxin will be awesome in both aspects. A bit dissapointed in his web attacks which are pretty much direct copies of Spidermans, and most of the powers they changed last minute looked better before the change.

So, after my dissapointment with how unfun Venom turned out to be I decided to level up Jugg and HOLY SHIT, isn't this guy FUN! Great damage, great gameplay and on top of it he's fast and running MM or terminals with him is fucking great :) Highly recommended!

venom is basically inbalanced and will face a nerf soon. i can get some of his skills down from 70 ichor cost to 17 by using a magneto medal and through omega and it makes him completey overpowered.

That sounds great and who cares. I should try it.

heres what works for me

cosmic kurse cannot kill me at all

my artifacts arent bis ofcourse for this build im sure but so far this build just wrecks everything and i havent died or ever been close period. the insane cost reduction on deadly maw just makes it so stupid and in close range it hit multiple targets.

my omegas are also there which is just pure dps and strength for more insanity. trust me i dont need more defense than what i have his passive and uniques and lemuria far sustain me

Man I am liking Venom a lot. Really happy that I dig his playstyle since he is one of my fav characters. (Eddie Brock 4 lyfe)

I don't even have any of the big cost reduction shit mentioned above and I am still having a blast.

You can improve your damage just putting one point in the first (health regen) passive and putting those 20 points (can take one from web swing) in Dark Tendrils which is a very good filler to get ichor insanely fast, making the cost reductions not very important.

That's pretty much the build I've been using.

I disagree he's unbalanced though, not when there are heroes like Rogue/Thor/Ghost Rider. They also never die but do significantly more damage than Venom.
 
This is a public service announcement from your friendly neighborhood lurker.

Do you have an 1) Ultimate Upgrade Box (it looks like a plain brown box?) 2) a starter hero that you want but don't have the funds for?

Switch to said starter hero, use the Ultimate Upgrade Box, then look and see what's in your inventory now :)

Wait what?

If this sounds like what I think it sounds like, it can't possibly be legal.

I already had all the starter heroes except for one so I can't really abuse it more than I already have.

I should still be like taken to court though.

But you can only use the Ultimate thing in level 11 heroes, and the starters you dont own can only be leveled to 10.

So how is that even possible?

Got back from a long day of work and found Kepow had sent me a Fortune Card. Brought a huge smile to my face- you're good people, man, don't let anyone tell you any different.

You still have to let them call you a racist tho

It is what you think and as of 5 minutes ago it still worked. Got a brand new Cap from it

I just did it, got a free Luke Cage. Sweet Christmas indeed.

I opened one of the Ultimate Upgrade Boxes they were giving away at the Anniversary at Level 1. Seems like there's no level restriction on those.

The one I have has this level 11 limit. Sigh. :(

Hahah holy shit, I had 3 upgrade tokens so I now have colossus, torch, and either cap or luke cage (cant decide on the last one)

I cant partake on these shenanigans bcause I have everyone :( #firstworldproblems

also you dont need any fancy build or gear combination to realise Venom wll be nerfed soon, you just need to get to lvl 30 and use his signature for example which is ridiculous

I caved to the exploit and now I own Rocket Raccoon and Punisher. I chose Rocket for the pet synergy and Frank because I landed an Omega Effect costume a ways back. It's pretty cool, but if I get into him I'll probably want the classic white boots and gloves.

Gurk couldn't get the exploit working earlier, does it work with upgrades bought for 200 splinters at the vendor or do you all have 6 month old ult upgrade tokens you're using.

This bug was reported in the test forums before the starter hero to 10 thing was implemented so they saw it coming but didn't fix it. Or maybe they made all new ult upgrade tokens unusable on them but old ones still do?

Edit: only works with 6 month old anniversary ult upgrades...
 
Shouldn't you be concerned about getting in trouble?

If they try anything we can just pull the "I thought it was a feature not a bug!" I mean devs do that to us all the time, right!?

I totally got Cage and Colossus using the exploit as I had some old ult tokens sitting in my stash.

I got Rocket, Colossus and Human Torch with the three anniversary boxes I'd been saving. If they let me keep them, awesome. If not, no harm no foul.
 
I ended up getting Cap and Rocket with it. I honestly think there are so few of those boxes laying around and because it was the Starter Heroes I don't think anything will happen.

So you used a token to get it? I am confused.

I agree with you on that.

This morning however, people are posting 30s TTK on Venom.

Just go to the trade channel to look for a vib core. Vib core are definitely the least popular.

full spell slinging ranged Loki, as opposed to summon Loki, is actually fun, maybe I wont hate him anymore

I really hate summon Loki :(

I really need to finish my omegas. I'm like 5997 or something. With more tabs releasing omegas will become more valuable too, because of having more good nodes to invest in rather than having to start taking just ok ones.

Hard to accurately compare my builds/gearing to ttk records when I am missing a not insignificant amount of them.
 
Got my Venom to 60 over the weekend. Still can't believe how awesome he is.

I'm a massive fanboy, so I was probably always going to enjoy him, but they'd totally nailed Venom IMO.

Additionally, I was blown away by how durable he is. I hit 60, and immediately threw him into a Cosmic Kurse. Only one piece of level 60 gear, only two of his uniques (and again, like a level 35 and a 47 or something), nothing really optimal - and I managed full bounty Kurse without a death.

Blown all my MM/ICP/Bounty boxes on him, but still missing two of his Uniques (so many damn dupes haha). He's in such a good place though. And while he's not faster than my Psylocke, he's just as fun for doing Cosmics, so I'll probably alternate between the two now for my daily SQ running.


Also like the new March to Axis One Shot. I think those things are great, can't wait until there's a lot more of them. Nice having another opportunity each day to grab some Eyes/Hearts. I'm almost at my first Heart recipe and I should have my third Eye recipe by the weekend! :)
