What other dps powers are taking up points in your build?

Armor-piercing shot. That's my boss killer and I find it makes rockets redundant. It definitely packs more of a punch than either rockets or barrage.
I suppose I should give rockets another go, but I find barrage better in almost every situation. It's the ultimate trash killer.
I use a any hero unique
so far the only cases thats happened to me with was nightcrawler with his sword, which is rolled completely for the sword tree, so im just using a betty ross for now, and I dont use punchclops unique either but I cant remember what Im using in that slot, im sure its a cosmic, maybe a epic because I barely played cyclops after 60.but yeah theres so many any hero uniques now, im sure you can find something. I just like the cool procs they have usually, what can I say. also speaking of uniques, im doomed not to have my cyke slave, as I now have uniques on 4 slots on emma (got the chest twice today and the cloak) and still no cyke pet unique
also got a mask for spidey. good day for uniques, well, morning when I playedI use a any hero unique
but yeah theres so many any hero uniques now, im sure you can find something.
Oh lol, well I don't have that many Uniques so I can't always be flexible like that haha
Wolverine starts with spirit problems and then they disappear as you level up. Unleash the beast (spirit to fury) starts off incredibly expensive and not giving much fury, but as it gains points it gives more fury and costs less. At level 40 and with the unique boots, it costs under 10 spirit for a full bar. Wolverine's fury skills (Beserker fury, brutal slash, eviscerate) also don't cost spirit, just fury. With enough +spirit per kill/hit, you can even forgo pym's shrink.
The only spirit spender(s) I use that are non-fury are his heal and his CC break. I use a Ziggeraut to teleport around so I don't even use his movement ability. That's all at 60 though, but even then, I'd say around 40 or so spirit became more or less a non-issue (I weaved Hack N Slash in + UTB to max out fury before striking).

Strange power previews!
Seal of Vishanti
Daggers of Daveroth
Mystic incantations and spells always tend to come in threes, so here's one more.
I use steam so I wouldn't know, but it is a pretty huge download, so I wouldn't be surprised if it took a while in general.

Got my Spider-Man to 60 last night and then started on Ghost Rider.
Dayummm, Ghost Rider looks like he's going to be a lot of fun! Loving a beast mode AoE straight out of the gates. Only made it to chapter three, but he's barely been challenged so far. I'm probably already underleveled for the moment considering I was more comfortable hanging back with Spider-Man and getting a little more overleveled for the next area.
Looking forward to putting more time into him tonight.
Got enough Odin Marks for another Legendary last night, chucked a Gungnir on GR and I've now got enough Pots of Gold for all my other characters So this week(ends) special event has been great. The 10% XP at the least is going to be fantastic for leveling everyone up earlier on.
EDIT: Strange looking sweeeeet!

cant wait for strange.
crap run of xdefs tonight, almost 10 and only 1 unique on colossus this time, and it was a any-hero unique :/ at least its a death seed which seems good for whenever I need a weapon on a hero

I agree with you, you should do what you find to be the most fun. Personally, I prioritize health regen very highly on my items, as I hate using medkits (too lazy to pick up replacements), but I like being able to take a punch.
Despite having leveled Wolverine to 60, I still dont have that Unique belt, but my understanding of it is that Sabretooth isnt there ALL the time, like Cyclops is for Emmas. I feel like he is smothering me, or something
On another note, I found a Cosmic Juggs Medallion last night. The Juggernaut Medallion is one of my favorites (after Madam Hydras), because I love the invincibility.
The few Cosmic Medallions Ive found in the past have been pretty average (Hood, Sinister and Pyro).
Try the Steam version
lol wut

Good news for you, they're going to buff his Medallion and add a Terminal for Juggy with the Strange patch.

Do we know pricing for Strange? 900Gs and 400 splinters is the norm for all advance pack guys right?
Red Arremer
Member
They said it's likely going to be 400 G, but the price is not set in stone yet.
Also Advance Pack heroes are either 400 or 600G.
You mean splinters? Surely he can't just be 400G?

Oh, yeah, splinters. Sorry. It's really late. :S

If my medkit level drops below 45 (I carry a stack of 50... always), I feel like Im running out. I guess conserving consumables in video games is just a habit I have.
Sweet. A damage affix (like Madam Hydras) would be nice.
Unlocked Loki today. Really enjoying his play style. Still testing out the different powers, getting a feel for it, but so far all the skill trees are pretty great. I love how his summons seem like an extension of his attacks. Feels very different from all the other pet classes I have.
stupid broken iphone, cant post at work. anyway, seems like mark V cards will go live this week with th small patch, so advance pack owners get theirs. fingers crossed for hawkeye costume, I bet I get the deadpool one to troll me
also, crafted a couple of costumes, got s.w.o.r.d ms marvel (yay I wasnt feeling classic) and stormtrooper gambit (boo its awful imo)
edit: in case someone missed it, this week`s patch (tomorow or friday, probably friday) will have:
Fixing any bugs from the various bug report forums.
Adding pointers to costume drops with infinite range.
Fixing any tuning flags that @PsiLocke* has found are incorrect.
Fortune Card Mark V (including delivery to Advance Pack owners)
A number of new unique items introduced into the game, where they are needed most. In particular, several "Any Hero" Uniques.
"Any Hero" Unique drop rate increased even more, in anticipation of the new uniques.
A pass on enemy powers to ensure anything that was an area power is definitely tagged as such. This is important because of the many new items that have reduced damage from area attacks.
Fixed the problem with Cupid's Arrows so they can now be enchanted/blessed
Fixed a bug where certain blue enemies in X-Defense weren't dropping credits
Gambit's Royal Flush tagged as an Area power
Tuning pass on Spider-Man's TTK and TTL with about 3 improvements to each one to ensure he's in optimal tuning range against all content.
Made looting items on the ground quicker
Further increase to final loot chest in later waves of X-Defense
and now Im off to bed

Just tried this again. I first played when it in beta, but on release I selected Thing and regretted my choice.
I made a new account and picked Human Torch. He is so much more fun. Zipping around everywhere throwing massive aoe is fun as heck. I'm saving up the splinter things. Who else is fun/similar?

Similar to Human Torch, I would say:
Jean Grey
Storm
Ghost Rider
Scarlet Witch
a few others

I played Ms. Marvel in beta. She was fun, but under powered. Has this changed?
Yes. They have changed/are in the middle of changing everyone. She is very different now.
Changed a lot, she's one of the best characters now
Tragicomedy

Ms. Marvel is right below Iron Man, Storm, and Jean Grey on the DPS scale, but with more survivability. I'd say she's the best "all around" character in the game now, or at least top three.
I would agree. Definitely top-5

I found a cosmic tonight, that has +1 to all powers. It has some decent health regen too, so Im pretty happy with it.
Hopefully DD's Unique gloves wont outclass it.

Just an FYI, but I think they said they are removing the Pot of Gold recipe tomorrow with this week's patch, so it's best to craft them today if you still need to.
What a huge oversight. Well, at least it's fixed now. Soon it will be time to destroy everything with reckless abandon.

Well, Spidey's Sig most certainly got a buff
Live:
TC:
They also took out the whole "webbed status" and made Spider to the Fly a 10 sec buff after using a ranged attack. Spider-Sense now has a non-scaling 8% chance to ignore damage (it used to start at like 2% and scale like crap), and Superior Agility now has a damage negation and rating proc on dodge:
He's certainly more effective, but sadly no more fun than before. Brawl's animation is still the same too =/

I have 12 unbind matrixes in my stash rotting away. meanwhile, my last 4 crafted costumes I had to buy unstables because I havent seen one drop in weeks (as havent most people, there was even a thread on the forums speculating that with runes being on the same loot table as molecules, they have become much rarer). and they are just overall more useful than the matrixes, hence why I would rather have those in the cards.

I've got one Unstable Molecule, got it fairly early in my play time, with Deadpool. Haven't seen one since though.
Got my Ghost Rider to level 29 last night! Can't believe how quickly he's flying up the order. He's great fun. I'll definitely go for 60 with him too I think.
Did a bunch of X-Defense last night which probably helped with my quick leveling. No Uniques though, which was a shame. Hopefully see some of GR's uniques soon.

They are amazing at keeping content, fixes and updates coming.
They definitely are. I'm glad people are out there going crazy on cards and boons and all that stuff to keep it going.

Niiiice.
He looks good fun too when I see him around.
To be honest, all of my random heroes so far, even ones I haven't been hyping, or was slightly disappointed about getting - have been pretty great thus far.
