Figures that the weekend Magik makes it in I'm going away on a month+ long work trip.
Worst time to get a break from the game.
On the bright side, at least you will be back just in time for the release of the best character in the game.

Looks like Black Widow is getting one of the better Level 52 reviews. Now the question is, Thunderbolts costume or Fear Itself?

Stabbing the shit out of enemies with Punisher is fun. Especially Frost Giants, Magneto and Pyro. All of whom, I hate >

Loving the team ups. Glad I got them all. Been rocking Falcon all day. Seems pretty solid unless you're up against the tougher bosses. Really cool having a team up all the time though.
Unique bonus has been awesome. Got three Cap specific uniques in about 4 Xdef's this afternoon so I have all of his uniques now. Pretty good before level 60.

Sure can. No dramas.
Makes for a nice bonus in Xdef.
Most of the parties we were rolling with today had the teamups active.
thats weird but cool

ugh my average framerate has dropped to like 54 since they introduced team ups.
I would do the biggest eyeroll in the history of eyerolls, but Im afraid my eyes would pop out of my head if I did
Wtf... don't be like those GAF'ers who cry like a baby just because they drop a couple frames below 60 for a few seconds.
Cmon man, those people are fucking crazy

It was mostly a joke, but it has noticeably gotten worse...and it's never run smooth as butter.
Those demonspawn dogs or whatever that you can't move through really need to be fixed though.

At complete max settings, it only drops for me in big MM or XDEF fights with several other human players around.
I run FRAPS a lot so I can see exactly what the framerate is... it does dip into the 30s sometimes in those situations. Not ideal but not a dealbreaker.
Other than those big fights though, I'm above 60 always.

I wish there was a way to speed up the splinter drop timer.

Best X-def final chest I've ever seen. With like 400% RIF bonus though, and still no unique
I got Magik, and she's pretty cool. Team-Ups are a fun addition. But holy hell, gear for them is rare, and when it drops it's white or green. Haven't seen a single blue/purple piece, other than 2 blues from the daily login rewards.

Neither blue nor purple gear for them are in the game yet. Aside from the blue login bonuses.

Derp. I assume that's not working as intended?

I've gotten a whopping 1 unique out of the final chest. 0 rare runes, 0 useful cosmics.

Speaking of Uniques, wtf is up with any hero uniques? I was playing as Strange and got THREE Amulet of Rights, one from handing in 4 identical Uniques for a Unique useable by my current hero. I took that to mean a hero specific unique, and I got my third copy of that shitty thing. Like, what are the odds of 3 of the same any hero uniques dropping within hours? Seems like they're weighted or something.
That sucks, is that a bug?
I forget, is frost an insider, or just...keeps up more than anyone?
wait he was repping Reaper of Souls, cant be an insider
they buffed any hero uniques drop rates a few patches ago, it IS weighted

Got Cap to 60 last night and ended up buying Cyclops & the Phoenix costume. Looks awesome.
Enjoying Cyk so far. That Ricochet Blast thing is amazing. No spirit cost?!?! Wow. I just roll in, few blasts of that, roll to the next group - wash, rinse, repeat. It's kinda monotonous, but holy hell it makes for quick levelling. Up to L25 already in maybe a couple hours, and purely doing story mode. He's going to be quick once I do a story run and start MM/Xdef.
Thinking about grabbing Strange later this week.
EDIT: Can anyone tell me what the Visual Effect is that has fire around the character's head? Want to get that for Cyk too.

Guess it's probably best to hit the Trade panel for this? Haven't seen one drop yet in ~200 hours.
I think those are from Fortune Card mark 1, I always sell them.

Oh really? Awesome, thanks mate.
SuperScottyBee in game.
I'm in AU, so I'll be on in about 5-6 hours time. How does that sit with you?
Oh wow, I didn't know they had Deadpool in Australia. I'll be sleeping and I won't be back on the game for another like 20 hours.
Do you play the game through Steam? I can add you there to see if you're on

Intentional. They're going to add blue/purple versions separately.

Hahaha. I, myself, am neither of those, but that's all I can say on that matter. And yes, RoS has the majority of what little free time I have on lock down for the time being.

I'm thinking the horse one might be Beta Ray Bill. Could be wrong since hes not really a horse but I cant think of anyone else.

Beta Ray Bill could be being readied to release alongside Nova after their recent comic team-up. Nova even joked about him looking like a horse alien.

I was gonna buy Magik no matter what because fkkn MAGIK, dude, but I'm waiting for the next batch of team-ups to spend my remaining Gs. Fuck this incarnation of Spider-Man forever, such an annoying moron.
I don't know about you guys, but I've kind of stopped buying costumes because I just can't stick to 1 character in this game. So I kind of regret a lot of the money I've spent on costumes in that sense. I see it for a bit, and then it's sitting there. I kind of hope at some point you'll be able to use any of your heroes as team-ups with the costumes you've got equipped (pipe dream, I know).

I don't think I regret buying any costumes, maybe Ronin Hawkeye because their "fake scarcity chase costume" tax is kinda idiotic, and he is not one of my mains or anything. That $13 would've been better spent on other things, but the rest of his costumes suck, except for Kate I guess.
For the ones who are or will be my mains (Strange, Thor, IM, Ms Marvel, SW, etc.) I don't mind having a few costumes to switch it up here and there. I wish double specs was already a thing so I could at least put them to use beyond the visual aspect.
That said, I don't go and buy them as soon as they are released. I wait for sales while I craft a few here and there. I've crafted about a dozen costumes that I wouldn't otherwise bought, so I think that aspect keeps me going in that department.
