May I inquire a source?
I think David Brevik said it, I believe he's the Gaz dev or designer who had a blood feud with the Diablo 3 devs

I know David Brevik said it, that's what the post I quoted said. I'd just like to know WHERE he said it.
He's the CEO of Gazillion, and I've already explained to you that he doesn't have a "blood feud" with them.
Ah okay gotcha, I don't remember stuff well. I don't have a link handy on his Namor comment though

Sometimes I don't know whether you're trolling or not lol. And yeah, I didn't find anything on the forums, so I assume he mentioned it on his own stream, or some other one.
I'd really like the info though because Namor's game rights have been a cause for debate and speculation for years now, so something straight outta the horse's mouth is going to be helpful.
Having a tree dedicated to bringing out giant sea monsters and Atlantean soldiers would be radical.
These aren't up to date and they're missing some important information:
The very first encounter is technically the pointless "trash clear" where you have to kill 12 sentries. There's no time limit/death limit, it's just a tedious romp through some lava with a shit ton of trash. Very annoying, easier to navigate with a teleport.
1st Boss Encounter: Hellfire has the Cave Collapse, not Brimstone. It does massive damage and stuns. Advice still applies though, when she waves her hands in the air, move somewhere nobody was standing and you'll avoid it. Brimstone has the Slam attack which can be outranged by ranged. Melee's can run out to avoid it but it's much less damaging than Hellfire's cave collapse that I tend to just tank it and CC break after he uses it to continue DPS'ing.
The red arrow (Get away) also causes a DoT to surrounding allies, so extra important to get out of there ASAP.
Not mentioned: If the Enrage timer is hit, the green meteor (where you stack) will start dealing 2+ million damage so simply run away when it's on you so that only you die and not your entire team. This fight can technically be done indefinitely if every player has access to a Ziggeraut and a invul proc shield (you zig to take damage, and shield the meteor damage).
Also not mentioned: Pets are considered people for the green stacking. Rocket Raccoon has absolutely no issues solo-tanking a boss while the other 9 players focus on the other. This allows a much easier time stacking on a team for the meteor call, just in case a member or two dies on accident. ALSO: And this is general advice too, but call your teamups regardless. They'll help mitigate meteors and at worst, provide low-ish damage to whatever your fighting.
Final not mention: The grates on the floor shoot fire periodically. Don't stand on a grate. Don't fight the bosses on grates as the fire will screw you over.
2nd Boss Encounter: Fire Giants spawn every 25% (so 75%, 50%, and 25%) and can 1-shot kill most everyone which is why they have to die ASAP. How you handle archer rotation depends greatly on your team comp and mobility. I've seen a few Nightcrawler players handle 4 spots by themselves no problem. Ranged DPS seems vastly superior to melee this fight unless they run zig/invul core to tank butt slams and continue to DPS (or can "face tank" the hit like a few Colossus/Thing players).
3rd Boss Encounter: Only blue and gold archers can target Volstagg/Fandral. Only 1 blue/yellow archer can be up at a time. Having enemy radar is incredibly useful here because you can easily see where the archer is (they don't move, the other melee mobs will be running around). Everyone should be focusing down the blue/yellow archers. If you have a "top burst DPS" hero in your group (Wolverine, MK, etc), they're assigned to yellow orb pickup.... otherwise, anyone who grabs it goes. There's no buff icon for the yellow orb but you also have infinite spirit which is another way of knowing if you picked it up/when it runs out.
Not mentioned: Pulling fire giants through the yellow fire puts a red hula-hoop-esque icon around them and they start losing health gradually. If you get to monolith, just blow them up yourself or get them low enough to blow while you make your escape.
It takes the two dudes 9 minutes to 'activate' the obelisks giving you a solid minute to blow up Monolith, after that, it'll Enrage and start 1-shotting players. Save your teamups for this moment as they'll eat hits too, pop invul shields if you got them, etc. Stagger any empower buffs on ultimates you might have as well.
4th Boss Encounter: The Sister's HP is now linked, so there's no killing 1 faster than the others. Fire Giant's must be killed in all rooms or else your damage will be reduced. There's *a lot* of moving in this fight, so guys who can drop big DoT's and run around or have a hefty dose of invul procs are preferred.

ya Namor would be awesome in this game!
He's not really an asshole, he's just misunderstood sometimes.
Nah, he's the world's biggest asshole. It's what makes him so much fun.

Got my Deadpool to red 60 last night. Fairly long road, but I imagine nothing like cosmic would be haha..
Still, feels good. Geared up last night, put some blessings on my artifacts and have level 60 Dragonfang and other gear, so about as ready as I can be for end game stuff with him.
4 Groot pieces. Doubt I'll make the 15 this week which is a shame.

Oh I did solo lol. I didn't want to ruin someone else's time since it was my first time in there.

I've only ever tried Holo-Sim solo once, and definitely didn't have a character geared for it.
I've seen some videos of high-geared characters solo'ing it, but it's not something you're ever going to do right out of the gates.

I'm far from good at the game, and rarely have optimal builds of any kind, but always play holo sim solo- I only ever get 5 or 6 waves in each time. 7 at most if I'm having a good day or I'm playing a character I haven't ruined the build for yet. If you're just looking to take care of requirements for dailies, it's fine, but if you're looking for finishing it up, you're going to need a partner for sure, or you're going to need to optimize the shit out of your build.

Hype begins!
She's going to be a LOT of fun, and probably going to take a long time to master an optimum build.
I always solo holo sim. But I just need to do it for the 10 waves for the daily, so it's no problem. I like to solo it so I can take my time between waves collecting and selling loot without worrying that the other guy is gonna open the chest and start the timer before I'm ready.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Ghost Rider buffs/changes coming soon. That's good, I don't have him yet but I'm planning to get him as my next splinter purchase (currently closing in on 500) and hear his current state is pretty meh.

I understand DP's review is coming up, but I wish they'd just drop a couple of buffs in the short term to keep him competitive.
Going to try out a raid with my SG this weekend, but I'm already feeling I'm going to be the weak point lol!
I have him. This is an accurate statement.

Naww
I'm really going to have to try him out again. I did think he was cool back at the start!
Have they ever changed that power since GR launch? Cause that was seriously the worse signature power in the whole game.
I don't believe so. If so they failed cause it's still terrible.
A group as in supergroup or a party? For supergroups you need to be invited. For multiplayer content, there's usually match-making, and in story mode you might randomly fall into a party by entering instances, but you can also check out the LFG channel, although people mostly just request parties for lvl 60 content there.
And whether you solo or not, it's up to you. You can solo as much as you want. Some people play exclusively solo. But parties are good for clearing out shared/legendary quests faster.
