What exactly does that entail? Apologies, I'm not really familiar what that means.
It entails you getting the guardians of the galaxy pack for 22$ if you want it. lol XD. If there's an interest in it, i can stock up on it, and you guys can buy it
.I'd buy it.
do any raids happen on european friendly times?
got a few characters fully geared (apart from blessings), and a couple with actual proper specs too (lol), Reed and Surfer (Ironman, Colossus, Spidey are also fully geared but they have my trademark weird specs). I would probably use Reed, im just a nick away from lvl 4 on the legendary too

Ohh okay haha. I already have the stuff in it, but I'm sure there's some who'd be interested.
thx for the detailed breakdown! I can never remember these things well
for euros it would probably only be weekends. I know Phol and Noray have done it with us then
weekdays we only raid at primetime north american, after work for most of us
no way
are you guys raiding today? im off work so can stay up later at least
also has this been discussed?
"I had to cover a few things that aren't announced, but we just got this email from our Art Director...
...to DL.SID.Costumes
All the below have been Marvel Approved....
Angel Team-Up
Hulk [...]
[...]_Noir
Wolverine [...]
Spider-Man [...]
Psylocke Lady Mandarin
Thor_Female"
so Angel Team-up confirmed, we already saw Betsy mandarin before, Thor female is probably the new thor, not earth X which we already saw (so 2 thor female costumes?). any clue about the others? Spidey is probably 2099, since there is a new 2099 book
Just added it for 22$ to my list found here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=128645303&postcount=18803 . Feel free to PM me if you want it.
liezryou is COMPLETELY trustworthy btw, good people

lol I actually tried Sue again for a couple days last week, and I like her combat flow a lot
she's a lot more fun than I remember when first leveling her to 60 at launch
just had my first raid experience!
as in, I was kicked from a group presumably because I dont have blessings (since I have a lvl 4 legendary on reed and full enchanted 60 uniques so I dont see what else it could be)
ah raids, how you make every game better

What character were you playing on? I find people are more prejudiced against some of the less strong characters than others. Folks are a lot more forgiving on an undergeared Wolverine or Silver Surfer (pre-nerf) or Doctor Strange than they are of Psylocke or the Invisible Woman.
I find the requirement to have a fully ranked legendary, all uniques with runes, and full blessings to be ridiculous. Sadly, that's the consensus in the game now and most everyone you meet in a PUG setting adheres to it.
The weird part is that in my six or so times completing the raid, the two smoothest runs have featured "undergeared" players who knew how to play their class. Green raids aren't very difficult. Yes, you have to be able to pump out consistently high damage to clear everything. But honestly, 5-6 very well geared characters can easily carry the rest.
The only real answer to you is to either raid with our guild, or purchase those blessings. Grind for Odin marks and "gear up" so people don't look for an excuse to toss you. The game has no damage meter, so there's no way to prove one way or another how much you are contributing in a raid. It all comes down to a judgment without facts to back it up for most raid leaders.
I have three raid geared characters. I probably pump out the most damage on Wolverine, but I don't really care for his play style in raids that much. I prefer playing as Star-Lord and put out pretty comparable damage. My Rocket summoner build lags behind both those guys in damage, but I find him a lot more fun than Wolverine. I know if I show up to a PUG raid on Rocket without full blessings, I'm probably going to get kicked. That would never be the case on Wolverine or Star-Lord, who are considered top five or so in damage.
One final point: screw the raid mentality people. Play who you like. We cleared it the other night with a Punisher and Jean Grey, two characters who by consensus are considered quite weak right now. The players knew what they were doing and we all had fun.
that's why you raid with us GAF buddiez!
don't lie, your RR is not raid-geared !!
you just hit 60 one day ago, I've been watching you closely!
Reed I said (Mr Fantastic).
I just took a look at what the blessing are. 2 questions:
can you put any on any artifact, and can you repeat them? because if so, I assume everyone just puts 4 X Odin for 20% extra dmg to bosses
which is GOD AWFUL game design to even have that in there. Good lord
for a lot of heroes i was playing hela seemed pretty popular going by guides

True, I am lacking two blessings. I had a level four legendary, but I swapped some things around so I'm back to a fresh start on it. But I am approaching 350% summon damage, and that's basically one of three beneficial stats to summons. It's very straight-forward gearing for that build.
Also, weren't you called out for not having any enchants on your gear the other night? People make a big deal out of silly stuff.
Most people use Hela for the +5% brutal rating, unless they are summoners in which case they go with Frigga. And yes, you can use four of the same kind on each of your artifacts. If your critical rating is high enough, then 20% more to brutal rating is a pretty big deal in terms of damage output.
So long as you use a commonly used one like Hela, you aren't really locking yourself into anything. If you get an upgraded artifact, you can just move the blessing over. That includes moving it over to other characters.
If you were using Reed, he's consensus top 5 damage in the game right now. Not sure what the deal was there. He is a bit squishy, but that isn't something that blessings will help you with. You just have to avoid easily telegraphed boss damage abilities.

There are almost no builds that use Odin blessings... Hela and Fandral are the two most popular.
90% to 95% of characters use Hela, so don't waste any marks on Odin
im not wasting any marks on any until I havent legendaries on at least the heroes i like, so...yeah, not anytime soon

That new mechanic does sound pretty cool but in a way I hope that I can still use it in a way similar to now because doing rotations between psi constructs and assassin skills allow a basicless build. I honestly think she has good enough survivability as is, since she really doesn't get one shotted in raids unless it is surtur's ohko or another mechanic. For cosmic terminals I think the people who think she dies fast don't know how to use her decoy or stealth properly because it is a really huge part of her gameplan and makes her survive by not getting hit in the first place. In general I think characters who can stealth or drop aggro could skimp out on direct toughness to run things like cosmic terminal. Heck, a character like Rocket Raccoon can do all the endgame stuff without taking a hit because of it and the aggro for his pets.

Yep, I'm holding off on playing characters like Psylocke and Ghost Rider until those changes pop in. Same reason I still haven't touched Cyclops, Cable, or Deadpool. I want to save the leveling experience for later.
i blew like 1200 splinters on upgrades just now lol.
i'm only missing 3 heroes that i have no desire to play anyways.
I will do it. 20% increased damage on Moon Knights sig would be more than enough motivation.
We're getting non-tradable versions of doop runes every day next week. Can actually make more than a couple cosmic insignias.
Edit: In the right mood I might try the raid again, I want the eyes. Only reason is hardware cursor coming soon.

I'm very interested in this as well. I'd love to give the Elemental Tree a closer look, but for now it doesn't provide any value added to my build.
Cosmic insignias?
Apparently there's a limit to how many they can add or something
Might be because it's F2P.
Oooh I see. Is the recipe hard to come by?

o, i just bought power cosmic :x

Banned
that's pretty much every week though
midtown madness seemed fine? as was the previous cosmic.
back at launch literally every patch had something go wrong iirc
the best one was the one where they buffed player damage but accidentally removed defense values
actually it might have been the one where they did bonus XP weekend to make up for a broken patch and the bonus XP broke giving everyone nerfed XP

They said it had to be from hero powers. And since they even nerfed rogue's use of it (she can only make use of two damage types like any other hybrid, if she uses a third, it loses one of the effects), I don't think artifacts will work.

Emma Frost melee + Idol of Khonshu + Inspire Minion = 900damage rating all the time pretty much. Also I really like her diamond damage and survival. Haste A.I.M. Incinerator is good times, now I wish he had slow aura instead of extra damage. Finding them are too much of a pain to release this one. Now to get this Power Cosmic for constant damage buff and attributes. I was just getting into Psylocke too.
Hail to the ice queen, bring on dual spec!

I wish I didn't get this thing yet. You need so much for the recipe though. A lot of money, doop rune, and some other doop thing that you buy with world stones on top of it. It's darn expensive. This was the first thing I bought with the worldstones, you did good if you ask me. Farm doop runes as you work on your power cosmic legendary.

Idol of Khonshu is pretty awesome for characters like Psylocke and MoonKnight. Ranged dots also proc the effect each it all the time. I sort of wish Captain America had one besides using shield bounce, to combo with his hits, since the bounce only works with multiple enemies around.
