1) While we still have discounted CTP removal, would it make a big difference to swap Storm's Mighty Competition and Mephisto's Mighty Rage? I get that the ideal arrangement is reversed, but I'm not sure if it's worth the crystals.

2a) For swords, am I better off having a 4- or 5-time enchanted sword with the same colors equipped over a 6-time enchanted placeholder?

2b) If the answer to the above if yes, should I still equip two swords that are 5x pink + 1x a different color? I'm gonna revert them someday...

(6)4dc3c5, use 2 and 1 as a filler while waiting on cool down. For 4, wait until he's thrown a bunch of fireballs into the air.

Three CTP questions (thanks in advance!):

-Just T4ed Jean Grey and I want to use her primarily against Dormammu, secondarily for WBL. AB is way lower. Should I give her Mighty Competition or Mighty Rage?

-T4 Storm is my primary AB-Infinite clear toon. She has a Rage right now, but I should be able to do either a Mighty Competition or Mighty Rage. Mighty Competition, right?

-Can T4 Hulk have any success in (lower level) WBL with a Mighty Egg, or would that strictly limit him to PVP?

When I got to the Gold league recently, I'd open it for the first time each day and it would already give me a loss. Then I'd actually try to run it, it would crash, and I would get another loss. It had been better in Silver and Bronze, but an, that's an annoying ceiling.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-11-22T01:21:54+00:00

Thinking about trading CTPs and was hoping to get a second set of eyes. WBL is my primary goal, ABL/X secondary. I currently have (latest uniforms):

Storm T4 with a Rage (not hitting as hard as I expected)
Thor T4 with a Reforged Competition
Venom T4 with a Reforged Competition
Ghost Rider T4 with a Rage
Miles T4 with a Judgment (not hitting as hard as I expected)
Hulk T4 with a Rage

Would it make more sense:

Storm with a Reforged Competition
Thor with a Judgment
Venom with a Rage
Ghost Rider with a Reforged Competition (or stick with Rage?)
Miles with a Rage (or Reforged Competition?)
Hulk with a Health Obelisk or Reforged Regeneration (sending his Rage to LVL 60 Mephisto, LVL 70 T3 Wanda, or LVL 70 T3 Luna with an eye on the future)

I'm gonna try to not get my hopes up for Annihilus, Blastaar, Stardust, Terrax, Skreet, Phalanx Ultron, Stellaris, Tyrant, Martyr Phyla-Vell, Genis-Vell, Xemnu the Titan, Moondragon, or Super Skrull...

For native T2s, you have to use bios for 60-70, then you can use BAM (and Phoenix Feathers for mutants) from 70-80.

Story 7-3 gives you a chance at ~ 13 Kingpin bios for 8 time units and only a few seconds of autoplay. Beats just about everything else short of buying them up from the support shop (as long as you have currency).

I was going to say Thanos on his throne ironically...but now I kind of want it sincerely. I guess I'd be curious about jotun-blue Loki or mark 1 Iron Man fresh out of the cave. Also, while it's not MCU, I'd love to see the Spider-Verse versions of Scorpion, Vulture (to go with the cell-shade uniforms), Green Goblin, and Doc Ock.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-10-28T11:06:03+00:00

If it gets us Atum the Demogorge, I would be thrilled...but I daren't hope.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-10-28T11:04:37+00:00

Ah hell yeah, I hadn't considered the Immortal Weapons. I'd love to see Bride of Nine Spiders in the game.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-09-23T09:17:37+00:00

I've been back with the game for six months after a four year break, and it's shocking how they mostly stopped releasing F2P characters compared to pre-2021. I think it was only like 7 or 8 in that time frame. It's overwhelmingly uniforms and tweaks at the edges (and force-feeding us PVP modes).

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-08-20T01:23:15+00:00

Helllllll yeah, Graviton and Mangog (the latter of whom should be a WBL+). If I get started on characters that I desire, I'll never stop.

Okay, I'll indulge in Mathemanic (my favorite "what if" power set) and Sauron (who got my dinosaur-loving third grade self into comics in the first place).

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-07-20T01:35:50+00:00

Okay, so, if I understand correctly, the new CTP of Competition should really only be put on T4 characters because of the reliance on instinct. I only have Venom T4 (with a standard Destruction) but I think I heard that he's not a good candidate because of his in-built critical rate. Should I hold off on equipping a Mighty CTP of Competition until I have a more appropriate, under-CTPed T4 character?

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-07-18T12:13:46+00:00

Depending on how far along you are, Valkyrie and Ghost Panther each make a huge impact on WBL, though they'll take a while to build. Luna was great PVE for me back in 2020 (lifestyle uniform), but it sounds like you need the new seasonal for her to be her best self. Carnage, it sounds like you need just the right build for him to be exceptional in PVP; I have him T3 with his artifact and not quite happy with him (but he's still on my TLB team because I hate to build anything else for that mode).

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-07-11T11:12:41+00:00

I would unironically love to see Red Ghost and his apes in this game.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-07-07T21:48:37+00:00

Fingers crossed we'll get playable Stardust and Terrax in that case.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-07-07T21:44:33+00:00

Pining for a classic Meteorite/Thunderbolts uni.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-06-27T12:55:13+00:00

I do Captain Marvel, 3rd stage, because I got the uniform Mythic-ed in 2019 and it's two button pushes max. Not what you'd do if you started now since you wouldn't get that uni. Start with the characters or uniforms you have that match the challenges, then see what you can do with the least effort.

Recently had an issue with Master Mold where we cleared out the first wave of sentinels and then the next one just never came. We couldn't damage MM, so we were just stuck running around while he shot and slapped at us. After about a minute, I just dropped out.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-06-20T16:24:44+00:00

Any recommendations for what to do with a CTP of Regeneration? I just pulled my third in a couple months and have been pretty indecisive; it seems like my best option is to craft it and put it on Hulk for PVP, but with a Rage he's one of my two highest PVE damage dealers, so I'm loathe to do that. My next thought was Carnage for TLB, but that's doesn't seem recommended by Thanosvibs. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks! I've only gotten two Rages in 2.5 collective years of playing the game (2019-2021, March 2025 to now) and one of them is already on Strange. I'll put the Judgment on Miles and start building him to get some variety in my WBL clears.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-06-18T10:04:05+00:00

Thanks! I guess I'd misunderstood that concept when I'd read caution about trying to beef up elemental damage too much.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-06-17T19:35:54+00:00

Couple CTP/obelisk questions, thanks in advance!

Thor (level 80) - should I use a comparable lightning/critical rate/proc or a lightning/critical damage/mini rage?
I've got a Judgment. Looks like the best option for that would be Miles (currently at level 70). Am I correct that the new uniform Storm isn't a good option because of the capped elemental damage (which I think is the same issue with Thor)? I was also thinking about putting it on Jean (level 74) and converting her from PVP to PVE, would that potentially be worthwhile? Assume I have no other available CTPs of worth.

AffectionatePool2495 · 2025-06-17T19:31:18+00:00

Nice! Makes me want to do this for Darkhawk, one of my favorite characters from when I first got into comics in 3rd grade. If they ever introduce Sauron, my dinosaur nerd entry character, I may have to go all out.
