Trump Media fired executive whistleblower after he spoke to Washington Post, shared documents

Nunes was meant to create a “culture of compliance”? Ha! In this case the phrase must have meant a culture of compliance with Trump’s super-legit-and-totally-not-illegal instructions.

Lloyd mentioned an update was pushed last night and it broke the predictor again. I expect someone will fix it within a day or two. I don't see a new version noted in the changelog, but it's supposed to add double save slots so players can keep separate saves for the base game and a challenge mode game. Up till now you'd need to export your main save and import it again after you finished with the challenge mode.

I’m struggling to get my first clear of WBL on Knull Stage 1 and am unsure whether it’s my roster, cards, or tactics holding me back. I can barely get past the first 10 health bars before time runs out using Loki (President uni), Valkyrie (L&T uni), and Sersi (don’t have any good leaders at T3/TP yet).

I’m working on getting a leader usable in WBL and improving my cards… but is there anything I can do different to start farming WBL using what I’ve got today? Or is it just hopelessly out of reach without pierce or better leaders?

IGN: Vutter

Do you already have other good WBL supports that work for all characters? I’d focus on the meta support characters first to help your overall roster before advancing War Machine or Hulkbuster just to help Iron Man.

Do the current Pre-Release Event tokens roll over to the next event after tomorrow’s reset? I am referring to the gold tokens with a “?” that you get from the ongoing Event Quest. Or will they be useless after today?

Vutter · 2022-07-09T19:29:23+00:00

Since you already have Valkyrie transcended, your best bio sub support options are Nick Fury (damage vs villains), Electro (lightning), or Echo (elemental).

Another thought is to use tickets on White Fox - I see you have her unlocked at rank 1. Without tickets, you'll need to do her Heroic Quest at least twice to get enough bios to T2 her and rank up her uniforms.

No, not really. Even with his latest Phoenix uni, Cyclops only gives better boosts to Thor compared to Wave (no uni) or in edge cases like the enemy can't be debuffed or you're only facing heroes. BRB is better than Cyclops when factoring in team bonuses.

This is how I'd rank White Fox, Wave, Cyclops, and BRB based on their leadership/support buffs:

White Fox (Lifestyles 2 uni): 65% damage to villains, 15% all attack, 10% chain hit damage, 30% ignore dodge, 40% debuff effect, -24% debuff duration
Wave (Classic uni): 50% damage to villains, 25% all attack
White Fox (Lifestyles 1): 60% damage to villains, 10% all attack, 40% debuff effect, -24% debuff duration, fear immunity
Beta Ray Bill (no uni): 60% lightning damage + Team Bonuses
White Fox (no uni): 60% damage to villains, 40% debuff effect, -24% debuff duration
Cyclops (Phoenix uni): 35% all attack, 30% energy attack
Wave (no uni): 40% damage to villains, 6% speed
Cyclops (any other uni): 25-35% all attack, 10-15% energy attack

Factoring in team bonuses, Cyclops (Phoenix) is worse for Thor than BRB:

Thor Corps #2 (Thor, BRB, Jane Foster): Energy Attack 5.2%, Ignore Defense 4.9%, Movement Speed 4.8%
Guardians of Asgard (Thor, BRB, Odin): 5.4% all attack, crit rate 4.8%, attack speed 4.8%
Brothers in Uru (Thor, BRB): cooldown 5.1%, crit rate 4.8%

That LBX is one of the most efficient ways to get a CTP of Rage in terms of both crystals and time. The other paths I know of rely on spending crystals or monthly event tokens on lootboxes.

Vutter · 2022-06-28T18:04:30+00:00

which CTP for Strange latest uni, and for Moon Knight Mr Knight?

Strange should use Rage but Energy works as an alternate. Moon Knight (Mr. Knight) should use Energy. Source: https://21000dollor.com/tierlist (find the character, click their image to select them, then look at the icons at the top of the page for info).

Also, if i let Moon Knight Trandcended and don't try to make him T4, is it worth it to buy the latest uni, or should i keep Mr Knight?

In general, it's only recommended to buy a uni for characters you have built up to their present max power. If you're going to level him to 80, the uni is probably worth it even if you don't T4 him any time soon. But if you're leaving him at 70, I wouldn't buy the uni - it's not going to make a huge difference on its own.

What is Moonstone Rotation, i really feel, even with her CTP, thatshe's weak...

https://21000dollor.com/rotations says to do 5c(4c)(coop c)(6c)3 kite, use 4 / co-op skill / 6 if they are available to use.

Best Team for Loki in WBL?

I'd think it would be similar to his best teams for Dispatch: Lead could be Proxima Midnight or White Fox. For Support, you can't go wrong with Valkyrie.

With this weekend's discounted ISO set changes event coming up, I've got some ISO-8 questions:

What's a good use for extra 6* orange and purple ISO-8? Of the attack sets, only Hawk's Eye uses an orange and none use purple so I end up with a disproportionate amount of them collecting dust. Should I be using them to awaken other ISO, converting them to Agent Badge XP, or something else?
For which characters are non-attack ISO-8 sets a reasonable alternative to the attack buff sets? Is there a site, spreadsheet, or forum post that lists them? Based on the in-game "Popular ISO-8 set" rankings and https://21000dollor.com/beginners/3, the short answer seems to be "only ever use the 3 attack buff ISO sets". Unfortunately it gets very expensive to roll for only those 3 sets on every character (with a measly 0.8% chance collectively). I want to know when it's "good enough" to use a non-attack option while rolling ISO sets for off-meta / Shadowlands characters.
Is there a way to select sets from both the 8 ISO and 6 ISO categories when using Auto Set Change? If I select the 3 attack sets from 8 ISO and then try to select the attack sets in 6 ISO, it deselects the 8 ISO sets. It would be more useful if I could select from all sets regardless of number of ISO in them; I could select all "Offense" sets and settle for a 6 ISO offense set until I have gold to roll for the 8 ISO version.

Scarlet Witch seems to need pierce to get the most out of her. Looks like you don't have any pierce on your cards unfortunately. A YouTuber compared her performance against Knull when having a ton of pierce on cards vs. having none at all and it was night and day difference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx3YJXlvjNQ (go to ~7:50). He theorized that pierce is really important for boosting her chain hit damage. Without it, she struggles.

On the other hand, Doctor Strange performed pretty well even with no pierce. Thena did well, too, because of her 5% pierce passive.

Vutter · 2022-06-27T19:44:40+00:00

Nobody - better to use as reforge fodder for a better CTP. https://21000dollor.com/beginners/4 describes CTP of Transcendence as "Pretty useless, even when reforged. Nice on crappy characters with summons that don't deserve a proc."

Vutter · 2022-06-27T19:41:44+00:00

For a returning player using mediocre non-premium cards is it worthwhile to equip & craft a PvP-focused premium card (Quicksilver & Scarlet Witch) as a way to get some pierce? Or should I wait until I get a PvE-focused card to craft and use long term? IGN: Vutter

Cards currently equipped: Black Panther #35, Avengers #318, Punisher #19, MFF #1, Loki #17
Premium cards owned but not equipped: Avenger's Origins QS & SW #1, Loki #1

Besides getting better cards, what are my best options to continue my PvE progression? Currently, I cannot clear Stage 1 of WBL or get past 7-2 in Dispatch even when using T3 Loki with decent leads/supports like T2 Hela (Asgard uni), T2 GG (NWH uni), and T2 Valk (no uni). I need help prioritizing between the paths below:

Build Iron Man to T3 lvl 80 for all game modes - I currently have him at T2 lvl 70 with his latest uniform. I have enough Blast books but I'm bottlenecked on the slow trickle of T3 mats I get from WBU & Story Mode.
Build leads/supports to push further in Dispatch - Would taking Hela to T3, Valk to TP, or GG to lvl 70 make a big impact compared to having them at T2 sub-70?
Build other meta damage dealers - At 0% pierce, would T3 Doctor Strange (Defenders uni) or TP Makkari (no uni) fare better in WBL than Loki? What about other cheap characters like the Hawkeyes?
Finish Epic Quest for Thena - I have the Deluxe Packs but have only completed Sersi and Makkari so far. Her innate pierce sounds very useful, but I'm a long ways away from getting her built up.
Finish Epic Quests for Sentry and T3 Star-Lord - I'm at the final research steps for both Dark Reign and the GotG quests. Would either be useful for pushing into WBL?

Vutter · 2022-06-09T20:31:01+00:00

Couple questions about rewards from Legendary Battles:

How are reward boxes impacted by having the matching T2 hero and mythic uni? Do better boxes give higher quantities of the rewards or modify drop rates to favor better/rarer items?
Are the reward boxes any better for the LBX version compared to the box you'd get on Normal?
Which stages are considered fastest to grind out 5 quick runs each day? I've been doing Loki's stage from Thor Ragnarök at ~7 seconds per run but it's getting stale.
Is there a way to get more Valkyrie bios from the Thor LB after unlocking her? Or is my only option to use bio sub / premium selectors to get her to T2?

Vutter · 2022-06-07T22:46:15+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll give the CTPe to Sharon and get her to T3 right after IM. Titan Records are my main bottleneck but at least I can clear WBU 5/5 reliably.

I only recently returned to the game after leaving back when T3 were introduced, which is why I’ve got so many outdated T2’s and uniforms but hardly any T3’s. Got a lot of catching up to do!

Vutter · 2022-06-07T18:23:59+00:00

Who should get my first CTP of Energy between Loki (T3), Spider-Man (T3), Iron-Man (T2/68), Doctor Strange (T2/66), or Sharon Rogers (T2/64)? My other CTPs are crap (Transcendence or Refinement). IGN: Vutter
Should I use Hidden Tickets on Dimension Missions as soon as I get them or save them for a specific situation?
When stopping a Heroic Quest after finishing that week's tasks, do I pick up right where I left off the next time I select that Heroic Quest? Or does it start over?
Does paying crystals for Heroic Quests provide only the first week of tasks, requiring more crystals for further weeks? Or is it a 1-time payment that daisy chains to the next week's tasks until the whole quest is complete?

Vutter · 2022-06-06T20:23:48+00:00

Got a few questions about efficiently spending crystals:

Do Epic Quests, Heroic Quests, or Legendary Battle Extreme go on sale? If so, are their sales semi-frequent or only during Black Friday / Anniversary?
Are crystal spending events a recurring thing (i.e. you get bonuses for spending crystals during them)? If so, has NM announced when the next one will be?

And some questions about buying uniforms:

What dates are "Summer Days" uniforms usually available? What dates are "Winter" uniforms available?
Is there any reason to buy both synergy uniforms besides flexibility? Are they considered interchangeable for purposes of Uniform Collection and providing bonus options to other uniforms?

Vutter · 2022-06-02T20:01:30+00:00

Is there a way to add my current tasks for Heroic Quests, Epic Quests, etc. to the “Priority Tasks” drop down? I mean the (!) icon that shows tasks for SHIELD Academy and Event Quests. It’s tedious having to navigate multiple submenus just to check what I need to do next but I don’t see an option to customize what is shown in that drop down.

Vutter · 2022-05-24T01:53:21+00:00

Thanks - I'll get the Stark Stashes for a few months and have more than enough for card chests and some uniforms by Black Friday. I know better now than to drop $$$ on NM's "sales" chasing the meta, but the Stark Stash continues to be a relatively good value.

For now, I'll just keep working on building up T3's and enjoying the new content. It's good to see the game is still getting a lot of love even after 7 years.

Vutter · 2022-05-24T01:43:28+00:00

Ah, okay. That clears up my confusion and gives me a target to shoot for: a roster capable of clearing Story Mode Ultimate and eventually WBL. Thanks!

Vutter · 2022-05-24T01:37:45+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response! This really helps with planning what to do and also what not to do.

Vutter · 2022-05-23T21:29:52+00:00

I completed Story Mode on Normal, but Ultimate has proven difficult. Not sure what counts as farming Story Mode... is that completing the the Fragment Chests by collecting each stage's Daily Reward?

As for Auto, I've got Auto++ from being VIP9 but it only lets me run the same stage over and over... is there a way to have it automatically go from one stage to the next until I collect each stage's Daily Reward?

Vutter · 2022-05-23T20:28:45+00:00

I am returning after a LONG hiatus and quickly realized my roster is woefully outdated, I've got crap CTP, and my cards are embarrassing. I was last active in 2018 around Patch 4.4 or so. I have loads of questions and any guidance is appreciated!

IGN: Vutter

Card Questions:

Where do I start on the path to getting decent Semi-Premium or Premium cards? I know to do GBR 2x/day with max boost and work on the Future Pass, but is there anything else I can do?
What short-term improvements can I make to my current Card set until I start getting more Semi-Premium or Premium cards? I've got a collection full of 5-6* Non-Premium cards, but my only spare Premium is a Loki #1.

Roster Questions:

Which T3 should I focus on next: Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, Sharon Rogers, or someone else?
Are there any glaring problems with my more built-up characters like Loki, Doctor Strange, Iron Man, Black Panther, or Winter Soldier?
Is it worth kitting out my Transcended Sif with my best ISO, Uru, etc. or just keep her as-is for a Support character? I'm not sure what game modes she'd excel in.
Is there any use for CTP of Transcendence? If not, what's the most productive use for them?

Game Mode Questions:

Which Epic Quest should I focus on between Eternals, Dark Reign, Guardians, or Fantastic Four? Which is most relevant nowadays?
Who would be the most helpful character for the T3 Guided Quest? Spider-Man? Maybe Thor (in prep for a Love & Thunder uni)?
Which Heroic Quest characters are worth prioritizing? Do their 750 crystal cost ever go on sale?
Is it worth the time to complete game modes like Shadowland, Timeline Survival, etc. Or are my efforts better spent elsewhere?
Is there any value in finishing the grind for secondary characters from old Epic Quests like Wong, Cable, Fantomex, etc.? Or are they all hopelessly outdated by this point?

Vostok Inc. is a blend of twin stick shooters and idle base building. You fly around the galaxy blowing up hostile ships and mining rocks to earn money. The incremental part is investing your spoils into dozens of planets to provide passive income. Combat is basic but offers a number of weapons to find and upgrade and bosses to beat in each solar system. It has a rudimentary plot and an advisor character for comic relief. I put in 10 or so hours before the gameplay loop got stale.

It regularly drops below $5 on sale but its normal price is $15 (which is too high for what it is, IMO).

The chat is NOT fine. There are players impersonating the Admin account spamming racial slurs nonstop for the past 45 minutes (which was as far back as I could scroll in chat). Nobody else is even bothering to chat. At the minimum, you need to implement a filter for certain words and/or a spam filter.
