Gazillion's Marvel MMO - F2P, Play as existing Marvel characters only

It didn't bone you exactly since green goblin doesn't drop anything you need to continue the quest, but yeah someone came by first and killed everything because of the stupid autogroup thing.  The real problem is when someone does it and grabs the quest item and then you get stuck with no possible way to continue besides logging out for 15 mins.

Anyone played any amount of Scarlet Witch? Curious what skills other people use with her.

[ezrast]

I've played her enough that I didn't need to look up any of her ability names while writing this post.

Basically on SW you hit Combusting Hex, Hex Binding, Ravenous Binding, Chaos Warp, repeat ad nauseum. Or until you need to stop to spam Mystic Hex. One point into Ruinous Flux. I usually keep up the aura that clears ground effects but I really don't know how the two stack up against each other. Max Chaos Magic. The immobilize from your bindings is already triggering Tenacity so the pure CC abilities are mostly useless. Bewildering Hex used to ignore Tenacity but it doesn't anymore so if you read something telling you to spam that on bosses, it's outdated.

Chaos Warp is a boring-ass ability though. The most fun I've had with her was when I didn't level it at all and just focused on keeping up DoTs and spamming Chaotic Hex.

SW is my  highest level character, at only 36.

She is basically red death.

You just use a slew of AOEs. AOE pulsing damage, AOE increased damage to foes, pull enemies from the entire screen there, charm them, and then float into the air and pulse insane damage to everything on the screen. Maybe you use an AOE stun before floating or before charming. It depends on where your face hits the keyboard.

Then you teleport a few screens over and do it all over again.

Sometimes you have to left click things to regain mana.

Most of the time you are pushing/pulling enemies across the entire screen and melting them.

Oh, and you do all of this while you have passive area damage things going that do actually reasonable damage themselves.

I bought Scarlet Witch and my free BOGO character was... a second Scarlet Witch.

[Threash]

That is some shitty luck, at least the extra token makes her ult better.

[Fordel]

Stay away from Vegas. 

[Furiously]

I randomed a couple days ago and got Luke Cage, then I did a BOGO with Black Widow cause she's cheap and I hoped to get something good and got a free Luke Cage token. Latest Random was Luke Cage. I figured the game was telling me something so I tried playing Luke Cage, And I'm not sold on his buildups and finishing moves, but his voice acting is probably the best in the game.

I like Lazy Caging and letting his summons do everything for me.  Heroes for Hire!

[Threash]

Anniversary stuff starts tomorrow, login for gifts.  I believe you need to have a lvl 30 char to qualify.

If you are not beating people with your belt buckle and throwing cars you are sooooo doing it wrong.

Legendary quests are by far the quickest way, specially if you pay to skip the longer ones.

[ezrast]

LOTS of gifts. Like, uniques out the ass.

Raids come out tomorrow as well. I might just go full poopsock.

Fuck it, I'm making a Bat Country just because. I'm ezrast in-game and on Steam. Poke me if you want an invite.

Group quests (basically legendaries, but for groups) are coming out as well so there will be group stuff for non-capped players. Still nothing great to do with people outside your level range though. 

[Trippy]

Raids are going to be wonderful playground for griefers

HEHE doh that said I believe getting a dup hero just upgrades their ult power which is not a bad thing especially for a good character like SW.

There's a rumor that silver surfer is getting released tomorrow for the anniversary.

I had not a fucking clue what those were so I researched them once my Dr. Doom quest crashed and he never entered phase two.   holy crap thanks.  Took all of 30 mins to get 3 levels where I'd been struggling over an hour and a half to get the first done.

[Zetleft]

Didn't see this special mentioned for an Odin boost.  Worked as of a day ago.

BEWORTHY

You also get odin marks used to buy legendaries.  The easiest ones are the ones that involve terminals or an easily accessible boss in the story, second are the midtown quests, last are the open world ones.

Random hero box (says it's a beta, but if you apply it gives you a random)

:) thanks!

[Threash]

Holy crap that was a ton of gifts.

[Numtini]

For those of us looking to spend more money, all the "chase costumes" are apparently available for sale.

When they say 365 items, they mean it !

My poor, poor wallet.

On a different note, if anyone wants to team up to do some cosmics or just level up another alt, let me know.  In game name is Ginaz.

[Numtini]

That really is the way to do anniversary gifts. Did everyone get Old Lace? I love the Runaways and wanted the pet, but geez, not if EVERYONE has it.

[ezrast]

Everybody does the first raid encounter WRONG and tells me I don't know what I'm talking about when I tell them how to do it the easy way. I suspect the easy way is going to get patched out before long anyway but for now it sure is frustrating.

[Numtini]

Another random hero. http://giveaways.tentonhammer.com/giveaway/23

That did not last 5 minutes?

It was posted on the forums and yes it looks like it reached the limit:

I missed 2/3 of the free hero chances but the one I did make I got Emma Frost. Who seems like an absolute mess. She has 3 quite distinct trees, one of which seems half broken and the other two that do *not* play nice with eachother. Also pets, I hate pets in ARPG so much.

So now I have both her and Hawkeye that seem not enough fun to bother with.

I'm on the fence about Daredevil I got him to 20-something but he seemed very underpowered, I should go back to him sometime.

So the Scarlet Witch playing continues, I'm a couple of that one currency away from being able to afford a hero lottery pick. I looked at what people posted here and the forums and I can't believe that many people insist on using the most boring skill for her as a build mainstay. Also she has basically only one build.
