My kid and his cousin have been crazy over this game for like two weeks now and oh my god Wolverine is like twenty bucks or some shit.
It sounds bad but keeping an eye on forums a couple times a day and keeping eyes open for the free code things has gotten me unlocks of about half the heroes in the game. The only thing I spend cash on was two inventory increases and the psylocke preorder cause well I needed psyloke hehe.

Patrol zones like midtown madness or xdefense are good for splinter hunting. Just constant non stop fighting and in x defense you are getting tags of everything from other players too so spinters spit out pretty fast and furious.
They seem like they come in so slow but I have done 4 random hero box unlocks with splinters so far combined with the random hero redeem keys stuff unlocks way faster than it looks like it will when you first start it.

I have been messing around with moonknight. He is a very interesting character as he gets stronger as you have lower and lower health and gets tankier as he gets lower health. I tend to get squished with him a bit more than other characters because it is so tempting to ride the danger zone for super damage and wind up face planting due to it. He also has a wacky power that basically sets you at 1 hp but invuln for a short time which allows for some stupidly high burst damage.
Only problem is that power seems to have a tiny window between it reducing you to 1 hp before your invuln kicks in and its really easy to randomly just die when turning it on if there are dots on the ground.
I'm glad you have decided to accept Khonshu as your personal lord and savior. Moon Knight is my favorite by far, gruesome frenzy has to be the best ability in the game and once you gear up his can clear mooks pretty well with his shitty aoe.

I've been playing for six or seven weeks. I spent 375 splinters and I'm sitting on over 600 with nothing really to spend them on. Once you get the few heroes you really want and a team up, there's not a whole lot to spend them on.

Scarlett Witch gets kinda hilarious once you get her lvl 30 "spin to win" power. Now I probably need to rebuild her, because a lot of stuff doesn't make sense once you get this puppy.

blasphemy! My first randomed heroes were Cage and Thing (I was hoping for Ms. Marvel or Loki). Both of them were tons more fun than I thought they would be. I have to agree though that there are some that are just way more fun than others.

Don't discount anyone. I am really enjoying Invisible Woman although I thought for sure she would be completely lame.
I mean sure, bubble attacks, but other than that - super fun!

Oh I have lots i want to try, but I'm generating splinters faster than I lose desire to focus on my existing heroes.

The redemption doesn't want to recognize that I have Marvel Heroes installed even though I got there through the app.

Nah. Few minutes after he posted. Didn't even see it on reddit yet.
There was an Italian site that had 500 keys this morning. Was all out in like 15 minutes. Didn't catch it in time.

Obviously I need to hit F5 on every site that might possibly have a hero give-away every few minutes. This makes the sixth or seventh I've missed, and it's getting kinda frustrating.

Yah, she's pretty fun to play (and strong right out of the gates), but holy shit is she a massive dork. Scarlet Witch is pretty bad too in that regard, but Invisible Woman just surpasses her corniness and rah-rah-rah bullshit by miles.

His aoe clear is kinda crappy but he sure can punch the ever living fuck out of single targets. Between his cestus punch and his signature barrage of whoopass he just rips bosses up. Still only like 37 with him but his bouncing baton move is getting potent enough to at least be useful amounts of minion moshing.

Yeah, i just switched my legendary from savage axe to M'kraan crystal and the dps drop while leveling it up is noticeable while AE clearing. Single target dps is more important than aoe clearing speed imo though.

I do that and still miss quite a few. This one lasted a bit after i posted it here though. I posted this ifttt recipe/link before, but it does make being notified of giveaways easier by just emailing you as soon as someone announces on reddit that there is a giveaway. I've received all promo codes and random box heroes (except the recent Italian one with like 500 keys) by having this email my phone. I haven't received any spam or anything so it works well enough. There's an app for it too, but the email just works so I haven't bothered with the app. https://ifttt.com/recipes/183168-if-new-giveaway-for-marvel-heroes-then-send-email

Squirrel Girl came as one of my free ones in a BOGO sale. She is stupidly fun to play. Also she practically invincible.

Fwiw, loving black panther/Shuri. Very different from the aoe-centric heroes I've tried before her, but enough aoe to kill trash while zipping from place to place.

Really crazy people. The last level tier of prestige is roughly equivalent to 25 times the amount of XP required to first hit 60. -edit- clarity.

I feel so plain though, I want a colored title and not one the same color as the guild tag. But I also want to level Iron Man.
