I know from long experience not to try and second guess my good lady's mind.  I'll buy her a hero she hates or the wrong types of stash, or something else that will be equally disappointing for unfathomable reasons.

Women, eh ?

I know this is a really crazy idea, but what about actually asking her?

You could even be super-subtle and when she gets HawkeyeThing in the next random box she opens, see what she was hoping for instead.

What're you, some kind of feminist ?

This is one of these 'scenario' things mate.  I've sorted it now.

[Threash]

Apparently those codes didn't have a one per account limit so people were going nuts with them.  It's what caused the downtime yesterday.

[Ironwood]

What ?

You mean if you'd signed up with a ton of Dummy E-mails, you could have gotten a whole raft of heroes, potentially ?

[Threash]

Yup, someone in guild got 16.

[Mattemeo]

I got a Hulk dupe. 

Your guildy is scum. 

[Lantyssa]

Well, that explains why I couldn't get zip.

[Nevermore]

I don't even try to get those keys anymore since I'm only missing 10 heroes now and I figure I'll give other people a chance.  But if those other people are assholes who grab 16 keys for themselves then fuck that, I'll just get get a dup next time.

[Ironwood]

Wife is in the huffs because she picked a random box and got a dupe Deadpool.  I tried to reassure her that she's almost 60 on him, so it's not a waste.

I played about with Jean and I'm a little annoyed by her.  I find her mechanics and phoenix stuff to be annoying and specced properly, she doesn't really have a 'main attack'.

In other news, my Nightcrawler got his Fart Bomb AoE, so that's actually quite fun.  Elena couldn't stop giggling. 

[Nevermore]

Don't forget to take the teleport that grabs a bunch of enemies and drops them in your fart bomb.

Good luck on this one. 100 codes available - http://www.videogamer.com/features/competition/win_a_marvel_heroes_2015_hero_pack_3.html

[Merusk]

Looooooooong gone.

Looks like everyone who logs in on Saturday gets a free Iron Man movie costume.

[Mattemeo]

That is extremely cool.

I've been meaning to get another IM costume for my mostly lasers-and-explosions build. I'm currently running around in the Classic Armor and it looks pretty doofy shooting all this stuff from basically nowhere - I want to make a melee IM secondary build for the Classic costume. I dislike the default costume intensely.

[Threash]

I just got the movie hulkbuster so i'll probably stash that one.

[Ironwood]

I got the old stealth costume from a card and that's the first thing I noticed.  All the missiles and explosions don't have an exit point.  It's a little jarring, even tho the costume is cool as hell.

[Mattemeo]

Achievements go live today, here's a pretty darn comprehensive list/guide.

[Lantyssa]

Hah.  There's a Princess Sparklefists achievement.

[Threash]

The most important ones are the "Target aquired: whoever" that reward a no trade version of their rare drops as they provide a guaranteed path towards endgame gearing.

[Fordel]

Prepare for spam on your first log in. That's a lot of achievements 

[Threash]

Leveling without any kind of server side exp bonus sucks now.  New code: ULTRON.

[Merusk]

Prepare for spam on your first log in. That's a lot of achievements 

inventory overflow, too.

[Furiously]

Their, we will be tracking things for achievements, is complete bs.

[Threash]

Yeah, having the "loot 2002 eternity splinters" cheevo sitting at 12 when there are 3500 in my inventory is kinda dumb.

[eldaec]

Needs cosmic kills though, so I guess debatable whether you shiuld start on them before you can down a cosmic boss in a couple of rotations.

[Ironwood]

It was a welcome wee burst of stuff.  In particular, I needed the money...

[Mattemeo]

The Achievement spam... it was still going 5 minutes after I logged in...

That said, I am somewhat disappointed that a lot of these 'chieves haven't been tracked, and as Threash pointed out, some of them are even sillier when you demonstrably own enough items to be eligible. Hopefully those kinks will get ironed out, though. I'm just glad the system's in after all this time.

Had a quick playabout with Wanda 2.0 (52.0?). I'd only got her to 11 previously, she was kind of lacklustre and floaty so she got shelved. She isn't lacklustre or floaty anymore. Jeebus, the crazy that comes out of that lady...

[Merusk]

Huh, I'll give her a try after Vision then, I suppose.

It was a welcome wee burst of stuff.  In particular, I needed the money...

Agreed. I'd blown my 3 million doing unique upgrades to 60 for low-level uniquest with good rolls and rerolls of some rare uniquest (like tippytoe's bow) for some of my heroes.  The cash goes fast but comes back slow when you're destroying anything not unique. Turned auto-destroy off last weekend just to get cash faster.

Which means I'll never bother with them.  I've already wiped the idea of doing Doom achieves and the item-level achieves out of my head, too.  180 seconds? 690 gear? These guys release heroes faster than I can get them to 60; I'm never getting those.  I've yet to step in the raids and probably never will. Cosmic terminals are a challenge to not die in more than 3 times.  Oh well.

[dd0029]

Some of the achievements are really annoying. I'm never going to get the "loot all the uniques" or "artifacts" ones. I have terrible luck and I just flat out hate running some terminals, notably Doom. It's just way too long and there's nothing interesting about it.

I was thinking I'd have Hulk and Cyclops nearly done, but both of them have achievements to have specific team ups and have them out and killing things. Something I don't do. I also just missed the have all the uniques for Cyclops because I got a fourth punchclops last weekend and crushed them into relics. Gah.

[Threash]

That loot all the unique achieve pisses me right the fuck off because i fed the one and only frogmans suit i ever saw drop to my pet like a week ago.

[Ironwood]

I'm not going to get bent out of shape about it, since they had to start somewhere, but I too cleared two stash tabs full of uniques the other day.  Bad Timing.  Bad, bad timing.

Oh Well.

[Threash]

If you go to icp on the east side right in front of the ship and on top of the crates next to it are two walter white spawns on like a 15s respawn timer, the achievement to kill him 52 times gives a mysterious blue omega box (thats the one with the boss drop unique with challenge bonus.  It's like ten minutes of work so totally worth it, bring a teleporter so you can pop from one spawn to the other, otherwise you have to run around and climb the crates.

[Merusk]

Yeah I saw a Hulk farming AIM parts there for faction by AFKing with the slam button held down.  Good call.

[Threash]

It doesn't change stats when you upgrade to 66/69.

[Threash]

So i popped open like 80 of the coffers and about half the stuff disappeared before i could pick it up, sigh.  Go slow and clear your inventory beforehand :P.

[Fordel]

I've done all the Ms. Marvel ones but this one that wants me to kill like 2000 Mercs in Cosmic Taskmaster using melee powers. Ran through that terminal and got like... 20 Mercs spawned total.

Is there a different Dr. Doom 180 sec one other then the hero specific ones? 180 seconds on super heroic was not a great trial by any means.
