Beast, Doc Ock, She Hulk, Mororo - All recent releases that are much much worse than Mystique. Hell Mystique has a 19 AP move(set) that does 7k damage, that's pretty good.

Comparing Mystique's purple to Aggresive Recon (one of the best active skill in game) is a little unfair. Not at all unfair, in fact, I would say she was meant to be the 3* equivalent of oBW by design and should be directly compared. And my point was not about her at 13 covers but in the context of how bad it can be to have an under-covered 3*. With her at 4/1/0 she is 25% of my 3* winnings for the month and is absolutely useless. Her at 13 covers and fully leveled? Different story entirely but ONLY because of her black which is what I pointed out.

noone_ wrote: BTW, I'd like to add in my last suggestion which I posted in another thread but didn't report here which is to add "auras" to characters - effects which are always on. For instance, Falcon could say, "add 25% to Captain America's match damage" or Spider-Man could say, "+3 Blue AP when facing Doctor Octopus." This would: - Add instant play-ability to any 3* since it comes baked in without the need for a specific color cover - Create fun dynamics in making teams - Create more opponent interaction in choosing certain characters to play against your opponents - Make a broader base of characters more viable - Create a real meta-game as opposed to the current "Hood/Sentry/X-Force cause they do the most damage the quickest" in PVP - Add viability to support characters which currently pretty much suck like Spider-Man since the True Healing change

I'm pretty sure that in the chase for 3*s you should want to use them as soon as possible, that's what makes it fun to get new characters in the first place. I would say that comparing a 3* that has enough covers to be leveled to 94 should not underperform but should in all cases OUTPERFORM a 2* 94 considering they cost a premium versus 2*s. One of my points is that they almost always underperform which is a bad omen for the game's longevity and speaks volumes of how poorly designed most characters are. So yeah, can't agree with you at all when looking at the average player.
