Roster Advice, Have I taken the right path ?

I'm on day 119, looking forward to that next hood cover.

Can you please give some advice on my roster ? I'm not sure if I should start leveling past 94 ? I've mainly tried to level up the characters I use the most and that have 10 or more covers.

Link is in my signature, thanks kindly for the input, just want to be as efficient as possible. Please note, I am not in a top 100 alliance or anything close to it.

  • I'd say you have enough characters that can go well beyond 94 that you can safely do so now.

    I'd also add that you can start selling off 2*'s to make room in your roster at this point too, if you find yourself needing the space. (Just keeping one good team of 2*s for DDQ and the easy nodes in PVE)

    while everyone has different strategies, mine was to get a top-tier pair up as high and as quick as possible. for me that was lthor and loki. as soon as I got thor to ~130s, I could immediately start finishing t100 in pvps and thus another *** cover every 3 days in addition to the ddq and pve stuff. now 'the brothers' are 166/140 and are great together. if you go that route, try and get a team that you like and go for it. Cyclops and thor are great and you have deadpool covered but none are 'support' characters - board shakers, ap controllers, healers. kk is very good from what I hear (mine is still pretty low-level) as a green battery and healer. she would rock with lthor, especially with more green covers on thor, which will come with time. theres no overlap in colors with Cyclops/kk but there's no synergy there (working together) Cyclops feeds his own red with yellow and kk feeds her green with purple, but that could be made to work I think. you have done very well to get as many covers as you have - my guess is that you're in a good alliance (and you've obviously sprung for roster slots, maybe more). we have about the same covers but I have more levels total than you but I'm on day ~150.
  • Yes, that is correct. I've dropped about 20 USD into it and have used it all for the sake of roster spots. The addition of Deadpool dailies has been huge.

    My biggest concern is (and hotly debated from reading the forums) the level of PVE scaling.I dont know how high I should level my characters, right now I've stopped at 94 so I can have 3-4 teams to rotate through using to make sure to hit ever refresh on nodes. I enjoy pvp, have just gotten my first 10 pack from a season. I've finished 1st once and top 5 a couple times but assume they were noob brackets haha.

    My alliance is not great, I dont think we've ever ranked under 600 in an event. But they are good people and some RL friends.

    And referencing the team aspect and lacking good support characters, that's my biggest hesitation on pushing forward.

    if you want the ***s on the 'same level' as your maxed **s, I've read that the match damage evens out about level 104. although, a fully covered *** at 104 will have more damaging abilities in general. But I know I've taken several ***s to 102 (although most are still under-covered) and my scaling has not been affected much (sim hard was crazy but didn't need to do much on that side to rank/progress). if you look at your ***s match damage at 94 and your **s match damage at 94 you'll notice your ***s are behind. no idea why they structure it that was, but it is what it is. FYI, I do not use my Lthor in pve (for fear of scaling issues - no idea how founded that fear is). I have used my loki (none of his abilities are damage dealers so I figure it was safer). good luck.
  • Have to say, as many problems I've had with the Ultron event the Token draws I've gotten have been decent.

    my experience (very small sample size but my alliance's experience as well) is that the token draw rates within the first ~6 hrs or so are very high, but the remainder of the event was more normal. first event I pulled an IF and a SW with 2 of my first 4 covers and then not much else. this one, one of my first 3 tokens pulled xf. my last several were moonstones and bullseyes. still considering the 50hp daily. not sure about that one moving forward, even if my first one this event pulled xf.
