... Bagman essential in PVE.

I "know" the devs want to. It'll be the ultimate troll. Imagine people scrambling to get Bagman covers icon_e_biggrin.gif My alliance mate is laughing at me collecting Bagman covers ever since 2* essentials started.

Any chance of that happening?

    This is extremely unlikely, honestly. They removed Bagman from token drops (did they add him back in when they consolidated them this last time?), so I don't think they have any plans to do anything with him.

    Everything else is fair game, though, at the moment - especially Moonstone.

    I just checked to be sure and he's still not on the lists.

    I expect he'll be essential for the next new character release PvE.

    Might be a good time to get into the friendly Bag-Man competition just in case... icon_e_wink.gif

    I wish they would just toss Bagman or downgrade him to a 1*, downgrade the current 3* Spider-Man to a 2*, and give us a totally different 3* Spider-Man (Black Suit)

    yeah - level 200 daken no fun at all with a limited roster. takes some strategy to get through that node...or some luck. I prefer the lvl 395 hulk 3 on one than the lvl 200 daken with the pyro goons. my Lthor literally had 300 health left when I did that one this morning.

    It's the luck of the draw, or lack thereof. It took me about 200 days to win 13 covers of Bagman.

    I really don't understand why so many people hate 3* Spidey. In my opinion he is a solid support character, and personally I use him always in DDQ (his passive protect tiles, stun and healing help a lot).

    We already have Venom, why not get more interesting? I'd love to see Ben Reilly or Scarlet Spider instead.

    He was my first fully covered 3* and I still could not find a place for him. He's too much of a support character, many players have been begging for an offensive power. I like his purple too but it's frustrating that it only works when you match it (unlike Bullseye) so you need to bring a good Pink user but all the Pink users are better support characters: Loki, OBW, Kamala Khan to name a few. Yes he can heal but the healing amount is determined by web tiles, his blue stun is not as good as Steve Rogers or Daredevil.. his whole character is designed around web tiles. If they drop the web tile gimmick, his powers would be a bit more useful. It also doesn't help that if he's by himself, you might as well start the match over.

    I would love Scarlet Spider or even Spiderman 2099. In terms of popularity, players would probably want Black Suit but I'm open to any Spiderman other than the two we have.

    Spider-Gwen would be more realistic with how insanely popular she has become lately.

    what's to understand, he sucks - our judgements don't prevent you from using him

  • I'm actually trying to build a full covered Bagman. But the only place I have gotten his covers since trying to build him is by winning fights in PVP. But I haven't gotten one in over a month or so now.

    I think I got one dropped in an LR if I remember right? hes sitting in my queue waiting along with many marvels/moonstones/bullseyes/torches/caps (20 assorted covers for those characters)
