    Now I'm tempted to softcap my 11 cover Nova before my 11 cover Rulk. icon_e_smile.gif
    Boosted Iron Man 40 could be interesting too...

    4* - Nova, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Ghost Rider
    3* - Iron Man, Doctor Doom, The Hulk, Loki, Human Torch
    2* - Daken, Captain America
    1* - Spider-Man, Black Widow

    that sounds like a fun group for a heroic. this week's isn't bad, but this one sounds like a blast, even if its scaling based on a boosted maxed out character.

    I don't disagree with you, but the preview has Iso-8 Brotherhood which is a seven day event. No heroic will run while this group is boosted.

    Unfortunately this group will be boosted during ISO-8 Brotherhood only.

    yeah - just commenting on the strength of the group - especially that 3* list. plus add jean and xf. and nova and GR are fun together too - use those undercovered at level 70 for the 'harder' trivials.

    A small part of me is still hoping we won't have the 4* release until after ISO-8, so it can be a 4-day event, but I'm fearing the worst here. New character releases in a 7-day PvE are just awful.

    David, do you know whether that Iso-8 Brotherhood event will be rewarding a new character or not?

    Also, what are our chances of having a Q&A for March's dev Video?

    Thanks David but can you also get an update from the developers as to what will eventually happen to the prologue tab? It's currently there with no other function once all completed. I'm hoping for the nodes to become unlocked or add some non-competitive content for people to do.

    I dont understand why they are so hush hush about people coming until a day or two before they come , is it they dont have the rights to put them into the game until the day or two before or do they expect we are going to rip the idea off and make our own game icon_e_smile.gif

    They've said one before that certain things they aren't allowed to announce first, because another site purchased the rights to announce it, or something like that. I may be mis-remembering.

    I wish we could get some input on boosted character weeks. Like don't boost Sam America during a week when Hulkbuster is boosted if you ever want us to use Sam. Maybe give us some CD tiles we WANT to reduce. He's super fun with R&G and OML, but you know if you aren't running HB you are going to attacked hard because he's no good when the AI uses Sam (whereas HB runs well on D, has like 10K more health, etc.).

    Sure, on O you can one-shot a boosted HB for 14 redtile.png AP with 11+ protect tiles in play (which is super fun) and he's boosting my strike output by 484 for every blue match I make (also super fun with OML and R&G because it fuels more R&G strike tiles), but on D he just eats his own tiles and uses his yellow when the board is almost empty of yellows (and then eats his own protect tiles, R&G CD tiles, R&G strike tiles, OML red strike tiles, OML black strike tiles, etc.) and uses his red without protect tiles and without considering which target needs the heavy shield bomb.

    I'd love to use him, but for now he's only useful in PvE and during my initial climb to 700 in PvP. After that, he's just a target on your back for a 35K health boosted HB to punch out.

    they could still put


    Brotherhood (NEW) so we would know a new person was coming or not
