    Why not? Weak boosted characters means PvP gets fun since everyone plays different teams. PvE becomes a bit of slog though.

    Well, based on the pattern it will definitely be Carnage and Invisible Woman. With them will be two of the following: Miles, Elektra, War Machine or Cho. Feel free to consult the Weekly Buffed Characters List icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I think Cho is a lock, and I think War Machine is out since Peggy Carter was boosted this week. Miles and Elektra have been buffed together for two weeks, so I expect only one of them to appear. I'd prefer Miles since Venom Bomb gets a lot easier when you have a stunner on the team.

    There's the greatest character of them all! Totally Doesn't Need A Rework Hulk!

    Just noticed Earth's Mightiest being next. Please, please, have Peggy be buffed for that one.

    4* - Carnage, Invisible Woman, Miles Morales, War Machine
    3* - Steve Rogers (Super Soldier), Daredevil, Human Torch, Loki, Squirrel Girl
    2* - Ares, Wolverine
    1* - Iron Man, Storm

    might actually skip a heroic. this could be the longest three day event ever.

    Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) is one of the boosted in Earth's Mightiest. So, confirmation that the next pve event Venom Bomb is her release?

    So, 3* HT is an essential for the upcoming Heroic: Oscorp and part of the list of the boosted characters. Not to mention the fact that the majority of the characters will have to fight over redtile.png. Are these oversights?

    Required: Hulk (Totally Awesome)

    Hi David, and others @ Demiurge!!

    I implore you, unsarcastically/unironically -- please look at the completion stats for this Crash Of The Titans, even (especially) among those who have Cho max-covered. He's so frustratingly underwhelming to use -- "frustrating" in the sense that some great ideas are there, but with general implementation that is just too restricting, wonky, and weak. There've been so many fantastic ideas bandied about on this forum for possible ways to vastly improve him with just some minor tweaks.

    "The Totally Awesome Hulk" has been one of the best Marvel books of the past year, in my opinion. I'd love for this game to do the character justice; not just for the sake of the character and whatever cross-media promotion that goes into launches like his, but for the overall health of the game. Even all the "low-tier" 4*s (e.g., Star-Lord) I enjoy using from time to time. Cho, though, in his current state, simply feels broken and unfinished -- truly an unpolished Bag-Hulk of a trophy character, doomed to warm the bench forever.

    Thank you!,
    -M-

    Marc, the completion stats may not paint a very accurate picture of Cho's (lack of) power, because he's one of the characters who benefits from a nerfed opponent. Last time I won on the first try with a 2/3/5 Cho leveled below 110, and I expect the fight won't be changed this time around (in the same way that Rulk still faces as level 222 Hulk).
