Hey Everyone,

Here are the final release notes for the R118 patch!

MPQ R118!
Armed with her own improvised Iron Man suit and ready to kick bad guy butt, the hero called Ironheart will be a force to be reckoned with.

"Starting to feel haunted"

What's Changed:
    • Powers levels correctly increase or decrease the AP cost of the power based on Power Level when applicable.
    • This fix also addresses the bug pertaining to Passive abilities, such as Quake and Jean Grey (Phoenix)
• Respecing non-championed characters will properly consume the cover in the player's reward cache and it will no longer consume Command Points.
• Reduce the amount of black loading screens in the game.
• Smoothed out the way XP notifications were displayed.
• Addressed some rare cases where the game would crash when launching the game.
• Hawkeye (Modern)'s power Blast Arrow now displays the correct description at power level 5.
• Silver Surfer (Skyrider)'s power Cosmic Beam now has the correct tense at power level 2.
• Doctor Strange (Classic)'s power Eye of Agamotto can only be activated if there is a basic tile on the board.
• Blade (Modern)'s power Bloodlust now plays an animation when it activates.
• Moon Knight (Marc Spector)'s power Moonsilver Blades can no longer be fired if there is not a valid enemy.
• Teisatsu's power Turn to Smoke will no longer display a banner when there isn't any available tiles for the power to create attack tiles on.

    Just figured out where my missing cp went. The game used my cp to respec PHX instead of the cover i had. So it used both my extra cover and 720cp. Also explains why i couldn't respec my BSS today, didn't have enough cp for it to steal.

    Any plans to fix black Suit Spiderman's purple? It doesn't reduce strikes to 1.

    You should open a customer support ticket, they may be able to restore your CP.

    If this is regarding 'From the Ashes' not triggering due to Thanos's Court Death, there is currently a bug report open that the developers are aware of, and they're working on a fix.

    Yes. I agree. If you believe you are affected by this bug, then please send in a support ticket, and Customer Support will help you out.

    I'm not sure that maters - it says it will stop it from firing if there is no valid target. This will only matter defensively -for example if the only member of your team not downed is airborne, he won't waste it on a person who can't be hit.

    It does hit invisible targets, right? Since it's not actually directed? But possibly you can't fire it because you don't know there are invisible targets?

    Now I'm a bit confused - can we get a bit more on this?

    That's half of it, Ashes won't trigger when stunned even though the ability reads:
    This power can fire while Jean Gray is stunned

    It also fails to generate the resurrection CD when she dies as a result of a double match 5. (The stunning thing is a bigger issue though)

    I have an open ticket right now for this very reason. Hope this means I'll be getting my Command Points back soon.

    While I do think it could be a bit clearer, I don't think it's wrong.

    I assume you feel that as described, it should not cost red AP when you have 10 TU AP?

    The "instead" means that instead of destroying a selected tile and doing X damage, it consumes 10 Team-Up AP, deals Y damage, and destroys a selected row. The Team-Up AP consumption is part of the power's effects, not a replacement for its red AP cost.

    I think the "instead" is unnecessary, though. It adds more ambiguity than it removes. They were probably trying to avoid the impression that with 10 TU AP on hand, it would do X + Y damage.

    But anyway, this is not the appropriate thread for unrelated issues such as this. Please head over to Bugs and Technical issues and look for an existing topic on the issue or start a new one, especially for concerns that didn't even start with R117 in the first place.

    Seven star version, coming out in Octember. Instead of consuming ISO for levels, you have to feed it fully champed 3* or 5* Doctors Strange.

    Reduce the amount of black loading screens in the game.

    Thanks god, on a PC, this seems excessively long when:
    * entering an node
    * using token
    * switching between events

    It seems like 10% of my time is waiting on the transition screens.

    Underwhelming to say the least.

    Nobody gonna take a chance at the hint? All right, then.

    I'm gonna guess it's Nuke, the pill-popping guy with PTSD that had a part in Jessica Jones! Super popular character, right? Right?

    Right...?

    I still believe we'll see Nuke and Hellcat before we see Jessica Jones.

    Obviously you don't play Magic the Gathering. This was clear as day to me. Activate the power by paying it's Ap cost, it does x, but if you have 10 teamup ap it does y instead. If it changed the cost of the power, it would have said so in the description. That has been done plenty of times, like Spider Gwen's red power.

    I'm going to be a little sad to see 2* Magneto's red go back to the correct cost. It's been a ton of fun to use that with the new 4* Captain Marvel to skip the 1-turn countdown. It's almost an infinite loop in itself!
