Finish the Prologue? Do shield training for progression rewards? Hang out at the forum? Read guides and tips and tricks to improve your game during the next event you can play in?

I've seen some really weak teams in the DA tournament.

Finished the prologue last year. Nothing worth gaining in Shield training.

Presently reading through the forums, just feels weird having this much time on my hands again.

Mine would be one of them if I could even win one battle. My MMR is way to high and my highest level DA is at 40.

I know what you mean. I am forum-ing while my health packs recharge.

Tank your mmr rating in shield training so you can have more fun in pvp tourneys?

I have to do all 3 events still and I'll be at PAX all day again tomorrow. I figure I can catch up while waiting in lines, especially on the PvP, but it's a bit of pressure for me to deal with. On the bright side, I've gotten some painfully juicy info out of the devs, but I'd rather not blab it on the forums before they're ready to tell you guys. Nothing earth-shattering, but a few things that are super cool to know.

Um... Tease much? How much do you love having more info than the forumites? That makes you the supreme leader of MPQ knowledge.

I'm only teasing as much as Ice and some other guy was at the booth. I guess one tidbit they wouldn't be irritated at me giving out is that Daken's getting a third skill, but he didn't say if it was active or what color it was (I said oh boy another unique color combination in the 3*'s, and he said it won't necessarily be that color, sooo... it's in the air!). Another upcoming character was also discussed, and some upcoming balancing changes.. and by upcoming I mean he named the only real problematic character to the game.

So I can max my mags without fear of Funbalancing? Ice teased a third Blue skil for Daken in character discussion! Black, purple, blue? OBW colors? What's Ice like in person? I imagine him like a white knight on a crit-tile color-changing horse - delivering MPQ news to all the lands! Am I close?

Well he could look like the asian version of Gandalf.

I didn't say that! We did have a brief discussion on how, with recent character additions, Magneto seems way less overpowered in the light of various skills, especially with the recent patch fix to his purple. His blue is basically his biggest usage now, and the red is pretty mediocre without a lot of strike tiles (although that could very well be balanced by just making it destroy more tiles and cost more, effectively 3* Juggernaut in that regard). He just said what they have their focus on, I could see blue being slightly more expensive or reworked to give you good reason to use it as defense, a lot of things are possible. But it seems like a certain character's rebalancing is far more important than any other character.

What I like about C.Mags blue is that I can use it offensively when I'm playing, and the AI uses blue for me defensively when it's playing ( I'd prefer the AI used them like I did, but having shield tiles is better than nothing).

@kamahi

When you say things like "that 1 character" and "a certain characters rebalancing"
Like 95%+ of the forums assumes u mean spidey. So unless you are coming at us with some new info the entire player base has been oblivious to in some other cover that's broken, it's spidey. You don't have to hide it. Lol

Mawtful

Did they reveal the cover/costume they're giving Lazy Daken? I'd kind of like it to be his dark brown/gold + bandages ninja outfit (from Daken: Dark Wolverine).

Exactly! Your description is way better than mine but I think we're both thinking the same thing!

Lol. I see what you are saying about Mags, I never noticed he was bugged in the first place -I have a 5/5/3 mags because I don't use his purple a lot. Thanks for sharing your spoilers from PAX! It sounded like a fun time!

So, when are we getting anything official about this?

Which one was IceIX? Flat top, curly hair, or Asian guy?

Didn't bother to ask, but I assumed curly hair. He gave me a really IceIX answer for something I asked.

Also, there's another new character coming after LazyDaken. I only told my alliance who it is.

Some1 already said it was falcon. Most of my alliance is hoping that's a lie and that it's really some1 who is actually cool.
