Has anyone leveled a 4* to 230?

Basically just the title, I haven't seen one before, so I was just curious if people deem it unnecessary or just a waste of iso. I know IW and X-force aren't exactly great characters, but you would think maybe x-force with the hood wouldn't be too bad

    X-Force is bad, there's no other way to put it, only funbalance can help him but he's obviously not a priority on the to-do list. I would be extremely surprised if he were balanced during the following two months, lol.
    IW wins at annoying (maybe a tie with Daken, I don't know) other than that no reason to use her (overpriced and squishy).

    Edit: to answer your question, I have yet to see a non-cheater maxed 4*, but some people are getting closer.

    walkyourpath has a 207 IW right now: he'll probably have it maxed out in the next month or so.
  • There are some of us that love IW.

    To answer your question though walkyourpath and CH are the only players on the forum that I know are actively working on it but there might be others.

    You can check them out in the S.H.I.E.L.D and scAvengers alliances, respectively.
  • cebe from my alliance has a 200+ IW, that's his main character and she is a beast, but so expensive to level up, 2 weeks ago he mentioned that it was costing 4k iso per level at that point
  • My IW is around 170 and she's my primary focus. Not sure who calls a cover with around 7k health squishy.....
  • Invisible Woman is so underestimated by the members here. I hope she's in another PVE event soon so I can feed on some tears.
  • So have any of you guys taken her out in the PVP wild yet? Wondering how it would go on defense especially since her invisibility glitch has still not been fixed.(right?)

    Waiting on my 5th blue to respec her. Going from 4-5 doubles the strength of the protect tile so it's a pretty big deal.

    Hmm... 7k health does sound better (thought she only had 5k or something). But go on level your IWs, I'd like to see if she's as easily shut down by the Hood as LT.

    When she turns my Hood invisible he'll just sit there and laugh at yours icon_lol.gif

    Doh, who can't kill the Hood before they get 14 yellow (or what the cost is)?
  • With AI being what it is, I wouldn't worry about leveling a 4* that has low health...
  • Got mine to 210 now - should have her finished in the next week or two. IW/Hood on defense coming soon to a node near you. icon_e_smile.gif

    I think Pun/Hood/Falcon against IW/Hood would work like a charm

    And C.Mags would deny her blue too, but it will be a looooong match either way.

    For those of you who have IW at 200+ level, what is the best build 3/5/5 ? or 5/5/3 ? (It seems there is a little bit of a debate about it in her thread)

    3/5/5 is the best build in my opinion. 5 green gives maximum damage and AP gain. Some people argue that it raises the risk of destroying defense/invis tiles, which is true, but the AP gain should more than mitigate that. Most times, by the time that I'm ready to use FFCrush, the extra AP means I'm close to ending the match or ready to recast force bubbles on the next turn anyway. 5 yellow just gives a -2 AP cost for a power that's a late game focus anyways.

    She's not a Top 5 character, don't misunderstand me. But she's effective, and a ton of fun to play with.

    I am levelling up my Xforce, but more of just as a personal goal than a good reason.
    Just hit level 133, still useless, but hopefully he comes in to his own right? icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • He's on the character balance queue so he should be....buffed. or something about him will have to change to make him viable. he can't change at the core what he is which is a wolverine...lays strike tiles, can heal, and does straight up massive single target damage. That's who is he is at at the core...and you can play around with those ideals. I think his current skills actually are really good, just cost too much. if they were taken down to the 6 ap range, he would almost be guaranteed to see more play. Or make his yellow a passive or passive/match.

    I want to level-up my Invisible Woman, but I've only been able to get two tinykitty covers for her. I want to pair her with Johnny and She-Hulk and be the first to field an all-FF team, but alas it will be (at minimum) months before my IW is ready to go.

    My X-Force Wolvie is currently 5/3/3 and I won't waste a single point of ISO on him until changes are made, IF changes are made.
