The Buff List

Does the buff list never change again?
It's the third week with the same.

I'm tired of fighting May Parker, Hulks...

    I'd take this list forever.

    The devs commented on the "What's New" thread that the buff list is continuing for the 4 weeks of Anniversary. In case you haven't realized it, the buff list is all the zombie cover-swapped characters, and having them buffed means that you will see them in PVP and hence earn points towards the community challenge when fighting them.

    If they rotated away from these specific characters no one would run them and our progress would drop off dramatically.

    It's a catch-22. They should have put in more covers so they could rotate it, or just rotate among the ones they have in game, or something, though.

    I sort of like it as Moon Knight and Elektra are fun. I haven't really used iHulk much. I champed MayDay for the boost but she is a bit dull but I may stick her out on defence a bit.

    Spidey with 5* powerstone, MThor or Ascended Venom with 5* quantum realm, featured with 5* batons. Start with 12 purple and turn one most games. Repeat for 24 wins and chuck Eros, Leapfrog and fantasticar on for match 25. Close game and forget pvp exists.

    What's not to love.

    Everyone else who doesn't have all those 5* supports.
    Maybe we will agree with you in 1-2 years when we can all get our supports to 5

    Seriously. It's not easy to get those supports to level 5.

    Exactly I did them with standard tokens levelling up with shards. I also didn't sleep on supports when so many others were calling them trash for 4 years. I chased and hoarded the tokens where ever I could and timed my pulls as the vaults rotate. Heroic events have helped a lot too.

    They are trash, just for another reason.

    Someone else mentioned it on the forums, but getting supports to level 5 gets easier the more 5 star supports you have because they all feed your favorited support. I've been trying to get higher placement in PVP in different slices for the extra support shards at the expense of higher points in the first slice. I can usually get a 4 star to 5 star in a month or less.

    It was me, or at least I'm pretty sure I was the first to note this way back when shards were first announced because at that time I had a few at R5 and immediately noticed when trying to one from R4 to R5 it went quite fast because of all the duplicates I was pulling for R5 supports I had.

    I got tired of 672 May Parker with leapfrog nonsense and settled on ascended Ikaris + immortal hulk. Immortal Hulk plus the gamma ray support is really fun, and Ikaris can carry Omnipotence City!
