Another great candidate for a 6* is Master Mold.

Master Mold ISN’T a cosmic character, so no. 6* is for cosmic characters only. Try a celestial instead.

I bet we get Ego. I hope we get Captain Universe.

There’s plenty of Elders of The Universe, Celestials, Eternity, Infinity, Master Order & Lord Chaos, Death, etc.

If they created Master Mold today he’d probably be an AI that took off into space with Sentinels and made his own planet to launch a mutant attack from.

Maybe he could be the 2310 Master Mold who did that or something.

Boom, Cosmic

Here’s an idea the devs haven’t thought of that might invigorate this game. Instead of creating 6* level characters, why not create NEW CAMPAIGNS/STORIES to make this game even better. Week after week we keep playing the same damn campaigns, which kind of makes this game monotonous. It’s the same boring campaign every time. The devs haven’t thought made new boss campaigns, but that’s it. It would be nice if they created something new other than creating ways to siphon money away from us off cheap gimmicks like 6* characters or ascending old ones. With new stories coming out, that would certainly keep interest in the game in my opinion if they really cared about MPQ. Just a thought.

Absolutely agree, no new stories since Black Widow, about 5 years ago?

unity was supposed to help out with this, NO NEWS at all from Devs

I will point out that while some people absolutely do read the flavor texts/nodes/cut scenes, many people don't and just treat any PVE as just a bag of nodes to be done as quickly as possible. Heck, I'd tend to think the majority of people are like that, to be honest. I used to read them, but I really don't anymore, so I'd consider myself somewhere in the middle.

Just saying that this may be appealing to some, to many people (possibly even most of the player base,) it is a very small incentive.

I've never read any of them. I've been playing this game for 12 years and I couldn't tell you what any of the PVE story lines are about.

Dunno how long you've been around but the early PvEs all actually told a coherent story that progressed event by event. They were meant to run in a certain order (now it's just random), and a bunch of them have been retired by now, but it was definitely a thing.

I've been around since about a month after the game launched, but I was very casual in the beginning. I only logged in every day to get my daily reward and mostly just played a few easy nodes in PVE or in the prologue. It wasn't until the deadpool daily came around and there was an actual real way to earn 3* covers that I started playing more.

The game was called Marvel Puzzle Quest: Dark Reign back then and the idea was that they'd eventually implement the entire Dark Reign storyline from the comics. That's why the old PvEs were like 95% Dark Avengers. I'm not super familiar with the comics so I'm not sure how far they ended up getting, then at some point they just sorta gave up.

It was still called Dark Reign when I first started playing, but i fell off for quite a long time before coming back. But when I did, the stories were still reasonably coherent. If new PVE showed up, I'd read it through the first time and never again probably though.

They said they’d never do 6*s.

BOOM, 6*s.

That was the company before this one. I remember asking them years ago. I asked along with if they would ever go higher than SCL 10 and they said they would never do either.

BOOM, there we go.

To quote this details listed in this thread:

"Initially, these characters will focus on extremely powerful or iconic Marvel figures, setting a high benchmark for the rarity. Over time, we’ll expand our horizons to include other characters, keeping the roster dynamic and exciting."

Just FYI because I'm not certain where you're getting the "cosmic characters only" info.

That's incorrect, they (this team) stated in several of the Q&As they used to do that 6s weren't something they were interested in creating.

Godzillafan67

My guess for the third 6* release is Cosmic Ghost Rider.

Oh, good call!

Blackstone

There are some good guesses here but...
I think it's just as likely we'll get Mr. Immortal.

ThaRoadWarrior

I hope we get some Starjammers and Shi’ar, maybe a Brood Queen.

They said they would use extremely powerful and iconic characters, which I think master mold counts as, and they also said they would expand that to lesser characters over time.

BOOM you made up the cosmic thing in your head and are talking out of your back side.

Master Order & Lord Chaos should be done as a pair like Cloak & Dagger... Oo, the In-Betweener could be fun!

bluewolf

I am all for cosmic beings but once you do the like.....8?....that most people can name from memory you're starting to get into characters who showed up like 5 times in comics and aren't very exciting when the whole point is to get people to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on each one.

Does anyone really want PVP to be your team of Celestials vs the opponent's team of Celestials so you can chase Mistress Love?

TriSentinel

Dormammu and The Living Tribunal are other characters I hope make the 6* roster.

Quasar is one cosmic character I hope we never see.

I quite like the use of BOOM, im gonna try to use in everyday life
