Remember while Thor does less AoE, he does more single target, by an extra 1128, that could mean downing someone or not With 3 enemies in play CtS deals 9036, Bash deals 10170 With 2 enemies in play CtS deals 6777, Bash deals 6780 With 1 enemy in play CtS deals 4518, Bash deals 3390 The fact that Thor frontloads a larger chunk of damage onto the targeted enemy is definitely the main deciding factor between the two abilities. Although Bash is still technically better with only two enemies, in realistic play , you're more likely to want more damage on one enemy than the other. However, since the abilities are actually so close in terms of damage, I think it's highly unlikely that you'd be running a team with both characters together. So the choice between the two is really only one that you're going to have to make before a match. I'm still only 9/13 covers, but I'm interested in getting her maxed to see if she can do anything defensively in PvP. Thor is AI-proof, and has a big enough health pool that means a cascade or two in his favour could get you a defensive victory. Kamala is a lot squishier, and the AI has no idea how to use her purple - however, she's potentially frustrating and could be equally likely to generate a few upsets if the AI gets a lucky cascade.

I'm thinking of making her a mainstay right now. The constant healing ensures that pretty much no one ever dies and the board is filled with yellow making mutant revoluntionary inredibly common making botb also inredibly common and making optic blasts come out very frequently. The only color that is shared is green realistically and I've been willing to sacrifice we got ya for a 1500+ aoe embiggened bash anyday(with I got a plan strike tiles up) My only issue with her so far is that I feel her purple isn't doing a lot. For this style I think I'm leaning towards a 5/3/5 build for her. I really feel like these tile changing moves don't do a lot unless it's technopathic strike IMO. Maybe it's just cause I only have 1 cover
Cyclopes wrote: It's not just the fact that the ability isn't doing much it's also paired with the fact that it's just not coming out that often. I've gotten maybe only one of it out in a game whereas I get tons of mutant revolutionaries. For me I think that having more points in BOTB would be a little bit more beneficial considering. At least paired with grocket/Cyclops that is. Anyone else, maybe i'm wrong but for now a 5/3/5 seems optimal
Cyclopes wrote: I'm glad my team isn't horrible. It's worked really well for me thus far. Kamalas green, with grockets blue out, only at 1 cover does 1500 damage to the whole team. It's pretty ridiculous. And with all the optic blasts I've been getting, Cyclops just constantly chunks. Full blast immediately destroys any character. And most of the time I don't even have I got a plan out. I've gotten through matches purely through Cyclops raw power. I bought into all of Cyclops covers when he came out because he's my favorite character. There's just something about characters with things covering their eyes that gets me. My grocket is only 4/4/5 because unfortunately thats the hand I was dealt. And since he's not in packs anymore i'm just stuck with what I've got. But yea. If people think that 5 in purple would be more beneficial than 5 in yellow than i'll take their word for it.
Phaserhawk wrote: I"m closing in on getting her covered right now 5/3/5 will be the easiest to get but having a real issue trying to figure out if 3/5/5 or 5/3/5 or 4/4/5 are the way to go. With the new health increases I"m not sure if that makes yellow more valuable, since matches will go longer, or less vaulable since characters have more health, although going 5/3/5 would make sense if you paired her with say Loki or Hood.

With lthor and KK, there would be two colors that help to accelerate green ap collection... Of course I would then use her green over his. Plus her green is 2 less ap than his... Or do people feel like the green overlap is not worth it? Thoughts?

Psylocke is only really useful on level 60 teams because she can down them so fast, I haven't found much of a use for Marvel (may use her on Daken node grind downs if Hulk is hurting). Kamala is good on a lot of PvE teams but the other 2 are really bad.

Marvel tanks red and black for Psylocke, so any time she takes a moderate amount of damage you get red and black AP, making Psylocke even faster. It's not quite as fast as Marvel/Daken/Torch, but it has more sustainability thanks to Kamala's healing.

Blade is better, but Psylock is still nice with this combo. For Khan I think LThor is an awsome pairing as you have 2 powers to spam the board with green and 2 green Nukes. She can also pair well it's Mystique. Mystique uses blue and black and Khan uses purple and green. I like the idea of Khan Psylock, and captain marvel, but that would mean actually putting ISO into captain marvel instead of IF, or IW in the near future. So sad

Purple is really fun to use and actually very powerful even with only 4 tile conversion. At 7 tiles is plain ridiculous. Yellow regenerates over 600 to everybody at level 160 which basically undoes 7-9 turns worth of match damage and after a few activations can totally blank out full powers. Green at max is literally stronger than Call the storm (10k+ total damage to CtS's 8.8k+), cheaper and Inhuman Stretchiness is better than Thunder Strike at gathering green, anyway.
