It's a Nemesis plot!

I use the electric sleep which does the same thing and it is great as long as the team fights on it. It is amazing for the Posi 1 City Hall waves of ambush

Is this a contact arc - I can just go red and do the arc?

I'm not familiar with cold domination. Originally buffs were by individual. But most that were intended to be group buffs were changed to hit an aoe. So with speed boost I can target one player and it buffs everyone around them. There are some buffs with longer recharge that are not intended to be used on everyone.

I have not made a kin/sonic yet. Sonic is my go to for defender secondaries due to the debuff. I really like my dark/sonic defender

Redside seems to be more active because everything is more active. So now is your chance to play redside and find a team. So try it - even if you have done it before.

Do you sell everything to the vendor, everything to the auction house? Do you set a price to get the value you want or just sell immediately for whatever you can get? How much do you work the market?

We were level 8. I don't recall seeing any ice patches

I appreciate everyone who creates teams

You should be limited to self only powers. But you should be able to turn on toggles and activate powers that only affect yourself.

The kin part is mostly hands off with speed boost combined with fiddly needing to redo siphon speed and siphon power frequently. I have not enjoyed it before now. But I am enjoying it paired with just a few attacks.

Many thanks for all of the fun costume updates!

time/dual pistols defender does not scratch my itch. It does a bit of everything but nothing dramatic. It's hard to tell that the enemies do 30% less damage, recharge 30% less, that my AOE heal + regen is doing some healing to my team, my aoe's are doing a bit of damage, etc. So I switched to kin/dual pistols defender for the siphon speed to make my aoe's rechage faster. And I ended up on a team in the Hollows on +3. And we wiped over and over again. After several wipes, I realized that the leader was using the arsenal control which has an aoe gas sleep that puts groups to sleep over and over again. Huge groups of them - in the outcast vs troll mission it slept all of the spawns in that corner hallway on the first floor. And I was waking them all up with my aoe. Basically the entire team quit and we re-filled. So I can't say it was just me. But with the new team I stopped using aoe and we slowly picked off the trolls one by one as the rest slept. It was painfully slow taking on +3s as we could barely hit. But that aoe sleep was a game changer when we let them stay asleep. So now I have to go try the arsenal control. But I bet my teammates use aoe and wake them all up.

I try to log out to get the day jobs just because. And I don't usually bother unless I am parking a character for a long time. But I don't pay attention to them really.

I'm a huge Marvel fan from my youth. But that was the late 70's and 80's. I stopped reading around 90 when the comics became dark. I want Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes not Civil War.

My desires for a superhero movie are fairly simple I want to see a superhero in costume fighting a supervillain in costume. I don't want time spent on an origin story. I don't want superheroes fighting superheroes. I don't want superheroes or supervillains fighting in normal clothes. So for me Iron Man 2 is almost perfect. Winter Soldier is also in my top 3.

I don't study enemies enough to know what their defenses are. I only know clockwork are weak to psi because there was a loading tip about it. I am planning on using incendiary to solo and probably radiation on teams.

I look at the stats in game but with the various ammo options I cannot tell what the numbers actually are for damage. And guides don't seem to be a thing anymore - just uncommented builds. It seems that there are 3 single target attacks with dual pistols - pistol, dual wield, and suppressive fire. And people say take pistol and suppressive fire and skip dual wield. Does suppressive fire do more damage than dual wield as a power, or is it and IO thing with procs or something else that makes suppressive fire good? Looking at a 3 second hold with incendiary ammo seems pointless. So I would skip suppressive fire unless it is actually a good damage attack.

Whereas Iron Man 2 for me is in my top 5 MCU movies. Iron Man I find okay but not good and Iron Man 3 was terrible. And Civil War was unbearable.

Yes. I wanted to see Marvels in the theater. But knowing it was coming to Disney+ I made no special effort to get out and see it and ended up just waiting.

Incarnates - I don't play above level 30, so I know nothing of incarnates Missions - the two ways to get groups are in your SG chat or in LFG chat. The LFG automatic group forming is not used by people. Posting in LFG that you are looking for a group does nothing. People post in LFG that they have a group and need members. You send a message to them directly and they add you to the team. Leveling - AE farming is still the fast way to level. You can get a 2x XP boost from the START vendor and that is very common. Badges - I don't do badges anymore (did it on live) but there must be a guide. Check out the guides board on this site Supergroups - There some very active SGs but SGs don't seem to be as big a deal as they were in live.

I just saw The Marvels and it was great. Easily in the top 10 MCU movies and close to the top 5. But then I loved Quantumania as well - in my top 3 MCU movies. The MCU is doing very well. People just don't remember how the MCU used to be and compare it to Endgame - the culmination of 15 years of movies. But if you look at the box office for the early MCU and now, it is clear that Avengers movies (or Civil War which was basically an Avengers movie) do great as do Spider-man and a few other movies. The rest have really varied in box office. And while the movies have generally done worse in the past few years - that is post Covid and movies are just doing a lot worse. I don't think there is superhero fatigue or bad superhero-movie fatigue. I think there is mis-remembering history syndrome.

People are lazy using AI as a writing assistant. But not nearly as lazy for that as for using a computer to play a superhero game. Proper humans play Champions TTRPG and don't use computers for any of it.
