I'm having a hard time focusing and leveling one hero. My highest is 35 and I think my next goal will be to get everyone I have to 25.

How badly am I fucking myself by not racing to max level ASAP? I don't really care about being raid ready. I play at most two nights a week.

I did that when the game first came out, and there was only Limbo as an end-game experience. The story ran through level 24-27 and you got your last power at 30. That is completely different now

The only thing that getting max level does is give you a significant xp boost to all your heroes and the second synergy passive at level 50.

Its a huge boost for leveling other heroes. Thing is now, with all of the upper level stuff to do, x-def, Midtown, terminals, its really not a slog at all. Also, many old and all new heroes are built on a 52-level power distribution now; you don't get your ultimate/last power until level 52.

Nightcrawler is completely bad ass and Iron Man stays as one of the strongest heroes.

Take what people say about how "good" a hero is with a grain of salt. All of them now are fine to 60; there is a definitely hierarchy around who can most easily complete Cosmic terminals but its not like end-game WoW/EQ/whatever at this point.

K couldn't access the forums for some reason, started downloading the client. I'll check out the heroes, so I kinda know what to buy, probably buy a couple to use the BOGO thingie before it ends.

Hmmm. The current test center build has been up for a while. They tend to wipe when they take it down, but I still have my Psylocke I was testing. It's possible that if they do a user database copy when they put up a new build, and your account is new, that you're not in the TC database yet.

What do people typically do to level as fast as possible? I'm only playing my first hero now (Black Panther) so I'm doing the storyline, but after that/for other characters, what is the quickest method? I don't like the idea of running the story over and over...

What is this Team Up thing that (annoyingly) opens every time I open my inventory/character screen?

Legendary quests(odin marks) are good exp.
Team-up is like your mercenary in diablo. You can have them out at all times or set them up so that when they aren't present they all give +rare, special, credit find 10 and some other procs/stats. Falcon gives passive crit and DMG rating, Firestar is spirit cost reduction and DMG rating, Spiderman is dodge, Magik is pet buff. There are more character choices on the way.

Think you may be correct. Also what's the difference in loot color gear? I asked in social the different colors shades of green and blue gear and no one seemed to know. Here is a screen shot of what I'm referring to.

Yeah test is up but my new account couldn't log in, I used my old one though and got in fine. Think I'm gonna get the Torch and maybe another, thinking maybe Nightcrawler. There's no new hero next patch right? Hero remakes maybe?

Loot colors I think is how long it's been on the ground or some shit? I don't know I noticed that too but it didn't seem to have any logic to it nor did it seem to matter.

Oh btw there's no real summoner type hero yet right? I saw Kage had like a bunch of summons but don't like him at all, didn't really see anything else even though a lot of heroes do have like 1 summon here and there.

If you're referring to the light/dark versions of the same color, I think it's whether you can equip it or not, I don't remember.

Green is common, blue is uncommon, purple is elite, and orange is epic. (Edit: Oh, and then yellow is legendary? Not sure what's better between yellow and orange.) The titles might not be right, but that's the progression. And grey is worse than green.

The darker shades mean that they're not equippable by your current character/level.

After purple is yellow which is Cosmic, uniques are gold. Power levels vary between the 3. Usually depends on your build as well.

It's been said a lot, but this game has turned around a lot since release. The developers seem to really enjoy and care about their product and the IP. The number of special events and new content has really amazed me. All the heroes are pretty strong when geared, so don't feel the need to play anything because someone on the forums claims they are the best. I'd advise trying a lot of heroes and builds out and playing one that "feels" right and you enjoy playing.

Despite the rather large community, there isn't as much actual hard data on performance as I would expect. The community guy doing most of the number crunching got hired by gazillion. I've seen it more than once where a hero people avoided because everyone was told it was weak becomes popular after someone posts a video of a crazy clear time for Doom or Kurse. This is a game where you are rewarded for leveling and trying a number of heroes. Between the XP boosts and Synergies you are really missing out if you only level one hero. I thought I would love Ironman based on forum and in game feedback, but I really didn't like playing him. It was the opposite with Squirrel Girl.

Well you have to log in once during the week to get the pack thing apparently. Not sure if there's anything else.

Started playing Torch, really like him, feels a lot more superpowerish than Black Panther, mostly because of the spell effects and very large aoes, shit's pretty cool and he's pretty nice to play so far. Already caught up with BP anyway. I got Hulk token from buying him too, which is nice(beats getting a Black Panther token as my redeem code gift on Black Panther...).

Btw didn't you use to get like a 2nd free hero at some point, after beating Dr Doom or something? Does this still exist? Free starter I guess but would still be nice.

Torch is probably the best example of a glass cannon in the game.

He also has the fastest cosmic Kurse clear time I've seen by a decent margin, 1 minute 26 seconds.

They changed it at some point to a story completion splinter bonus. 100 splinters for defeating Green Goblin and 100 splinters for defeating doom for the first time on an account. I did read at one point this was only if you picked a 200 splinter starter hero and didn't apply if you picked a 400 splinter hero. There are posts as recent as a month ago stating 400 splinter starters were still getting the 200 bonus splinters.
