Eh...

Limbo scrolls? Cool, they'll never drop because Gaz is full of shit
63 packs of Eternity Splinter and double chances for 10 drop packs? Double 0% is still 0%
Hero tokens dropping? How many people have found hero tokens in Cosmic MM? 3?

Everything else seems decent and hopefully the new game mode is actually fun unlike Ultron but the biggest draws for this event are all smoke and mirrors.

Yeah but those three things are just one-off hype for the inaugural Mystic Mayhem.

Dramatically increased rare rune drops for a week is pretty good by itself, plus an extra 3 skill points for every hero? We'll have to see if the Mayhem Coffers you get from nastirh are actually worth a shit.

Well with the new Hearthstone xpac looking like crap, it's looking like I'm gonna drop my preorder money on MH instead. Probably get a bundle of odin boosts and a bunch of stash space.

This game is in dire need of a loot filter. CMM is a pain in the ass to sort through all the shit on the ground. This would be a perfect way to filter loot. Taken from the MH forums:

I'd love it if I could set filters to auto-destroy or vacuum the following:
Non-purple insignias
Cores that don't have 25% heal on medkit.
Rings that aren't cosmic or unique
teamup gear that isn't purple or gold
All artifacts except for 4 or 5 specific ones (I could live with skipping this filter, they don't drop all that often)
All common runes
All elements
Non-cosmic medallions

So thinking I might play this for a couple of weeks before the D3 new patch, haven't played in like a year, last time I played Silver Surfer was just added. 2 questions on heroes:

What's the best summoner hero nowadays? Heard Doom was good(though not sure I have enough thingies to buy him, I'd need to log in and check) but also that's he's probably getting nerfed(maybe not his summoner build? no idea), what would be a good alternative? When I played, Squirrel Girl was really strong but most other summoners were kinda shit.

Similar question but about fast agile melees. I know most melees really are kinda fast with the right gear and shit, like even Hulk moves and hits fast, but I meant more in terms of style. I didn't really like Black Panther even though he was pretty good, Nightcrawler was weak, Psylocke was weak and I can't really remember another one, so in the end I leveled a bunch but never really played one seriously.

Best summoner is Doom, there is only speculation about him being nerfed but it seems likely, he's op. Other good summoners are Iceman, Loki, Rocket, and maybe Rogue. Squirrel Girl is terrible atm, been buggy ever since they made some big sweeping changes to summoners and it doesn't look like Gaz plans to fix her any time soon.

For fast agile melee that isnt a shitty hero, you're looking at Daredevil, Nova, Psylocke, or X23. Also Wolverine, but for what you're asking about, X-23 is just a superior version of Wolverine.

Alright that's a lot of heroes I don't have I guess. I forgot how PTR works in this, you can access every hero as far as I recall, but it's only up at specific times right? Your account doesn't have to be "active" to get access? I'd probably head over there to check some stuff out first.

Got holosim grand master, every holosim achievement aside from hulkbuster (And kill a zillion supervillains in holosim), and finished every cleansweep to unlock crimefighter, all in one run. Collateral damage, which i needed for my last cleansweep (tombstone), came on wave 51 right after finishing grand master. Hells yeah.

BTW, if you're ever in a midtown wave and moleman isn't spawning, patrol around until you see the pack of 4 hostages he normally has and rescue them all. He should show back up in the next cycle. Same for Man Ape, but you go around looking for some random Jabari tribesmen.

Hi all,

With STASH 2.0, we've decided to upgrade everyone's Crafting Tabs to General Tabs and eliminate the idea of Crafting Tabs altogether in the future.

Crafting tabs will become less and less useful as we make tweaks to the Crafting system in the future (we're trying to automate crafting a little more and make it more intelligent, as well as remove some crafting element rarities), so we felt this was a good time to upgrade everyone.

Any Crafting Tabs that you own when STASH 2.0 launches (around end of August) will be automatically converted to General Tabs.

This is probably the closest to a STASH sale that we'll see anytime soon. (Buy Crafting tabs today, get General tabs converted automatically).
get em while their hot.

So, logged in and got my whole day devoured by this game. Definitely has that d3 MMO magic going. Cable is up to 29 and working that legendary quest like a cheap ho. Does rerolled have a guild?

Yup they are much cheaper than regular stash tabs. General is 500g while crafting is 300g.

Yeah the amount of STASH noise you get in the game is absurd as well basically forcing you into buying a bunch of space

Tbh it's really surprising they're not doing Stash sales to begin with, he even says that's the closest it'll ever be to a sale, meaning they really have no intention to do one. I'm pretty sure a good % of the money GGG makes with PoE is from the stash sales, and they have them like every month/week(I'm not sure which it was, but it's not always base stash sales, it's like upgraded stash sales or packs stash sales and stuff like that). Have 600points laying around on my account though so I guess I'll just log in and buy a couple, since it can't hurt.

You can't play MH very long without buying stash space. It's the one thing even the most hardcore pennypincher has to shell out for.

Quick guide for an easy run to holosim grandmaster for those of you who might be interested.

You need a fresh lvl 1 or to prestige someone to level 1

1) While Odin's Bounty (or midtown madness) is active, farm about a stash page worth of xp boxes, staying in that same midtown so they can all be opened at low level

2) Prestige someone with a maxxed legendary, put all the xp boxes in your inventory, and start a solo holosim

3) complete the first wave or two until you're high enough level to open the xp boxes, then open them all. Waves that require you to open a chest for completion will give you as much time as you want to get all your power points and new gear sorted.

4) congratulations, you can now cruise to wave 50 and beyond. This is also a great time to knock out the holosim portion of your cleansweeps, as well as the wave specific achievements for brotherhood, collateral, sisterhood, and sinister six.

5) Be super careful on the pyro wave, since killing him fails the holosim. He's normally super tough, but I don't know how much damage you'll do to him when you're so much higher level.

6) You can sit out the endless spawn waves by hiding in the north corner of the starting room.


You can probably do the same thing to cheese wave 50 of xdef.

Working on cosmic prestige for Vision.

I'm level 48 in MM. I get a costume drop. Uncanny Avengers Vision costume.

I'm wearing that exact costume.
