Why red?

Also, after going through a bunch of heroes trying to find one I like enough to stick with I think I've settled on Spider-man. (Yeah, I know, I should have just listened to what you said the first time I asked. I've always hated the character in comics/movies/etc. though.) I have like 1500 omega and gain somewhere around 100 on a good day, hopefully more this weekend with the 229% boost running. Am I correct in thinking that I should buy a L80 shield for now and just eat the 200 odin tax when I have enough omega to swap to an axe and still survive? Right now I'm using a L70 Gungnir, but I want to switch ASAP so I can be getting the XP for the new one while we're boosted.
Level 80 shield is actually seen as worthwhile for spiderman. The DPS loss is minimal with how dodge scales damage on his skills while you gain a lot of survivability.

Yeah, I went ahead and got the shield yesterday. Seems to be working well, though I'm not messing with DR this weekend since for some retarded reason there's no ARMOR drives to be had there at all. Might try some cMM or cICP though.

Took barely over an hour to level it to max too, thx bonus. Got about 1200 drives too, so that isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be either. The occasional +50 'quest' helps a lot.

Yeah, but TP'ing to the boss room is the vast majority of my TM clear time anyway, and wouldn't it gut the xp on 229% weekend? Might be worth switching come Tuesday, but for now I'm trying to get to 2500+ Omega before the event ends.

Drives shouldn't be a problem either way if I can get 1200 or so a day just doing my normal routine. I wasn't aware of the target thing you pick up to go kill a specific boss for 50 bonus drives when I asked yesterday, but I'd say about 40% of my drives come from those. Just need enough to buy 3-4 recipes, summoner artifact, Nano-Poison, Portal's slot2, and some runes. 5000 is a nice round number since it's an extra free upgrade token too. I guess it's probably worth spending leftovers gambling on 1k defense cores? All I have now is a shitty 3k/400/67 spirit one.

Well if you can clear cosmic fast enough then yeah might as well do cosmic. I sometimes forget not everyone has maxxed omegas.

Next time I catch you online I'll give you a bifecta. Also don't be in a huge rush to buy stuff from the vendor, make sure you get the most use you can out of the free rerolls. I have a perfect grenade, 2 999 grenades, and several perfect nano-poisons.

Yep, I'm rerolling the vendor until I get something really good. Haven't been able to buy a single item yet. Hell, I haven't even had Portal's Armor come up with 2/2/2 to the stats, let alone roll the other shit well. Took like 4 days to buy my X-Men Uniform from DR too, RNGesus just hates me.

Thanks for the reminder on grenade. I forgot about it being BIS for some heroes, guess I need to start checking that as well.

Edit: Wow, the cosmic trial was a complete joke on Spider-man. I was never able to get Red Skull down in time when I tried it on SW. Had like 2 minutes left on Spidey.

Just gambled an armored intfecta AA. Was kinda pissed, then I realized Ultron will almost assuredly have a summoning spec.


awwwwww yeah.

cMM and cICP loot is fucking ridiculous. Not sure which annoys me more, having my inventory filled up after 2-3 events tops so I have to skip the next one sorting through the shit, or the orb pickup radius that is like 1/3 of what D3's is (which I mention because D3 is routinely criticized for its pickup radius being retardedly short). There's something wrong when I find myself just going back to cosmic TM to farm omegas without the headache.

Edit: Bitching about micromanagement aside, I got about 225 omega in an hour this morning with 330% XP. That Throg pet was a godsend for inventory management; I pissed away almost all my uniques I was saving for dupe turn-ins on getting +3 Fighting rolled onto it, and now I have a backup pet to try to roll 3 Int onto. (I know I can prestige and buy pets, but I don't feel like prestiging when I still have 7 more heroes to level to 60 just to get to 200%.)

Anyone have a clue what this Skrull Flag is worth:

I got a SWGN (and a trifecta off the same kill) today finally so I don't need it anymore. At least not as much as I need a Surtur rune and some other stuff to make up the difference. Don't want to get ripped off in trade because I don't know how much the difference is though.

So it might be possible to get a [shitty] UEB-M and a Surtur for it, or would that get me laughed at?

I am still enjoying this well enough and not playing anything else.

I got Deadpool to 60 with some limited play time this weekend. I also got Cable to 25 in an hour.

I have Ant-Man to level that I think will be fun. So far all 50+ omega points I have are just in +xp which might be a waste but I figured it was good to get more points that way.

I have a low roll mueb that I'd include as part of a trade for it, but I don't have any surturs. MUEB+Surtur would be roughly equal in value though.

Fragment of Twilight is pretty much the last thing I need for Spider-Man, besides the non-tradeable stuff like medallion and a Demonblood. That's why I really want the rune. If you're interested in it, do you maybe know anyone you could snag a surtur from?

Unrelated question, but could you take a look at my uniques and tell me if you think any/all of them are worth putting ARMOR/Dodge enchants and a challenge bonus on?

You'll need to right click and view image since the forum squishes anything large.

I have a hard time judging what's "good enough" other than by noticing that I've looted at least 50 of each slot since the last time I replaced any of them. Slot1 won't matter if I make a Fragment, but I included the two I have because they're hard to choose between (I assume the one with less damage is better because of the other stats). I just don't want to waste AR or Serpent runes if I can help it, and I really don't want to replace anything with +1 fighting.

Slot 1 is my only 66 upgrade so far. I'll be buying slot 4 next since the spreadsheet I've been using claims it's by far the biggest dps gain.

Any place that has a list of the rare shit to hang on to/sell? Trying to learn some of the things I never really got the hang of back when I used to play, which mainly consists of endgame gearing/activities.

Only thing i see is that the Superior Clawed Gloves have a pretty low CDR/BDR proc value. My pair are 1100+ CDR/BDR, so I'd keep looking for ones that have higher value there - it sucks that there's no indication of how high that roll can be, since the alt-modifier just shows the percent chance to proc.

I just played the "are they good enough for challenge bonus" game myself, and did it for 3 of mine. Slot 2 and 4 I still want to find better.

They are tied to a % roll somewhere else. usually an innate stat like the damage resistance, which i think it is for the gloves so his roll is low due to the 31%.
