So the XP boost for DD, Luke, Iron Fist, and Punisher combined with the 200% weekend boost is actually more omega XP than today's 192/24 end of Omega event week. [Confirmed multiplicative by one of the devs.]

I have them all except DD (and unless there's something ungodly OP about him post-QoL I'd be wasting too much time to get him set up on Saturday) at 60 already. Half-ass geared but I could fix that easily enough today as long as they don't need anything more exotic than a Skrull Hammer or Uniform. Never got a well-rolled Portal or Jocasta to come up on the ARMOR vendor so that's out unless I buy one and reroll it.

Thoughts on which one of them is the strongest for farming either CMM or cosmic taskmaster/whatever? I'm guessing Iron Fist, but I'm going to be playing while marathoning DD season 2 so some 20-button-rotation Grandmaster spec is right out the fucking window.

Luke Cage has probably the best single target for CMM boss farming of any of those, he doesnt get around to quickly though for cosmic taskmaster. His rotation is also brain dead easy, a good choice if youll be watching something else while doing it.

Issue is that there are no double-orbs for this upcoming event, so will actually be much less. Only reason CMM is the "go-to" for omega farming is due to the double orb drops.

Also, where was this said at?

I'm not sure you mean by double orbs. Under the new Omega system, the current event is -24% cost per point. So that's effectively ~253% xp boost on the 8th day. This event is +200% stacked multiplicatively with +50%, so it should be a total of 450% server-side XP for those 4 heroes if they do the math how I'd expect. (Source:[Official] March Event Schedule - Page 7 - Marvel Heroes 2016third post down from Asros)

My current plan is to dick around with Iron Fist on Fri/Sat, then level up and get uniques for DD on Sun. Then on Monday I'm going to eat all the energy bars/potions/boosts I've been hoarding for years, which will give me around 6-8 hours of 800-900% [character sheet] XP. I've never used a single one of the freebies they've given out, so it's time to finally clear all that shit out of my stash.

I got IF through the trial pretty easily using a GM build that doesn't try to use combos in between sets of openers. I'm sure that lowers the dps a bit, but it's fine for what I'm doing. His squishiness is the real problem anyway.

Quick XP test.

Iron Fist (213% sheet XP) - XP orbs worth 421k.
Spider-Gwen (220% sheet XP) - XP orbs worth 287k.

So it is indeed an additional 50% multiplicative, and far better XP than 192/-24 was yesterday.

---------------------

I'm a little unclear on how those twin builds work for survivability. I saw another one that uses dragon/tiger and claims to be nigh-invincible in even the shittiest of CDR affixes. Is it just based around being invulnerable most of the time due to extreme cooldown reduction on the sig + SAS + 2s core? Or am I missing something else in there?

Good fortune thunder kick resetting the cooldown on seven armies means you spend around 50% of your time invulnerable, and then another 25% you're getting 50% damage reduction from channeling five hundred fists. It's the build I've used ever since I finally conceded that dedicated serpent is complete garbage.

You still die pretty frequently in CHT though.

So what's the deal with DD builds? I was expecting every non-Street Fighter build to use Mane+Brooch, but while most do use the Brooch only one posted so far uses a Mane. Is Mane really not that great for him, or are people just ignoring it because of its rarity/value? I was hoping to finally have someone to use mine on once I get him setup this weekend.

DD really needs some passive health regen or a small LoH in his kit (his slot 1 LoH doesn't count). Nearly every other melee hero has one of options available to them except him. I am basically using him and IF for the 50% boost and then once the event ends, he is going back on the shelf as he doesn't compare to most melee in terms of TTK and TTL.

Got him to 60 and messed around long enough to get a full set of uniques, and that was enough. Not really a fan of the combo point stuff, and IF is just more fun to play.

Red prestige Daredevil, movie scarlet witch costume, deadpool the kid costume and the last unique I needed for the armorer/the collector achievement/title that came from the blue box I purchased with the hand shit. Good day.

I want to hit 10k asap too, so that I never again have to go out of my way to pick up a fucking XP orb.

I know CMM and CICP are getting revamped to be like CHT soonT but still...pickup radius is infuriating in MH. Plus I'm a little concerned about what's going to happen when CMM stops dropping 90% of the shit and all of a sudden it takes like 50 times longer to level up mini-pets. I bought a bunch of sentinels from Genosha rep and am currently trying to get one of every possible stat combination I might ever need done before it becomes a nightmare to do it.

Tried to pump out some omegles this weekend but I hate patrol zones. Did about 800 farming cosmics with 5 stance iron fist before my will to live gave out. Shits so slow above the old cap.

Try farming CMM for 12+ hours on Fucking Daredevil. You look at him funny and he dies. His new play style after his small rework is good, but his survivability is laugh-worthy.

Don't know if I'll even do CMM today for boxes (to stash for future characters, usually have 5-7 tabs filled of Odin boxes or Midtown boxes). Just thinking of going back into CMM is making my cringe

jesus christ. So I found a really good insignia and I tossed it up on the forums. Was a bit of bidding, seemed like it had settled at 35gok, which I was reasonably happy with. Then yesterday there was some more bidding and it ended up at 56gok, which I was super happy with.

Today there was another round of bidding and now it's sitting at 100gok.
