Marvel Heroes 2015 - pretty fun and exp boost in effect

[Kicksome]

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to let you know, I'm having a pretty good time 5 boxing Marvel Heroes. It's f2p. It's a lot deeper than Diablo 3, and more social. But it's harder to manage all the loot and see all the drops - and keep your chars perfectly in sync.

It's the 2nd anniversary of the game, so they might have a special promo starting on Friday 6/26/2015.

It was designed by the guy who made Diablo II.

They have incredible IP - i.e. Marvel Characters - there have to be close to 50 playable characters now.

New stuff is coming out all the time - new characters, team-ups, events every week etc...

60 is the max level, and I have about 4 teams at 60.

You can spend money to get boosts, unlock characters, buy team-ups, buy more bank space etc...

So I spent "G's" i.e. money to buy exp pots (That stop ticking down when you are in a "hub" so you don't get ripped off). I was able to level a team from 1-60 (max level) in a night after work with a bunch of boosts going - (4 hour boosts).

So it might be worth checking out for some of you how want a change. And of course it's really easy to setup in isboxer.

I'll try and post a video this week.

Very cool. Looking forward to that video. :)

Damn, it's one thing to say you are going to post a video, and another thing to actually do it.

Haha -- Well, you did say this week, so you have a few more days remaining.

As for anyone else who is interested in this game, multiboxing is most certainly allowed (http://i.imgur.com/XRLWD1Z.jpg). I realize the date in that ticket is 2 years old at this point, but if there had been a change there would have been numerous multiboxers talking about it on the ISBoxer MH sub-forum (http://isboxer.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=46).

Yea, very good game. But i start with different chars and it's difficult to do something in good way. I guess I'll recreate accounts in near future and make new team.

Not bad if we can see lvling up with potions from you :D
Good luck with video!

I started playing this again after seeing your post, and the addition of so many free heroes is amazing. I quit early because I was stuck with 2 or 3 heroes, and would get them at different times, etc.

My question: What heroes do we think are the easiest from a multibox perspective? I like Ironman for the no-targetting missiles, which you can stand in one spot and clear a room, and so far Jean Grey has been pretty amazing with her AOE, but her single target spell is awful, and hard to hit multiple enemies. Human torch was really fast to lvl 10 with his starting spiritless aoe being so cool. I'm not sure which is going to be great if I uncap them though, and lvl 10 isn't exactly a good indicator of what's to come at lvl 60 :)

Do other heroes have better "thoughtless" wave / room clear that I haven't seen? more abilities which bounce to targets (like cyclops and captain america?) or good spiritless aoe?

Anyone have a quick rundown on the pvp?

[Kicksome]

The easiest hero's are the summoners.

I asked in chat - what's the best summoner character - and a few people answered "Doom". Then I asked what's the best if you're lazy, and they said "Iceman".

Build is here: http://marvelheroes.info/build/10086/

You don't need all the exact items, and some take a long time to get, and it's still fun.

So I think you can get Iceman as a free char. He's really easy to play.

However, I'll post a video of my Dr. Doom setup soon. It's really, really faceroll and you get teleport to go through places super fast ala Diablo II teleporting.

I haven't tried the PVP at all - not sure many people do much pvp.

Squirrel Girl for life. You can't stop me.

Actually, TBH Squirrel Girl was EASILY the fastest to 10 I had out of 5 or 6 different toons I got to 10. She was SO funny to see peoples looks too, everyone follows you and says "wtf is this, are you stupid?"

[Kicksome]

If you're willing to buy Dr. Doom, I can't imagine anyone being better from a multiboxing standpoint. And I think overall people are saying he's way OP. So he might get nerfed. I just got him this week, got him to 60 that night.

This is the build I'm using: http://marvelheroes.info/build/18269/

I have about 4 groups leveled to 60. I died on them dozens of times leveling up... With Dr. Doom, I think I had 1 guy die one time before I hit 60. It's pretty crazy. You get tons of things to summon as well, so more than 1/2 of your damage is by the summons.

The teleport he gets is also cool, it's no cost, and you can use it as much as you want. It also almost always keeps your guys exactly together. So you don't even need to run at all, although I do.

Make sure you login this weekend, you get a free team-up - they usually cost about $10.

[Mokoi]

I have to say, I bought Doom x5 and I had the opposite experience you had, I have dies WAY more than any other toon so far getting to lvl 10. maybe it gets a lot better, but I find that the cooldown on your summons is only 15/30 seconds, so unless you split them 1/2 and 1/2 on different characters, i find that the fights with bosses last a lot longer than 15 seconds, and I am often left with no DPS or defense and die a lot... maybe it gets better? :)

[Kicksome]

Dr. Doom is insanely OP, maybe the first levels are tough, but once you get going, it's crazy. I have 6 groups at 60 now, and Doom is by far the best group - by a long shot. I've never used any skills on round robin or anything other than straight broadcasts on any of my groups, stuff dies so quick.

So hang in there and keep leveling, it gets a lot more fun.

I'll keep any eye out for you in game also now that I have your info.

When I did the voice over to this, one of my old friend was over - Mike W. - who when we PvP vs each other, I had to throw games so he would still play with me - back on the original Warcraft - over modem.

So I was messing around and said I'm going to make it sound exactly like how you would do this voice over of the game - knowing almost nothing about it. I think I was pretty spot on, he doesn't quite agree on all points.

Now it makes sense why you sounded different than I remember. Some random people are going to stumble upon that and think you're incredibly high, and then all multiboxers from here on forward in Marvel Heroes 2015 will be branded as stoners. :)

When they see how much money I spent on their game , I think they'll upgrade that to drug dealer ;)

Haha -- The mega pack is on sale for only $130 which saves you $350 if you buy them on all five accounts. :)

[Mokoi]

third time watching it, and i crack up at "he aint nothing compared to that white girl" HAHAHA i love it.

It's almost like I would be giving away money if I didn't take advantage of that, which I did.

[Hohoz]

Very good stuff sir ... might give this game a go!

[woloss]

Leveling after 40 take a long time for me... And i can say that I'm a ["]lucky["] man. I have ~60 Cube Shard and spent them on Fortune Card. 3 chars (5x rare drop potions + visual), 1 char (2x drop potions + 3x exp potions), one 1 char (1x drop potion + 4x exp potions). Ahh...

I saw some guides, i guess i'd lvl up Cyclope for 50% exp Synergy
