Thank you.

I am sure this would be more helpful if I had my 5*s champed but it gives me more hope that I am not too far away from being able to accomplish this.

I have heard that people are using 1* Juggy instead of Th4nos. Ramping would be easier but I feel like Th4nos would be faster with all the damage being dealt with his green. However, I imagine if you have a champed BRB you would be at least using BRB's green for damage then Juggy's green twice to recuperate the green.

My DOc Ock got really close to completion through his being a reward in a recent PVE. I'm only 25 shards away from champing him.

And now - he's a placement reward in War of Realms. I only need 25, so it's top 400 or bust!

That's awesome! Now it means you don't have to "waste" shards on him when you're opening LTs and they can go to a worthier cause.

As a side note, I LOVE when Apocalypse is boosted.

Apoc is sweet but Shang-Chi. Hollly moley. I'm glad I listened to Harpua and gave him 5 purple. Being able to line up a crit tile just right is amazing. With a few combo points and 14 purple, I can line up a double crit that'll one-shot any one toon

When you can't decide between "one-shot" and "one-hit."

My worst fear when I was at that point was that I would be at 497, only needing one more pull to finish some trash like Wasp, and that last pull gets a 500 shard bonus wasted on that toon.
Not all heroes wear capes.
I do, but we don't all wear them.

Got top 25 for War of the Realms. Doc Ock is now champed, leaving Wasp the last legacy 5* for me.

If I had more ISO I think I would be in 5* land now.

Why? Because when I play I mainly focus on PVE. For PVP I mostly get my 8-900 points and then I get fed up with teams that just suck away at my health packs or they take too long.

I have five 5*s that have 13+ covers; Kitty, Apocalypse, BRB, Colossus, and Wanda. However they would all need 511,000-ish ISO each to level them to champ. I have no idea how much ISO is needed to champ.

Either way. I am just looking to make PVE go faster.

The downside is that I have SO MANY 4*s that need to be champed.

Congratulations. I am sure getting that over and done with is such a magical feeling. Good luck on Wasp!


54 more 4*s to champ with 2.6million ISO

I say go for it.
I waited and waited to make the jump under the impression that I should make sure I had more champed 5*’s when I jumped.
The reality is that I wound up using a small handful of toons.
With 5Witch, Colossus, and Apoc you have the current meta. This will help you do better and get the ISO you need faster than you would make it staying where you are now.

I don't think there's really a "good" time to jump to 5* land. THe PVP world becomes much more of a slog, though PVE can be much more relaxing. I would say that if you have a team you feel comfortable can handle the challenge node, you may as well make the jump and get through SCL10 easier. Let PVP be what it is.

This just in (news to me anyway)... Echo feeds Cyclops

How does this team work together for PVE? or are you talking about PVP?

Yeah, I am not much into PVP placement anymore. Once I started champing my 4*s and max champing my 3*s PVP started to get more difficult. I just hope I can get top 50-100.

Not bad. I don't see the connection, but I 'll take it.

I believe he was referring to PVP. Elsewhere in this thread (I think, maybe the previous one) we've discussed our PVE teams and those are different.


Same. I still do PVP to get to 900 or 1000 points, depending on the reward. But it's very much a maybe/maybe-not.

I think we're at the point that "both characters are in MPQ" is all the connection we need.

Yes, like NBPerp said, the Colossus/5Witch is more of a PVP combo.

In level 10 PVP I can almost always hit the 1000 point mark. It often gets me t25, and rarely, if ever, does that fall to worse than t50.

Now, not having the powered up 5*’s (yet) champed may prove to be somewhat of a hurdle, but I *think* that Colossus/5Witch can carry you enough. That said, nothing would stop you from going back and forth between 9 and 10 based on who is powered up. It just always seemed to me that the rewards in 10 were significantly enough better overall that it was the best choice even when you do not have the optimal builds. In other words, a meh performance in 10, imo, gets you as good or better than a stellar performance in 9.
(And your opponents are the same regardless of which one you are in.)
Out of curiosity, do you shield out once you get there?



Yeah, that seems to be the case, which is needlessly annoying to me. Like, it should not bother me, especially not being a comics guy, but it is irritating.
It is similar to how in my head I want to see 3*,4*, 5*, etc equate to power levels.
