Yep. I had invuln without a sense of touch as well. That has been done in various media also, but something like Superman/Hulk/Thor who laughs off most damage would accidentally mangle anyone they touched.
Flight without super speed? So incredibly tedious. Imagine a top speed of about the same as walking speed.
Or some sort of navigation instinct? It’s not like there are signposts up there, and national borders are rarely color coded.

Yeah, that combined with flight is pretty much Sam's shtick.
Imagine how grisly a super fast metal/stone/etc guy without sped up time senses would be though.
All it would take is a single miss and they'd go spinning off into a crowd....or their own teammates.
It'd be like a formula one car spiraling into the stands....urgh.
Super Speed requires an entire SUITE of secondary powers. You need one (or the right equipment) to be able to breathe at high speeds, to protect you from the effects of friction, to be able to perceive your surroundings and respond to changes in them, to prevent your body from tearing itself apart moving at those speeds, to prevent the impact of your feet against the ground from turning your lower legs into liver pudding...

Slow flight wouldn’t have much use for travel, but it would still be practical locally. Like Creative Mode Flight in Minecraft, you would be able to position yourself optimally in 3D space for whatever task your working on. It would be great for construction and similar activities.
It would also be a pretty silent way to move, since you’re only making direct contact with air, so it would be useful for stealth.

I remember when Heather Hudson as Vindicator used her flight ability to travel to the edge of the atmosphere and let the rotation of the Earth act almost like teleportation.
Even though they never mention it she must have some pretty sophisticated tech to allow her to know where to enter and exit the atmosphere to get to her intended destination.

Actually it'd probably be more useful than invisibility, how many people look up?
And more than that second story and above security is often a joke.....and even more importantly than that you wouldn't have to worry about getting murdered by every car, bike, person carrying something pointy, people throwing out hot liquids, construction equipment or anything else that avoids you unconsciously everyday of your life.

Father's Day Event today! I'll be playing Red Onslaught and Skadi for 150 each. I know another player is planning Loki, Agent of Asgard; Hela and Fenris Wolf.
Ironically, I purposely steered clear of Future Foundation for this event. It'd been too easy.
I'm planning on running DOOM at 150 with the Bloodaxe this weekend but I'm undecided on how to best support him. Latverian Engineers for beaucoup Perplex? Old School Doombots for Leadership? New School Doombots? Cypher for Outwit protection?

Suggestions?
You'll probably want some kind of TK piece, since DOOM can't be carried and bloodaxe is a heavy object (super strength sobs in a corner). Uncommon Valeria Richards is pretty good in that regards.
I also like uncommon Dr. Doom from F4 with his doombots ability.
If outwit is your concern, I think playing on a map with a lot of walls and blocking is preferable, as Cypher seems a bit clunky.

I think mobility for the 150-point DOOM is a big issue: From my PoV the biggest need is to try to cripple an opposing team before DOOM can be dog-piled. If DOOM is going to be equipped, it also means that you will 'burn' a turn to get it equipped.
Personally, I would consider Juston Seyfert, and make DOOM his Sentinel. I'm not a fan of the options for keywords, but being able to give DOOM a free move followed by a close attack (which if it hits, will reduce the target's defense by -1)... and then allow the POWER part of 4-Armed Monstrosity to be used... well, that seems NASTY.
