I’d like to be able to do a new character ranking poll within the next month. With 115 characters now in the game, I’m hoping some of the community members would be willing to help out with write ups for all of the characters. If you would like to help, just pick a character and add your forum name to this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UVdHLtL4ytKRERQJX6QwSIDTF-PGmspf36n1m7ZHGk4/edit?usp=sharing
Please try to stick to characters that you have actual experience with, and try to pick ones that haven’t already been taken. You can PM your write ups to me before the actual rankings are released.
A short blurb, followed discussion of powers, pros/cons, recommended build(s), and good partners. See the last ranking for examples, although I wasn’t able to get through many of them.
For a record here, since I messaged directly: I’m doing Star-Lord, Scarlet Witch, and Vision.
Can I suggest that, along with the info, everyone link directly to the Wikia page relative to the character? Here’s the full character list. Each character page has a full description of abilities, most (if not all) of the AP damage per level, and sometimes, like this time, a poll on what’s the most popular build.
I’ve updated the spreadsheet so that anyone who clicks the link should be able to edit it directly. I’ve added everyone who has already posted. Thanks again!
I’ve got my 1/5/2 Black Bolt up to 300 and have been playing him extensively against seeds and weaker teams - I’m beginning to get a grasp on his strengths and weaknesses. If no one with a “real” BB wants him, I can definitely do a write up (my impression - a good general accelerator and constant damage dealer, but probably a bit weak on defense do the computer not prioritizing charge tiles.)
I can handle pretty much anyone on the 4* level or below that is older than War Machine. You want I should put myself down on a few?
Wouldn’t we want to link to the forum Character discussion thread instead? Personally, I avoid the Wikia pages because the ads slow my PC to a crawl. The forum character threads give you all the information you’re referring to, aside from the AP damage at all levels.
If we want to link to the forum pages instead, the best resource is the Characters and Skills Compendium 2: Technopatic Boogaloo. It has links to every character discussion thread and displays their max tile damage values, the AP costs for each of their powers, and shows their ranking in the last forum poll (Feb. 2015).
Oh, and in the sign-ups for characters, I realized I should also really take on my in-game namesakes, so I put myself down on the spreadsheet for Blade (Daywalker) and Blade (Modern).
I was basically suggesting it as an additional resource to ebolamonkey’s forum thread links (which s/he did in the last two rankings for most of the characters) because it shows AP damage per level, which is useful for people who want to level the characters as teams (rather than Champing them one-by-one). That’s not clear in my post, but, yeah, it’d be an addition instead of an alternative.
… Though maybe with the warning the wikia pages are slow thanks to ads. Useful pages, yes. Slow af, that too.
Done with SL, SW, and Vision so I’m claiming Ant-Man and 3★ Luke Cage (Hero For Hire), as well as Invisible Woman (once her buff comes out in a few days).
